[Surely he hadn't. He and Vincent would have fussed, or at least nudged him back into bed anyway, or at least to be lying down on some soft, plush surface and resting.]
I know you didn't. But you are your father's son. You don't always do the things that you should if you think you can get away from it, even if they're good for you.
[Their fussing is part of why he's behaved himself. Without them, people who care, he might very well have spoiled the healing patch of skin. He would have gotten very sick even before then if Undertaker hadn't been here and cared.
He can't even argue anything he says either. He did exactly the same thing when he'd been investigating the circus, resting the bare minimum he had to before going to Kelvin's estate.]
Good thing I have you and father close then, to keep me in line. [He gives the man a humored smile.]
[They certainly can't have that, even if the medical advancements of this world blew his mind. There were people he would hope not to see all of this tested on.]
You could say that. All the better to make sure you finish growing nice and healthy in all the ways you can.

I'm sure that won't be a problem. You and several others are always looking after me, and there's no reason here for me to die anytime soon.

What about at all?

Everyone dies someday.

It's not as bad as you think. What's that look about?
no subject
At least you'll have a cozy house to yourself then, no one taking up half the bed.
no subject
Is that all? I can always help that along if I really want the bed to myself.
no subject
You could. You could shove me out of bed or tell me off. Plenty of options with me.
no subject
I could also reap you.
no subject
You could... you haven't though.
no subject
Could have, but have no reason to. You're far more amusing as you are.
no subject
I'll have to find a book of jokes to keep you laughing.
