[He really didn't move around too much when he was left alone though. His back had hurt too much and he's been so tired. Any papers he needed to fill out, he grabbed and then climbed back into bed.
There's a tiny, halfhearted grumble.]
I didn't do anything to upset it healing... I was too tired.
[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.

Date: 2018-01-17 06:17 am (UTC)You could. You could shove me out of bed or tell me off. Plenty of options with me.
