I'll be fine. [ Which means he currently isn't fine, but Aventurine is comfy to lean against and soothes at least his general malaise. ] I would rather you not leave. Your presence is more soothing than any pain medication would be.
...not that I would trust medication picked up off the ground in this filthy place.
Heh. [ he can't help but to snort. ] It might still be good... you never know. [ but he'll stick around, especially if his presence seems to be helping. he's not sure whether he's being sarcastic or not, but he's going to choose to believe that, no, he's not. ] ...want to share all your findings? Or do you want to talk about something else?
[ He's not capable of sarcasm right now, unfortunately for him. But Aventurine can believe what he wants to believe!! ] You may be the type of person to eat floor aspirin, but I'm not.
[ He pauses. His findings, right... those. ]
...
I would like to lay my head in your lap, and then surely my thoughts will be clear enough to discuss my findings.
I had no idea the good doctor would suffer because he's too stubborn to eat floor aspirin.
But, sure, that's fine. Come here. Lay down. [ he spreads his legs and tries to guide ratio in between them. he leans back, lounging - his fingers threading through his hair once he's in place. ] Do you think it was worth it?
[ He lays his head down, closing his eyes and enjoying the sensation of Aventurine's hands petting through his hair. ] I suffer with purpose.
...it was worth it. If I'm to fully research what death is like in this realm, I needed to experience it. The data is invaluable. This unpleasant feeling surely won't last long enough to affect me beyond a night.
