fine. not so bad as you anyway

stitches seem to be behaving so far

[halosuit]

Make sure you keep them clean, yeah?

[madeover]

doing my best. it's a bit awkward but i'm managing.

[halosuit]

If either of us get an infection we'll be out of the field for twice as long.

[madeover]

please save the lecture, i'll be fine. i'm cleaning it! even though it hurts like a mother.

[halosuit]

It wasn't a lecture, just a reminder.

( and because she remembers everything, forget that traumatic amnesia the doctors were throwing about. )

You stopped me from bleeding out on that lawn, let me worry about you getting sick, alright?

[madeover]

[Eggsy wishes that Roxy didn't remember it. It had been a traumatizing experience for both of them and it would probably be easier on her if she'd just blacked out and woken up in a hospital bed -- in a lot of pain but without that memory of thinking she was absolutely going to die.]

fine fine

i know i've said this a hundred times already but i am so glad you're alive

[halosuit]

You've no one to thank for that but yourself.

( and really, speaking of thanks — )

Thank you, Eggsy. For ( saving my life ) not wanting to relay those messages to my family.

[madeover]

have you told them yourself yet?

[Because it can be too easy to go back on those things, once the immediate danger has passed. But Eggsy thinks that Roxy would do good to say all that to them.]

[halosuit]

No. I would prefer not to have that conversation when I still look like death.

[madeover]

just make sure you do, okay?

[In their line of work, Eggsy doesn't think he could ever tell his mum and Daisy he loves them enough times.]

[halosuit]

Yes, of course.

( loosely translated into nah mate, keeping that shit locked down )

[madeover]

i'm your best friend, roxy, the dismissive thing ain't gonna work with me

[halosuit]

Eggsy, I very much appreciate your concern. But like you've said, I'm high as a kite and not really in a state to think about this right now. How about we talk about family later.

[madeover]

fair enough

you should get some sleep anyway, those pain pills have got to be kicking in by now

[halosuit]

They are.

But I'll text you tomorrow too, alright?

( to pester him about keeping his wounds clean. )

[madeover]

you better.

[So that he can continue to pester her about her parents.]

[halosuit]

Goodnight, Eggsy.

whoops ignore how i accidentally subscribed to you

[madeover]

goodnight roxy
