Drugged up Yu is surprisingly less psychotic than anticipated. Much more .. well, cute, really.
He’d expected some measure of tension in the other man, some emergence of the past haunted by medical experimentation, and he’s sure that’s still a factor, but rather than being presented with the brunt of that resentment, he’s extended a branch of fragile trust.
You were always alone, weren’t you? he thinks, when they put you under. ]
Yeah, I guess that works.
[ If what he needs is not to be alone, Lavi can bear it for now--it’s hardly as if he can’t lift Yu’s weight once the man departs this world of the wakeful.
(Certainly that’s his motivation; there’s no part of him that finds this arrangement as endearing as it is startling comfortable.
Not, at least, any part he’s willing to acknowledge.)
Sighing at great and exaggerated length, he squirms a bit more to extend his reach to the bedside, pulls those slips of paper together to idle his mind while he waits for Yu to fully submerge. ]
