Then it can't get any worse! I mean, there are things worse than dying. But if dying's the only problem, you already know all about that!

[ a beat ]

Wow, you are not cheering up at all, are you.

[He rubs his forehead] I dunno, I was kinda still glad to be alive, especially since I've lost my visions and everything like that. But whatever. Okay. I'm going to die again.

[aliveandticking]

I didn't say you were going to die! That just seemed to be what you were concerned about.

[thekidsare0kay]

[Now he's just confused] But you said I was doomed.

[aliveandticking]

It's complicated. And we don't have to worry about it right now anyway!

[Action]

[thekidsare0kay]

Of course it is. [He sighs, but gives her a wry smile] I'll try not to worry, then.

[aliveandticking]

You really have cheered up, you know. It's nice!

[thekidsare0kay]

I have? [He's honestly startled, but he smiles a little] I guess I have. It's weird.

[aliveandticking]

I don't think you'd have said you'd try not to worry, before. Worrying was your favorite thing! [ she pokes him in the cheek, teasingly ]

Re: [Action]

[thekidsare0kay]

[He snorts and pokes her back, getting her shoulder] I never liked worrying. I just couldn't help doing it all the time!

[Action]

[aliveandticking]

[ she'll graciously pretend that was what he intended to poke ] You mean you even worried about worrying?

[ yeah aradia is making full use of her recovered ability to tease ]

Re: [Action]

[thekidsare0kay]

Sometimes. [He grumbles at her, but can't help but smile] What's wrong with worrying about worrying?

[Action]

[aliveandticking]

That is just way too much worrying! You wouldn't have time in the night for anything else. Especially when you start worrying about worrying about worrying. [ she leans back against the couch, surveying the room ] I think a break will be nice.

Re: [Action]

[thekidsare0kay]

[Snickering] Well what did you think I spent all my free time on?

I guess we all kinda need a break.
