Three. [he repeats it a little weakly. He thought it was just twice . . . ]

. . . [he huffs out a tired noise] You really should rest, but I know that's not so easy.

I'm a shitty distraction, but I can try.

[noarchitact]

[ swallows thickly; the subtle hesitation a testament to his getting choked up again. ] ...y- yeah. Three.

I know, but I... can't. I feel like I'm buzzing. I can't explain it, but [ he shakes his head, the cube mimicking the action. ] it's almost like if I stop... I'm just going to... pop.

Did you have something in mind?

[leonheartedly]

[he winces a little apologetically] Sorry.

But - no, trust me, I know exactly what you're talking about. I've felt like that before.

[it's how he feels now, but he isn't going to say that]

You could tell me about the projects you have going? Did you ever take apart that arcade cabinet?

I was going to joke about taking my shirt off but I don't know if you want to be teased about that or not.

I'm almost finished with the garden at the back of Bluebell. And, no, I never did. Maybe I'll go do that. It'll be a big project and one that'll likely hold my attention fo- [ leon's going to hear him sputter and nearly CHOKE. ]

I... I don't mind being teased. [ because you're very handsome leon. ]

[look, he said he was a shitty distraction, he just didn't say what kind of shitty.

(it's the little shit kind. Sometimes he's a little shit)

He huffs a quiet laugh at the reaction] Good to know.

I'll have to come see the garden when I can. But the arcade cabinet would keep you busy for sure, especially if it's an older model.

[noarchitact]

[ sometimes he's a little shit. ]

Do you know anything about that stuff,
because maybe you could help me?

[leonheartedly]

I know a bit about electronics, I mess with them every now and then when I'm working. I'd have to see what's in there.

But I'd like to help? If I can, anyway.

[noarchitact]

Do you want to meet up at the arcade then?

It can wait if you wanted to stay in? I... I get it. This whole bomb thing has everybody... I'd get it. It's not that important.

[leonheartedly]

I—yeah, it should wait until this is over. [he winces a little, apologetic] If it happened by accident - I can't do that to someone.

But after - I promise.

[noarchitact]

…alright.

Let me know when or, Ah. I might just… hear it.

[leonheartedly]

[he winces again]

Fuck, I hope not.

[noarchitact]

[ he hopes not too. ]

I'll see you around.

[leonheartedly]

Mm . . . I'll call when it's - done. See you around.
