[LOOK WHO'S OUT OF THE CLINIC AT LONG LAST]

Hey, so guys? I totally do not recommend eating wild berries. Tasty though they look, gentle on your stomach they are not. Oh, man. It was like being on the test team program all over again. Ship going backward sand forwards, up and down, side to si--

[He goes a little green and cups his mouth. When he speaks again he sounds strained.] Alright, okay, cool. So enough of that. That is officially all of that that's gonna happen.

So, yeah. No berries. Bad plan. Don't do it.

I'm trying to move away from "I'm fine."

Because you guys all seem like you have a problem with that one.

[im_a_leg]

[Hunk actually laughed at that. Because.. c'mon, Shiro.]

Cause it means the same thing, man! You really gotta up your self care regimen. It's okay to step back some days and go "You know what? I'm gonna take a nap today. Even if Darin punches a hole in the roof. Because naps are important."

Though it's real good that you're trying. [Hunk is proud of you, dad.]

[shiro2hero]

That's... exactly what I was trying to do when he blew a hole in the roof.

Cross my heart, swear on the Black Lion.

[im_a_leg]

[He's still just chuckling because of course that's what happened.]

Sounds about right. Kinda how it works, yeah?

You been eating alright at least? Except when holes happen anyway.

[shiro2hero]

We have all nearby takeout places on speed dial.

So yeah.

[im_a_leg]

Oh man. How long since you guys actually ate like .. non take-out food?

[He thinks he knows the answer to this.]

[shiro2hero]

Since...



A long time, man. Let's just. Put it that way.

[im_a_leg]

.. okay so, I'm cooking tonight. Obviously.

[A pause]

We don't have any food in the fridge at the house, do we?

[shiro2hero]

You don't have to. Not right away. Take some time to get your bearings and everything.

... we have leftovers.

[im_a_leg]

Dude, are you kidding me? Grocery shopping is orienting myself.

[shiro2hero]

I should have known.

... But I'm serious, Hunk. If you still need to take it easy, do it. Please.

[im_a_leg]

Heh. Thanks, but I'm cool.

You know what we oughta do though? Build a hammock. So you can sit in it.

[shiro2hero]

... what?

Why?

[im_a_leg]

You ever seen a hammock hanging up between two trees on the beach? The smell of the sea on the breeze that blows by, a cool drink in your hand, the sound of the waves lapping at the sand...

[shiro2hero]

Well, yeah I've seen it.

But what does that have to do with you being all right?

[im_a_leg]

Huh? Nothing, just thought it'd be cool to relax in one.

[shiro2hero]

Hey, as long as you want it, buddy.
