► Go from there!

chuu okay!!

[ Sigh! Now that the medicine is just a bad taste in her mouth, what she said to John before is starting to be one too. Pats a spot on the bed next to her- over the covers, don't get any ideas! ]

Sorry. That was shitty of me before, wasn't it?

chuuchuu

[ofbreath]

[He sort of grumps a little bit at her, and stays right where he is.]

You're sick. I'll get over it.

nuzzzlle

[fuckincakewake]

[ Ouch. Looks away from John. Neglect and passive aggression she's used to,but disappointment is a whole new, uncomfortable set of feelings Roxy isn't familiar with. Feels shitty too. ]

And I know you're not Jake and Janey. You just look like them, that's all.

[ofbreath]

And you look like Rose's mom. That doesn't mean I'm calling you Ms. Lalonde.

And I'm not upset about you saying I look like your friends or anything, it's.

...look, just drop it, okay?

[fuckincakewake]

[ Sinks down against the blankets, trying to pull them around her like a solid fortress to block out that weird look on John's face. Nope, not gonna look at it. ]

Yeah, sure. Sorry.

[ofbreath]

[The 'weird look' stays for another handful of seconds before he moves forward, reaching out to slip his hand under her hair and check her temperature against his own.]

...you're still pretty warm. The Nyquil should help, and it'll help you sleep. Do you want anything else...?

[fuckincakewake]

[ Starts at the contact, but quickly tries to play it off that that didn't just happen. Sulky little expression, he's right, she is feeling like maybe sleep is a possibility in the near future. Cuddles down under the blankets. ]

To be not sick, I guess?

[ofbreath]

[He smiles a little bit at her.]

Then rest, and let me make you some soup to eat when you wake up.

[fuckincakewake]

[ Stomach growls in response. That actually would be pretty nice. Flushed pink (well at least she's got some color to her), tiny nod. ]

Um. Thanks.

[ofbreath]

[He smiles a bit more.]

...yeah. Just no more jokes about dying.

[fuckincakewake]

[ Little grin back. ]

I've got WAY better jokes than that when my brain's not boiling.

[ Yawn. ]

[ofbreath]

Good. Now take a nap, and I'm gonna go make you some soup. You like chicken noodle?

[fuckincakewake]

[ Snuggles back down against the blankets, sleepy nod. ]

Who doesn't like chicken noodle?? Only like.. stupid Batterwitch drones wouldn't like that junk.

[ofbreath]

Okay good. I make a mean chicken noodle soup. You rest, and I'll be back with that in a little while, okay?

[fuckincakewake]

[ Vague noise she heard him, but whether or not she is awake enough to understand him is totally up in the air. Eyes closed. ]

[ofbreath]

[And he's off to make soup! He can return with that if you want to keep threading this, or we can stop here. :>]
