Okay. I just... feel super useless since the only way for you to get better is to just wait.

[And Peter was not the best at waiting. He was categorically closer to "the worst" when it came to waiting.]

[wolf_blood]

You're not ever useless. I'd rather you stay here than have a non hospital breakfast.

But. They are going to give me probably a whole packet of instructions when I leave, what to do with the bandage, dosages, restrictions. If it'll make you feel better, you can be 100% in charge of that.

[And she would even do her best to actually follow all those instructions, even the restrictions.]

[whateveraspidercan]

Oh, I can definitely help with all that stuff.

[If for no other reason that he was maybe one of the few people that could convince her to follow the majority of the restrictions. He might have to get creative with incentives but he knew that ultimately she wanted to get better as fast as possible.]

I'm going to be the best nurse you've ever had.

[wolf_blood]

Is that going to help or make you worry more?

[Oh, there was no maybe about that. Even if she were planning on telling more people about this injury. He was also about the only person that she could stand having fuss over her.]

Just keep being you.

[whateveraspidercan]

No it'll help because I'll know you're taking care of yourself.

[Because Peter was pretty sure he could fuss over her without making it seem like he was fussing over her. He liked doing things for her and this was just an extension of that. Let her ride his face for an extended period of time, make sure her knife wound was taking care of... tomato tomahto.]

I can do that. It's pretty easy around you.

[wolf_blood]

Alright. It's all you, Nurse Peter.

[That was how she thought about it, to make it easier, too - it was just Peter being Peter, cause he liked taking care of people. Of her. Made enough of a difference to shut up that particular voice in her head.]

I hope so. I want it to be the easiest thing.

...I think I'm a little bit stoned, now.

[whateveraspidercan]

Oh you're definitely stoned.

[Even if he couldn't see her dilated pupils Peter knew her well enough to know when she was just slightly off with things.]

Bedtime soon for you I think.

[wolf_blood]

Am I being weird? I mean for me. Do you think there's someone out there weird enough that when or if they got stoned, they would just act normal?

[She was already very glad she had managed to talk Sansa out of coming by, and he was the only one who'd witness this. Not that she minded being stoned, exactly, but it hadn't been her decision.]

Mm, fine. Soon but not yet. I was supposed to ask you something.

[whateveraspidercan]

Not weird just different. I don't think anyone that didn't know you would be able to tell that anything was too off.

[Peter knew how much Arya liked to be in control of things though, even if that meant being in control of when she wasn't in control.]

What were you supposed to ask me?

[wolf_blood]

Hmm. Alright.

[She wasn't sure that actually made her feel much better about it, but it didn't really matter.]

Can't remember. Maybe I already did.

[whateveraspidercan]

S'okay, if it's important you'll remember it.

[Peter kissed the top of her head again, just because he could.]

Glad you're mostly okay.

[wolf_blood]

Hmm, hopefully. You like doing that, don't you?

[At some point in that sentence she had closed her eyes without realizing it, and she didn't bother reopening them.]

I'm still sorry I worried you. Am worrying you. Both.

[whateveraspidercan]

Yeah because I can kiss you and hold at the same time.

[Because really that was the dream right there, kissing and holding Arya.]

And it's okay. I'm glad you shared this with me so I can worry about it.

[wolf_blood]

You kiss and hold me at the same time all the time.

[Well, it was easy for him to be living the dream, then.]

I did consider not mentioning it. Really really briefly cause obviously that's stupid but it's my default with anything on this level of freaking people out. So I'm sorry for that, too.

[whateveraspidercan]

I know it's pretty great, huh?

[And he did it again, just because he could, only this time he tilted her head up so he could kiss her lips.]

Well I'm glad you overrode your instincts and told me.

[wolf_blood]

It's really, really great.

[That move was pretty great, too, she approved. It was certainly easier to pretend she was somewhere else when he was kissing her.]

Yeah, I'm glad too.

[whateveraspidercan]

Just let me know when you’re tired. I bet you’re gonna crash soon.

[wolf_blood]

I think I've maybe been tired for ever. I'll sleep. [She closed her eyes again, nuzzled back into his neck.] You're comfortable?

[whateveraspidercan]

Yeah I've got my girl in my arms. That's always comfortable. You just go to sleep, okay? I'll be here.
