... I guess it's too soon for that talk?
[ the way thorns can't tell if elysium is just shy or if he just hates his relationship? well, it is more likely that he just doesn't want to talk about it to thorns specifically? that makes sense. it's probably awkward.
it's hard to be a good bro. ]

[ everything comes back to him slowly, including the dull ache in his other palm. he releases thorns' hand, lifts his own, and flexes his fingers as he stares at it blankly. the ache flares through his palm like fire, forcing a wince. ]
That bad, huh…
[ it should be pretty safe to say he doesn't remember much. the only thought that drifts through at that is a vague wonder: will they even be capable of holding a wedding at all? ]

Mm. They're likely going to return soon to resume questioning.
[ thorns does not think they are going to attempt elysium again after what just happened, or at least not immediately. if anything they may try to suggest that he goes in for psychological review to check for any trauma... ]
You were hallucinating, I think.

[ thorns you are killing him. ]
Don't you mean it the other way around? You'd have to find someone you could actually tolerate for more than five minutes at a time.
[ his pat turns into a pinch. ]
Besides, I'd hope you'd want more than just tolerance. I'm not letting you settle for that.

[ the last word could have been anything, wow.
but thorns will eventually get up and follow after him like a puppy. mostly because people started asking him if he was seeing anyone since they now believe elysium is dating someone else. this tangled web they weave. ]

[ yeah this is how he got rejected last time so he needs to bring himself back to reality by drinking. clearly.
stupid!!!!!!!! just because he's forced his way into thorns' life, it doesn't mean that's the only way. there will be someone thorns meets and falls madly in love with at first sight and get married to and leave elysium alone in his apartment that's too big for one person in which elysium will have to give a speech for, and thorns is just in time to witness elysium down two shots before he's like. oh. he was followed.
thorns is like a duck… being imprinted on does not mean he's special. well, it does mean he's special, just not in the way he'd want to be. he hands him another drink before he can say anything and then scurries back to their table like a rat. this is how he becomes an alcoholic. ]

[ he's doomed enough in the ten minutes he's been awake that he's of mind that if he needs to play god again (likely), he'll go back way before this point anyway. there is also the growing curiosity of how thorns would respond.
so it's a yes? but also no. their conversation about collars…
… ]
You could always try me.

[ help
thorns watches elysium immediately run away after he gets there, and he realizes that it is him who is being avoided. bringing up kitten really must have been the wrong move... maybe the relationship is on the rocks and elysium is too embarrassed to admit it so soon after he told thorns about it?
he drinks this with the bartender as company and then returns to the table. he gives elysium the space he needs. ]

[ he will stop when it stops being convenient. ]
She probed through my memories when I wouldn't talk. I put up quite the fight until I didn't.
[ then, more quietly in iberian: ]
I can't afford for her to go any deeper than she has. You get what I mean, right?

[ … he immediately feels lonely from this distance. why is thorns sitting x cm further from him. this may or may not be the shots starting to kick in.
he goes back to socialising as usual but he slides his plate until it touches thorns'. it's the last of his cabbage. bribery. ]

[ well, that's a problem.
thorns doesn't say anything right away, instead reaching over to grab onto the hand that was injured. his fingers gently stroke over where elysium stabbed himself as he responds back in their shared language. ]
We have to tell them something that they'd accept.
[ the problem now is that even if they do just leave, rhodes likely won't be as willing to let them have a peaceful honeymoon as they would have before. this is kind of the sort of breakthrough that can completely change how the world works, and here the two of them are running around trying to fix their relationship problems with it. ]
