... I can still do the gym. They recommended I get one to stay fit for it anyway.
[ it's said almost like he is trying to reassure elysium that he is not ditching him. see!! elysium is doing him a huge favor!!!
he stares at his food and then at elysium's like he is comparing the two. ]

[ they were on the run and didn't have the chance to grab their papers, their circumstances are so tragic. they'll just have to get married a second time to make up for the first time that totally happened.
but what should have taken only a few minutes drags on for half an hour. he sniffles. ]
Does it feel like everything's out?
[ equates being gentle to being slow. he was soooo gentle. ]

Oh, good. I usually do mornings on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. We can keep each other accountable.
[ he says this so cheerily. too cheerily. thorns will never know peace again when his roommate is a freak who works out at the crack of dawn. but, it is funny that elysium's the one with abandonment issues now despite being the one to abandon him first… it is a combination of thinking thorns totally has the right to but also how dare he even think of escaping this sticky trap of friendship now that they've re-established it? he can't permit it.
as such, he visibly eases when thorns agrees… internally celebrating this w. yippee. it takes a bit for him to notice his staring. ]
… Something you don't like?
[ insanely has a mental catalogue of his likes and dislikes. this can't be right ]

[ the way thorns doesn't want to criticize this either. but this isn't because he's being nice, but because he thinks it might make elysium's brain combust and he won't know how to proceed from there. it might be better to physically show him the example later.
he just gives him another kiss. ]
Yeah. Good job.
he just gives him another kiss. ]
Yeah. Good job.
[ that is so many fucking days hello
thorns will barter his own days later he refuses to be awake that early for most of the week. what the fuck.
for now, though, he points at elysium's food. ]
You have less than I do.
[ is he on a diet...?
thinks about all the food thorns stole from elysium. ]

Is that why it felt like my life flashed before my eyes?
[ he is putting money where his mouth is he is acting sooooo cute thorns should never want to kill him again.
he shyly kisses thorns an nth time. ]
I'll carry you for as long as you want me to. But we can tuck back in for now…
[ not them waking up in the middle of the night for this ]

[ if thorns does end up joining him on his grindset though he should be drinking protein, though.
hmmmm
he seems to consider this. ]
We should ease you in or you'll run away…
[ muttered to himself. thorns already wants to run? thorns has entered hell. ]

[ sadly thorns does think elysium is cute. will this propaganda work? only time will tell until elysium does something else that pisses him off.
for now, they can walk back to their tent and get settled in again. it's funny because thorns can't even get too mad at elysium not letting him get up because technically he is the one who started going crazy when elysium left the bed. ]

[ not his shitty propaganda working, even if just for the time being…
but they can go back to being their pure, wholesome selves; the kind of pure and wholesome that won't even let the other take a bathroom break without enforcing the buddy system. it's a dangerous world out there? this is valid.
they can even sleep in this time, considering how little rest they've gotten the nights before. elysium's clinging does not get any better. ]

I was only allowed to buy what I could carry…
[ makes it worse
he starts playing with his food, shifting around a piece of broccoli with his fork. at least, today's protein of choice is beef. ]
It really bothered me that I wasn't seeing you around as much. Home is where the heart is, so it should be comfortable… yeah? Feeling like a third wheel probably wasn't great.

[ thorns can't curl into elysium because elysium's busy curling into him. sure, there's some uv protection built into the tent's fabric, but he's now convinced they should've made it stronger—who cares if they weren't meant for sleeping in? way too much light is still filtering through.
he groans. ]
Can the Corazonix block off the sun…?
[ shut up ]

[ the way thorns has likely used this argument against elysium before only to get ignored. should he be offended by this too?? even though the answer is simply they are so used to each other that elysium knows thorns will just accept it in the end...
there's another pause. ]
... I was busy, but I did want to give you privacy.
[ because there were times thorns was home and just locked himself in his room. ]

[ if he pays for things and puts them in thorns' arms, what's he going to do? just drop them and leave them at the register? he's too nice for that… meanwhile, alhaitham would…
this is why the vibes didn't vibe. ]
We only just started hanging out as much again.
[ this sounds so clingy but he isn't thinking about it.
in retrospect, asking thorns to get along with someone is a whole different beast than tolerating. elysium is taking mental notes. ]

[ SNIFFS
okay, well, he's just going to quiet down again and not be the first one to rise. he will canoodle all day if given the chance… this is such a novelty? during their last day at rhodes they were pretty much all over each over, but even that had its interruptions.
running away was the right choice all along…… ]

I don't want to get in the way of your attempts...
[ at finding love... even if thorns hates it. but isn't that what bros do? get out of the way???
he is going to end up on r*ddit reading bad opinions on how to treat in these situations. ]

[ it was the choice all along except that it is such an insane choice and it took many failed attempts for them to finally settle on it instead of daydreaming. is this good? unsure.
but he just kisses the side of his face to make him feel better. ]
Did you manage to sleep well?
