Not like how I do you…
[ it's kind of embarrassing to say out loud. now that he's actually thinking about it, the whole thing is embarrassing. he's realising just how much of a grade-school bully he's been and internally closes his eyes in shame.
but he sighs, circles around to pick up the spoon thorns dropped, fetches a new one, and comes back with it.
then, he holds out a spoonful of soup. this isn’t how he treats anyone else, but apparently thorns is the type who needs to be romanced. okay. ]

[ okay, he is most definitely looking at him after that bomb. thorns just comes to a full stop. ]
There wouldn't be anyone else. I can only be in love because it's with you. It wouldn't have happened with a different person.
[ this feels like a conversation from so long ago, when they were first discovering what a relationship between them might mean. ]

[ deer in petting zoos don't explode after being given a cookie, thorns… ]
… I really want to make fun of you right now, but I won't. I guess if I imagine you as someone I'm on a date with, I'd call you cute?
[ can thorns stop asking him questions. thanks. this is already so awful. ]
You're cute, but I wouldn't just say that… it doesn't feel right… [ … ] It's funny when you fight back.

It sounds like I'm being called cute out of pity.
[ he is starting to doubt that they would work out, perhaps they should stay platonic after all? would they even be able to progress to lacing their fingers together if they h*ld h*nds? ]
Should I hit you?

Should I hit you?
I know. That's why I'm sorry. I wouldn't let you be with anyone else, either. Or be in love with them, or let it happen. My circumstances are what they are, my personality is what it is, but I can't let you go.
[ he takes thorns' other hand, clasping both in his own and giving them a firm squeeze. ]
That's what I'm sorry for.
[ he takes thorns' other hand, clasping both in his own and giving them a firm squeeze. ]
That's what I'm sorry for.
You shouldn't be sorry for that.
[ thorns can't picture a life without elysium. even when he tries to keep things platonic, or him at a distance, they just eventually come crashing together again. why should he ever want anything other than this? ]
I love every part of you. Even the parts you don't want me to see. Nothing will ever change that.

[ okay but that does not change the fact that if thorns was meant for a fish wife he would not be having this problem of oripathy and shorter life spans. but it's reiterating an argument they have before—they've just never had it this in plain.
he tips forward to kiss thorns gently. ]
And that's all that can be said. I love you too, mi luz. We'll stretch our now for however long we can.

[ thorns does not want a fish wife... good luck to anyone who would have tried to romance him.
although it's still difficult thinking of things with an end date. ]
I just need you to know that I wouldn't trade this for anything else. So don't apologize for this again.

[ HELLO
it's elysium's turn to drop his spoon. except, he isn't nearly as lucky as thorns and ends up falling into his soup and splashing the both of them. ow. ]
Huh? I should be asking you th—
[ the doorbell rings. elysium is so soup that he doesn't want to deal with it. he waits… they ring again. ]
…
[ it is the first person you think of. ]

I need you to promise me you won't try to take care of my Oripathy behind my back. Or make decisions solely because of it.
[ it's easy to say now, of course. and it's not like elysium wants to throw his life for a disease he doesn't have to. yet, he's not sure if there's a solution they can agree on exists. ]

… I'll hold you to it.
[ even if he very well has his suspicions—he wants to trust thorns. he wants to give all he can that he couldn't before. then, he releases one hand so he's back to holding just the one. ]
Before that, we have a lot to make up for from today.

[ what is thorns going to do if he doesn't know how to destreza… he somehow escaped kal'tist's containment…
scien just lowers his foot. and because thorns is closer, catches his chin. hmmm. he got sick too? interesting. elysium slaps his hand away and scien just says not to get jealous. well, elysium was the one who stood up the second date. (he was dying.)
he has never looked like he's wanted to punch someone more. ]
