Well...Ever since the staples happened I've been meaning to fix it...

My magic is kind of a mess because of it. [And he's got dead organs in there. It's not pretty, and that's why he smells kinda funky.]

I...yeah, but I just didn't think it was possible. I didn't want to tell you about it until I was sure I could at least try. I haven't really mentioned it to anyone but you and Axel...uh, Lea. [And it kind of just popped up when he was talking about stuff that he might have missed.]

I don't know how dangerous it's going to be, but the guy who's doing it is going to do a little test run first to make sure it'll be okay. It's like surgery though, so there is always that risk...I just don't know the numbers.

Okay. Well, you know, it means a lot that you told me. A lot.

[especially considering some of the stuff she's been thinking about lately]

Can we talk about it now? Like, in person?

I wasn't going to not tell you Vriska. This is something important, not trivial. And I for sure tell you the important shit.

[He doesn't mind talking about it in person though. After spending much of the day before with Lea, he's gotten the need to be right next to him at all times out of his system.] Sure, is our room good?

I know! That's what I'm saying. It means a lot.

And yeah, that's good.

[brb heading over there now]

[And he'll be waiting for her in the bedroom, sitting on the bed against the wall with his shoes off.]

[she hoists herself up next him]

Hi.

Are you scared?

Scared?

[He puts an arm around her, leaning gently.] Not really. If something goes wrong I might be, but...it wouldn't be anyone's fault if it does.

[she reaches up with one hand to hold onto the arm that's around her shoulders, and puts the other around him, returning the half-hug]

What kind of stuff could go wrong? Besides dying.

Uh...extreme pain? I don't know.

It's surgery and replacing some pretty important stuff, and then getting rid of the runes that are there. Still not sure if I should keep what's there on or if I should burn them off, but it all depends on how much pain I can take, I guess.

Oh. Well. Pain's not so bad, right?

[... or maybe that's just her]

[He doesn't know if she's ever experienced organ failure, but that's usually what happens when he uses too much magic. It hurts like a mother fucker, but usually goes away.]

Eh. I'm hoping it won't be.

I'll try to help out if it is. If I can.

Well if it is, I'd be going back to my surgeon.

I don't want to mess around with any of that stuff, take any chances...Because I'd rather not die again.

Who's doing it, anyway? I want to talk to him.

Urahara? I don't know if you know him, but I don't think his science-work is a well-known thing, so.

If you could keep it a little hush hush, they'd probably be best.

Don't worry, I'm not going to tell anyone.

When did you want to do it?

I was just saying it just in case. I didn't think you would.

And...I have no idea. I told him it was up to him, so we'll have to see. He is doing me a favor, so...I was going to give him a little free reign of when and where.

I think he should give you the free reign. You're the one being operated on.

But if you're okay with it...

[she shrugs a little, not enough to dislodge his arm]

You're going to tell me when you set a date, right?

I couldn't do it myself, so...

[He rests his head against her shoulder, nodding.] Mm. Of course! I mean, I dunno how long it'll take, or if I'll be in bed for a while after it, so. I'll have to plan for what ever comes afterwards I guess.

Yeah, I get that. But I can take care of you.

-- If you want me to.

If I need it, I'll probably ask.

[Though he's had to have a lot of taking care of lately. It's not his absolute favorite.] If you don't mind.

Hanna.

[she wriggles out from under his arm and shifts around to face him, which means she has to crawl into his lap]

[putting her hands on his shoulders, looking right into his eyes]

I never mind. Ever. Okay?

[Be blinks, a little curious as to what she's doing, but...]

Oh...okay? I got it.

That's actually something I wanted to talk to you about.

But there's another thing too, and we should talk about that first. When you're up for it. It's cool if you want to wait until we're not worried about this surgery thing.

Hey, I'm up for it now. Its not like this is going to happen tomorrow, so...
