Are you ready to wake up now?

[julienned]

Come on, let's go. I know what i need to do.

[WE WAKING UP.]

*his eye snap open. he's pretty much slumped over Julian's bed as much as his positioning allows, both hands at Julian's temples. and he looks like kind of a wreck -- pale, dark circles under his eyes, disheveled. but he's smiling.*

[julienned]

[after a long moment his eyes open slowly, squinting at the light]

Oh. It doesn't hurt.

[mind_over_metal]

*pushes himself upright and briefly presses the heel of his hand against his eyes before sitting up fully, looking at Julian*

Feeling anything else other than not-hurt?

[julienned]

[mind_over_metal]

We'll have to bring in the doctor for that, I'm afraid. But I'm optimistic about it.

[julienned]

I know how to take them out on my own.

[mind_over_metal]

I know. But the doctor should check you before that happens.
