This is why people worry about you, you know. At least take someone else with you for when you inevitably tear your injuries back open.

[ someone else? yves looks over at laurence for a long moment, at first uncomprehending and unrecognizing, before he just nods once and comes back to himself. ]

... it's okay. Pretty sure ghosts can't die twice.

[ okay

mostly back to himself ]

[outdistanced]

[ stares at him?????? ]

Several people have already died twice...? What're you talking about?

[ obviously some cyoa mumbo jumbo but what is this flavor of mumbo jumbo exactly ]

[noirges]

[ and now he looks at laurence, confused ]

... I don't understand. I think it's remarkable enough that you can see me, but that doesn't make all of us ghosts.

[ ...reaches out to touch his arm. gentle, in case that's also injured. ]

You don't feel like a ghost to me.

[noirges]

[ well

laurence will feel that yves is freezing cold. he's slightly trembling from it in fact. ]

... don't I?

[outdistanced]

...A little cold, maybe, but we can get you an extra blanket or something.

[noirges]

... I don't think blankets cure death, Laurence.

[outdistanced]

You're alive enough now that blankets won't hurt.

[noirges]

[ looks down at his hands, disbelieving ]

... I guess.

[outdistanced]

[ what exactly is he supposed to do right now? argue with someone who has cyoa brain?

he hates it here. ]

You've got to know that people are going to get worried if you keep running off.

[noirges]

.... I don't like hospitals.

Bad memories.

[outdistanced]

[ ...well he's not heartless. his expression softens. ]

Right... But you still shouldn't just run off when you're injured. You should probably be resting.

[noirges]

I wasn't going to do cartwheels in the park...

I was just going to find somewhere else quiet to sit.

[ that's not a hospital ]

[outdistanced]

At least take someone with you in case you pass out again.

[noirges]

[ tilts head ]

Were you just waiting for an invite?

[ kldjfgjdg aaaaaaa ]
