[He makes it quick. The syringes are the newer kind, where just a short prick is enough. None of the pressing the needle in from way back when. He doesn't answer Kido until he has brushed some antiseptic on her skin, followed by a round Band-Aid with a cute cartoony panda printed on it. He then helps her lie back down, awkwardness and everything temporarily forgotten. She's sick, after all.]

... I didn't. I don't know how fast the vaccine will help, but you should be fine now.

[That wasn't so bad. She can't help looking at the panda. It's really cute and distracts her from feeling too bad that she needs so much help still. Well, she babied him a bit while he was sick so it's only fair.

Kido rests her arm over her stomach as she looks up at him. He didn't get better. So, he died. Somehow it's a distant thought compared to everything else.]

Thanks. How are you doing?

I wasn't sick when I woke up. Jade gave me some medicine again, and then the Initiative got their vaccine. [And a trip to Alaska.]

I haven't gotten sick since, so you can say I'm doing fine.

[She breathes out a light sigh, almost close to a laugh.]

Well... since you listened to me, if you need anyone, I'm not going anywhere. But it looks like you're doing something good with yourself. That probably helps.

I'm not thinking about it. It doesn't do any good to question it, for now. [He looks at her, scooting off the bed so she can have one that's not tilting with his weight.] Do you want water or something?

[concealingeyes]

[She didn't mean logically, though, she meant emotionally. Kido doesn't know how to put that and just shrugs.]

Some water would be good... I don't want to keep you long.

[No feels Kido. No feels. He nods and disappears into the kitchen for a second, before doubling back and asking her if she wanted cold water or room temperature? He'll come back with the appropriate water and hand it to her.]

It's fine, don't worry about it.
