Kareem had just returned from another round of exams on their ankle, the conversation with Charvitha still fresh in the back of their mind as they moved slowly through the clinic’s hallways, using the cane they’d been leaning on for the last two weeks for support. It wasn’t easy–it hadn’t been easy, to have to get used to it, but in a way, it was better than whatever dark magic the other was going to offer. Still, they couldn’t stop thinking about it. Not when it was brought up and not now, as they grabbed a cup of coffee for Theo, before going into their partner’s room. “ Hello, gorgeous. ” They smiled, struggling to keep the coffee with one hand and opening the door while also holding onto their cane. In the end, they managed. “ How are you feeling today? Like a building collapsed on you or a little better? ” After being with them for almost a year as their partner, and for longer than that as their friend, Kareem figured they had gotten the hang of their sense of humor.
