“Alright, come here you.”

“I feel like this has been an unnecessarily long hug.”

“Was it necessary to tackle me on sight?”

“Mmmphf. Snicetoseeyoutoo.”

“It’s time for a drink, you and me.”

“You may have stolen my sweater, but I learned to buy doubles.”

“Here, you can have mine.”

“I really needed that… thank you.”

“Hugs are good. Yours are the best.”

“This was my lap. Now apparently this is your lap.”

“You’ve stolen my spot. I know you know it’s my spot”

“There is a blanket big enough for both of us.”

“Playing with my hair? I’m going to fall asleep…”

“Let me brush that out for you.”

“I managed to convince the appropriate people to get you some time off.”

“Lunch is being bought, what do you want?”

“I don’t want to talk to- wait, no never mind, you’re fine.”

“It’s called a spare jacket for a reason y’know.”

“You brought me something?”

“I’m glad you ignored my defiant claims of not needing sleep.”

“Only my favourite people get my special kind of sass.”

“I missed you a lot. Like, I’m going to get corny about it a lot”

“You make a good leaning post.”

“I’m just going to-thank you. I’m good now.”

“You. Rest. Now.”

“You took five steps and need to sit down again?”

“I’m absolutely fine, I just need to sit down.”

“I just need to sit-what do you mean I’m already laying down?”

“Your eyes aren’t focusing. Just close them for ten minutes.”

“Write one sentence on this piece of paper, and then I’ll let you up.”

“I just need a breather, that’s all. Maybe ten. No fifteen.”

“We’re both so exhausted we can’t even argue about not being exhausted.”

“When I said I needed five more minutes I meant it more like hours.”

“… no… I’m tired… let me sleep… I don’t want to get up.”

“We need to get out of the heat, you’re starting to look sick.”

“You can’t hide those shaking hands from me. You need to stop.”

“I’m just a little cold, I’m okay, really. Let me sit with a blanket or something.”

“Moving…? No I’m good thanks.”

“Gravity has a hold on me of which I have not the strength to break.”

“Was… was that actually there? That wasn’t there was it?”

“I’ve had no energy for three days.”

“You worked yourself so hard that you’ve been sentenced to three days of bed rest.”

“Listen I can… I can get up. It’s fine.”

“If we’re both in this state, we both really screwed up somewhere huh?”

“I have energy for exactly one more person of favourable standing, and going the hell to bed. With or without that person, bed is happening.”

“You’ve struggled to move anything for the last hour.”

“This is what happens when you over exert yourself.”

“You were almost dead from pushing it too far!”
