betterthanaplanDuke had spent most of the last few days in the water. Not being able to decompress from the events in LA with a good swim had not done wonders for his headspace, and being here, sans cast, meant he felt more like himself than he had in ages. He'd even managed some light yoga this morning, being gentle with his wrist as he rebuilt the muscle tone, which had also done wonders for his sense of peace and calm.
And, yeah, okay, doing a bit of rescheduled therapy with Linda over the phone, to make up for the appointment he'd missed by being an entirely different version of himself over the weekend, had helped, too.
Now, he was just sitting at the boat's stern, feet dangling in the water as he soaked in the tropical sun, his head blessedly empty as he watched the light sparkle against the water.
[nfb due to distance. Expecting one, but open to both those here with him, and any phone calls or texts!]

"So I've... stopped."
Everything. Even calling Lucifer skaifaya.

"Can't have everything, right?"

"En ai nou don tel em op, seintaim."

Date: 2021-10-09 08:45 pm (UTC)Also an excuse to drop her voice quieter. "What do you think his point of view is?"

Date: 2021-10-09 09:14 pm (UTC)"What, then?" she murmured. "How?"
He wouldn't be able to tell her, and she knew that. This was just... an attempt to start working through it. Just here in the safety of the two of them, first.

"But it's not what you are. Not when I'm not talking to strangers."

Date: 2021-10-10 05:08 pm (UTC)He closed his eyes and squeezed her hand. “I don’t know how to fix that. How you two can fix it.”
no subject
Date: 2021-10-10 05:11 pm (UTC)But, you know.

Date: 2021-10-10 07:24 pm (UTC)They probably would. But she was feeling vulnerable about it, and fishing for reassurance.
While she kept playing with his hair, looking down at him, so sweet with his head resting against her knee.
