Everest
'A what?' Forgetting all about vacations, Everest turns fully towards Mateo, his attention firmly gripped by catalogue and organisation.
In the years to come, every effort by Everest to keep Mateo safe, every use of a revivify feather, every incredibly detailed documentation of the drugs in his system, and every homebrewed-stomach-pump, would all be to make up for moments like this. Moments where, despite Mateo's chaotic nature, he selflessly was able to guide and soothe his friend with ease.
'Tell me more.' Leaning forward so that he could crawl a short distance away while keeping his feet in the same position (why?), Ever retrieves his notebook and hastily flips open to a new page, forgetting entirely that this book was going to have to be re-written because of the damage he'd done to it earlier.
