Even when I look away, I’m still looking. He is inside his body, and I am inside my body, and it matters less and less
The crack about tetanus has Nate rolling his eyes, refusing to humour any real worry for it. "If you get tetanus I'll kick your ass." He warns, the growl in his voice more of a joke than anything else, especially combined with the easy grin. Everything else in the room follows the mattress out the window, the job feeling almost easy now that the excitement with the bats and blood is over with. And with everything out the window, they're done.
Nate lets himself be dragged down the stairs, settling back in the main room with his arm up on Sunjata's shoulder, the smile on his face a little smug. It slipped away quickly at the mention of more work, a sharp gaze thrown towards the attuned. "We'll handle something." He mumbled, rolling his eyes dramatically, and almost missing Sam and Kellan both sneaking away without a word.
Melita is not nearly so rude, coming out an nearly immediately bringing a smile back to Nate's face, her bubbly tone infectious, even if her words, her questions give him pause. "The upstairs is kind of a shithole, I'm surprised there's only one hole in the wall." He begins, glancing to Sunjata before fielding the bat question. "S'long as it wants to stay with you, and you don't get bit, I don't see an issue."
