I'm not going to say no.

[ Jim wants it as badly as Zell does. ]

Just promise me you're going to wait until it doesn't hurt you anymore.

[swatsflies]

Jim... [ Rubbing the back of his head. ] I can't promise that. I can promise I'll try for you, but I can't promise I won't. I miss you a whole hell of a lot.

[rattlingthestars]

[ Jim makes a low, frustrated noise that's a lot closer to a snarl than he intended. ]

I can't catch you if you keep hurting yourself.

[swatsflies]

[ He making a sound in turn that's confused with an edge of something else. ]

Jim. It didn't hurt. It just made me dizzy. Besides, it's up to me what's worth it. You'll always be worth it to me.

[ His voice gets more emotional as he talks. ]

[rattlingthestars]

It made you bleed.

[ Zell's not the only one sounding emotional. ]

It could've made you pass out.

there is a bad pick up line to be had here

[swatsflies]

I wouldn't have.

[ Zell knows his limits. He wants to ask if Jim could just trust his judgement. If they could have talked about it. But maybe he's right. Maybe it's a talk that needs to wait for them to be face to face after he enjoys being around him. ]

Don't worry about what could have happened. Just come back to me when you can.

:D

[rattlingthestars]

Yeah.

[ Jim will worry about it, it's the whole reason he's doing this, but he can let it go for now. ]

As soon as I can. Love you.

[swatsflies]

Love you too, Stars.

[ Does he need to add in the whole even now? He's hoping it's obvious since he wants to keep Jim on the line. Going the rest of the way up stairs to go to one of the rooms. ]

Taking any requests?

[rattlingthestars]

Requests?

[ Jim sounds a little thrown, even thought the sadness. ]

[swatsflies]

Singing requests. Sing to me, Stars? Just a bit?

[ He's jumping topics and making demands. ]

[rattlingthestars]

[ Oh. Jim should have guessed. ]

-Anything you want.

[swatsflies]

[ Smiling softly at the response. ]

The first one you ever sang to me?

[rattlingthestars]

Of course, Sunshine.

[ Jim's voice is softer and rougher than usual, but he'll sing the same song, thinking about the same night, as many times as Zell wants. ]
