It's not entirely impossible, I suppose.

[ oh. he goes red, then a little white-faced. ]

I-- [ his mouth is so dry he has to swallow a couple of times to be able to speak. ] .. Yeah. Yeah, it's not.. impossible for me, either.

{ Look, he's trying not to make a big deal about it. }

Nothing in this world has an absolute zero percent chance, after all.

[ it is absolutely a big deal, terzo. mercy looks a half-second away from panic. ]

Right. Yeah. It doesn't mean it would happen, just-- It's a possibility.

[ a distinct possibility. with much higher than zero percent chances. ]

There are worse fates out there, I'm told.

[ a long pause, pale eyes searching terzo's face, expression a little helpless. ]

I-- I'm still.. so scared that I'm going to get you killed. [ terzo is so fucking important to him, and even though he's been safe so far, the fear is hard to fight some days. ]

Then you and Copia have something to bond over, no?

(( Okay, maybe that was bordering on crass, but it's not not true. Terzo shrugs a shoulder, always the picture of nonchalance when faced with something serious. ))

My family is favored by Satan himself, tesoro, it seems unlikely you have anything to worry about.

(( Even if nothing has a zero percent chance of happening. ))

Please, please don't even joke about that. [ like he gets it, they both have their ways of coping with shit, but he has enough nightmares as it is. ]

.. And I know. I do, in my head, I do, but it's-- I don't know. I wake up in the middle of the night sometimes and have to force myself not to text you like some paranoid psycho just to make sure you're alright.

You know you can call me or text me at any time of day. I do like hearing from you.

[ he smiles, small and grateful and a little shaky around the edges. ] Even at 3AM?

(( He gives Mercy a little tap on his nose.

Even then, but you can't panic if I don't respond because I happen to be asleep.

( prefs here! )

[I can pull out early season Buffy for those looking for someone a little younger. F/M for anything that could bloom into romance, but the ladies are welcome to comment.]
