Every other time, then?

[ He's joking. Probably. He doesn't expect any busting, but moreover, he doesn't expect himself to fuck up bad enough to land in prison. You could never know, of course. Sometimes you did everything right, but there were wrong people at the wrong time... ]

[ He doesn't move, but he hears that bin click in place and he definitely appreciates it. He's still somewhat numbed by adrenaline (or painkillers if he got any), but the itching ache of stitches pulling on him is already starting to set in. ]

[ Levi's right about the motivation, it seems. Squalo doesn't look all that much livelier, considering the situation, but the grin is definitely back. ]


Thanks for the pep talk, boss. I'll drag myself all the way back from Hell if I have to.

[ He doesn't have much energy left, so he just lets his happiness be known by sort of pushing his head a little against Levi's hand. Like an overgrown cat indeed. He passes out in the middle of it, but he looks comfortable enough not to need rearranging. ]

[ He'll probably still be dead to the world by the time Levi comes back. At least it's obvious that he's alive from the loud snores that seem to escape him every now and then. They stop in the evening when starts running a fever, replaced by tossing and turning and quieter grumbles, but it would break in a few more hours. ]
