He was. And I am sure I need not tell you what a wise man he is. Truly, I am grateful for at least one twist of fate.
[Some part of him can't help but think about the man, surely mourning the loss of the three of them. Dion wishes he could only pass one message on — that they were safe, at least in a manner of speaking. A man his age did not need to be weighed down by something like grief.
Still, when Joshua meets his eyes again, he's managed to reclaim his smile. It even edges on the mischievous.]
My healer? I was not aware we had taken such steps. From my understanding, there are several who call the clinic home. What of them?
[Does it make his heart skip, for Joshua to call himself his? It shouldn't. Dion knows better. He won't let his heart get away with such fantasies.
He does sober at the mention of his wounds. He glances down at his still bandaged arm, and shrugs a shoulder.] Perhaps in need of more attention. I hesitate to use up what I have so quickly, though. The rest of it is little more than aches and pains. Truly not so terrible, for a man who plummeted to his death.
