Laurence!

[it comes as a snap of surprise. Moments before he even glances over to the laurels (some kind of fucked up thing in the air this week), taking a deep breath and blinking himself back. Settling again. More focused now, he hopes.]

Laurence. I'm...it's really hard to figure out where I'm supposed to be. Sorry.

Where you're supposed to be...? It's just heaven, isn't it?

[ sorry he's! confused!! ]

...

[He looks particularly pained by the notion. Then, in a tight voice he tries his best to clear:]

Yeah. Heaven. Close as we can get to it yet, huh?

[...]

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

And somehow not as close as it should be.

I'm fine, Mr. Tozier. You're the one who's...

[ glances at his shoulder and quickly looks away again, the vines around his neck and wrists squeezing a little tighter. he doesn't want to say it. ]

I know. I'd make a great Halloween decoration right about now. Think I can pick up a part time gig in the village?

[JOKES. Sweet refuge. Though he frowns at the vines, making a gesture at the tug.]

No way you can make those ease up? It looks uncomfortable. [Then, a touch quieter.] I'll be all right. I know it looks bad, but the gang patched me up pretty good. I'll just take 'er easy a while. Get used to half a set of digits.

[ winces. ]

At least you aren't a skeleton...? [ the worst "silver lining" in the world.

laurence reaches for the vines around his neck, trying to tug them a little looser but they don't budge much. ] I... don't really control them.

We need a real infirmary if we can all get hurt like this. The stuff at the store doesn't really cut it. [ band-aids? for a missing arm? at least laurence does look a little reassured that richie is acknowledging it, and not pretending he's perfectly fine. at least the others have done their job taking care of him. ] If... you need painkillers or something. Let me know. I can't do much, but I can do that.
