Ben? Are you getting sleep? Have you EATEN in the past week? I am going to come take care of you, tell me where you are!

Also? Noah is requesting that you come read to him like you used to because he is SO CUTE and I'm pretty sure it makes him feel safe. I know it always made me feel that way. Which means I am coming too!

Though taking a break might be good if you haven't. I'm bringing you stirfry. It's awesome.

We should try to get Noah to eat some too, he looks peaky :(

(Also, I'm kind of still freaking out, but look how I pretend I'm not!)

I love you so much, you know? I really, really do. And I promise I'll try my damnedest never to scare you like this ♥

I'm still freaked out too, but I can't pretend not to be as well as you do. Lucky I'm not an actor.

I've eaten! One of the nurses or doctors or... some lady, she brought me a sandwich. Sleeping happens sometimes as well, but not often either.

I'm at the hospital using a computer Peter Kemp allowed me access to even though I yelled at him while his daughter was dying. I'm trying to give Daria some time with Noah since I've been taking it all.

I just don't think you need to focus on a freaking out Serenity when you're a freaking out Ben. He's going to be okay though. I know you don't really get the whole...whatever the hell it is people in that hospital stop talking about the minute you walk into a room, but if Peter says he knows Noah will be fine, Noah will be fine. It's just a thing.

When did she bring you a sandwich, Ben? Because I don't trust that that was recently!!

You what? You know what, nevermind... Peter's not a grudge holdy guy. He's a 'bend over backwards to help anyone with anything ever' guy. Do you want company there in your computer using place then? With stir fry? (if you're in Peter's office, there's scotch in the bottom drawer!)

And by the way, Tasha is not dying :|.

I don't want to know how you know he has scotch here.

Come visit me, Little Serene. The company would be good.

You're right, I'm sorry. That was the wrong choice of words and I'd forgotten that she's your friend. But she's awake now so certainly not dying. We've all lived through the week.

...Ben! (Not that one can blame you there, but you see, he's not 60 and oh God I just realised I did bone Peter's uncle...) Because my housemate is quite close to Peter and one day we stole it! Entirely innocent, I promise you! Well...there was stealing, but Peter shouldn't drink it anyway.

You are as bad as Noah avoiding my questions... God, it's like you're related or something. If you don't eat when I'm there, you're grounded.

I know, Ben. It's okay. I didn't know she was awake, wonderful! What a week. Fuck.

You slept with- Actually, I don't need to know. It's something we never ever need to talk about.

I'll eat, because you'll make me.

Yep, she's awake. You can come see her while you're here then.

Talk about what? See what I did there?

Damn right I will. Will this work on Noah too?

Wonderful!

I did see and my poor old brain is very grateful for it.

I'm sure it will. You're very powerful.

I'll be there soon, Dad. I love you!
