Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I don't think most people ever really get used to it," he assured the smaller man, features gone neutral. "Most people care more than I do." Zeke just...didn't. It wasn't a new problem, but one that has persisted since he was younger. It's what made it so extraordinary, him actually caring about anyone now.

"How's that arm feeling!" It didn't look much better, but it also didn't look any worse either. At the very least, the anti-venom had stopped the spread.

"Mmhmm." He didn't sound convinced, though he didn't know Oliver quite well enough to force him to stay put until he was sure the sting was on its way to healing. He liked the kid alright, more than most, but Oliver hadnt yet crossed into the realm of important. Not yet.

Frankly, there were too many people on that list already, as it was.

"Well, if you're sure you're fine you can go. Just keep an eye on that for the next twenty-four hours, and come back if it doesn't look like it's healing." And before Oliver could leave, in an effort to derail any plans of ignoring this suggestion in favor of not being a burden. "If it doesn't heal we might have to remove the limb, and then how difficult would it be taking care of all those little Fear creatures?"

"Good. You're free, then." Hazel eyes stayed with him until he had hopped off the table and headed for the door. It didn't look like he was about to topple over, which meant the Mist's concern(limited though it had been) ended there.

Oliver was on his way out, so Zeke went about picking up the supplies he'd used; discarding what needed discarding, or gathering up what needed cleaning. There'd be the matter of the paperwork after, but that'd be quick.
