"Good answer, because I wasn't about to let you stay here n sleep alone," some things just weren't in the cards on his end. Waru'd decided it even before he'd come, where he'd stay, even if he'd have to argue the point of it. A snap impulse as always, but there were words from Aelius that'd been worrying enough...

Waru was glad he wouldn't have to fight the point while he finished wrapping Aelius torso up till he appeared to be a rather comfortable mummy. Smoothed a hand over a rumple of gauze n pinned it with a tiny metal clip on the side. There, now he wouldn't shluff all off over his nice -- everything -- cause some of those oils didn't come outta sheets without leaving stains that looked like murders n grease fires.

"All done," tired enough to sigh past the furl of indigo hair he had to carefully pluck a few strands free of, lest they catch in the bind; while reaching around Aelius n hooking his drink by a finger till he could drag it close enough to swallow down again. It really was good, and he hoped the mixing would put him to sleep in a way where he wouldn't be dreaming up any kind of weirdness.

When both their cups looked done enough, he motioned for Aelisu's own, it was habit, to wash his hands at the same time as he rinsed his and his hosts drinkware, to make sure some small things were picked up; like one last bit of busying himself would be more n enough to put him down. Easier even, once he'd thrown out the medical trash n changed out and...

"Go on, yeah. I'll join you in a sec."
