[ Rested. Such an unfamiliar term to him sometimes. But Adele was right he needed rest because if anything was clear he looked exhausted. He tried to make it not seem as such but in the end it how much could you really fake towards a surgeon like her?
It's only when she brings up the matter of examining him that his green eyes widen slightly. Fear. There's a mixture of fear and trepidation in every line of his body now. It was scary to have someone look that closely at him. His arms...his hideous scars that bring him so much shame and abhorrence towards his own body. Helios looks away at the floor as if in deep contemplation. It should be an easy answer, get looked at and fixed up, but it never is for him. Never is because he makes things so difficult and hard for people to get close. ] Ah. I-I don't...
[ A pause. He could do it himself, somehow, he had been reading books on such things in the library after all. He doesn't know. He really doesn't want her to but he knows he must. He'll bite his lip not saying much of anything for a long moment. He looks back at Adele briefly and with a small sigh. ] Y-you're not...g-going to let me heal it myself are you?
[ Such a silly question. Of course she isn't, is she? It's worth a try though. ]
