Anyoneknowhowtoknit?

[Wait, no, he's talking too fast, isn't he? Dammit. Tommy curses under his breath in several languages and then breathes deeply.]

Does. Anyone know. Howto. Knit?

[Ugh, he hates it when he gets hit by these moods.]

Got insomnia and allthatshit. Need my handsandmind busy. Back home I'd go running. Or work waslike building stuff. Hands and brain busy.

[And if he doesn't have something to distract him, he was going to vibrate so much something might explode.]

"Which is why I'm probably one of the better people to work with, but I won't pressure you."

[doubled_speed]

"I could blow you up," Tommy counters.

And he wouldn't even be doing it intentionally.

[havethestrength]

"I'm willing to take the chance if you are." He'll just come back here.

[doubled_speed]

Well... That’s a point he supposed he could listen to.

“I don’t want to kill.”

That’s the difference, Ben. He doesn’t want to KILL someone.

[havethestrength]

"Even if I won't really die?"

[doubled_speed]

“But you would. Coming back doesn’t make you any less dead.”

It matters. It matters a lot.

[havethestrength]

Ben nods in understanding.

"Alright. If you change your mind, let me know."

[doubled_speed]

"Yeah, I will. Promise."

But he doesn't want it tonight. Not when he's shaken and keyed up already.
