Ed has been ordered to rest, and to do a heck of a lot of it. He has been told he needs to stay in the bar, preferably around his room. Ed... doesn't like being told what to do, even if it might be good for him

Comments

[maxwellsdemon02]

"What are you doing, Ed?"

Duo appears almost out of nowhere, poking his nose into the middle of things.

[notashortbean]

"What do you mean, how did I manage it? It just happened."

[maxwellsdemon02]

"Well, you had to catch it from someone!"

[notashortbean]

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Ed looks a little annoyed, now.

[maxwellsdemon02]

"Germs don't generate in your bloodstream spontaneously, Ed. You caught that mono from someone. It's got a nickname, you know."

[notashortbean]

"I bet I don't want to hear that nickname."

But he's going to hear it anyway, isn't he?

[maxwellsdemon02]

"Kissing disease."

How did he guess?

[notashortbean]

"No way."

See that? That is Ed not believing him. At all.

[maxwellsdemon02]

"I'm serious! That's how people usually catch it!"

Duo kindly does not make any comments about who Ed may or may not have been making out with.

[notashortbean]

Nice move, Duo, except apparently Ed doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut.

"CRAP," he expresses, "What if I've been handing it out?!"

He pauses.

...

" -- NOT THAT I'VE BEEN KISSING ANYONE OR ANYTHING."

[maxwellsdemon02]

"Of course not."

Duo pauses to look Smug.

"So, who've you been kissing."

[notashortbean]

"Nobody!" Ed insists. "Nobody at all."

He's really convincing, right?

[maxwellsdemon02]

Totally.

"Well, I was gonna say you don't spazz about nothing. But that would be a lie."

[notashortbean]

"....hey!"

Ed's offended by that!

"I do not spazz over nothing! And I'm not spazzing right now, either!"

Spell it with us: d e n i a l.

[maxwellsdemon02]

"Of course not."

Duo also magnanimously doesn't tease Ed anymore.

For now.

"You eat, yet?"
