( it is oddly romantic, considering who is saying it, but Peter doesn't assume that is what Matt means. he sort of just figures Matt means he'll do what Peter asks to make sure they can scrape him off this sofa sometime in the next few hours. plus the blood loss has to be making him a little loopy. if he wanted to dig into it to really think about it (he definitely doesn't), they're both on that same page, the only other person in the world that understands well enough to be leaned on. if only they could actually let themselves.
Peter's senses sizzle uncomfortably at the wince before Matt even makes the sound, and despite the fact he doesn't pull back, he definitely feels terrible about it. ) Sorry, sorry, sorry. ( he reaches for Matt's hand and uses it to take the place of his own on the gauze. apparently he has a needle to thread, he needs both hands for that. ) Hold that. On a scale of one to ten, how much am I going to hate this stitches thing?
( Peter is gently estimating about a... 26? maybe 28, if Matt is going to make more sounds like that. )
