It was as if a parallel world existed.
Two people were genuinely conversing about the sudden presence of a giant bruise.
"Hngh!" Luca gasped because Xavier's thumb brushed against the swollen area. It wasn't that painful, but Luca was surprised that it was even there.
He doesn't really go around touching his chest, and didn't think it'd be that bad. Now, he even started wondering if the injury looked too serious for someone to react like this.
Luca decided to look in the mirror after.
"Was it that bad? I didn't get to see it."
"Now, when you actually have to see things, you don't even look. Maybe you should reconsider your priorities?" Xavier deadpanned after remembering how Luca was keen on seeing the action but couldn't be bothered to check if his fragile body was holding up.
His skin was soft, and now it's gotten like this.
