Hello, there! I see you've found your way to my character inbox! Please send nudes <3
they slapped a power-dampening collar on me. for resisting the medical examination bullshit they were doing.
do you have a wand and a cool hat? i only want your help if you come with a cool hat or a cape or something or forget the whole thing.

[wow. okay. this is nice. he should get sick more often if it means people will start sending him nude selfies!]
I'm definitely temporarily feeling something other than pain right now after that pic.

i was really hoping you'd come in channeling gandalf.
the wand will have to do.

word.
and as far as taking my pain goes, yes, absolutely come do that.

it's just the cancer? nothing else they've done to you?
[ When Jean calls, she tries very hard to keep her voice light and gentle.
There's a tightness to it, though, an edge she can't quite banish. ]
Hey, Wade. Do you mind if I come over? I might be able to help.

Does it involve going into my head...?
[He's very unsure about that idea and it's obvious in his voice.]

but that's more than enough.

That's one option, and probably the safest. Not trying to read your thoughts, just suppressing the pain.
I know that's asking for a lot of trust, and I won't take it personally if you don't want to try it.

It takes a long time for Wade to reach the door. He's not really left his bed or the couch much in the last few days. It takes a great deal of effort to haul his carcass to the door and then actually open the door with fingers that don't seem to want to work right.
He's looking like death walking. The scars after always there, on every inch of his body from the head downward. But beyond that, his eyes are sunken and skin clammy.
"It's that a staff? That's... so cool. [He'd be more exuberantly enthusiastic if it weren't taking everything he had to stay on his feet.]

I told Nate no... but that's just because I didn't think he could handle it.
[Considering that he'd tossed Wade across the room after trying to snoop around the last time.]
I'm willing to try. [He did trust her. More or less.]

Good call. [ Ruefully affectionate. She knows doesn't have the restraint or experience, not yet. ]
Thank you, Wade, and I mean that. I'll be over soon.

Doors unlocked.
[He'll just be on the couch, curled in a ball and trying to focus on something other than dying.]

[ Jean takes Nathan's staff - it hasn't left her side since she got that damn sticker - and heads out. It's not exactly a long walk, but she flies anyway, and the door opens itself with a wave of her hand.
The psimitar pulses angrily when she sees Wade, but her bearing is nothing but tender as she approaches. ]
Hey, you.
[ She's just going to kneel at his side, not reaching out physically or mentally just yet. ]

[is this... concern?]
I could use a cuddle?
[And now Wade is trying to ruin the moment, apparently.]

"It is a staff, and there's even a dirty song about the knob on a wizard's staff I can teach you." She moves in to help him stand and, presumably hobble back to wherever he's settled himself. "Rumour has it that there's a knob on the end that all the young ladies adore."
Lu doesn't seem even slightly put out or surprised by his scarring. It's unusual, to be sure, but she's from a time with all manner of common and magical skin conditions. Strange looking, but without anything weeping fluid (...ugh), she won't balk at moving him as needed.

[Wade's eyes settle on the psimitar before really looking at Jean. Hmm. Then Jean's kneeling right in front of him and he focuses slowly on her.]
Hey, me. [He manages a small half-hearted smile.]
