"Really, I'm sure it's nothing," he protests, weakly, even as he sits in front of the other man and watches him fuss with the materials in his vest. "I've had worse." That at least he knows is true. Not that it's all that reassuring to be telling John he's got a history of head wounds, of course, but that's neither here nor there.
