Well, you are to me. [So there :P And he does hear the footsteps, yes, it has him looking around.
Not remembering to eat... He's forgotten what that's like, but he does have some experience with it, so he can sort of imagine.] I'll make sure you remember then, wouldn't do you any good to get sick. [A pause.] How far away are you?
[Oh.. His unbeating heart does a little leap.] No, I'd rather be with you. But... you're saying you want me to live in your apartment? [JUST SO HE KNOWS, that's a lot, but he does want it.

( absolutely not, simon. don't start this again. you can hear the door to his apartment swing shut as he leaves, and his brisk footsteps. )
It's...taking a little bit to get used to. I still forget to eat regular meals sometimes because I forget I have to.

voice;

( well. he's leaving the option open, okay? he doesn't know where they stand. )
voice;
Ten minutes, not so long now then.]
voice;
( ...before he found the knives, but that's a story for later. )
voice;
Anything else I did that I should know about? Or should I wait until you get here?
