Summary
“Hey, can I put your hair up?”
“I –“ Jade blinks, dazedly like she hasn’t quite understood.
“I’m going to tie your hair back, okay?” Kit reiterates.
“Can’t cuz you’ll get sick.” Jade whines, pouting like a little kid denied their favourite toy. She never whines, and Kit is absolutely sure Jade was aware she had been holding her hair seconds ago.
“Please let her do it kid.” Ballantine says from the other side of the bed, wetting and wringing a cloth and flipping Jade’s arm so he can place it on her wrist. “Fever’s a bit lower.” He says under his breath. “Kit’s going to stay here with you while I clean this out.”
The sound of her own name takes her aback, but Kit takes to her newfound responsibility like a duck to water. If the duck was dying of panic.

Sick cuddle times and the meanings of care.
