(Thank you.  I try.)

"Thanks for caring, Iris, but I've tried that already," Azulius declined, stifling a giggle at the idea of Oobleck rapping.

"I already saw plenty of doctors.  The family's been going straight for a few years now, but you'd be surprised how many doctors in Vacuo have had a Cardamom show up on their door after hours agreeing to pay double in exchange for keeping quiet.  It's healed as far as it's going to heal.  At least one doctor said that the worst scarring now is psychological.  I actually read a paper once about patients' mental states affecting wound recovery rates, so she may be on to something."

He leaned forward, placing his elbows on his knees as he looked at Iris. "And besides, most of the time it's not even a problem, just when I'm with a pretty girl and the situation drifts towards the romantic.  Which, for good or bad, doesn't happen all that often."

How Azzie longed to say something. To tell Iris that, even though love at first sight hardly ever worked, he was willing to take a gamble. But he had seen Iris and her partner, Cody Miel-or-something-like-that, and the looks they gave each other. There was most definitely something between them, and the magician had more than enough class to not make a girl cheat with him. But how did she feel about this? That was the linchpin of the problem, and Azulius simply wasn't sure. What good is reading people if I can't get the information I need?
