closed starter for @tarynmichaels
“You see, it’s against FIFA regulations for players to wear jewelry on the pitch, but out walks the entire Australian football team when the game was resumed wearing literally every piece of jewelry one could possibly wear in support of our own player who forgot to take the stud out of his ear. They refused to continue playing over the rule until he was allowed back on the pitch for a fair game against them.” Simon kept up with stories like that, helping any patients stay calm and in the process helping him keep his mind off his brother still being missing. Well, mostly off his brother. The player that forgot to remove the stud was his brother, but Simon made it through the story without getting emotional. “I think you’re all set. If you have any more problems, you know where to find me.”
