“THIS IS ridicules, I don’t get sick, it’s impossible I’m a butler and my Master needs me.” How would Master Corrin dress himself or make his tea if Joker wasn’t there to do it? His tea was still frighteningly terrible to the point it might cause people to get ill if they ingested it without a proper addition of water and sugar!
Though, honestly, what should be more frightening was the fact that Takumi of all people were here trying to take care of him. Joker was unsure this boy even knew that soup was cooked in a pot and not just dumped into a bowl and served cold. Had he even had to make a single thing on his own in his entire life? Or was he just as useless as Master Corrin in the kitchen?
“Prince Takumi at the very least I can take care of myself, besides I only sneezed during our training and you still managed to hit the apple instead of me, I’ll be perfectly fine you don’t need to tell Master Corrin anything.” Also just completely ignore the fact his face was a bit red and he was clearly shivering.
IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE, DEFINITELY NOT A FEVER.
Takumi never imagined it to be possible, but there was actually someone more stubborn than himself and his elder brother, and that man lay helplessly before him. For someone he had previously deemed intelligent, it was painful to listen to him mutter and complain about trivial matters such as this. Becoming sick was only natural. His mother used to tell him that it was your bodies way of asking for help. If one did not become sick, they would never know their body needed something more. Sickness..was necessary for survival.
He extended his hand outwards to touch the butler’s forehead, checking his temperature while his guard was down. As expected, Joker had a temperature. With a little rest..he should feel better in no time, but it likely wouldn’t be easy to keep the other locked in here for too long.
❝ Don’t be stupid. It’s my duty to take responsibility. I..took you outside when you weren’t feeling well, so this is partially my fault. ❞
He stepped away from the bed before peering back over his shoulder, ❝ I will care for you until you’re able to take care of yourself. So long as you don’t leave this room, I won’t tell Corrin you’re sick and unable to fulfill your duties. I..often took care of Sakura when she fell ill, so..I’m positive I can help. ❞
