#javier: I GOTTA PEE ASSHOLE

[javierduffy]

Aaaaa ok Javier breaks a leg or smth and has to be on bed rest for like a month and he’s SO BORED he lets Kieran teach him how to knit and ends up making an ENTIRE quilt and sweaters for all their cats

YA ..... javier "i do my own stunts" escuella would 400% go out and literally 'break a leg'

once diagnosed w 'leg machine broke' syndrome, he calls kieran at like 11:45pm and goes through the whole, "hey baby-- yes everything's alright- i'm at the hospital- yes i'm the one in the hospital. ive been here for a little while. everything is okay i just- well i broke my leg. yeah screwed up a stunt. yeah i'm alright i can barely feel it anymore. okay-- okay, i'll see you in a little bit. love you too, bye."

one week into his government issued bed prison instatement, javier feels like he's going crazy; there's only so much social media that even he can absorb. more hours than not, kieran is out tending to the animals or cleaning or something or other, peeking in every so often to make sure javier is doing as he's told (he's caught him trying to hobble out of bed by himself before, pulled an "i'm not mad just disappointed" and javier skulked back into bed like a chastised pup). though during his free time, he'll sit contently next to his bf in bed and knit. usually they either sit in comfortable silence, or just talk abt random topics, but every now and then javier'll ask abt what kieran's knitting/how he's doing it/if it's as easy or boring as it looks, and kieran excitedly answers, rarely looking up from his needles.

soon enough, javier's got his own set of needles and is watching intently as kieran demonstrates how to fold the yarn and where to twist to ensure it'll come out looking how u want it to. now ... javier is a very fast learner, has it down almost completely in the first day, and all he basically does since then is knit. cat sweaters, kieran sweaters, charles and arthur sweaters, quilts, his whole bedside floor is covered soon enough and kieran couldn't be prouder.
