[No one is immune to it. Not even this guy. Usually, it's over the arm. Over people staring at it and poking at it, but -- your hair's not white anymore has a lot of connotations he isn't sure he wants to think about. What if the fluff is just the start? What if he wakes up tomorrow and it's spread?]

[He grimaces, but doesn't pull away when Lance performs his examination. Just looks resigned.] Great. I look bad with haircuts. It takes months to get this look.

[He moves to sit on the edge of the tub.]

I'll pay you back. Thank you.
