He looked up at her while she seemed to be looking for words. He pulled the force around himself and forced it into the nerves in his wound to nullify the pain. He used his hands and lifted himself into a sitting position with a loud grunt. He could stand laying back like a vegetable anymore. ""But what," he asked quietly when he had finally relaxed into an upright posture.

Her eyes flicked over towards him, monitoring him for signs of exterior pain, though he seemed to be doing alright.
Of course he would be. That's what Jedi did.
Her gaze found its way to his again, and she gave a sort of bittersweet smile.
"But my home is here now. Or not even here precisely, but... you know," she said. "With the Jedi."

"So," he said. "You're saying I could have taken you to the training room and we'd have had a better time?" He had to give himself credit, the smile didn't cross his face for the first few moments after he spoke.
"We'll go back sometime," he promised her as he lightly rubbed her forearm, holding his breath.

Daphne looked at him for a second to see if he was joking. When he finally cracked, a wide smile broke across her own face and she started laughing.
"Ok, good one. And NO."
She appreciated his promise because, well, she knew he would keep it. He wasn't the type to make empty ones, that much she knew already.
"And this time we'll both come back intact," she said with a wink. "I totally think I should get Knighted for surviving that all, by the way."

"If you get Knighted then what the hell do I get," he asked jokingly. He looked around the room. "Ah. Apparently I get to stay in the most extravagant sweet within the temple."

"Hopefully not demoted?" she suggested helpfully.
"Or that," she grinned. "Maybe they'll just force you to personally keep me out of trouble. Since you've proven how good you are it."

Teagan laughed and shook his head. "Oh yeah, that could work," he said with a smile. "Next time you're in trouble I'll make sure I impale myself on a bus again."

"It's a deal," she said, with a curt nod, pushing herself off the bed with the palms of both hands. "So what's on the docket for today then? If you say sleeping, I will probably smack you."
Daphne made a face. "Though it's probably some sort of boring report-to-the-Council type thing, isn't it?"

"I'll take care of the report," he assured her. "But before I do that, I have an idea."
Teagan pulled heavily on the force and swung his legs out of bed. He closed his eyes and suppressed the pain as much as he could before he pushed off the bed and stood up. He opened his eyes, breathing heavily, as the force flowed freely from him in an impressive display of focus. "I seem to remember," he said between breaths. "A certain someone asking me to dance on a moving vehicle."

Daphne arched a pink brow in his direction.
"A certain someone did. However, a certain object of the request was in much better straits at the time. Can he possibly manage in his current... condition?" she teased.

"If I can use moving traffic as a set of stairs and catch you I think I can handle a quick dance," he said with another grunt of exasperation. "Admittedly I'm better at the former."

"Aw, don't be so down on yourself. I'm sure you've got other types of moves in there," she smirked, stepping towards him. "But what about music...? That's an important ingredient."

He looked around the room for some way to play music. Figures, he thought to himself. The one time I want Artoo to play some cheesy music he's not here.
He looked at Daphne and smiled apologetically. "Can't we just use our imaginations," he asked as he started to turn a shade of red again. Whether it was from his exertions, being shirtless - thankfully the medics had left him in a pair of hospital pants- or being nervous from what he was about to do Daphne wouldn't be able to tell. "I can't exactly move too much anyway."

"I suppose we can," she said happily. "Unless you're in the mood to sing too."
Now she was sort of hoping someone caught this on the security cam. Seeing sudden dancing in the med bay without any music should brighten anyone's day up.

He smiled sheepishly. "I'm nervous enough as it is," he remarked.
"Ok, um," he said as he raised his hands and put them down a few times and took a step closer to her. "How're we gonna start?" He was clearly nervous now as he kept having a hard time looking at Daphne.
