Week 1, Wednesday - Sandalphon

[Ion's been waiting around in their room for Sandalphon. It's gotten so cold outside, staying in has been the easiest way to keep warm. There's the paranoia too, of course, but he hasn't been moving, so throughout the day if Sandalphon checked on him, there wouldn't have been anything to worry about.

Except, suddenly, when he's back again...]

Before you get upset!

[He turns toward the door and there's a series of scars running down the side of his face. There were definitely not there just earlier in the day.]

Nothing happened!

Week 1, Wednesday - Ion

["Do you have a moment" has turned into Ion's stock greeting with his Original, so when he approaches him in the Earth common room, he just comes out with it.]

I thought I should let you know about this right away.

[The "this" he's referring to being the series of scars that's running down one side of his face and dips below his collar, suggesting it trails down his body where it can't be seen.]

It seemed wrong for you to discover it organically when we next run into one another accidentally.
