A vein popped up on Akari's forehead as his eye twitched, "Bubble. . . Gum. . . Man. . ?" He was tempted to strangle Georg but he restrained himself in case Marley wasn't as good hearted a person as he says.

The boy twitched as he slowly came to, "What happened. . ?" He looked around then saw Akari and paled again.

It had been what the child had called him after all. He was trying to prove a point though. Akari didn't seem to happy to hear it from him however. His attention pulled over to the child as he started waking back up. "And now you've wasted precious time. Way to go."

"You were the one making inappropriate comments." Akari sighed, "You need to try harder to stay alive. . .Because if you fall crucially ill, I will refuse to help you."
The boy looked to Georg, blinking, "Who? What? Where?" This was the usual saying that the boy said.

Groaning, the blond laid back against the floor, putting his hands over his face. "This.... this why isn't anything ever easy. I would think after everything that has happened to men at least one thing would be... kid just be good and let the doc help you will you."

"I'm not ' kid '. I'm Artemis. Idiot!" The boy hissed and sat up. Akari groaned and banged his head on the wall, "I may lose a few brain cells but. . ."

Pulling his hands away from his face he looked up at the kid, watching him for a moment. "Artemis, sorry habit of calling people younger then me kid. Can you please let the doc do what he needs to do."

"You mean the evil Bubblegum?" Akari's fist clenched, "You little. . ." He sighed, "Just let me scan you."
Artemis blinked, "Sure, just don't hurt me. . ." Akari was taken aback by the boy's sudden change.

Georg blinked a few times looking back and forth between the Akari and the kid. Seems Artimis was going to keep calling him bubblegum but he was going to let him do what he needed to do. "....Okay then."

Artemis picked up a rather adult themed magazine, reading it, "BDSM. . ? Sounds cool."

Akari cleared his throat and took the liberty of scanning Artemis whilst he was distracted.

Relaxing one more, he closed his eyes. He could have cared less what the kid was reading as long as he let Akari do what he had to do and get to a point where they could move on. As long as it was working out everything was fine for the time being.

Akari went to the computer to check what was causing Artemis discomfort.
The boy continued reading, blinking in interest.

The soldier pushed himself up after a bit, snatching the magazine from the boy to throw it in the trash before looking over towards Akari. "So?"

"Hey! I was--Never mind, pirate Jerkward!"

Akari looked at Georg, "I'm still checking. . ." He typed something on the computer.

Georg's eye turned over towards Artimis, his eye was a sore subject and now he was calling him names too. What was wrong with this kid. "...Don't start insulting the person who offered to help, I'll be just as glad to return you to the street and let you deal with it on your own."

"What? You help me? You're better than Bubblegum but seriously. . ."

"Kid, don't start with me, I'm not one you would want to make an enemy of now start behaving or I'll toss you out of here myself."

Artemis immediately shut up after Georg's threat, looking down, ". . .Sorry." Akari sighed and went to go and collect the paperwork for Artemis, as well as taking a break from Georg and the boy's arguing.

Georg crossed his arms over his chest, staring the boy down a bit longer before he was satisfied. "Good. At least you have some sense in you."

"I do have some sense in me, believe it or not." Artemis hissed but as soon as Akari walked in, he smiled kindly at the older man, "I have returned from the office. I'm surprised that you two are still in one piece after all that arguing you were doing."

Marley was asleep in the corner,his head in a book but as soon as Akari slammed the door shut after he had entered the room, walking over to his desk and placing the paperwork down. Marley sat up straight, rubbing his head, "Georg. . .Is Artemis fixed yet?" He asked, half-asleep. "If not, just happy slap him back to sanity." Artemis sighed.
