Joe didn't think anything he did accounted for bullshit but he could tell Stardust's old man and Aarne were worried the whole time and that made him think. If his Fin were worried then he wouldn't do such a reckless thing again. What if he died? Shit. He didn't even think about that.
"Then, we should cook together sometime, Peachy. I can help you in the kitchen even if I am a shit cook."
The Brit laughed and squeezed Aarne's hand and then nudged against Minoru's shoulder because he wanted the parkourist to feel ok too. The journey was boring but Joe still felt like burning off energy as he often did when taking a vast amount of coke. The whole thing with the skyscraper still burnt into his mind.
"We should all cook then find a cool place to climb together. All three of us. No stupid high shit this time though. I don't want to die."
"I should make you something when we get back." Aarne had been worried and now he would cling to the Brit for awhile.
"Why don't we wait a few days before another climbing excursion?" Tom was trying to be sensible and give them all time to work out the emotions from the day.
Aarne only nodded at Tom like a child caught doing something wrong. He did lean up to look at Minoru. "Do you want me to bring dinner? I could could something for you and Ziggy to share."
Aarne remembered the singer being as manic as he had been but he had no idea if Stardust was worried for Joe or Minoru, or both.
Of course, by that time, Minoru would be long gone, back to work in the Nexus. He’d probably miss out on whatever ‘safer’ version of climbing they could think up.
Still, Minoru glanced over to give Aarne a half-hearted smile. “Yeah. That would be neat. I’d like that, and I bet he would too.”
It wasn’t hard to find something that both Ziggy and Minoru could share. A lot of Anthean-safe food involved vegetables. And the bands all knew the singer’s dietary restrictions by now, even if they didn’t know why he adhered to them.
“I’ll catch up with you, though. Unless Ziggy’s out front waiting grab me and hug me and not let go, I need a quick run or something to clear my head. It’s been a crazy night!”

This was the truth.

…he probably would be, though.
