Jasper listed to Kate, trying hard not to pull his hand back immediately. He had relaxed a fraction listening to her but tensed up when he was asked to close his eyes. His breathing increased in speed a bit as his mind went through every worst case scenario it could process. When Kate didn't make any moves against him he forced himself to calm down, even just a little. He took once last glance at Kate before slowly closing his eyes.<br/><br/>At first he only felt a small bit of warmth which wasn't all that bad, it was when it increased in intensity that he began having doubts again and wanted to pull away. He shifted his shoulders as he felt the bruises across them heal, similar to the numerous other small cuts around his body. When Kate next spoke he jumped a little, his eyes opening to look at her. He merely nodded when she asked if he felt better -- he did, better than he had in a long time. The thought of walking wasn't a concern, he had walked with broken bones before, walking now seemed like an easy feat...bathing on the other hand was another story. The feline side of him protested the idea, rejecting the idea of water, but the other side of him longed for it. This inner turmoil lasted a few moments, ending in a slight huff of annoyance at himself. Nightmares though? Could he tell Kate that yes, he did suffer from nightmares? Every night in fact? No, better to keep that part of himself hidden away, at least for now.<br/><br/>Carefully he moved his legs out from under himself, stretching slightly -- amazed at the lack of pain he felt. He also hadn't realized how tired he was but with food in his stomach and the majority of his aches gone his exhaustion was begin to show with the way he held himself and the yawn he attempted to stifle.
