This wasn't entirely a lie; he'd definitely been worse. But at the same time, it was kind of a lie. His unwillingness to sleep had given him a splitting headache, and he had to make a conscious effort to stay focused on anything for more than half a second, but at least he was conscious. That was a start, if not a particularly impressive one. [color=dodgerblue]"What about you? How's everything going?"[/color] He finished, trying to get the subject off of himself as quickly as possible. He didn't really want to give Ray any time to question the truthfulness of his last statement. Besides, he actually was kind of curious as to how Ray had been faring. They didn't often get a chance to talk, as there was always a lot to be done around Newnan. He shifted his position slightly, trying to make sure the dog was comfortable. [i]Was Peaches always this heavy?[/i] He thought to himself, frowning slightly. He had to give Peaches some props for staying relatively still. She was a good dog, though Ciel supposed she had to be, otherwise someone probably would've eaten her by now. Anyway, her presence at Newnan was far from unappreciated.
