Celeste's advice was solid, and he was getting into his own head way too much. Taking a deep breath like the petite redhead had told him, he let it out and tried to relax- as much as he could with his body rigged up the way it was. Surprisingly, he found that if he focused on her- her words, her voice, her lips- it was a lot easier to forget his feelings of emasculation and tell himself that what she was doing was her job, and something he needed her to do. Moving forward, Chambers needed to start accepting his circumstances and doing what he could to make the best of it. This woman disrobing him while he was practically immobile removed every last vestige from him. Never in his adult life did Jason imagine being this physically vulnerable before, but he was becoming comfortable with it- with her at least.

"Food... I haven't had anything to eat really in forever," he admitted as she soaped his naked torso, "I'll have to take your recommendation. Medium rare sounds good too. I don't know how much of it I'll be able to finish, but it's worth a shot if you'll help me eat it. Probably better to cut it up and use a fork, though- just the burger, I mean, not the fries."

With a smile, the patient closed his eyes and tried again to relax while this woman bathed him with a warm cloth. As he grew more accustom to it, the more difficult of a time he found he was having not being aroused. If he weren't basically helpless, he might have made a pass at her.

"Ah, which tattoo is that?" he wondered, bringing himself back to the moment, "The Japanese symbols down the back of my neck read 'Mugen no Jyuunin' which translates to 'Inhabitant of Infinity.' Kind of a play on immortality- which I guess rings true after surviving an ordeal like the one that put me here. I think I'd like to see any you have to show me. I figure it's only fair since you're seeing more of me than any other girl before the end of the first date."
