[Like wearing a hospital gown while undergoing a procedure that was literally just him shrinking, being in a bed after the fact feels more like a formality. His vitals don't need to be monitored, and the collar is off. He has the smallest concern about having some kind of implant in his neck that could self-destruct, but he's only ever felt pain because of what the collar did. With it currently locked up and no longer around his neck, he feels fine. Relief. He hasn't felt this much relief in a very long time.
And he's tiny, which isn't exactly a new experience for him. He's no chibi, like back home when the ten-year bazooka malfunctioned and made him small. He's got his regular proportions, but being on a pillow feels like being on the world's largest bed. He gets right up and walks over to the edge of the bed, peering over it.
That's a long way down.]
Heh-!
[He looks up with a smile and sits down, folding his legs up and shaking his head.]
I still have a lot of adrenaline from the procedure!
You look tired, Tenth. You want to lay down next to me?
[There's like... an entire bed. Gokudera will just occupy a space as big as Tsuna's hand, and that's if he spreads his arms and legs out like a little starfish.]
after all is said and done
