    Summary

    Sometimes, when he’s working inside the garden, his brain tends to… do things he doesn’t like. The soil running along his palms will look wrong, especially if it was damp, darkened from the water he’ll pour on top of the plants. His tongue will dry and his mouth will start to taste like dirt, even though his head was nowhere near the plots.

    He’ll panic, and his mind will start to wander, tricking his body into thinking he’s someplace he’s not. Then he’ll step away, let his mind recover and remind himself that he’s here now, not there. Peter wouldn’t feel like gardening for the rest of the day then, opting for a shower to get rid of the dirt that’s not even clung onto him.

    “Shut up,” Peter mumbles to himself, flipping the beef to cook for another minute longer.

     

    Or: Peter recovers and makes amends, but no one told him it’d be this difficult.
