Not sure on how long. I think originally we said a week, and then extended it to two, I think that would probably work, if it lasts about a week, and they're coming up to maybe six days, he's making progress but he's not where Stick wants him to be yet, so he gives him some more because he doesn't want his sight to start coming back, or that would spoil the illusion.
I was originally thinking it would last much less time than that, like maybe he has to give him some every day, but there's no way Mike wouldn't put two and two together and refuse to drink it.
You think there's a risk it's permanent? That adds a whole new and scary dimension to the whole thing! What about when he's an adult and Stick makes him drink it again? Does he know that when he does?
Definitely on the blindfolded training. And maybe Mike complains about it one day and Stick offers him the tea as an alternative. He doesn't complain after that.
Yes, he's been there, but Matt doesn't know it. He can't tell him. It's not because Stick told him not to, he just knows exactly what Matt would say. Plus, he really doesn't want to talk about it. Instead, the way he acts around Matt changes subtly. He understands Matt's need for touch, he can explain things in a way Matt understands. Maybe he understands more how capable Matt is too, so he stops being so careful around him. This might be where the label switching starts! :-)
