[Unavoidably, Chris's hand shakes as he takes the cup from Frankie, making sure he gets a hold of it. He doesn't want to drop it. But he is very seriously thinking about what would happen if he just didn't drink it.
He could deal, right? Stay out of the sun, keep going on bagged stuff? He likes the sun, though, and he doesn't like avoiding work because people make him uncomfortable now. He especially can't stand the idea of Ray still being wary of him, or for that matter, what Ray would say if he found out that Chris had held a cup full of the cure in his hand and refused to drink it because he was scared.]
I-I should prob'ly sit down, then, yeah? [He smiles weakly. His attempt at a joke.]
