Bio: Erik's notably chilled out and seems to be bouncing back in his recovery, probably helped by trading out an adrenaline-pumping and future heart attack or stroke-inducing (or bullet-riddling) job with a quieter career. It might not be as "thrilling," and maybe it's still stressful, and remote work is kind of incongruent with his sociable nature but he'll probably deal with it. Probably.
At least he won't be totally lonely, now that's he's back with his twice-over honey bunny. emotion_bigheart gaia_star
