Sorry Atreyun, but there are some things that are easier to show than explain. Which means he has to get up so he can show them. Besides, he can make his way around his apartment well enough. Oh, everything is still horribly painful (a little more so, even, since he hasn't really moved much since leaving the book store) but he can get around well enough. It's not like his apartment is too big that he has to do a lot of walking to get from one place to another.

"That one isn't for bathing." Akihito shuts the water off and moves to the opposite side of the bathroom where the bathtub sits against the wall. He sits on the edge of it (he can get around, but standing and walking are both incredibly exhausting) before leaning down to put the stopper in the drain. "I have a bathtub for bathing. It has the same taps at the sink does," he explains, pointing to the silver fixtures on the tub that match those on the sink.
