of botanical definitions

“Did you know that strawberries and blueberries aren’t really berries?”“Oh, really?” Martin pulled out the chair that had been designated for him, marked by the silverware and plate that Jon had set out for him, sounding genuinely interested.“They’re not! People just call them that because it’s easier, I guess,” As Jonathan continued to speak, sharing this incredibly specific piece of information that he just knew, his voice got a little louder and less-steady sounding, “Bananas and watermelons are technically berries, by the botanical definition.”It was sweet, watching Jonathan try to pronounce some of those bigger words by breaking them up while he was so excited about sharing the fact that his voice got quicker, which caused this effect of him tripping over his words just slightly.--Jonathan ends up regressing after playfully refusing to get out of bed and all of the teasing that comes of it, and the day that follows is nothing but perfect despite obstacles like insistent body pain getting in his way.
