Io wasn't good at breathing. He was always jittery, always stuttery, always coughing up sulfur or sulfur dioxide, always gasping for breath. More often than not, sick. It wasn't anyone's fault. He knew Jupiter, Ganymede, and Europa often felt guilty about it- but there was no need! Not their fault his surface was weird. He was used to it. Sure, it sucked. The squeezing of his throat, the rock that settled in his chest and prevented him from breathing, the little tickle that wouldn't grant him a break, and started coughing fits. Or the pain around his back and chest after, the way that when he could finally breathe, his body heated up and he grew feverish instead- but he was used to it now! So it was all good! Io was just glad it wasn't someone else. "-Or anyone to make it easier, I don't know!" "We need Jupiter, Europa." Callisto calmly cut in, though Io did not miss the concerned gaze that came his way. Or The symptoms Io shows during his sick episodes resemble the Earthling malfunction some are unfortunately are born with- but thankfully, have an aid for.
