He held Eridan close, rubbing along his arm, and nosing his hair a little. "I'm sorry. I'm just dumb like that sometimes. Guess it comes with the whole Dave package." He laughs softly, trying to lift the mood. "I'll try not to do it."

"You couldn't've known I would have a nightmare or if I would be awake. It was just... It was scary. I thought you were dead and I thought they took you and my dream was vivid." He shuddered and squeezed closer to Dave.

2015-10-04 11:18:49

●

"Well, I'm here now, and I'm sorry for worrying you. Everything is fine." He grabbed a blanket, wrapping it around Eridan. "It was the second time you had it, wasn't it?"

2015-10-04 11:20:52

🌀

He nodded, cheek dragging against his chest. "Maybe I should try sleeping pills again. Or see if they've made anything that stops dreams." He'd already made his decision on stopping the nightmares. Go back to what he's always done, just don't sleep. He wasn't going to tell Dave that though. It would just make him worry.

●

He nodded, finding that reasonable. "Sure, that sounds like a good idea." He mutters, kissing the top of his head. "They probably have something for it. There's always a thing for everything nowadays."

2015-10-04 11:26:34

🌀

He nodded, tugging the blanket closer to himself and sighing softly. "You should go take a painkiller or something. Maybe go back to sleep. Did you sleep at all earlier?"

2015-10-04 11:30:12

●

"You're the one that should be taking painkillers here, though I'll take one myself." He nods. "And yeah, I probably slept more than you, really."

2015-10-04 11:32:29

🌀

"You're in more pain than me at the moment." He didn't know that for sure, but he knew a lot how much psionic burn hurt and Dave had a big one. Eridan wasn't fussed about himself though, and couldn't be bothered to swallow down another pill.

2015-10-04 11:34:18

●

Dave would have to use the most childish tactic in the book now. "I won't take anything if you don't." He's literally 6 years old right now.

2015-10-04 11:35:19

🌀

Eridan just lifted his head to look at him, eyebrow raised more sassy and 'yeah right' than Dame Maggie Smith. "Go take the pill Dave."

2015-10-04 11:36:32

●

"I'm serious, I will legit not take anything if you don't." He raises his eyebrow right the fuck back.

2015-10-04 11:37:33

🌀

He shrugged, moving off of his lap to go to the kitchen to get a drink. "Fine, be in pain then. It's gonna start hurting like a real bitch soon though."

2015-10-04 11:41:36

●

"Good to know you worry about me." He called out. He's a stubborn fuck, Dave won't do it. Besides, his adrenaline levels are still high, so it isn't hurting too bad.

2015-10-04 11:46:36

🌀

"I just had to calm myself down over worrying about you." He shot back. He ended up drinking two glasses of water, hands still shaking as his panic wears off and is replaced by the pain from his wounds. But Eridan's about as stubborn as Dave, if not more so he's not gonna take anything.

2015-10-04 11:48:47

●

Dave rolls his eyes, and crosses his arms. "I'm gonna order food! Want anything?"

2015-10-04 11:50:02

🌀

"Nah I'm fine. I'm not hungry." Despite the last thing he ate being that one piece of chocolate, he really wasn't hungry. If he felt peckish he'll just steal a little of whatever Dave ends up having.

2015-10-04 11:51:27

●

Dave grabs his phone, and orders a nice cheesy pizza. Extra cheese is life.

As he waits for the pizza, his adrenaline levels start going down, and by the time he has to get the door he's wincing at every step.

Needless to say that the delivery boy was pretty shocked with Dave's state, but he left quickly. Dave then decided to curl up on the couch with AJ as he ate, trying to ignore the pain.

2015-10-04 11:53:37

🌀

Eridan had the foresight to dump a nice heap of blankets on the couch while Eridan got the pizza. He'd seen Dave wincing his way to couch, and hurried to go get one of the painkillers and a glass of water for him. Screw whatever he said, Dave's taking one now.

He held it out to Dave, not going to take any variation of no for an answer.

2015-10-04 11:55:21

●

Dave was just stuffing food in his mouth though, refusing to take anything before Eridan.

2015-10-04 11:56:25

🌀

So Eridan took the pizza box (all remaining slices of pizza included) and held it high above his head. He didn't say anything, just held the pill out to Dave and gestured with his head for him to take it.

2015-10-04 11:59:12

●

Dave crossed his arms, looking up at him challengingly. "Take it. I'll take one after you."

2015-10-04 11:59:43

🌀

"Dave, take the pill." He was going to end up eating cold pizza at this point. Eridan tried a new tactic. His fins drooped and his expression softened a little. "Please? I'll take one after, and I wont even move for the rest of the day."

2015-10-04 12:04:02

●

"I won't change my demands, you take one first, and I take one right after you."

2015-10-04 12:04:54

🌀

He shrugged, putting the pizza and the pill down on the coffee table. "Fine. I'm going to the store, all my chocolates almost gone. Do you need anything?" He headed to grab his keys and his wallet, checking the kitchen again and made a note to also buy bread.

2015-10-04 12:07:27

●

Dave shot right up, and blocked the door himself, wincing all the way. "Oh hell no, you need to lay down, you ain't going outside."
