He didn't know how long he slept for, but the pain woke him back up. The aches in his muscles and the stabbing pains of the burns and the scratches. He held still once he was completely awake, not wanting to disturb his comfortable pillow just yet.

●

He was pretty easy to wake up, as he had stated before, Dave having somehow managed not to wrap himself around Eridan.

He should however go take a painkiller

2015-08-12 11:23:10

🌀

He lifted his head slowly, making sure not to accidentally jab Dave with his horns as he pushed himself to sit up, and from there actually stand and go find something for the pain. He stumbled to the bathroom, one hand pressed to his forehead.

2015-08-12 11:24:49

●

Dave woke up as he moved, though he just watched him, unsure of what he'd do. "You okay?" He eventually calls out, getting up to check on him.

2015-08-12 11:26:38

🌀

"M'fine." He'd sat down on the side of the bath, holding a cup half filled with water and squinting down at the floor. He'd taken two tablets to try and alleviate the pain, hoping it would start working quickly.

2015-08-12 11:30:04

●

He leaned against he door frame, rubbing his eyes a little. "Give it five minutes, those act up quickly." He mutters after looking at the brand.

2015-08-12 11:32:24

🌀

He nodded his head then winced, rubbing at his eyes and grumbling. He waved a hand at Dave, "go back an' sleep a bit more." He stood to grab the roll of bandages and the rest of the stuff he'd need to clean his wounds and bandage himself back up again.

2015-08-12 11:34:02

●

"I'm pretty awake, it's fine. And you should probably wait for them to act up before you switch the bandages" he says softly, staying there to check how bad it was when he took off his shirt.

2015-08-12 11:35:55

🌀

He just shook his head, covering a yawn in the crook of his elbow. He fiddled with the bottom of his shirt, waiting to see if Dave would go. He didn't exactly want him to see how much he'd been hurt, but he also needed to change the bandages and the ones on his back would be easier with Dave's help.

2015-08-12 11:38:45

●

He stuck around, rubbing his eyes again. He just waited, though he saw clear hesitation in his eyes.

2015-08-12 11:40:31

🌀

He didn't look at him when he finally took off his shirt. He immediately started removing the bandages, revealing the angry looking burn marks and scratches.

2015-08-12 11:42:26

●

Dave's eyes dance all over his injuries, feeling a pang of guilt at each new burn or deep scratch he saw. Those were his fault. He got Eridan hurt.

Sighing a little, he stepped closer, kissing the back of his neck. "I'll help with the ones on your back."

2015-08-12 11:44:30

🌀

He tilted his head forward a bit at the kiss, closing his eyes. He nodded and handed him a damp washcloth so that he could clean whatever blood had started again from the wounds on his back. "Don't beat yourself up over this Dave."

2015-08-12 11:47:35

●

He stayed quiet, taking the cloth. He'd feel even worse if he didn't help somehow.

He kissed his shoulder before stepping back, applying the damp cloth to his back gently.

2015-08-12 11:49:37

🌀

He twitched a bit when the cloth caught on the edge of a deep scratch. He reached back to press a hand to Dave's cheek, looking at him in the bathroom mirror. "I mean it. Don't worry about this Dave." He stroked his cheek gently before starting to work on his chest, taking his time and having to stop repeatedly.

2015-08-12 11:53:00

●

Dave glanced up to meet his gaze for only a second before he was back to the task at hand, feeling like a piece of shit, which was pretty selfish of him.

He moved the cloth over the wounds, being extremely gentle, taking his time.

2015-08-12 11:55:07

🌀

He'll get back to that topic after he was patched up. He carefully started applying a burn cream to the prominent hand shaped burn on his chest, chewing on his lip in order to try and distract himself from possibly making a noise.

2015-08-12 11:57:43

●

He kept pressing small kisses to his skin, where he wasn't hurt, sighing softly. He too grabbed the cream, squeezing some of its contents on his fingers. "This is going to hurt a little."

2015-08-12 11:59:33

🌀

"It's not gonna make it hurt any less." He leaned forward, bracing a hand against the sink as he waited for Dave to put the cream on his back. He grit his teeth hard as he started, shoulders tensing.

2015-08-12 20:53:26

●

He tried to be both gentle and mildly quick about it, not wanting for this t drag out, but it still took him a minute or two to apply everything. "There, its done."

2015-08-12 20:56:07

🌀

His hands were shaking a bit when he sat back up and placed the cream back on the counter. He tooks a few seconds before reaching for the big bandage patches he'd gotten. He handed a few to Dave for the wounds on his back before starting on his front.

2015-08-12 20:59:25

●

Dave took them, being more careful about placing the bandages, but by the time he was done, the painkillers should have started to kick in

2015-08-12 21:04:01

🌀

He was done with his chest faster than Dave was done with his back, not caring about minimising the pain as much as he was. He started on his shark-bite hand, just running an antiseptic wipe over his other hand. He'd bought the tape he needed for that, and set about cleaning and patching up his hand.

2015-08-12 21:06:30

●

He sighed silently, looking him over once he was done. He was going to have to take care of those pieces of shit for a long time.

2015-08-12 21:09:05

🌀

He stood up once he was done, checking his chest over then his back before looking back up at Dave. He turned around to hug him, sighing softly.
