TG: sure thing

TG: i wont take long then

TG: be seeing you in a bit

He finishes his slice and turns everything off, groaning as he starts moving, but trusting it will get better.

🌀

CA: ill unlock the door for you

CA: see you in a bit

He managed to get himself up to shuffle to the front door and unlock it. It took him longer than probably necessary, but soon enough he was curled up again in the exact same spot as early. He'd moved his laptop to the side, and was staring absently at his hand. He wasn't even wearing his rings.

●

He dropped by the store on his way t Eridan's house, and he's pretty sure he just spent fifteen dollars on sweets. Well, fifteen dollars well spent.

He takes a while to get to his destination, but twenty minutes later he's there.

He knocks, and walks in, closing the door behind himself. "Wakey wakey cookies and Davey."

2015-08-22 14:05:46

🌀

He wasn't asleep, but wasn't fully awake. More dozing. He blinked when he heard Dave, his fin flicking but otherwise he didn't make any other movement. He wanted to get up and hug him and say hi and make sure his side was healing but it was just...

Hard.

And took far too much effort.

So he just stayed curled up and hoped Dave would come his way.

2015-08-22 14:08:02

●

Dave did come looking for him when Eridan didn't answer. He checked the living room first, and was lucky enough to find him, a bag full of cookies and cakes with all sorts of fillings in hand. "Hey babe. You alright?" He sat down next to Eridan, petting his hair.

2015-08-22 14:10:46

🌀

He blinked when he petted his hair, not turning his head yet. His fin flicked at his voice, and after a few seconds managed a small nod and a hum. He was lying on his side, staring at the tv almost blankly. He wondered idly what sort of sweets he got.

2015-08-22 14:12:49

●

He leans down and kisses his temple, a bit worried. He feels tempted to ask, but it's probably about Karkat.

"I bought you lotsa stuff with chocolate and sweet stuff. What are you feeling like having?"

2015-08-22 14:15:18

🌀

He glanced at him, acknowledging the kiss before his gaze turned back to the tv.

He took a bit to answer, realising that he wasn't hungry now and probably wouldn't be for a bit and just made Dave go out and get food for him that he might not even eat while he was here.

Ah shit.

"... Can you put it in the kitchen? I'll... Have something in a bit."

2015-08-22 14:17:51

●

He nods, getting up right away, and taking a while to put the food away properly before coming back.

He sat down again, continuing to pet his hair. "You sure you're alright?"

2015-08-22 14:20:04

🌀

He'd curled up a bit more by the time he'd come back. He still nodded, reaching out with a hand to lightly pat at whatever bit of Dave he could reach. "Don't worry about it."

2015-08-22 14:22:08

●

He sighs a little, but nods. He did say he wasn't going to be talkative. "If you need to talk about something, I'm letting you know that my ears have signed a contract with your mouth in how they'll listen to everything."

He then shuts up, not wanting to be a bother, and keeps playing with his hair.

2015-08-22 14:25:46

🌀

He didn't say anything to that, just hummed softly even though it was a ridicules analogy and deserved a wordy remark in return.

He eventually moved, uncurling slowly, almost hesitantly and ending up with his head on Dave's lap. He didn't move much after that, not even really blinking.

2015-08-22 14:28:26

●

He is happy that Eridan's head is on his lap now, and more than glad to pet his hair with one hand, the other resting on his shoulder.

2015-08-22 14:30:14

🌀

Eridan contemplated rolling over enough so that he could at least look at him. Even if was just at his stomach or chest or so instead of his face.

The thought of moving made him hunch just the slightest and he quickly dismissed the idea. No, better to stay staring at nothing.

2015-08-22 14:32:29

●

"You want me to put on a movie? We could watch a Harry Potter marathon."

2015-08-22 14:34:17

🌀

"... No I'm fine." He twitched, resettling himself the tiniest bit. "You can. If you really want to." He blinked slowly, "Don't care really."

2015-08-22 14:35:51

●

He wrinkled his nose a little, now more than a bit worried. "Eridan, talk to me please. Tell me what's up, its cool. I'm worried."

2015-08-22 14:37:24

🌀

He pulled away from him, curling up on himself with his head now on the couch cushions. He wanted to just lie there, not talk or be fucking hated or worried about.

"I told you not to worry."

2015-08-22 23:10:16

●

He sighed softly. "Want me to leave? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have showed up if you didn't want to see me."

2015-08-22 23:23:48

🌀

He made a soft distressed noise, one hand grabbing Dave's knee as the other clenched tight in his hair. He stayed curled up, and shut his eyes tightly as if that would make everything disappear and leave him alone.

He didn't want Dave to leave though.

2015-08-22 23:28:57

●

Dave had no idea of what he could do, so he did the best he managed.

Moving Eridan's hand away, Dave moved to lay down behind him, and draped an arm over his middle, resting there as he held Eridan in silence

2015-08-22 23:37:16

🌀

He twisted in his grip, hiding his face against Dave's chest. He didn't many any other move, and his hands were clenched tight in the fabric of his shirt. His fins were pinned back and quivering slightly.

2015-08-22 23:43:06

●

He nuzzled his hair a little, attempting to soothe him, holding him a bit tighter.

2015-08-22 23:44:16

🌀

He pressed his forehead harder to his chest, making another soft whine of distress.
