Thread 4: Surprise guest (newheroblack)

[So a couple of days after the whole ferris wheel fiasco (which he's trying to forget overall, thank you very much), Gold's in his kitchen baking poffins for his mons while Sapphire's out]

Comments

[His eye lids are half lowered but they have a slight glint in them? He's still wordless but speaking through body language instead. He's finishing his tea, it feels soothing on his throat.]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

Might've been a better idea to just avoid each other, but...
I don't want to make him sad. And besides, I don't really want to either.

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[He leans on the palm of his hand.]
I don't either but I don't see why we have to force incompatible relations with each other.

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

Who said it was incompatible? We get along fine when we're not trying to prove we're the best at everything.
Somehow we keep coming to talk to each other even after fall-outs. Must mean something, right?

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

It's dysfunctional and it's dysfunctional to the people around us. People not on great terms talk to the other time from time.

[He leans back, his face is still flushed.]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

Aren't we dysfunctional anyway? We'll need to get over some things one way or the other, might as well start now.
I want to try, Touya. No matter what you think, I see you as a friend.
[and then he looks you in the eye and notice the flush and position]
... shit d'you have a fever?

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[He's looking up a bit before he answers] Yes, I have a fever.

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

Shit, I don't even have any aspirin... You should probably get back to sleep. Want to drop on the bed? I don't think he'd take the entire space.
... no wait you're probably contagious.
[eyerub, this is a headache]

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[He has a raspy chuckle at 'wait no you're contagious' though true...something was funny. Probably fever induced laughter.]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[raising an eyebrow] What's so funny?

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT FEVERS CAN DO MAN. Chuckle]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[sigh]
... you need to sleep. Badly.
[and he stands to try and push you back in a sleeping position]

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

I'd sleep better if I was at home.

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

You're in no state to go home, idiot. You'll go when you can actually stand and you and the kid get some rest.

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[You get a weak whap in the face for the idiot comment. But he plops over on his side afterward. Huff.]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[Whatever, man, he'd troll back but you're sick. Just heaping covers back on you]

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[He pants] That makes me hot.

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

It's supposed to. I'll get you something for your face if you want, but you need to sweat that fever off.

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

Ugh.
[His eye brows twitch as he lays down. He's itching to peel those covers off but Gold will just bitch at him about it.]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[and he gets you a damp face cloth and hands it over.
Damn, he kinda wants to sleep now, but both his bed and couch are taken. Sob]

[mr-neutral.livejournal.com]

[Sorry bro, this one's going back to sleep now.]

[ngenuous.livejournal.com]

[Gold, you have another visitor. Are you sleeping or are you a zombie?]

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[Zombie, man]

[ngenuous.livejournal.com]

[Too zombie to hear knocking on your door?]

1/2

[stalkerwithacap.livejournal.com]

[Nope. He gets up from his chair with a groan and stretches for a second before coming to open the door]
