Eddie & Bryn, tw: blood and near death, anxiety, guilt, death
Both of Eddie's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Holy Jesus fucking Christ. You have just passed my ability to think of sex at any time. Hell, you might have passed Richie." And run a few metaphorical laps around both of them. Hie last words might have been a your mom joke, but that was really about their bond. He shook his head, not that she could see it. "I wouldn't let you drag me so don't try even if you get surge of adrenaline." More bossiness, hell, that might be a bad idea. He took a few breaths. "Besides, I meant what I said back at the restaurant. It was about more than sex with me."
"You've gone and done it now. I'm gonna google sword accidents when this is over and send you a list of like a hundred things that could go wrong when learning to use a sword." Eddie promised. If nothing else, things could be normal between them and that was his normal. "Throwing a spear can get to your opponent quicker if you need to save a friend too. Do vikings use spears?" He gave her a quick smirk. "Oh, come on, you know I have flashlights and batteries. Mechanical operated flashlights too. And head lamps of course. That way you keep your hands free. I just don't have my kit."
"Are you sure? About the feeding?" Eddie asked. "People need zinc, protein, iron, vitamins A, vitamin C, for wound healing. Maybe that's why your wounds aren't coming together. You need to eat." He started rolling up his left sleeve. "Of course you need to stay awake. You lost a lot of blood. Feeding will help with that too." Maybe? He wasn't an expert on how vampires' bodies worked. It seemed logical and he'd be doing something.
