Day 221 — Morning mingle : Main shelter
[Wake up and smell the lack of coffee. You're on a bunk bed. Maybe you're a top and maybe you're a bottom. There are five other people in your room. Maybe they're friends or enemies or faces you barely recognize if at all. It doesn't matter much. You can leave this room and you don't need to come back to it.

You should get your rations though. You're probably hungry. You're definitely a little sluggish of body. What happened to that bruise you got sparing yesterday? What happened to your newly dyed hair? Mystery, mystery... Move along. Find the public bathrooms and do your business with a hundred of your closest friends.

Find the kiosk and get your rations. Careful not to let anyone steal them. You won't get more until tomorrow and the bots won't care. They aren't here to hold your hand. If you get sick or hurt and they deem it necessary they will take you to the hospital whether you wish it or not. But why dwell on such things? You're here now and you might as well enjoy it. You even get a free day today.]

(OOC: OOC info. This mingle takes place in the Main shelter over the morning hours.

[A lump forms in his throat as her arms wrap around him. He's not sure how much she understands from his words, but he can tell she gets at least the basics of it. His own arms return the embrace, holding her gently as her head buries into his chest.]

I know. It's taken me a long time, but I know.

[Eyes closing, he rests his cheek against the top of her head as he speaks.]

I understand your confusion. Your hesitation. I know how much you've struggled against these feelings.

But I won't trust anyone else with your smile anymore. I made that mistake before and it almost completely snuffed out your light.

[Eyes closing, she remains still within his embrace. Until recently it had been so long since she'd been able to take genuine comfort in his presence. Yet it's so easy to slip into. Here like this, putting aside the differences between who and what they are, she can feel at ease. For a moment, she simply allows the warmth of his arms to surround her and breathes him in.

No matter where they are, from now on things will be different between them.]

I wont be a cause of worry for you anymore, okay? From now on lets just focus on the present.

	[He's just grateful she hasn't pulled away from him yet. She's not running away for the moment and is beginning to face the reality of everything.] You aren't a burden, Yuuki. You never have been. [Arms giving her a slight squeeze of support, he relishes in the warmth of her body against him.] I wouldn't be myself if I wasn't worried about you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[A nod... and pause, as she goes over those words. He's always worried about and protected her. But-

Pulling back she looks up at him seriously, catching his gaze. Allow her this, all right, Zero?]

In return, you have to allow me to worry over and protect you too. [Not just sit on the sidelines if he might be in danger, or be sent home if more power is needed.]

Zero- [Grip tightens as she pleads] You have to let me help and to watch over you as well.

[To be honest, that sort of sets him back on his heels a little because...]

Isn't that the one thing we don't have to worry about?

[For as messed up as their relationship has been during the years that is one thing that never really failed them. Because of this very thing, they were probably able to be here now.]

Even when we were enemies, we stupidly did things to protect and help each other. Even when we didn't need to.

Our relationship might never have recovered in the way that it has if it wasn't for that one thing. For everything we've done wrong, I know that's something we've always done right.

	[Quiet, staring up at him. After a moment she nods, and her grip loosens. That's right. Really... that's how it's always been between them. Even if, at times, she hasn't always done what is right by way of it.] Of course... [A second nod. She seems satisfied, somehow, by having it all reaffirmed.] Good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He gives her a slight smile, glad she seemingly has calmed down a little from the anxiety she was feeling about everything originally. He's had to reassure her several times of the same things over the last couple of days. She's not to blame. Everything with them is fine. He wants to be by her side. She's not the reason for the parts of himself he's always hated.

He'll reassure her as many times as he needs to until she understands. Until it gets through. Until she believes it.]

All better now?

	I'm fine. [A nod. She doesn't really want to make a big deal about things.] In the end, we should focus on making sure everyone made it here safely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She's right, so he begins to detangle himself from her a little so they can do just that.] Well there isn't anyone on the communicator complaining about their outfit yet, so that makes things a little harder. [Because...that's what he's expecting.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2013-05-31 08:08 pm UTC (link)
	It's not the jumpsuit that bothers me. So much as... [Er...] Never mind. Hopefully we can find some different clothes. You're right about the complaints. It's sort of quiet over the communicators. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-05-31 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	...[No no. Please. Continue. He's amused at your reaction and gets it immediately.] So much as what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2013-05-31 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	I-It's nothing...! Forget it, I was just getting derailed. [Because she's not going to mention a lack of undergarments to him, okay!!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-06-01 01:27 am UTC (link)
	No, I'm curious now. You can't just leave it like that. [Stop trying to avoid it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Did they take your bra too? I can understand you'd be irritated with them stealing your panties, but it's not like you need the bra. [Best. Boyfriend. Ever.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ OHMYGOD. Not only has he said the word panties in context to her own but he mentioned her bra too...!] What are you...!? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	*IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!* [Covering up her chest while shoving him away, because he's not looking at her and making these assertions, is he!? A-Anyway she HAS grown a little! ... A little still counts for something!!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's always looked. There's just...more to look at now. You haven't quite realized yet that it means that Zero isn't wearing any either, have you? He's lucky your powers are restricted right now or he might have gone flying.] Maybe you could ask for some at the kiosk? They don't seem very accommodating here though, that probably won't work.
