It had taken a lot longer for Riddick to recover than he thought. But no where near as long as Cylus who had suffered greater than he had. And he cursed himself for not getting their sooner, for not being stronger against Lestat. This damn Rage was a curse in times like that. But then… the Rage… Cylus was Furyan which was so odd. He was said to be the last. Yet.. He saw it with his on two eyes. The fact that he and Cylus joined together, their Rage’s mixing. It made what Riddick thought he was feeling, all that he thought he knew when it came to his First Among Commanders, ring true. It made it real.

And it scared him. Because as he finally regained his strength he was sitting by the bed, watching as Cylus peacefully slept. He wasn’t as pale as he was before. He was deep in color, the faint blue print still on his chest. And Riddick’s hand itched. He knew if he placed his hand on Vaako’s chest, the print would be a perfect match to his hand. It was freaking scary to him.

Closing his eyes, Riddick tried to relax, to focus. And it worked until a flash..an odd flash of a moment long ago came into his mind. A moment that he had forgotten until now and it unnerved him. He shook slightly and his eyes flew opened and he looked down at the sleeping man, focusing on him and no the image that flew into his mind and that was now trying to come further into the front, force Riddick to think about it. He refused. It was a mistake and a long time ago.

Standing, he moved to the bath to clean up, to make himself think about Vaako and the talk he knew was to come the moment he woke up. It was time to talk about all that went down. Maybe once they had the disturbing thoughts would go away. Riddick just needed to know if what he felt… was returned. It was like.. He didn’t have a choice. He honestly felt he didn’t have a choice in how he felt. And he wasn’t sure he liked it though it did just feel natural.

His first thought when he felt how Riddick's hands were shaking was that he must be cold. It was hard to imagine this strong, emotionally reserved man shaking for anything but physical reasons. Carefully, he linked his fingers into the other man's grip and smiled up at him. Smiling was something he was doing a lot more these days, confusion or not.

"Well, I never saw you as just a Furyan or I suppose I would have killed you on Crematoria." He gazed up into the silvery eyes above him and frowned slightly. It was odd. Before, he'd been able to see past the shine into the actual eyes beneath. Now, he was glancing off the surface, just like he used to do. Disturbing.

The former Necromonger nodded absently, still trying to figure out why Riddick seemed different. Or was Vaako himself different, was that how it worked? He sighed a little and his eyes seemed to want to close, though he forced them to stay open. "There's always things to figure out. We'll make it."

He really was still quite tired. The blood that the vampire creature had drained was slowly regenerating, but it would be awhile. Especially since he was also dealing with finding out he was apparently a Furyan on top of everything. He was exhausted, he realized as his eyes seemed to keep dropping closed.

Riddick knew there were questions, and he was not sure the answers were there. He watched Vaako and he wanted to talk, wanted to just be around this man and hope it would all clear up. But in the end a fear unlike anything he had ever felt and the fact that Vaako was tired won out.

"Sleep. We can talk later. You need your rest and I am not going anywhere." Riddick moved letting Vaako go but he didn't move far. Not even close. He sat on the edge of the bed waiting for Cylus to fall into sleep, knowing he needed it.
