Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[makes a gesture with her hand like something whooshing from her other arm]

The thing.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, uh. S'cool though, I'm good.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

You better sit. Your leg...

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...c'mon, keep me company.

Don't wanna be on the ground by myself.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

'Kay.

[Attempts to settle to the ground]

...'S it look as bad as it feels?

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Takes her by the elbow and helps to ease her down.]

...looks pretty bad.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[Doesn't need help!!! But she takes it, and stays closer than strictly necessary]

'Least it's no great loss. Put a bag over my head if you need.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[W-winces.]

Dude. Don't even joke about that.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

Can't see anyways. Too--swollen.

[Her voice wobbles and she cuts off--none of that, now.]

...You should cover it, if it's bad.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Hesitates.]


[Hesitates longer.]

...there was a pair of sunglasses back near where I was fighting. You want me to get em?

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

...Sure. Don't want you to have to--yeah.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hey. I'm cool looking at it.

This is about what you want. Okay?

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

I don't-- Like, when it's a badass scar it's okay--

[Except no, no more scars, never again,]

--But--yeah, covering it's probably better.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...back in a sec.

[He's going to be getting up to go retrieve that.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[Waits, tense, ears pricked]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[She can probably hear how uneven the footsteps are, tbh.]

[They fade away for maybe a minute, then come back her way.]

Hey. Here.

[He takes one of her hands, gentle, and presses the sunglasses into it.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[Loses some of the harsh line of her shoulders when he returns.]

Thanks.

[She flips them open and easily places them by feel. Their weight is reassuring on her cheeks--her glasses got broken when she was shot. Then she returns her hand where it was, in case his hand's still there.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[His hand is, in fact, still there.]

No problem, dude.

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[She takes it then, tight]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He holds on like his life depends on it - squeezes.]

Gave em a show, right?

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

Sure did. ...Though I forgot the curbstomp.

[Just clutches his hand for a while before leaning in against where she's fairly sure his shoulder is]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...aw, man. You and me both.

[It is in fact right where she would expect it to be.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

Maybe next time.

[something in her belly wobbles over the thought but--not now. She rests against him heavy, clenches closed her free hand.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Gotta do a team-up next time, though. You and me versus whatever they can throw at us.

[He leans against her, too. He's probably even colder than usual due to the blood loss, sorry.]

Re: [AFTER THE FIGHT]

[unbr8kable]

[np, we're all of us in the bloodloss club atm, and tbqh she doesn't even go to him for physical warmth anymore, she just wears more layers]

Anytime, just say the word. Always ready to fight beside you.
