[ it lines up pretty well with what she'd been slowly cultivating her reaction into; the healing that her change of heart began and strengthened. yet, there's nothing like coming across old traumas and realizing no matter how much you've grown since then, the oddest thing can and will trigger you into a globally epic meltdown.
what a disaster.
the humming however does wake her up enough to snort quietly to aim a kick at his leg (huh did she ever get her other boot back from tsuyu..........) but there's no heat in it whatsoever ]
[he rubs at his leg, but his emotions seem relieved and he smiles a bit before crashing back down into a mix of regret and embarrassment]
I dunno what all that was about, but...I'm sorry if I hurt you. Don't really remember, but...obviously I wouldn't...want to...[he trails off awkwardly]
Guess that's why Riku was bein' all protective when I came over.
[the regret deepens—that's worse than he did to some others] Oh...that's pretty bad, yeah. Guess I wouldn't blame 'em, or you, wantin' to kick my ass for that.
You want me to go? Bring you back or bring someone else here?
Or you could break three of my ribs then we'd be even! It'd be pretty easy right now, I think. [he pokes at his left side and winces, but his emotions seem hopeful, that maybe it'll be as easy as letting people hurt him back, that it can fix things like it usually does]
[ everyone else is either busy or also dead so denji is now stuck now. which she makes a point by putting her head on his shoulder to keep him put. pay no attention to the weak amount of embarrassment overcoming the void of emotion ]
[relief and a sort of guilty happiness rise up in denji—weird, messed up circumstances aside, it still feels nice to sit here with a cute girl's head on his shoulder, and he takes a deep breath and settles in, squeezing her shoulders gently]
Well, the revenge rib-breaking thing is an open offer. Seems only fair, ya know?
Okay, then it's all decided! I'll bring you snacks so you can relax and eat 'em while you watch somethin' and get better. [where did they get those anime from before...]
Just gotta ask someone to let me in when I'm makin' the delivery...

I'm a little surprised the rest of Fall didn't show up to help.
[ that's because everyone was also on the floor from the echo chamber, futaba ]

Your punishment is to sit and cater to me.

Date: 2021-07-18 03:02 am (UTC)Oh! But I could, like, bring food to you so you don't gotta leave!
Only thing better than eatin' is eatin' in bed, that's what I always say.

But I agree, snacks in bed while watching anime is my favorite.
