GRACE ⋆☀︎.

ᅠ ᅠ ᅠ ────── ⋆⋅𖤓⋅⋆ ────── ᅠ ᅠ “Rocky, my hand is up. We can't just show up in a space ball unannounced and move into someone else's spaceship. Right? There has to be boundaries.” ᅠ ᅠ

@amazefixerid “They didn’t know. Only Stratt…Carl…and the medical team did. Stratt lied to everyone else.”

@eridsavinggrace “No. Not worth sacrifice.” He grumbles. “Captain Yao is good person. No want crew to be forced.” Rocky lets out a mournful trill. “Good captain for crew members.” “You crew not know you were forced, question?” The two taps are weak, like he already knows the answer.

— He’s waking up screaming. Nightmares. Well…it’s less of a nightmare and more of a memory.

@TH3_BUTCHER “A few hours, I think?”

@eridsavinggrace "...Thank you." [Simon nodded, looking away.] "...How long was I out?"

@TH3_BUTCHER “Oh…” He chuckles, fixing his glasses.

@BL00DYHEART “You deserve it, Si.”

@eridsavinggrace you're too kind to me sometimes, you know that?

so... i might've messed up my knee? like, it really hurts to walk--

@BL00DYHEART “Thank you, so much. I should be okay though, I’ll take care of you.”

@eridsavinggrace good, great. i'll, help patch you up when you get done looking at my knee. (he'd lean down to help if he could.)

@TH3_BUTCHER “I’ll help you get used to it. You deserve people caring about you. You deserve to know that feeling.”

@eridsavinggrace "I... I'm not used to having people care about me..." [He said quietly.]

@BL00DYHEART “I can. I think I just cut it up a bit” He checks, sitting as he grabs all the materials that got thrown around in his fall. True to what he thought, he’s bleeding.

@eridsavinggrace ...can you stand? we both don't need to have only one good knee.

@BL00DYHEART He nods, embarrassed. “One of either my or Rocky’s tools was on the floor. I didn’t notice, and tripped…” M

@eridsavinggrace ...did you trip? (he's essientially standing on his left foot to keep pressure off of his right.)

@TH3_BUTCHER “I don’t mind, not at all. You needed someone, and I’m glad I was able to be that person for you, Si.”

@eridsavinggrace "But I woke you up, I probably freaked you out-" [Simon stammered.]

@amazefixerid “I agree…Stratt just thought…it was a worthy sacrifice. But…the other members of my crew, they volunteered. I doubt they even knew I didn’t…Yao, he was…adamant that we all volunteer, that we’re not forced…” He taps his fingers like Rocky taps his claws.

@eridsavinggrace “Apology.” Rocky wilts at the flinch, instantly feeling remorseful. “Is bad bad bad. What they did to you. No family not mean deserve to be forced to die.” His claws click tentatively, “Correction: nobody deserve to be forced to die. That is evil thing to do.”

@BL00DYHEART He frowns, trying to get Simon to take care of himself and rest. The first aid kit has essentially exploded, everything inside it thrown across the room, with Ryland hurt. Not severely, but enough that he’s bleeding.

@eridsavinggrace (oh no. a grunt of pain escapes simon as he stands up, limping his way over.)

@BL00DYHEART Yes…? [He does not sound fine]

@eridsavinggrace thank y-- (long pause of silence.) ...grace?

@FOOLSERR0R Thank you Cass

@eridsavinggrace no problem! I'm free anytime!

Pacing. He’s not doing good mentally.

@FOOLSERR0R Thank you I have a lot on my mind, sorry

@eridsavinggrace i would love to!

@FOOLSERR0R If the other wouldn’t mind… Grace would like that.

@eridsavinggrace need to talk??

@BL00DYHEART I will do my best I promise [ Cue a crash from the opposite side of the ship ]

@eridsavinggrace just please don't trip or hurt yourself. please.

@BL00DYHEART If I get hurt, we have the medkit I don’t want you to be in any more pain

@eridsavinggrace i've been through worse. i don't need you getting hurt because you were trying to help me.

@BL00DYHEART But you’re hurt

@eridsavinggrace take your time.

@BL00DYHEART Very good I’ll be running to you with the medkit in a moment.

@eridsavinggrace already sitting angel, don't worry.

@TH3_BUTCHER “You don’t need to apologize, I promise.”

@eridsavinggrace [Simon would eventually calm down most of the way, mumbling soft apologies.] "...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..." [He trailed off.]
