Higurashi aftermath

[sharpasafawkes]

[IN OUR LAST EPISODE Shaun and Cesare had a little trip down to the labs, if by "trip" we mean "a magical adventure full of torture-filled antics". Needless to say there's one historian laid up in a hospital bed, more or less asleep and bandaged like you wouldn't believe.]

*carefully lifts him up and lowers him onto the pillow, climbing back onto the bed after him*

[sharpasafawkes]

[Almost, almost starts to relax]

[maleborgia]

*kneeling next to him!

...

soft pettings*

[sharpasafawkes]

[Tenses up for a moment! But then he starts to lean into it]

[maleborgia]

*being careful to keep it away from his back and neck*

What rule did you break? You were asleep.

[sharpasafawkes]

I didn't, it might be that I tempted fate.

[maleborgia]

What do you mean?

[sharpasafawkes]

I did say i'd get you a bird.

[maleborgia]

Oh, that is true! Does that mean you'll hunt for me?

[sharpasafawkes]

[So much sarcasm] Sure, when I can fly

[maleborgia]

You'll stay like this a while, though, won't you?

[sharpasafawkes]

I don't really have much choice in the matter, now do I?

[slowly becoming more boneless with the petting though.]

[maleborgia]

*might just be trying to peer closer at that writing*

Good. I want you to be a hawk for a bit. I like you like this.

[sharpasafawkes]

["Man is a hawk to man" in latin? what does that even mean?]

...See you started early.

[maleborgia]

*no idea :|a*

Started what early?

[sharpasafawkes]

Using other people, if I've got to be blunt.

[maleborgia]

*...confused*

I'm not using you.

[sharpasafawkes]

You want me around so you can hunt though, yeah?

[maleborgia]

Oh. Well, it would be fun. Don't you think so? Besides, you promised me you would play a game with me after you woke up.

[sharpasafawkes]

But it's still using people, you need to think about how they feel.

[still, pretty much relaxed and letting the tiny do what he wants though]

-but I'm not going to go back on a promise, what sort of game do you want to play?

[maleborgia]

Rabbit hunting!

[sharpasafawkes]

...

Do you really want to see me try and fly?

[maleborgia]

Not now. After you're better.

[sharpasafawkes]

[I believe the best term for what he's doing is called "flopping".]

I meant what game did you want to play right now.

[maleborgia]

Oh.

What do you have? Your room is very empty.
