[The feed, for a long moment, seems to be nothing but the view of a cracked ceiling and the sound of soft snores - the sound of someone very deep in slumber.]

[It does not last long, however, before there is a loud bang, and the PCD is thrown from it's spot - looks like it was on a bedside table, and is now on a bed. Tyki comes into view, only ( Read more... )

[She heard that from her room. Not checking the PCD, not doing anything but leaping off the bed and running down the hall, in her nightgown and bare feet, to fling Tyki's door open.]

[That scream. It sounded. She doesn't know how it sounded. But she stops in the doorway--not hesitating so much as taking in the situation warily. No enemies. Tyki's not visibly hurt. So. She creeps in, for once making hardly a sound as she moves, approaching the bed cautiously, like a cat stalking.]

Tyki?

[She will find one (1) Tyki leaning over the edge of his bed and dry-heaving, mostly the backlash from trying so hard to catch his breath. Please to not be too alarmed - there's blood, but most of it looks like it's from his nose.]

[He hears his name though, and he looks up - yes, those are tearstains, although Tyki doesn't seem to have noticed them. Perhaps it isn't really even Tyki at all that's crying - and he heaves one more time before coughing.]

...... what?

[She's climbing onto the bed immediately, crawling across the covers to lift the hem of her nightgown and wipe the blood away. No wound. But something's really wrong. The look in his eyes, the feel in the air. She has no idea what happened, but it scares her.]

[Her touch is light and gentle on his face, her fingers trying to chase his tears, wipe them away, her expression is worried but carefully so, trying not to show how much that scream scared her, because he's here and he's okay and somehow this reminds her of when he was sixteen. She needs to be the big sister now.]

Was it a dream?

[At first, he starts to push her hands away - it's less because he wants to, and morso out of instinct - and when it catches up to him he reaches for her and pulls her close.]

... you're real.

[Right?]

[Offline] dreams_are_mine March 10 2011, 08:23:26 UTC

[It doesn't bother her, this time, that he moves to push her away. Whatever happened hurt him. She hugs him, arms tight around him. Warm. Real. Right here. Hear her heartbeat?]

Mmhm.

[Deep breaths. Deep breaths. Holy fuck he's never been more relieved to have her there in his entire life.]

[His eyes drift to the ceiling, and he stops.]

... he's here?

[Offline] dreams_are_mine March 10 2011, 08:31:32 UTC

[She's not letting go, keeping a tight hold on him, kneeling by him, draped close so he has as much contact as she can offer. For a moment the question throws her, who...? But of course, who else would be here?]

I don't know. [Probably. But what does that have to do with anything? A pit begins to form in her stomach. Something really not right.]

Why? ...Tyki, what happened?

[Offline] sleightofhearts March 10 2011, 08:42:53 UTC

[He's still riding out the aftershocks of the nightmare, and so his hands are shaking as he reaches up and cups her cheeks between his hands. For a moment, he's just staring at her - looking, but not really seeing. Can he be sure this isn't another dream?]

[No, the smell of blood is too real. Tyki shakes his head.] It was a dream...

[Denying it, however, doesn't stop him from resting his forehead against hers. She's free to look, if she wants.]

[Offline] dreams_are_mine March 10 2011, 08:50:43 UTC

[She hesitates a moment, because anything that can shake up Tyki this badly must be terrible. She has to know of course, she's going to look, but she doesn't want to drag it all in front of his eyes again, not when he looks like that.]

[She has to though, to see.]

[So she reaches up and runs small fingers through his hair, peeking in. It doesn't take all that long, to experience and see it. To watch it start to finish. She doesn't notice her fingers tightening in Tyki's hair with pure rage until she's back to herself and she carefully soothes the hair she pulled.]

[She can't say anything because she's livid, small frame tense as a live wire, angry and practically vibrating with the emotion.]

[How dare he?]

[Offline] sleightofhearts March 10 2011, 09:08:22 UTC

[He's much, much calmer when she comes back, found most of his footing again. Even pressed against her, he tries to burrow closer.]

I'm sorry, Love.

[For.... being a general ass?

[Offline] dreams_are_mine March 10 2011, 09:10:30 UTC

[Her hold tightens on him a little, she tries to gentle it. Why is Tyki apologizing? She doesn't understand, really, she's too preoccupied with being ten kinds of furious.]

Don't be silly, Tyki.

[She's not letting go though, until he pulls away. Here as long as he needs her.]
