2. Decide whether you've been hit or the person tagging you has been hit.
(Or have you both gotten lucky?)

[Any version up for grabs but good luck trying to get a positive reaction if you choose canon.]

I-It has to or... or you need a new st-stuudio. Must beeee har-hard to do work wh-when everything is goin' right round. [It's hard to take off her shoes without falling over in her attempts but the heels finally come off and she's smaller than ever compared to him.

She actually has to look up and crane her neck for a better sight of him through her hazy sight. Her eyes close for a brief moment to both enjoy the feeling of his lips on the top of her head and to stop the headache pounding in her temples from getting worse.] N-No faaair. You're al-always so much b-bigger than me.

[The click of his tongue is light as he starts them moving, grip on her tight and protective. He'll carry her if he has to, but it's nice to think she can walk even slightly for herself.]

It's the way of things, dear. Come on, now. Left foot, right foot.

[He'll get her to the couch, cradle her there with a faintly amused smile for a little longer.]

[There might be some grumbling when he talks to her like she's a child but it's light and doesn't last long when they get to the couch and he holds her close. The grumbling vanishes and is replaced with small sounds of pleased approval.

It's nice to go somewhere, time and time again, and be given the same results. It's nice to have some stability when it seems like you're doing everything in your power to not have that. She curls up in his arms, cuddling a bit and giving him a quiet look to make sure he doesn't complain about her affections.]

S-Sorry for craaa-craaashing in like this. [She isn't really sorry but it might be good to say that in case she does something stupid later.] A-Again. J-Just like you enough to k-keeep bothering you. Does-Doesn't that make yo-you feel speeeecial, Del?

[She fits nicely in his arms. It's easy, uncomplicated, to cradle her against his chest, smooth her hair and keep her warm in his arms.]

Don't apologize. [Not that she really is.] You always make me feel infinitely special, Andi. Will you rest?

[He can't help taking care of her. It's in his blood, somehow.]

[Andrea is glad it's in his blood. Given with how many times she keeps crashing at his place for somewhere to hide in and to look for someone to curl up with at night. It was a mircale he kept his paitence with her up for so long given his reputation for flipping on people who called his Math the 'A' word instead.

Most would get annoyed at the third drop. A lot would tell her to look for somewhere else at the seventh drop. Declán? Always kept letting her in, no matter the unholy house she decided to come.]

Laaater~ I-I wanna talk to yooou~ Over s-stuff. [Looks up and gives a bleary but bright smile as she pecks his cheek.] F-For a feeew minutes plea-please, Del?

Later, darling. [Affection comes easy with her. It must be the adoration. His fingers shift briefly to smooth her cheek, his smile faint but real for her.] After you've slept. You'll be horribly unhappy in the morning if you don't.

[Can he feel her pout against his chest as she burrows more to him like a sulky child? Because she's pouting and trying very hard to not smile.]

P-Promise me yooou won't... you won't leave me when I-I fall asleeeep? [She is getting awfully tired and Delcán was very soft and warm and safe.] Wo-Won't go awa-away?

[...well. There goes his master plan to slink away back to his work after she'd passed out. He had a feeling, no matter how exhausted or tipsy, she'd notice and hate him.

They didn't abandon each other, after all.]

...let me get my book, mm? [Compromise. He'd turn off all the lights but the reading lamp, cradle her in his lap and smooth her hair while flipping through the pages he'd been meaning to finish for the night.]

[Of course she'll notice. While she wasn't sober all the time but she still had enough brain cells in her to notice her best friend since childhood had gone off somewhere and anywhere that wasn't this couch.

The moment the warmth and safety left, Andrea can tell even in her sleep. She won't hate him when she's more coherent. She will throw one of her epic sulking fits and refuse to talk to him and Feilim for days though. She didn't want to do that but that was her knee jerk reaction when someone she cared for just left her even for a little while. Especially these days since...

She nods at long last in response, murmuring some words that weren't very important. Giving one last smile up at him, she closed her eyes to maske the studio stop spinning but moved enough to show she was awake and waiting for him to come back.]

[His lips are very light against her forehead as he moves, slips from under her, slides to quickly and quietly pull together his books and papers, hit all the lights that were unnecessary. It's not long before he's back, toeing his own shoes off before he sits and gently tugs her across him again.

She fits nicely, after all, just here against him, like there was a spot made for her when they were given their proportions. It's lovely. Affirming.

He'll enjoy listening to her breathe when he takes breaks from his work, feeling her heart beating against his.]

[When she's drunk and fast asleep, she's a bit like a cat. It's an open secret to those who get the duty honor of taking care of a smashed Andrea Cruz for a few hours.

It's the way she curls up next to her friend while she slumbers, presses her face against his stomach for a source of constant warmth and even rubs her head in approval of the soft firmness. She also makes almost-purring under her breath as she gets to a comfortable place to sleep on. The last thing is something denies doing but she does it. Maybe it's because she only does it for her favorites.

At the moment she was 'purring' very, very loudly.]
