"I've got you, dude."

And he does, one arm under Xaldin's shoulders, and gravity turned, so Xaldin doesn't need to be anywhere near the ground.

Layers of leather and cloth dampen the pain, but not discomfort.

When he can think again Xaldin buries his face in Xigbar's coat because that way he's able to eventually get his teeth around a flap of hood and bite down on it instead of his tongue.

When he finally stops he leaves his head there and says, "I wonder how many worlds I could stand, all in a row." in a distant and dreamy kind of voice. Not a fading voice. A voice that is so busy thinking that it doesn't have much left for speech.

"Oh fuck yes." Xaldin says without hesitation.

And the nature of boys to be dumbasses.
