whoops wanted some hurt-comfort

[paladaddy]

Just say which of mine you want in the subject header o/ If you don't want to make shit up here's the list of prompts form a random h/c meme. Dice-thingy is here.



1. INJURY. You've been injured. Broken bones or bleeding out or maybe just a tiny little papercut. The choice is yours.
2. SICKNESS. You're sick and laid up in bed, at home or in a hospital. The severity is up to you.
3. FEAR/ANXIETY. Something is happening and you're scared beyond belief.
4. LOSS OF SENSES. Sight, touch, taste, hearing, smell, etc. You've lost some important sense or ability and now you're left to deal with it.
5. DESPAIR. Nothing is good or right anymore and you can't shake the depression. Maybe that friend of yours can help though...
6. BREAKUP. You've been dumped. You need someone to comfort you, possibly by the one who dumped you.
7. MAKE UP. Fight or break up, it's time to makeup.
8. RESCUED. You've just been held captive and/or tortured for however long and finally, someone has come to the rescue.
9. BAD ROMANCE. Fight, cheated on, abused, whatever the case is, someone else can clearly see you need comfort from someone who isn't your terrible lover tonight.
10. LOSS. You've experience a loss of some kind and need help getting through it.
11. INSANITY. You're seeing things that aren't really there, hearing voices, or you're just convinced you're at your wit's end finally and you're going to crack. Maybe someone can give you a helping hand.
12. TIRED. You've had a heard life recently and you're just worn too thin to really care anymore. There's no fight left in you anymore. Can someone help change your mind?
13. ADDICTION. Drugs, alcohol, sex, gambling, or any other type of addiction has got you in its grasp. First time or relapse. Will someone be able to save you?
14. INSOMNIA. You can't sleep anymore, no matter how hard you try. Maybe someone can give you company.
15. NIGHTMARES. Or, on the other end of the spectrum, you can't sleep without gruesome, horrible nightmares. Either someone is stuck in your dream with you, witnessing it or they're just waking you up, soothing you out of it.
16. BLACKMAIL. You've been caught doing something you shouldn't and you were blackmailed because of it
17. SEPARATION. You're going to be separated for awhile or were separated for a long time. Either make up for lost time or try to spend every last moment together.
18. VIOLATED. You've been violated in some way. Can include sexual overtones or not. Can someone help you through it?
19. STRANDED. You've been stranded somewhere remote, with no help of anyone finding you for awhile. Can you survive this together?
20. SINS. You're feeling the weight of your sins and guilt clearer than ever. Can someone give you absolution or lessen the ache any?
21. SECRET. It's difficult having to keep that secret of yours, be it a relationship or something you just don't want to share with anybody else. Maybe it's okay to talk about it now though...
22. ADDITION. Babies should be joyous things unless you're in a situation where you know you won't be able to care for them. Either you've adopted or found out you're pregnant.

[See, he hasn't quite figured out what Rin knows. He knows it in his heart and soul, but his mind still needs to catch up. While he can easily admit to admiring Rin and enjoying her company, he still can't comprehend the idea of actually liking anyone in that way.

So when Rin talks about boys being oblivious, he's sure Rin has figured out something he doesn't know, but since she isn't sharing what that is he's just getting mad.]

Did you miss the part where I'm not like most boys? I've got too much to do to worry about girls and feelings. That's why I'm asking you what all this means.

[Come on Rin he at least trusts you enough to give him an honest answer.]

[hellpyre]

[To her it's not so much knowing as it is taking a damn wild guess. A guess that she quietly, secretly hopes might actually be right, because now that the idea is in her head she's not only okay with it but kind of excited at the prospect of it at all. Hell, just the idea that anyone could look at her, see past her faults, her heritage and still come out the other side romantically interested makes her aching heart much less pained.

Her laughter quiets, replaced instead by a genuinely warm smile - probably one of the first she's worn in weeks. Even if she's wrong, it's still nice to have this moment.]

No... you're not. But I think that's okay. Not everyone is the same, y'know? Even so, I can only guess. I could be wrong.

[kyotoprincess]

[Bon has a feeling he knows what Rin's guess will be, which is a problem since he's still in denial about it. Suddenly he's thinking that maybe he doesn't want to hear Rin's guess, since there would be no turning back then.

Rin is his friend. She's his good friend, and pretty much the only person here he trusts. As much as he would like for it to be more than that, he's afraid of messing up. If there's anything he's good at, it's messing up at social things.]

A guess probably wouldn't help here, especially if it could be wrong.

[hellpyre]

You did want my help, but...

[She also doesn't want to say it and think that it has to be what she's thinking. Power of suggestion and all that.]

[kyotoprincess]

Tell me about your experiences then. Was there a time where the same thing happened to you?

[Whoops he accidentally a personal question.]

[hellpyre]

To me... ?

[Yeah that was unexpected.]

Well. Uhm. ... yeah, actually. Yeah, my first year in middle school.

[kyotoprincess]

And what did you do about it?

[HE IS CURIOUS. Depending on how well it went with Rin, he might try what she says.]

[hellpyre]

[Unfortunately, it didn't go well. But she sees how attentive he is, and for a moment she considers lying. Lying never goes well for her though, so...]

I uh... I tried to ask him to one of the festivals...

[She shifts uncomfortably, looking at her hands.]

He said yes and then... stood me up. He never showed. And the next day at school when I tried to confront him about it, he pretended like I'd never even talked to him, and him and his friends just laughed at the idea of me waiting around for some one who was never gonna show.

[kyotoprincess]

[Over the duration of that story, Bon goes from almost-smiling, to frowning, to sad, to pissed off. Seriously, how could some brat be that cruel?]

It sounds like someone needs their face punched in.

[He seriously would do it, if that guy managed to survive the end of the world.]

[hellpyre]

[That gets Rin to grin, holding up a fist as she does so.]

Beat ya to it.

[kyotoprincess]

[And that gets Bon to laugh finally.]

He should've known better than to mess with you.

[hellpyre]

[Good. Bon laughing is nice.]

Everyone knew not to mess with me after that. ... 'course I got suspended. And had to apologize to his family for breakin' his nose.

[kyotoprincess]

Did you tell them "Sorry your son is a prick"?

[That's seriously what Bon would have done.

Though he would have found a way to avoid the suspension. He cares about school too much for that.]

[hellpyre]

[Rin didn't care much back then and she honestly cared even less after that, so she took the whole thing in stride.]

Nah. Dad was standin' there and I was gettin' tired of the headslap ever time I opened my mouth that day.

[She would have, though.]

[kyotoprincess]

That sounds like something my mom would do.

[Yeah his family is basically Rin's family, but with the genders reversed.]

Then again, I think she would be even more upset if I hit a girl than if a girl hit a guy.

[hellpyre]

[Pretty much.]

Mn... probably. But I don't think you'd hit a girl for standin' you up and actin' like a bitch, no matter how much she'd deserve it. You're a lot better at controllin' yourself than I am.

[kyotoprincess]

Most of the time.

[Not when Rin is involved, basically. That's why this complicates things.]

How did the dance-thing go in your world, then? I'm guessing you didn't have as much trouble with finding a date.

[At the very least, Girl!Rin and Renzou would have buddied up to get in. He could see them doing that.]

[hellpyre]

[They would.

If she actually knew about it.]

... dance... thing... ?

[kyotoprincess]

You know, for the fall festival.

[Come on Rin their worlds have been pretty much the same so far.]

[hellpyre]

[Oh.

Well.

This is awkward.]

They... hadn't announced anythin' for it yet.

[kyotoprincess]

...

[Wait that means that Rin doesn't know about that thing with the girl and making her cry.

Bon is ok with this.]

Well, there was going to be a festival after we got back to school for the fall semester.

[hellpyre]

[NOPE.]

Oh... wow. I'm... that's... kinda crappy that I don't get to go now...

[Awkward shifting. Again.]

Did... you find a date?

[kyotoprincess]

[SCOWL SCOWL]

No. No I did not.

[Technically it's true, he didn't find his date, his date found him.]

[hellpyre]

Wh-what's with the look, it was just a question?!

[Bon, she likes you, but god can you be scary sometimes.]

[kyotoprincess]

[Right, the scary face thing. He needs to work on that.

He sighs and rubs at his face before speaking again.]

It was all just really stupid and even remembering it makes me mad. School festivals are pointless, and I wouldn't have even agreed to go if she hadn't started crying when I said no the first time.
