Style: [ACTION]
Status: [CLOSED]
Warning: PG, just to be sure.

[Asato tosses in his bed, light beads of sweat covering his feverish body. He is not sick but his face still reflects pain and worries.

Nightmares. Again.

Despite the battle being over and the radiant Amaterasu being back, Asato's mind is filled by the darkness he felt near Yami, the memories of his last investigation in Kyoto coming back to the surface. He can taste the blood in his mouth, he can see the white shadow hovering around him.

He feels the scalpel cutting through his flesh and suddenly sits in his bed, eyes wide open and screaming endlessly.]


(OOC: The white shadow appearing in Asato's dream is Muraki (lamorteblanc).)

All? Who do you mean, Tsuzuki? I don't know what you mean, but it's not important.

[Hugs Tsuzuki tightly.]

[applepies]

[The younger Shinigami doesn't answer and just clings ont Tatsumi's shirt.]

Stay with me tonight...

[cheapshinigami]

[This is probably a terrible idea, but... Asato seems to really need him right now...]

Yes... Alright... [He just hopes he won't regret this later...]

[applepies]

[He does.]

Just hold me until I fall asleep...

[cheapshinigami]

[He nods and wraps his arms around Asato a bit awkwardly.]

[applepies]

[Asato feels strange too but it is quite a nice emotion. He closes his eyes and slowly relaxes in Tatsumi's strong arms.]

[cheapshinigami]

Shhh... It will be alright, Tsuzuki... [He kisses the younger man's forehead.]

I won't let anyone hurt you...

[applepies]

Mm... I trust you... [He always did and will always.]

[cheapshinigami]

[Hugs him tighter.]

Shhh... Try to get some sleep...

[applepies]

Yes... [He settles comfortably against Tatsumi, his head resting over the older man's chest.]

'Night...

[cheapshinigami]

[Smiles and cuddles with Tsuzuki.]

Good night, Tsuzuki.

[applepies]

[Oh, so nice and warm. It doesn't take long to Asato to fall asleep.]

[cheapshinigami]

[Watches over Asato for a while, before falling asleep.]
