He shrugged faintly. "I don't know."
He shrugged faintly. "I don't know."
"Well… are you calmer?" Derlik asked instead.
"Yeah." he said softly.
"That's good, then." Derlik offered a weak smile. "Are you… okay, with this?" With the god holding Nik close.
Nik shrugged a little. "I…yeah…" he said quietly.
"Alright. Let me know if that changes and I'll let go, okay?" Derlik kept his arms around Nik for now, offering that comfort still.
"Okay." he replied, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.
Derlik leaned his head back on the boulder, keeping an eye on Nik.
He'd take this out on Arthur later.
He let out a slightly shaky breath, swallowing faintly.
Derlik was worried, for a moment, that holding Nik close would just make him upset again. Still, he didn't let go, his hand still resting on Nik's head.
Nik didn't want to move, needing this comfort from someone.
Derlik didn't move either, holding Nik to his chest. He was perfectly fine giving the comfort, his fingers beginning to gently play with Nik's hair. This calmed people down, right?
Nik let out another quiet breath, closing his eyes and leaning faintly into Derlik's hand.
(Might have to go soon, sorry)
(It's alright, I left something for you in the claimed chat >:) )
Derlik took this as a good sign, continuing the motion. He held Nik to himself, letting out a small sigh.
(D: I saw)
Nik kept his eyes closed, still leaning into Derlik's hand.
Derlik settled down slowly for the night, feeling himself slowly slipping in and out of conciousness.
Nik eventually fell asleep again, cuddled close to Derlik.
Derlik fell asleep as well, arms securely around Nik. In the morning, if Torin woke up first, there was no way he was getting out of Derlik's arms on his own.
(ashdgdg Nik, not Torin lol)
Nik stayed asleep, pressed close to Derlik.
(AHDJKDH)
Derlik let out a breath as he slept, his face pressing into Nik's hair.
(lmao)
Nik shifted faintly, letting out a quiet sound of contentment.
Derlik slowly woke up at the morning progressed, looking down at Nik. He looked… Comfortable, where he was, so Derlik didn't move from his spot.
Nik's curls were lightly covering his face, drifting around his head.
Derlik reached up, gently brushing Nik's hair away. Then, taking advantage of the man still being asleep, the god reached into his pocket, dragging Arthur out. He held the man behind Nik's back, glaring down at the man.
Nik let out a sleepy hum at the touch. Arthur flinched, whining fearfully.
Derlik glanced to Nik with her heard the him, expression softening before he turned back to Arthur.
"Now, did you come up with any good ideas while you had you're… Alone time?" The god cooed, keeping his voice soft to not wake Nik. He took Arthur's head between two fingers, checking his stitches.
Arthur whimpered again, closing his eyes.
"Nothing? Too bad~" Derlik used a finger to force Arthur's mouth and against the stitches, pushing his head back with a sickening crunch.
Arthur cried out in pain, squirming desperately in a futile attempt to get away.
Derlik's smile only grew, bending Arthur even more. He watched, was bones broke and blood started spilling out.
