Ace stared at the sleeping dragon on his chest and touched his face. Stubble. How long had it been since he last shaved? Probably forever.
(Anyone still here?)
Blake groaned slightly, starting to come to. Frankie wasn't there, she had probably gone off to get food or go to the bathroom, but Blake groggily called out names of people he knew, hoping someone would respond and give him attention. "Frankie? Ace? Zander?" Blake listed, his voice cracking loudly. Too loopy to be ashamed, he raised his voice and let out a loud whine.

Blake noticed one of the machines next to him was tall, but a little below his height when he stood up. He got out of bed slowly, leaving the wires and tubes in his arm and grabbing onto the tall machine. It read "Plasma" but Blake had no idea what that meant. Instead he was humming happily under his breath, shutting his eyes and reliving the dance he had with Frankie. He swirled around the room clumsily, spinning the machine almost drunkenly around with him, poorly humming the song from the ballroom under his breath.
Ace patted the snoring Zodiac and sat up, holding her in his arms. She trilled and yawned, "You're honestly so cute." Ace smiled and scratched under her chin, before touching her wing, "Do you think they have magical dragon wing menders?"
"I'd say so, man!" Blake said cheerfully, sluggishly making his way into Ace's room and dragging the plasma pole alongside him. He'd vaguely heard a few alarms go off from his room, but thought nothing of it and went to go visit his brother.
"Hello Blake." Ace waved, "Are you okay man?"
"I'm allllllll good, Acey." Blake drawled and then proceeded to giggle at the nickname he'd given Ace. "I got all patched up."
"That's nice." Ace scratched at his stubble, "Acey?"
"Mhm!" Blake grinned triumphantly and stumbled forward a few steps. "I feel like I'm wasted, man. But I didn't have anything to drink! Tryn' not to worry Frankie too much." He explained, somehow finding his way to the seat at Ace's bedside. He began clawing at the gauze wrapped around his injured wings.
Ace held onto Zodiac's tiny sleeping body, "Yeah, you really shouldn't drink." he looked at Blake, "I'm feeling better, does this mean I can get out of the hospital now?"
"Dunno, man." Blake shrugged and sent Ace a lopesided, lazy smile. He succeeded in ripping off some of the gauze, but only revealed a large spot of his wing where feathers were missing a only a patch of stitches could be seen on his bloodstained skin. Blake frowned at it slightly, his lip pulling out into a pout.
"Y-you should really rest." Ace set Zodiac next to him, "You shouldn't be out of bed, Blake." he touched Blake's wing. "Go rest." Ace picked up Zodiac again and placed her on Blake's lap.
Blake froze as the tiny Zodiac was set into his lap. He shrunk back a little, his body going stiff. "Not gonna hurt me?" He questioned, staring down at Zodiac fearfully.
"She's the size of a kitten." Ace pet Zodiac's wittle head, "She's cute! Pet her."
Blake obeyed, tentatively laying his hand on Zodiac's scales. Once he decided she was safe he began to lighly pet her.
Zodiac trilled and let out a little puff of air, turning over and exposing her belly. Ace cringed, "Dude, do not pet the belly. Belly equals danger zone."
He withdrew his hand quickly, afraid of getting burned again. He settling for examining the weird sling his arm was placed in and the large bandage wrapping around his shoulder.
"You should really rest." Ace dropped his voice to a whisper, "I'm afraid you won't exactly be able to lie down in the grass and make out with Frankie if you're not feeling well." he touched his chin, "Do you have a…whatchamacallit? Shave thingy?"
Blake was blushing profusely. "Frankie?" He repeated the name dumbly, wobbling on his feet as he stood back up. He let Zodiac crawl onto the chair as he started towards the door without another word, his eyes misted over slightly.
Ace sighed, "Okay then! I'll just stay here, basically alone, while you go find someone you've only known for a few hours." Zodiac wobbled back to Ace's bedside and curled up on his bare chest, puffing and snoring. Ace smiled, but when he lied back down, he started coughing blood again. "It was probably nothing. I always cough." Ace said to no one in particular, "I'm fine. No more surgery."
