[The darkness is new, but this tightness around his arms, his body... it's not entirely unfamiliar. Immediately Nero's pulse quickens, his breathing skips - nervous, but excited. He pulls against the bindings just to test them, and to some secret satisfaction, they hold. Ah.

He can't see the body curled up next to him, but... it'd make sense if it were him, right? So Nero calls out, with familiarity,]

Jason...?

[selfpreservationist]

[despite how relaxed he is, raven is not asleep--and he lifts his head in surprise at hearing that name]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He waits for an answer, but when he doesn't get one immediately - or like, hands stroking his hair or something - Nero tilts his head and...

whoever's curled up with him has more hair than Jason does... His brows furrow, suspicious.]

You're not him?....

[selfpreservationist]

[places a finger over nero's lips]

It's me, Nero.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He freezes. Surprise turns to embarrassment, turns to mortal embarrassment, the kind you can die from probably, the blood is supposed to stay in the face, turns to 'oh no I fucked up'.

Honestly he's kind of glad for the blindfold because it saves him from having to look Raven in the eye.]

A-ah...hhh..h..........

[selfpreservationist]

[removes his hand and settles in where he was before, curled up along nero's side]

Don't be afraid.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Maybe Raven didn't notice his fuck-up. Please pleeeease make it so he didn't notice. Flustered, but still trying to-- I dunno, preserve his pride somehow, Nero defensively mutters,]

I'm... not scared.

[selfpreservationist]

Why Jason?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[oh no]




No... reason........

[selfpreservationist]

[the silk bindings start to tighten]

Tell me.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[THAT'S alarming?? Now he tries to worm out of the blindfold,]

What?! Hey--!

[selfpreservationist]

[the blindfold comes off, but raven is looking scared now]

Don't--! Don't go, Nero!

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He stops, again - staring at Raven with confusion and worry. At least he stopped fighting the binding? Even his guard starts to drop, softened by a swell of concern.]

Wh-- I...?

[ummm.]

I'm not... gonna leave...

[selfpreservationist]

[presses closer to him, tucking his face into nero's shoulder]

Stay here with me. You're safe. You can just rest.

[gigadevilbreaker]

Um.

[He tries to relax, but




when does he bring up the fact that he's tied up. Is this an awkward time to mention it?]

[selfpreservationist]

... why did you think I was Jason? Does he do this to you?

[gigadevilbreaker]

...

[No one can tell I'm a bad liar if I just DON'T SAY ANYTHING]

[selfpreservationist]

... I'm not him. I won't hurt you. I'll never...

[gigadevilbreaker]

He doesn't...

[Mmn. Hm. No, that was not really true. Hm! HM.

There's a lump in Nero's throat that he tries to swallow.]

I know what he's like. He hurts himself.

[selfpreservationist]

I don't want... anyone hurting you.

[gigadevilbreaker]

It's not like that!

[selfpreservationist]

Then what's it like?

[gigadevilbreaker]

He...

[Nero's gaze falls, and he rolls his face into the sheets to try and hide the deep flush in his face]

He wants to protect me, too. Not nice, but kind. And he's thoughtful - even though he can't let himself be seen loving anyone... even though he can't let himself feel loved.

[selfpreservationist]

Do you love him?

[gigadevilbreaker]

[He's quiet for a while]

As much as he'll let me.
