[CON] you better watch your fucking neck.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus looked down at the flower, then gently sat it down on the ground. He reached over, slowly running his hand over Connor's back. "How about we go see the doctor now? You're shaking like you're in a freezer or something." He said quietly, standing slowly. He held out his hand again.

Connor tensed up at the touch over his back, then relaxed a bit, swallowing. He just nodded when the guy spoke, taking his hand with a cool one of his own, hauling himself unsteadily to his feet, stumbling and catching himself against the male. It finally hit him that he could barely stand, amd that honestly scared him. He didn't want to die unable to move...

[perseus james rudman]

"Woah! I got you." Perseus said quietly, wrapping his arms around the boy. He didn't want him to stumble or fall, maybe break something. "Why do you wanna be like this?" He mumbled, slowly running his hand over the boy's back. It was beyond him. "You could have anything you want. Why this?'

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor swallowed, leaning against him, trembling. "I-I-" But he didn't even have an idea. "I lost...a l-lot...guess I lost h-hope. I don't c-care nomore.. Nothing f-for me here. Everyone's dead, I-I can't see my sister." He swallowed. "There's n-no point,nobody wh-who would care." Not in his eyes.

[perseus james rudman]

"You keep saying that no one cares. I think you're starting to believe it, too. But nothings been further from the truth, you know. I'd care, if you let me in." He said quietly. He ran his hand over the boy's back, pressing a gentle kiss to his forehead. "Don't think you're alone. Cause you aren't. You just gotta look."

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor huffed. But the kiss to the forehead had him relaxing some, exhausted blue eyes closing. He slowed down in his walking again, looking towards the older male. "Why would y-you evencare?" He mumbled, clearing his throat before sneezing into an arm. "Y-you don't know me f-from Adam."

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus shrugged. "I dunno. Guess cause I just do." He said quietly. He gently pulled the boy through the doors, not even remembering why they were going this way. "Promise you're gonna get better? I don't wanna see you die or something."

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor shook his head. "I c-can't promise that." He raped. "N-not being so sick." He was uneasy now that they were in the hospital. He didn't know why they were here. It wasn't anything they could fix, he needed food. "Don't m-make me go in there.." He mumbled.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus couldn't promise he was going to keep him there no more than the boy could promise he would be alright. Mostly because Perseus couldn't remember why they were even here. "I won't. We'll just walk a little. Go bother Deac." He said, slipping his fingers between the boy's. He walked slowly down the hall, holding tightly to his hand. He drew his eyebrows together, stopping dead in his tracks. "That sounds like Bandit crying.." He said quietly.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor held onto his hand, realizing he had missed the feeling terribly. He hesitated at the mention of Deacon, but didn't worry himself too much, just walking with his head down, keeing close to the older male. When Perseus stopped, he did as well, lifting his head to look around. "I thought sh-she was missing. Somebody h-has her here..."
'Please don't be testing on her,' He thought brokenly. If so, and if he found out she had gone missing when Deacon came to talk to him, he would never forgive himself.

[perseus james rudman]

"Well, she is missing. We don't have her." He said, gently pulling the boy in the direction of the crying. If he'd heard it too, then it wasn't just Perseus' imagination. "Bandit?" He called, letting go of Connor's hand. He started pushing open doors. It wasn't until hed gotten halfway down the hall that he opened a door and the small girl came toddling towards him. He picked her up, hugging her close. "Poor baby.." He breathed, running his hands over the little white wings coming from her back.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor stumbled unsteadily after him, grabbing the wall for support as Perseus let go. He froze when he found the little girl and picked her up. Blue eyes darkened, growing pissed that they dare even touch her. "Where's Deac-con?" He mumbled, doubting he could make it back that far wothout passing out. He was ready to drop where he was.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus hugged the baby close, gently drying her tears. He looked over at Connor, hurrying after him. "Here. Just sit and hold her, okay? Don't let anyone touch her." He said quietly.

"Wan' daddy.." Bandit cried, reaching out for the thin male. "Where daddy? Wan' daddy, p'tty peas."

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor sank to the ground dizzily with a groam, gently pulling Bandit into his lap and hugging her close. "H-he'll get her, it's okay..." His dark wings curled in towards her, shielding her from view so nobody would take her while they were so defenseless. "You're s-safe baby..daddy's o-on his way."

[perseus james rudman]

"No, unka PJ!" She cried as Perseus ran off to the morgue for his brother. The two came running back moments later, Percy out of breath from running so far. Deacon picked up his baby, hugging her close to him. "He helped.. You don't have to be mean to him anymore.." Perseus told Deacon quietly, sitting down on the floor next to the boy. "We got your baby back for you."
