[CON] you better watch your fucking neck.

[perseus james rudman]

Deacon stood up, taking Bandit into his arms as he announced that he was taking her to dinner. Perseus watched them leave, then took a seat on the side of the bed. "You wanna go eat? I can bring you something back." He offered.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor hesitated considering how he had been starving himself. But he didn't want to outright say no. "S-sure..." He murmured softly. He didn't want to feel so helpless though, either. He swung his legs off the bed, gritting his teeth as he struggled to try and even stand. He grew frustrated when he was finally up and stumbling before sitting again. "F-fuck."

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus watched him struggle, biting his lip. "I- just sit there, okay? I'll bring it back." He offered. He felt guilty in a way, knowing the boy was so broken. He couldn't fix him, could only be a friend until the boy died. He knew he wouldn't ever be anything more. His brother would make sure of that. He walked out of the room and down to the cafeteria, getting both their food and carrying it back.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor watched him go, wondering if he started eating again what would happen, if his body could readapt. He was nodoctor, he didn't know how to fix what he had broken. Exhausted blue eyes looked up at the older male again as he returned, forcing a smile.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus stuck his pierced tongue out at the boy. "Its nasty food. I wouldn't smile." He said, sitting it down next to him. He took a seat on the floor, opening the lid to his container. He poked at what he assumed was half-assed chinese food. "No wonder you're so skinny. I wouldn't eat this either."

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor scoffed. "Y-yeah.." He mumbled halfheartedly, breathing a thanks as he took the food. He picked up his plastic fork and poked at it halfheartedly, swallowing bwfore taking a bite. The only thing he had eaten was pudding the other day from Quinn, and he'd thrown that uo. He hadn't seen the guy, and didn't care to go searching if he was being avoided.He was far more content with the unoressured company of Perce.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus ate his food slowly, a million things running through his mind. Most of the day was gone from his memory by now, all of it probably by the morning. Give or take a couple important things. And his brother's sexuality wasn't one of them. "Don't think I caught your name." He said quietly, looking up at the boy.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor raised his head from scrutinizing his food. "Oh..C-Connor.." He mumbled, had forgotten introductions. The only reason he knew Perseus' name was because of Bandit and Deacon. He coughed, taking another cautious breath, dreading the chances of being sick later on.

[perseus james rudman]

"I'm Perseus. But Deac and Bandit call me PJ. My middle name is James." He wasn't even sure it was James, to be honest. It could have been Joseph or John or Jake. If it even started with a J. But he was too embarrassed to ask. Who forgot their name? "Its nice meeting you."

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor smiled the faintest bit. "Y-you too.." He murmured softly, reaching to rub at his nose. He tucked hair behind an ear, peering back down at his food again quietly and poking it with his fork. He knew he needed to start eating. It was getting too difficult to even move.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus nodded slowly, his eyes wandering towards the chopsticks the nurse had given him. He hadn't used them in forever. Deacon didn't eat anything Asian. He pulled them from the wrapper and tore them apart, carefully picking up a piece of chicken and putting it in his mouth. "Now I see why D doesn't eat this.." He said around his food.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor nodded, staring at his food again before taking a bite. He was dreading the possibility of it coming back up later, and hoped he at least got something out of the few bites he had taken so far.

[perseus james rudman]

Perseus wasn't the 'lead by example' type, which was probably why his parents had told him to never have kids. He got up and tossed his food away, then walked over to the dresser to fish out the forbidden food his brother told him never to eat- candies. He shook the box of Gobstoppers, sitting at the end of the bed to eat them slowly. "Want one?" He asked, holding the box out to the boy with a shaking hand.

[connor crayze sykes]

Connor pushed at his food a last time before deciding he was completely uninterested. He looked uo as Perseus got up to get the box of candies, catching the shake of his hand as it was offered. He didn't question it, though, considering his own constant shaking. Tossing his food away as well, he took the box and dumped a few into his hand, then gave it back, popping one into his mouth.

[perseus james rudman]

"These things are like.. pure sugar, huh? Explains why Deacon doesn't let me eat them.." He turned the box over, sucking noisily on the one he had in his mouth. He drew his eyebrows together, putting the box in his lap. He drew his knees up, looking over at the boy for a second. He looked away, scanning his room. He forgot so much, he sometimes didn't even know if he was in his own room.
