(ALIK) but never you.

"Then go get us some fucking blankets, penis breath!" Zakk'ri said, throwing the roll of gauze at him. He laid back, pulling Alik down beside him. He slowly ran his hand over his back, his eyes looking over the sky. There wasn't much to see. Not much he cared for anyways. He'd never been a nature person. "This doesn't make you any less my brother. You're still the baby I'd refuse to let mum care for, and the little boy I brought to class his first day of school, and the young man who's locked in this place with me. This doesn't change a single thing."

Kira rolled his eyes, but got up and scampered back down the wall when he was sure nobody would see.
Alik curled at Zakk'ri's side, resting his head on his chest. He found himself fighting back a new rush of tears as Zakk spoke, and he hid his face. "Okay.." He choked, sniffing. Body trembling, he moved closer still, trying not to let the new knowledge bother him. It didn't change things..right? He drew in careful breaths, knowing too many questions, too much stress, would only invite those voices back.

Zakk held the boy close to him, draping his arm over his eyes to block out the light. He only liked having pitch darkness. The light always gave him a headache. He could see Kira in his head, creeping around for blankets. He hated laying eyes on anyone. It just meant that he was going to be able to track them until he finally focused on something else. And Alik being here by his side just meant he could focus more on his other brother.

[alik marai romonov]

Alik calmed down some after a moment, fingers running along Zakk's stomach slowly, just glad he wasn't locked up right now. He heard Kira curse, and then his brother hauled himself onto the roof again, piled with blankets. Brother.. Alik bit his lip. "Here, found some painkillers. Or stole them." Kira shrugged, offering them out to Zakk, and handing a water over as well. "Thankyou.." Alik whispered.

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

Zakk looked over at him, taking the pain killers. He popped some in his mouth, chewing them slowly. They'd never really bothered him. The more he had, the number he got. But then there wouldn't be anyone to care for his brother, so he never really got too into drugs. All he could think about was his little brother being left alone while he went and did who knows what. "Open up." He said, holding a pill to his mouth.

[alik marai romonov]

Alik opened his mouth and took the pill, swallowing it with a sip of water. Then he leaned over for the gauze and began to wrap Zakk'ri's wrists carefully, offering him a smile. "There.." He murmured, clearing his throat. He huffed as a blanket was thrown over the two of them, scowling. "Kira.." He complained.

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

Zakk'ri smirked as the blanket was thrown, making moaning noises. "Oh, Alik! Right there!" He moaned before he started to chuckle, pawing at the blanket to get it off. His hair stuck to his head like static cling, and he looked over at Kira. "Wanna join?" He asked, raising an eyebrow in question. He thrusted his hips a couple times before he laughed again.

[alik marai romonov]

Alik rolled his eyes. "Gross," He groaned, grinning and reaching to ruffle Zakk's hair. "No, no incest," Kira whined, then blinked. "Sorry."
Alik just shrugged, staring into his lap before poking Zakk's stomach. Kira hauled the rest of the blanket over, tossing them all down and sprawling again.

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

"It's not illegal. Just immoral." Zakk'ri pointed out. He wrinkled his nose as Alik poked his stomach. "You're hurting the baby, Alik. Don't be mean." He smiled, leaning up to kiss his cheek. He flopped down on the blankets, patting the spot next to him. "You know, I read in the bible -don't laugh- that these two chicks slept with their drunk dad to get pregnant. Now THAT'S what's weird." He nodded, playing with the gauze on his wrists.

[alik marai romonov]

Alik laughed. "How'd you get pragnant, Zakk'ri?" He teased, plopping down next to him and huddling up close, burying his face in a blanket. Kira scoffed. "You're like a fucking bunny rabbit."
"At least I'm cute," Alik complained, raising his head to stick his tongue out.
Kira rolled his eyes.

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

"Its yours. I- you were asleep and you looked so amazing. I'm sorry. I should have known better." He pulled the straightest face he could before he smirked again. His twisted sense of humor was one reason a lot of people avoided him. Nothing was off limits. "He does have a valid point, Kira. Don't hate."

[alik marai romonov]

Alik flushed, shaking his head. He nestled a little closer and Kira complained. "Whatever," He huffed, kicked Zakk's foot as he curled a little close to them. Alik yawned, that exhaustion starting to get back to him again. He curled a little closer to Zakk'ri, hanging on tightly as he closed his eyes, humming sleepily.

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

Zakk kicked his foot back, glaring at him. He wrapped his arms tightly around the smaller boy, hugging him close. "The voices aren't bothering you?" He asked. He was sure Alik was going to have a break down when he found out they weren't related. He closed his eyes, resting his chin on Alik's head.

[alik marai romonov]

"No..they started to..but it's okay now." He watched Kira scowl. "I wish they'd fucking do something about that," He muttered, and Alik lowered his gaze. He doubted the staff even knew, preferring keep it to himself. He was ashamed that he heard them, when people looked at him the wrong way for it. To him, it seemed normal enough..

[zakk'ri jon romonov]

Zakk nodded. "Me too." He admitted, rubbing his back gently. He chewed on his lip. He knew the staff would never take away the voices his brother heard. They didn't care to help any of them as long as they were being tortured. "I kind of like having you two here. It's not as.. awful as it could be. I've got my home here with you two." He kissed Alik's forehead gently.
