o10 ★ DON'T RUN WITH SCISSORS

[electrowhipit]

...

I need some help. A medic. A healer. Whatever. Sooner would be... ow. Sooner would be better than later.

I'm at Sideswipe's place... 5718 Cunningham Lane.

It was just an accident.

((ooc; This is what happens when you forget humans don't have armor plating. You'll find Jolt still sitting in the bathtub.))

[He shakes his head slightly, draping his arms around him.]

I'm sorry.

[electrowhipit]

It's not your fault.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is! I should have known... I should have...

[electrowhipit]

[ He twists around- it's painful, but he does his damnedest not to show it ] It is not. And don't you dare think differently.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Sit--sit still! You're going to make it worse, damn it!

[Subject change? Maybe.]

[electrowhipit]

No. Not until you listen to me.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Not until you stop leaking!

[electrowhipit]

I will be fine. You need to stop acting like this is the end of the world.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... if you'll be fine, maybe I don't need to stick around.

[electrowhipit]

I- That's... not what I meant.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

You'll probably rest better if I'm not here to upset you.

[electrowhipit]

No. No, no, no. Stay. Please stay.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... [All right then, he'll just... stay here. Being your backrest.]

[electrowhipit]

[ The silence is breaking his heart a little, and he'll just lean back against you. ]

I'm sorry.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[He squeezes your shoulders, keeping you there. Stay warm.]

Why are you apologizing?

[electrowhipit]

I'm the one who suggested the spar in the first place. I'm the one who was stupid enough to get hurt.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

I'm the one who used live steel on you.

[electrowhipit]

And I'm the one who should be a good enough fighter that that shouldn't matter.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... and I'm the best. I should have... been more careful.

[electrowhipit]

And-- [ there's a long pause. he's run out of arguments and he's run out of energy ]

I know... that it wasn't intentional. And I forgive you.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[Just... holds onto him.]

I don't want you to.

[electrowhipit]

[ he pulls away very suddenly, hissing through his teeth and pressing a hand to his side ]

Why? Do you... want me to hate you? Is that it?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

No--Stop moving, damn it!

I just--I don't want to do it again! I figure... if you don't... it'll help.

[electrowhipit]

... [ you see this look? you are getting this look ]

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... what?
