060: Mood to Burn Bridges

[contract_star]

[Hei appears on the Plane sitting on a low wall surrounded in a blue glow. The glow cuts off almost instantly after he appears, and he promptly slumps forward on the wall, gripping the concrete edge to keep from falling off. He's pale and shaking a little, and black blood is flowing rather steadily from his nose. It's clear that he's exhausted, but he looks more surprised than anything.]

[He sits there panting and dripping blood onto the floor before he raises a hand to wipe it away.]

...That wasn't supposed to happen.

[A familiar little green shape stops a few feet away]

What, you bleeding like that? One might call it a cause for concern if it was supposed to happen.

[lamb_of_gold]

Hei?

[contract_star]

[He manages to raise an eyebrow at the little snake, holding the back of his hand against his nose as he tries to stem the flow.] Do you really think I'm that much of a masochist?

[contract_star]

Mu. I'm alright. It's not as bad this t-- [Oh, right.] I'm fine.

[madamemoiselle]

{Sup Hei, sitting next to you}

Ne, Hei, did you get in trouble again?

[lamb_of_gold]

This time?

[a pause]

If I were to say something excessively witty regarding Misaki, would I get beaten for it?

[contract_star]

[=_=] You are a snake, Crowley, and I'm a lot bigger than you. [Not that he has the energy to even try to step on him right now.]

[contract_star]

Never mind. [Pressing the back of his hand to his nose and trying to stem the flow now.]

[contract_star]

[He holds his nose, trying to slow the bleeding.] Not really, no. This...I don't know. It was an accident.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Right.

[slithering a bit closer] What happened to you, then?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Reaches over and pinches the bridge of Hei's nose, letting a bit of his cosmo flow in - it's clumsier than usual, and a lot warmer, but his control isn't as precise yet]

Please?

[madamemoiselle]

{Oh, Hei, you are wasting that delicious, delicious blood. Diva looks a bit anxious, and her eyes are fixed on his nose}

An accident? What happened?

[mercwamouth]

Y'know, you'd stop having nose bleeds if you kept your finger out of there.

[contract_star]

[He takes his hand away to check the blood. His hand is rather covered in sparkleblood at this point, but the bleeding is slowing.]

I was trying to sever our realities and I... [He sighs.] I don't know. I triggered my ability instead.

[contract_star]

[Hei stays very still while Mu is healing him.]

The times this has happened before your...older self was around. It's not like this is a common occurrence. It happens when I use one of my abilities.

[contract_star]

I was trying to sever a reality and...my mind went into my power instead. I didn't mean for it to.

[He sees you watching him, Diva, and tries to cover up the blood as best he can.]

[contract_star]

Shut up, Deadpool. [He pinches the bridge of his nose and cups his hand around his nose to try and stop the bleeding.]

[madamemoiselle]

{She turns her eyes up to his, speaking more coolly}

Whose?

[lamb_of_gold]

What did He do?

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

[...there are so many things wrong with this, Hei...he doesn't even know where to begin.]

I thought I'd said it wouldn't be necessary to sever them?

[mercwamouth]

Shouldn't you tilt your head back or something? You're getting blood all over the space-floor.

[contract_star]

...

...You said there was no hurry.

[contract_star]

Healed me. [Slight smirk.] Lecture me about it. He was going to teach me how to control it, but I didn't expect to use it again until I--saw him again.

[contract_star]

Crowley's. He wanted it.
