[he doesn't even shoot a reply text, he's already on his way to her house. Seeing it up close, he's struck again by how much care everyone put into these buildings. He'd seen Crow and Damien hard at work for Wicked and Marie's place when he'd peeked in on the other side, but seeing it in person...
It's sweet. It reminds him of how they'd all finally gotten back. And now... for this to happen... His mouth sets, brows furrowed in worry.
It does nothing to dissuade his concern as he comes on in, glancing around for Wicked.]
[ That reminds me that I need to Maddy Perez bang on his door... maybe she has since they've been back just to look at his shit, nap in his bed, and leave.
Anyway.
She sits up, the blanket wrapped tight around her as she peeks out. ]
My emotions are all over the place, not to mention how bright everything looks... I think everyone's feeling that way -- Garou-kun almost kicked my ass when he saw me.
...Wiku-chan. [he uses Buzen's name for her in this instance, as if the name could somehow -- pull her back? Snap her out of it? He moves closer, opens his hands palm up as if showing her can somehow convince her that the rest of him is undamaged,]
[ He lifts his hand and she flinches back, as if burned. A snarl escaping her lips, looking to him as if she were a wounded animal backed into a corner; her gaze switching between his fingers and to his face, reading every move he makes.
She's really just Grace at the end of Ready or Not after getting stabbed. If you don't know this reference I'll sob.
Wicked swiftly reveals her hands from underneath her blanket, both coming to hold Itsuki's hand. Her fingers twitch, like they want to curl into his knuckles and leave red crescents in her wake. ]
[ Perhaps it’s his voice that brings her back, or just the swiftness of this sudden sensation of refracting, but she begins to settle down. Slowly regaining her composure, something she has been struggling to keep afloat as the night goes on.
She holds his hand, her expression shameful. ]
Ah… why did you come. Hope it wasn’t for good company.

But no when he steps inside he'll just
Find a little lump in the bed?
She's in the fetal position under the covers. Listen. ]
no subject
HE'LL KNOCK!!! well, he'll knock on the side of the door. this too feels familiar. knocking on the door of Marie and Marceline's bedroom...
The lump curled under the blanket though? That's new.]
...Wicked-chan. Are you sleeping?
[he knows she's not but he has to ask anyway]

Itsuki...
I don't feel so good...
no subject
luckily for her he brought water! he holds it up as he moves to join her, sitting on the edge of the bed.]
...Here. Are the colors bothering you?
[along with everything else....]
no subject
But she takes the water and takes a few sips before nodding her head. ]
How are you feeling?
It feels weird... like that night.
no subject
ah...]
...Mete-chan said the same thing.

[ She looks over at him and --
Anger. Anger. Anger.
Adrenaline; her heart is racing, thrumming against her ears. ]

I'm fine, promise. He didn't hurt me.

You can't... die again, Itsuki...
I'll kill everyone.
[ LIKE... DEADASS. ]

he'll wait patiently as he sits still, and his patience is rewarded by the warmth of Wicked's hands in his.]
...Thank you, Wicked. [he deadass said thanks,
unfortunately he's yan adjacent himself to understand what she means. that she just doesn't want to lose him, and a part of him is soft for that]
I promise I won't die again. Not when I've got you and Buzen and the others looking after me.

Came to bother you of course. ...You hungry? I can make something for you.

But no, she's probably one of those bitches who fucking HATES eating leftovers. ]
Mm... I haven't ate... thought I'd pass out and skip out on this if I did.
