[dothelokimotion]

[ he relaxes as if he wasn't upset just a moment ago. ]

Of course not.

[unkindled_madness]

We can stay inside, if you prefer.

[dothelokimotion]

I — Whatever you want.

[ he rubs his palms together. why was he so nervous? it felt like a return to the past, when all his emotions were erratic. loki can't seem to pin them down. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[He returns to take Loki's hands, recognizing that gesture of unease.]

You can tell me, if something is wrong.

[dothelokimotion]

I — I can't tell.

My feelings are all over the place.

[unkindled_madness]

I see.

[He tightens his grip, just a little.]

Shall I hold you steady?

[dothelokimotion]

Yes, I — I need you here. Don't leave me.

[unkindled_madness]

I won't.

I think... something must be affecting you. I won't leave you to it.

[dothelokimotion]

I think it was . . . something I ate.

A sweet.

[unkindled_madness]

A sweet?

[dothelokimotion]

Yes. Red in colour, I believe.

[unkindled_madness]

[He is slightly surprised it wasn't chocolate.]

Where did you get it?

[dothelokimotion]

They were selling them at Sunset Falls.

[ his fingers tighten around sephiroth and he feels — oh, his feelings are fit to burst. he presses a kiss to his neck. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Oh... Okay. He's not really going to protest kisses.]

And you couldn't resist?

[dothelokimotion]

[ is he getting warmer? it's like it is burning through. his skin starts to flicker from pale to cold blue. ]

It seemed harmless.

[unkindled_madness]

Fair enough.

I'm sure it will pass.

[Although he frowns faintly at that flicker of color. Loki's hands feel awfully warm.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ he's gone fully blue but he hasn't noticed yet. ]

Of course. It's nothing.

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth doesn't want to pull away but also... ow. His expression tightens.]

Certainly in the scheme of things.

[dothelokimotion]

It doesn't seem too — [ oh. he freezes at the sight of his hand and yanks himself away forcibly, nearly calling at his skin. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[Sephiroth lets out a breath and inspects his hands. He can heal this.]

It's all right.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he's staring at his hands in abject horror. he's never burned anyone. he had been so careful. and the terror that sweeps through him is overpowering. his breath comes out in sharp bursts and he continues to back away. ]

No. No. It's not. I need to — I have to —

[ he's not sure. leave? run? his nails dig into his skin. ]

[unkindled_madness]

[A soft green glow settles over Sephiroth's hands, and then he looks up.]

Loki-

I'm fine. It's nothing.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki shakes his head. ]

I've never — I never. I'm not like that!

[unkindled_madness]

Not like... what?

[dothelokimotion]

Like them.

That's why everyone left, isn't it? Because I keep hurting and hurting and hurting. It never ends, it never stops.
