STATIK: =With Sirius GONE without so much as a warning notice (and along with her their mother and Ananya), Statik was a bit...agitated at about half her family. She understood the need, of course, but it didn't make it any less frustrating that they LEFT WITHOUT HER???=
STATIK: =Going on five minutes now, she had been pacing about the tech lab, feeling a little antsy and restless. She had to get out, and so she left, making a beeline straight for one block, even though she wasn't entirely aware she was headed there.=
STATIK: =When she crossed their door, she wet her lower lip, a little daunted. She'd been a bit...well...her usual ass of a self lately and didn't want to crowd them so soon after she'd made a scene... But in her opinion there had been sufficent time between then and now and she felt like she had given appropriate space? Even so, she missed them, and they were going to know it. There's a familiar knockin on Simula's door, always in some kind of musical rhythm to spice things up.=
SIMULA: -ah yes, the tell tale signs of statik's arrival. they'd been curled up on their bed for a while, drifting in and out of a nap. having company brought about some conflicting feelings, moreso than usual. caught between that need for attention and the ever growing fear that something is going to go awry. ultimately, they give in to the former desire, and opens the door from where they're lying. they only move to sit up, glancing over at her.-
SIMULA: Hell-o. Come in. Not that you need an invitation.
STATIK: hey hey simCard ⚡ =She notices that recently-awake expression and raises her brows, but accepts the invitation into their room= i didnt interrupt your beauty sleep did i? ⚡
SIMULA: -musses with their own hair, shrugging a shoulder. they might not be the most emotive person usually, but they definitely seem extra lethargic.- You could hard-ly consider it that, if II look as shit-ty as II feel.
STATIK: =she threw an arm over one of their shoulders and pulled them into a side hug= STATIK: this is only a small speed bump. youll be beautiful again, no worries ⚡ KD
STATIK: =that is she tried throwing and arm over their shoulders.=
STATIK: =She tried, she probably only could reach one of them properly, then ended up just crossing and arm over their back.=
STATIK: =even as she jokes, her expression does flicker into a worried one=
STATIK: you looK as exhausted a deer being traCKed by an enduranCe hunter ⚡
SIMULA: -rubs at their eyes now, accepting the little scraps of affection.- It's noth-ing. II just made the mis-take of leav-ing my room again to-day.
STATIK: K(
STATIK: do i need to KiCK someones ass? ⚡
STATIK: ...
STATIK: do i need to KiCK my own ass? ⚡
SIMULA: ... No.
SIMULA: Some-thing stu-pid hap-pened. -huffs a small sigh-
SIMULA: II was hang-ing out with Dell in the cafeteria. Emilet was there. Silliness en-sued, basically. But it escalated and Dell got irrationally frustrated and-- Chucked his tri-dent at Emilet.
SIMULA: II on-ly bare-ly stopped it.
SIMULA: May-be he deserves an ass kick-ing. But II will be frank, II'm get-ting a bit tired of acts of physical violence.
STATIK: K\ oh my god... ⚡
STATIK: it Keeps HAPPENING ⚡⚡
STATIK: youre the Captain's kid! file a Complaint! start a petition! ⚡
STATIK: ill even sign it for you! ⚡
SIMULA: -scoffs- What, like an an-ti-bullying pact?
SIMULA: There's noth-ing II can do to stop peo-ple from be-ing impulsive idiots.
STATIK: =scoffs right back= NOT WITH THAT ATTITUDE! ⚡⚡
STATIK: when there are meetings in alternia's judiCiary, the league has to leave their weapons at the door and wear suppression Collars that are aCtivated during any signs of aggression. it was to avoid wrongful death. that was a problem for a while until it was solved! ⚡ CK
SIMULA: -looks.... reasonably horrified by this.- Eugh.
SIMULA: As aw-ful as Alternian cus-toms are, II sup-pose you're mak-ing a good point.
SIMULA: ... -long suffering sigh- II could al-ways talk to my fath-er, at least.
STATIK: =She didn't see anyone piledrive someone to death herself, she just HEARD things. And had a near-death experience that sent her straight back to the UU but that was a different thing entirely=
STATIK: of Course i am! ⚡⚡ OK
STATIK: =She pulled them into a tight hug, and her voice dropped a little softer,= what happened, it really bothered you, didn't it? ⚡ :C
SIMULA: ... -leans into her hug, nodding a little, unable to vocalize it.-
STATIK: it suCKs a lot to have someone you Care about be in danger ⚡
SIMULA: -glances at her, supposing she must know, if the way she's continually reacted to the finncident was any indication.- ... Yes. It does. -nonchalantly nuzzles at her shoulder a little.-
STATIK: then say something, sim! ⚡
STATIK: and if people don't listen, Keep saying something until they do ⚡
SIMULA: -quiets until she feels a little bit of wetness on her shoulder.- It feels... point-less.
STATIK: =she broke from the hug, and dipped her head, trying to look up at them=
STATIK: why?? ⚡⚡
SIMULA: -averts their gaze , but they can't hide the tears swelling in their mismatched eyes.- II made my bed a long time a-go.
SIMULA: II could keep try-ing, but why would anyone lis-ten to me? II don't de-serve the time of day.
SIMULA: II push-ed everyone a-way. That's what II want-ed. And now II'm-- -they can't believe they're letting themself break down like this, but everything hurt so badly, worse then the headache and the sparks erupting from the emotion, they couldn't hold it in anymore.-
SIMULA: II feel so a-lone.
SIMULA: Some-times II feel like you're the on-ly one who actually gives a fuck when it comes down to it.
SIMULA: Everyone is so fuck-ing con-tent to turn the oth-er cheek to-wards actual physical harm again-st me.
SIMULA: But II earned that, didn't II. This is what II get for be-ing such an ass-hole all the time.
STATIK: =she started off squinting at them, but the more they cry, the more her own tears begin to well up.=
STATIK: dont say that its not too late! i Can say for an absolute faCt that satomi and siri Care... ⚡
STATIK: but siri liKes everybody, so she doesnt Count ⚡
STATIK: looK looK looK ⚡
STATIK: =She sniffed as she squinted and placed each hand on their shoulders.=
STATIK: you didnt earn shit, and everyone else who is being an asshole about this doesnt Know a single thing about you ⚡
STATIK: they dont Care beCause its EASIER turning the other CheeK ⚡
STATIK: its easier for them thinKing theyre so freaKing PERFECT and trying to single you out beCause youre more honest about it that you arent ⚡
STATIK: they Cant grasp the ConCept theyre not as high and mighty as they maKe themselves out to be ⚡
STATIK: =her words are getting a bit snappish and angrier=
STATIK: and you Know what? they're fuCKing hypoCritiC COWARDS beCause of it! ⚡⚡
STATIK: theyre small and insignifiCant and they Cant stand it so theyre trying to maKe YOU feel that way! their tiny minds have tiny Cruel little thoughts and they arent worth shit! ⚡
STATIK: =she put a hand up to their face= youre worth way more than all of them together ⚡
SIMULA: -there's more to be conflicted about after hearing this. whether they should listen and let themself be comforted. whether it's true, whether it even matters if it's true or not. statik cared. statik saw them as something great, and not just despite the ugliness, but because of it too. they effectively lost the battle trying to keep her at bay along with everyone else. and... they're fine with that.-
SIMULA: You know... -sniffs, tentatively reaching to touch her face too. almost hesitant.- You real-ly are such an an-gry lit-tle per-son.
SIMULA: II think you give me too much cred-it. But II won't ar-gue eith-er.
SIMULA: ... Thank you, Stat-ik. For... be-ing here.
STATIK: im angry beCause all this pisses me off!! ⚡ KO
STATIK: but i wont deny im little ⚡
STATIK: =she leans into their touch, and laughs a slightly soggy laugh= and if i give you too muCh Credit, it's Cause you give yourself none ⚡
STATIK: im always gonna be here, sim. ⚡
STATIK: ...im sorry i stayed away ⚡
SIMULA: That doesn't mat-ter now. -insists, fidgeting a little before leaning in to press a kiss to her forehead.-
STATIK: =her face is turning a marvelous shade of GREEN, but not because she's sick. Statik doesn't move, because she's not sure how to take all these butterflies slamming themselves into the walls of her abdomen. Does she DARE?? Gradually though, she moved the hand she had on their face and lightly kissed the area where her touch had been.=
SIMULA: -a noise rumbles out of them like a purr -- a good indication that this is a good direction to head in. their head dips as they lean in, cheeks brushing, till they're simplying draping themself over her in another hug.-
STATIK: =Relief washed over her and she patted their face before pulling them closer in her arms, crossing her limbs over their back.=
STATIK: i wont do that to you again, oKay? i'm here for you. i'll always be here for you. ⚡
STATIK: =squeezes=
SIMULA: Then... you should stay here. Un-til II let you leave. -mumbles into her shoulder. this is what happens, statik. you give them an inch and they take a mile.-
STATIK: =There is a smile to her voice and she leaned her cheek against theirs.=
STATIK: there was only ever one option, i thinK ⚡
SIMULA: -they purr softly again, leaning heavily against her until they're both flopping back onto the bed. it's snuggle time...-
STATIK: =With Simula in her arms and she in theirs, it finally felt right. She nuzzled against them, purring herself.=
