[Karkat. It is Karkat...it's a...fuck, it's as close to a miracle as anything. Karkat is here...he's really here...

[He gives himself a few moments to process this...and then he's jumping up from the bed, and standing a few feet from his moirail, eyes wide and the weakest, faintest hint of a smile on his lips.]

Hey man...

[Karkat just stares at him for a moment, expression twisting around just a little bit, because he really is relieved, but fuck, he was worried--he'd just gotten him back, he didn't want to lose him again...]

[Waking up here had been absolutely terrifying. He hadn't known if Gamzee was actually here with him or not, but that didn't stop him from trying to find him, regardless. And it looked it was the right thing to do.]

C'mere, dumbass.

[Reaching out, now. 'Mere, moirail.]

[Yes sir.

[As soon as those arms are out, Gamzee is doubled over and resting in them, hands balled into fists against his moirail's chest, face hidden against the shorter troll's shoulder.

[And he freezes, just like that, his whole body tensed as if to hold on...As if to keep this moment hanging, frozen, so that nothing else bad can happen...]

[Karkat holds him close to him, glancing to the bed and then shifting to move him over there. Less awkward if they're sitting down together... and Karkat can keep him more securely held. He didn't mean to scare him like that. Even though it's not his fault, he knows it's not fair to Gamzee. He knows the taller troll needs him. He's just glad he found him before something terrible happened...]

You're okay. Got it? You're fine.

[It's a good thing the bed is only a few feet away from where they had been standing, because Gamzee is still tensed and clinging to Karkat as they're moving. He can barely manage a nod toward the other's consoling, and the instant they hit the soft mattress he's got his legs curled up underneath him and his head in Karkat's lap, body finally relaxing.]

Up and took me from you man...right as we were getting our motherfuckin' best friend on...

They motherfuckin' took me from you...and you up motherfuckin' found your way along...

[He is convinced that this is what happened. What a wonderful, spectacular moirail he has...]

[Well, he's very wrong, there. Karkat has no idea why these "gods" dragged them here. He woke without his teammates, without any way of knowing they were here. He'd had no idea if Gamzee had been there. But he did immediately go looking for him.]

... Yeah, well. I couldn't just let you run around alone.

[He settles a hand in Gamzee's hair, the other resting on his shoulder.]

[No...No, he really couldn't just let Gamzee go running around on his own, could he? It makes the other troll tighten his grip a bit, just thinking about it...and for just the tiniest split second, he feels this strange annoyance...but it passes quickly. Karkat's right...definitely, definitely right...and he is hella thankful that he's here now.]

Glad you didn't, man...

... I wouldn't.

[Not again. Not now. Karkat continues the soothing movements of stroking through his hair, keeping his voice lower since it's just the two of them.]

Naw, man...naw, you wouldn't...

[And why? Because you are the best motherfuckin' moirail in the entire universe, in any universe. That's why.

[That stroking, that repetitive motion...it does more good than you'd think. Gamzee's almost entirely relaxed now, save from the occasional tightening of his grip on Karkat's shirt...His voice is softer and no longer fluctuating, and his expression is...almost peaceful. Like the eye of the storm, really...a calm surrounded by chaos building...

[But Karkat can keep it at bay...he will. He is the best moirail. It is him.]

[He will keep it at bay. He can't afford Gamzee going nuts in a place like this, and he doesn't want his best friend going through that. He went through a bit of hell getting him back the first time... Gamzee's terrifying when he loses it, and Karkat never wants him to deal with being lost like that again.]

The room I was given is right across the hall. You can come in and find me whenever you want. If you can't sleep, you know... Come get me.

Huh? Oh...

[His expression does deflate a little when Karkat says that...Gamzee really isn't crazy about the idea of him leaving at all, even if it is just to sleep...but he doesn't argue. He only tightens his grip and nods.]

SOUNDS GOOD--

[Clearing his throat.]

Eheh...motherfucker...

[Smiling weakly.]

But not...yet...

[Right? D:]

No. Not yet.

[He knows that tone was brought on by an upset, and it's quite obvious why.]

I think we'd better stick together as much as possible.

Yea, man...

Me too...

[Things are better when Karkat's around. Things are okay when Karkat's around...

[Bearable...]

[He still hasn't stopped stroking Gamzee's hair, doing his best to keep him calm while he's in this wild card state. A stable recovery from a scare that bad is key right now; Karkat knows that.]

Then whoever gets up first gets the other one up tomorrow.

Yea...

[Squeezing tighter. He doesn't want you to leave...he doesn't want to think about you leaving. He doesn't want to think that there will be a need to wake each other up, or go find eachother's rooms to sleep or...or anything like that. Because you are here, and you are real, and you are never leaving...ever.]

[Not as long as he can help it. He isn't going to say anything anymore, just... be there, with him. For him. They'll be alright.]
