[yea

this is definitely getting to be longer than the average hug hikari has become relatively accustomed to, and he'd start internally fretting over whether he's invading rin's personal space and rin is being too polite to just shove him away if it weren't for rin relaxing—that's probably a good sign? right?]

No need for thanks either. I will be here for as long as you need it.

[damp]

[ It is a good sign! He's like those hamsters that become flat when you pet them enough.

For a second, it almost seems like Rin might drift off to sleep like that.

Except then he bites Hikari. Hard. Probably through his clothes, but trying to bite through them to draw blood. ]

[reinherits]

[??????

hikari's fingers dig into rin's back on reflex, before he forces them to relax to avoid hurting rin even as his mind goes into startled overdrive.]

Rin—!?

[hands going to rin's shoulders to see if he can gently push him away...!?]

[damp]

[ a trial tag... don't worry, Rin jerks back immediately, hand covering his mouth. ]

Sorry! Sorry! I don't know what came over me.

Are you okay?

[reinherits]

It's—I'm fine.

[he'll reach up to where rin bit him, fingers moving under his collar to touch the wound and coming away with a bit of blood.]

I've certainly had far worse. Are you all right?

[damp]

I'm okay!!

[ anyway runs to the washroom to rinse out his mouth help ]

[reinherits]

[...

well okay he will just sit there in bafflement]

[damp]

[ peeks back out ]

... Do you need a bandaid?

[reinherits]

Ah... [presses his hand against the bite] I suppose so.

[damp]

[ he will come back with a first aid kit, grimacing a little. ]

I'm sorry, Hikari... I. I can't believe I broke skin.

[ IS HE A CANNIBAL ]

[reinherits]

[cannibal rin arc...]

... You needn't worry. It merely startled me.

[damp]

[ stares at his neck

blood... ]

[reinherits]

[c... covers up the blood...?]

[damp]

[ COUGHS

looks back at the kit ]

Is a regular bandaid going to be big enough?

[reinherits]

Er... I suppose it is a bit of an awkward shape.

[damp]

[ pulls out some disinfectant. do you need this for human mouths?? he has no idea. ]

I hope it doesn't leave a mark.

[reinherits]

[hikari isn't exactly an expert in medical care so he will just trust rin on this...]

Mm. Well, it is not a concern if it does.

[damp]

You wouldn't be bothered by a bitemark on your neck...?

[reinherits]

[he blinks, confused.]

I've received worse marks in battle...?

[damp]

... I don't think anyone is going to think this is a battle wound.

[reinherits]

[just blinks again]

[damp]

[ he doesn't want to explain this ]

... Don't worry about it.

[reinherits]

If you say so...

[...]

Do you need water or something to drink?

[damp]

Huh? Why...?

[reinherits]

[BECAUSE YOU HAD HIS BLOOD IN YOUR MOUTH??

but he does not say that.]

Ah... never mind, then.

[awkward]
