[Hinata's eyebrow twitches slightly-- he looks up with his good eye and a wry smile like he knows what Komaeda is doing.]

Go ahead. I think I can handle it. [He strokes his fingers along his back. He doesn't like making him worry or panic, and admittedly he probably doesn't do it as much here as he might have in Haven.]

[Shh. No he's an enigma. A total enigma! But he smiles in response to the one on Hinata's face, pressing another kiss to his forehead now.]

You may regret saying that. Just remember. [But Komaeda is teasing now, soft and light, because after what Hinata's been through, he's just relieved to have him home and safe and calmed enough that he's able to smile again.]

[Hinata thumbs at his back, tracing through fabric the shape of his shoulders, scratching too, just for the sake of scratching.] I don't think that'll happen. But I'll remember.

[And he'll remember to tell him that he's wrong and that he doesn't regret it at all-- he probably could never.]

[Does Hinata really think that? Komaeda blinks a moment before he ducks his head to nuzzle into Hinata's hair again, sighing contentedly. He knows he can't keep him here that much longer, but it's still reassuring to have him nearby and safe and sound for the moment.]

Good.

[A pause and he murmurs quietly.] Are you feeling better? Does anything hurt? You were a little banged up.

Aa, I just had grazes this time. No bullets actually hit me. And it's not really that bad, just a little sore.

[He touches his cheek-- finding a bandage there.] You patched me up, huh...?

[He looks up at him for confirmation.]

["No bullets actually hit me" is a horrifying sentence and Komaeda stares at him for a moment before sighing quietly. Jeez. His boyfriend. But at least he's all right. That's what really matters.

Komaeda nods though.] Mm. Just a little bit. I wasn't sure if there were any injuries I couldn't see... [Internal bleeding or broken bones] But I tried to at least clean and bandage what I could.

[WELL, IT'S TRUE...!! Hinata looks back at that staring, faintly abashed and especially when he sighs. D-don't sigh, Komaeda.]

I had my Aura, so I wasn't in as much danger. [He shifts one of his hands, peering wonderingly down at it.] It fended off bullets. Once the robots were gone, it wasn't too bad. But thanks, Nagito, for patching me up.

[His Aura fending off bullets was the result he had been hoping for considering he is a squishy human and bullets tend to be pretty effective but actually getting to use it in action was another story.]

[He's totally going to sigh. His boyfriend got shot at. By bullets.]

It worked well then? [He owes Yang a thank you then, doesn't he? Yup. He'll buy her a card and flowers or something.]

Mm-mm. There's nothing to really thank me for, you know. It's the natural thing for me to do in this case. I'm just glad you woke up... [Before he really started freaking out.]

Aa. [SAVED HIS SKIN. His very susceptible-to-bullets skin.

Hinata feels a small lump in his throat appear at those words and he opens his mouth, his head moving in a small shake. He was worried that Hinata wouldn't wake up?]

... 'Course I would. I'm not going to leave you by yourself.

[Of course he was worried! The fact that Hinata was unconscious and he couldn't wake him -- and he couldn't figure out why. Most of his injuries looked superficial, after all, so not being able to explain it or fix it.

But it's okay. Here they are, and he's awake, and okay so one eye isn't working, but they can figure that out. And if not Komaeda will be his other eye!! Somehow. It'll probably end in disaster, but he'll try his very hardest.]

Hajime... good. Don't. If you did, especially like that, I'd be angry at you for sure. [Except he'd actually be mostly distraught and shattered, but he's trying to look tough here.]

[Hinata makes a sheepish sound, his head ducking.]

I won't. I promise. [He couldn't have prepared for that, though he wishes he had brought along more things with him in anticipation of security bots and all of what did happen. He'll remember next time. Spare no caution, with CERES.

Tucking in, he closes both eyes and exhales.]

Good. If it's a promise, you can't go breaking it.

[He knows that isn't how this works, that Hinata wouldn't choose to in this case but circumstances are often out of both their control.

But at least they have been reminded about the need for caution. Komaeda smooths a hand over Hinata's hair once more. It really would be best if he rested for a little while, right? Even if he knows Hinata wnats to go protagonist.]

[Hinata's forgetting a little about his protagonist-ing when Komaeda pets his hair... Mmm. It feels so nice. He wants to cuddle in and fall right to sleep but he's resisting. Something in his mind is reminding him he should make sure to get in touch with people...

Nnn... Tired...]

I'd never wanna break a promise to you, [sleepily.]

[Just as planned! Komaeda's devious scheme works again... except this scheme is less murdery and more keep Hinata quiet and resting...y. Also so far it's working and not backfiring horribly.

So more hair letting as he drops his voice to a softer tone.] I know. Hajime's word is good. Right now... promise you'll take care of yourself okay?

[He knows Hinata pushes himself so hard sometimes. Too hard. He's only human at the end of the day -- a squishy fragile human.]

[So crafty. Hinata's vaguely aware of it, but not enough to try to fight it. He's comfortable and Komaeda's a reassuring warmth. Besides, his voice is pleasant when he lowers it like that, and Hinata feels a warmth settling in his chest when he hears his name.]

Mm.

[His head moves in a tiny nod.]

[Perfect. Just give in, Hinata. Komaeda will stay and hold him and pet his hair until he's sure he's asleep at the very least. Actually, he may just stay the whole time through because, well, it's reassuring for him too, to have Hinata close and okay after the nervousness over his condition earlier.]

Good...

[It's a promise then! He'll hold him to that one too. Starting right now.]
