Characters: Sollux Captor and YOU
Setting: Anywhere you like, he'll be walking down the stairs towards the cafeteria
Format: Any is fine; I'll follow your lead
Summary: Sollux is having some trouble recovering from his labyrinth punishment
Warning: Baw.

[Sollux spent the first day after being released from the labyrinth curled up on his sleeping rectangle. He didn't much respond to anything his roommates might have said to him, lost in his own brain, and confused.

The couple of days he spent as a Helmsman seemed like an eternity, and now that he's been released, he doesn't know what to do with himself. The memories of who he is seem like foreign invaders. Sollux. He's Sollux, right? Who is Sollux?

Hunger, and a vague knowledge that food doesn't come intravenously to him here finally drives him to his feet and out of the door.]

[scalemate]

[She is really, really starting to hate this tower.]

But you're not. You're Sollux.

[thekidsare0kay]

I'm Thollukth. [Just saying it makes him feel more like himself. He says it again, more firmly] Thollukth Captor. And you're my moirail.

[scalemate]

[She nods, pulling away just enough to grin at him.]

Right! And you're a giant computer nerd with a weird obsession with bees, not a Helmsman.

[thekidsare0kay]

Right. [He starts to grin back, tentatively] And you're a butt.

[scalemate]

Wrong.

[She kisses his cheek and finally pulls away, taking both of his hands in hers.]

Are you hungry?

[thekidsare0kay]

Pretty sure I'm right about that one. [He smiles at the kiss and squeezes her hands, slowly starting to sort out what's real and what's not] Yeah... I'm hungry.

[scalemate]

Good! Me too.

[She links her arm with his and starts towards the stairs.]

I'm really glad you're back.

[thekidsare0kay]

I'm glad to be with you. [He leans in to give her a nuzzle] Thankth, tz...

[scalemate]

[She grins, poking him in the ribs.]

You are such a sap.
