i'm... in a cocoon... hic

I don't think you should be alone. It-- it doesn't have to be me, if you don't want me to see you, but I want it to be me? I wanna be there for you, darlin'.

yer gonna get sad. and mad. and, and then you'll leave.

I'll get sad. You said you died. That you're dying. Of course I'd be sad. But I don't think I'll be mad and I don't think I'll leave.

.....it's just gonna get worse. i'll hurt you. i, i'll be mean and ugly and hateful til i kill you too.

[He sounds SO SAD about this.]

I don't think so. You're cranky, but not mean. And you aren't hateful, not that I've seen. An' I'm real sturdy.

i am. y-you just haven't seen me fall apart.

Then let me be the judge of if I can handle it. I'm a grownup, and you've warned me.

...Please. You're hurting. Let me be with you?

[SNIFFLES AND HICCUPS]

i don't wanna be alone

Where's your cocoon, darlin'?

dorm..........

I'm on my way. Come out to let me in?

[He's jogging]

[lol no he's just going to curl into a ball and sulk]

[well fine he'll knock until someone lets him in. you butt.]

I'm here.

[look up. there's a lump in the spider nest on the ceiling.

HOW WILL YOU GET UP THOUGH?]

[puts his hands on his hips.]

I will fuck up your walls getting up there if you leave it to me.

[i mean. LOOK AT THIS DORM. there's bricks covering up a hole in the wall, a rug covering the still bloodstained carpet... they're definitely not getting the deposit back on this place.]

Mmnnghhh........

...Well, I told you so.

[Good thing he bought a bootknife this time, though he's going to the kitchen to see if they've got a second one to commandeer.]

[let's be real, kaine's so drunk that even if he did try to help randy up, he's more likely to just fall out of his nest.

did he... doze off? yes probably.]

[then he won't have to see Randy scaling the closest wall with knives for handholds. It's fine.]

I'm gettin' in, babe.

[tbh that's pretty sick. sad to miss it.

When Randy gets into the web, the jostling stirs Kaine from his drunken stupor. There's a bottle of vodka next to him and... it's practically still full??

From the way he's curled up on himself, it's hard to make out his full face, but. Some of the degeneration is still visible. Like the skin of a rotting fruit, with canker sores and burned flesh.]

Rndy.....

[gently patting his head.]

Does it hurt, Kaine?

[GUESS WHO'S A VETERAN,]

[he doesn't answer. instead, he grabs randy and curls around him like a miserable stray, burying his face into the other man.]

[oh

tucks himself close, wrapping his arms tight around him.]

[it's cuddling time now. forever. :c]

i thought i had longer 'fore... i started degenerating.
