because Sabra AUs are fun and games until someone loses an eye

I'd rather be near a partner teammate.

[scienceping]

Then I will carry you.

[senior_citizen]

... Okay. Yeah. That'll be okay.

[ he's nervous though ]

[scienceping]

The lodgings are in this direction.

[senior_citizen]

Right.

[ heading that direction ]

[scienceping]

[directing them to Clubs, pausing once they reach the base of the stairs]

[senior_citizen]

[ approaches Spock's back then ]

[scienceping]

[hefting him up piggy-back style, going up the stairs. somehow does this feel familiar ... ?]

[senior_citizen]

[ maybe very, very deep down. in the part of steve being eclipsed by his sabra au...

this steve is about fifteen pounds lighter, though. ]

[scienceping]

[sob :( but getting him up there fairly quickly, setting him down on the bed next to Spock's]

[senior_citizen]

[ he was tense throughout the whole ride. watching their back. still looking around for exits when they sit down. ]

... So, if I need to get out of here ...

[scienceping]

The door is the most logical exit, though there are also windows. However as this is the eighth floor, I would not suggest it.

[senior_citizen]

[ glancing out it ]

No, I'd die. That'd be bad for everyone.

[scienceping]

Agreed.

The bed you are currently occupying has been empty for several weeks. It is safe for your use.

[senior_citizen]

No one's gonna kick me out?

[scienceping]

Not to my knowledge. Lodgings are not as enforced as they were in Sabra La Tau.

[senior_citizen]

No penalty then. Good.

[ settles down a bit ]

[scienceping]

Do you require anything before you rest?

[senior_citizen]

[ his gaze drifts over to the door ... ]

Shut that?

[scienceping]

Of course. Though it may be reopened by anyone lodging on this floor.

[but getting up to shut it for him]

[senior_citizen]

Right. I figured. And it's not like there's Judges to get in here.

[scienceping]

Correct.

[coming back to his own bed when it's closed, changing for bed]

[senior_citizen]

[ just huddling under the covers in what he's wearing now. ughhh it's so soft and warm... ]

[scienceping]

[... takes his own covers then, covering Steve some more]

[senior_citizen]

[ jeez, now he looks guilty ]

I'm okay.
