“You look so… empty. I’m worried for you, please talk to me.” (mathematical-logic)

Newt gave him a weak smile. “I’ll be okay. It’s just, everything’s a bit much, you know? I’ve just been having a bad couple of days and then with the way everything’s going…” He shrugged.

“Newton…” He reached for his hand, squeezing it. “I understand that, but I don’t want to see you holding this in. I can’t take seeing you like this. Talk, Newt. I am here.

“It’s just stress and shit. It’ll be fine, I promise.” He squeezed Hermann’s hand back, smile widening just a little. “Just, bad mental health days and then the potential end of the world. Kinda takes it out of a guy, you know. It’s just, part of me feels like it’s my fault. Isn’t that stupid?”

“Gott help me- you got stuck here too. Of all the-” He didn’t finish, just scowled at the snow coming down outside, continuing to pile up.

“No, that’s not what I’m saying.” Hermann growled. “I’m simply saying that eventually someone will notice.” He didn’t mean it to go like that, but then again, nothing ever went the way it was supposed to around Newt. “I hope you realize we cannot stay here forever.”

“Well then do you want to be quiet maybe? If we get kicked out, I don’t have a room I can go back to,” he pointed out dryly, trying to untangle the knot in his headphones. “Besides, it’s not like we’re hurting anyone. If the heating in this building actually worked we wouldn’t be in here in the first place.”

Hermann rolled his eyes. “Most everyone has left, fleeing ahead of the storm.” He reasoned. “I can’t imagine aside from us there’s many people left.” But it was likely, he knew that. If there was someone out there then they would soon be found. It wasn’t unexpected; to Hermann it was an eventual outcome.“If there is someone, you know they are going to find us, right?”

“And? What, don’t want people to see you in my company or something?” He flicked him a half-hearted glare and went back to the limited battery on his phone, making a poor attempt to get the wi-fi to connect so he could get back to youtube.

‘’ Oh, please. ‘’ Hermann snorted. ‘’ You must be very uncreative or not trying very hard, if you only can come up with 99 ways to kill me. Also, you are bragging about it, whether you want to admit it or not. ‘’

‘’ Unlike you. ‘’ He snapped. Hermann hated that Newton had refused to use his title since he became a doctor. Why was it so hard for him to use his title? If he could say Newt, then he could for fuck sake say Dr. Gottlieb. It wasn’t any harder than that. ‘’ Right. Like I would ever be your partner in crime. ‘’ The disabled man said as he started to take care of his workmate’s chemical burns. Even though his hand was rather large and rough, he carefully and swiftly took care of the other’s injury. He was cautious to not touch the toxic liquid as he tried not to make the damage any worse. ‘’ Does it feel better? ‘’

Newt snorted a little, rolling his eyes. “I can manage to say Hermann just fine, actually. You remember, that name you used to sign your letters as? The one you let me call you before you decided you were better than me and insisted everyone call you doctor to make sure everyone knows you’re better than me?” He grumbled, scowling to himself and letting Hermann at his hand. It was nice of him to take care of it, at any rate, even though it was unexpected. He’d been expecting to just be left to take care of it himself. “Yeah, a bit. Thanks.”

Hermann turned his head, looking at his colleague with a suprised and a rather concerned glance. ‘’ What? Wait here! Don’t move! I’ll get a physician. ‘’ He always became stressed and nervous when someone who he knew got injured or sick. He wanted to help them, but he rarely could do anything. He could just watch them suffer or find someone who could help them. ‘’ Wait! I have my phone with me. I’ll call someone! ‘’

Hermann rolled his eyes. ‘’ No, I will not hurt you intentionally, but as I said before, I’m not a medical doctor and I don’t have as soft or supple hands like you. My hannds are quite the opposite. They are rough and not very supple at all. ‘’ Those words left his mouth as he took his cane and walked towards the first aid kit. ‘’ Here, let me see your hand. ‘’ He said with a soft and almost caring voice as he sat down beside him. ‘’ I promise I will do my best as long you’re still. ‘’

Newt held his hand out without any hesitation; he trusted Hermann a lot more than he did any of the doctors in the med bay, that was for sure. “Did you just compliment my hands? Huh. Can’t say that’s ever happened before.” He cast a sceptical look at his uninjured hand; they didn’t look that soft. “Your hands aren’t even rough dude.” He didn’t have much experience of touching Hermann’s hands, but when he had it’s not like they’d been noticeably rough.

“Congrats, you’re old. You still can’t undress yourself.” She moved closer to him, brushed his hands out of the way, and finished undoing his tie. “They’re sitting on your lab bench.” Shiloh’s sharp memory recalled as she unfastened the few buttons on his shirt. “Pretty sure they’re not going to get up and walk away.”

“But I can’t see!” he protested weakly, scrubbing at his eyes with the back of his hand and trying to stifle a yawn; he still wasn’t going to give in to being tired, no matter how true it was. Although he didn’t need his glasses now, he’d definitely need them when he woke up from the nap he was apparently definitely taking.

‘’ I know what sarcasm is and I recognize it. ‘’ He answered sharply, clearly annoyed again by his colleague. ‘’ Take your jacket when you’re done with your samples. We’re going shopping and after we have bought the violin, I can teach you how to play it and maybe then I can work in peace and quiet? ‘’

“Clearly not very well,” he added under his breath, nudging his glasses onto the top of his head and leaning in close so he could see better, then flicking his eyes briefly over to Hermann. “You don’t have to if you don’t want to. I’m not going to make you, I just thought it’d be nice.” He shrugged, poking at his sample.

‘’ Newt, you might be the most annoying person in the world, but you’re not trying to hurt me physical or mental like they did.’’ Hermann simply answered as he opened the first aid kid box with shaky hands. Why did he always became so stressed when other people got hurt in his presence? Urgh. He didn’t know and he didn’t like it. ‘’ So you would rather die than being in a med bay? ‘’ The K Scientist Officer took out several items from the small box, anything that could prevent the injury from getting worse. ‘’ Now let me see your hand. ‘’

“I think there was a compliment in there somewhere,” he said dryly. “But hey, check you out, finally learning my name after god knows how many years.” He made one last vain attempt at removing the remains of the glove, then reluctantly took his hand out from under the tap - the stinging got worse almost immediately. “And that’s dependent on situation. If we’re talking like, immediate death then sure, whatever, but if I’m knocked out on something and you can sneak me out of there before I wake up then that is infinitely preferable, if I’ve gotta go, I’d rather not know about it.” He was rambling a little, trying to distract himself from the pain.

“Five minutes.” She repeated. Privacy wasn’t a luxury Shiloh had been afforded growing up, so sometimes she had trouble respecting other people’s privacy. It also didn’t help that she had almost no shame and little modesty.

Shiloh actually gave Newt six minutes before turning back around. She took a look at him in his dino jammy bottoms and half undone shirt and tie and rolled her eyes. “You’re a like a kid. C’mere so I can help you.”

Newt snorted indignantly, but the effect was probably ruined by the fact that he was again patting at his shirt pocket. “Thirty five,” he informed her imperiously, “you seen my glasses?” It wasn’t like he needed them immediately, but if he didn’t keep track he’d lose them for good, and it wouldn’t be the first time.

[grrrroupie]

She snorted a little, partially in amusement over the dinosaur jammies she’d found and partially out of disgust over how long he’d been wearing the clothes. “Yeah, I’d say you need to shower, but we can probably worry about that after you’ve slept for a while.” Shiloh placed the pajamas in his hands and turned her back to him. “You’ve got five minutes before I decide to peek.”

“Do not peek,” he grumbled, but even so he wasted no time in fumbling with the buttons of his shirt, struggling to get his fingers to cooperate. Most of the ones he managed to get undone were more through luck than any sort of coordination on his part. The knot on his tie wasn’t any easier, so he gave up and shimmied out of his jeans instead.

Shiloh sighed and rolled her eyes. “Oh puh-lease. If I was so eager to see you naked I would have gotten you out of your clothes long ago.” She walked over to his dresser and started to search around for pajamas. “You just can’t sleep in those clothes. You’ve been wearing them for god knows how long.”

“Four days,” he answered automatically, picking at the stain on his shirt. “There’s blue on this. Stains,” he complained, pulling a face. He didn’t bother informing her that it was more that he didn’t want to be seen naked, interest by the other party shown or not.

‘’ Oh please. You’re nothing like them.’’ But Hermann didn’t say if he was better or worse than the others. ‘’ Of course we have a first aid kid or you wouldn’t be alive now, Dr. Geiszler! ‘’ He grabbed his cane quickly and almost ran to the first aid kit that was one the other side on the laboratory. ‘’ I  should let them build a small med bay here. Urgh. ‘’

Newt huffed loudly. “You complain about me often enough, want to rethink your answer?” He tried peeling the glove away again, hoping the flow of water would help - it didn’t. “Yeah sure, not having a first aid kit would kill me in the same way calling me Newt would kill you. And don’t even think about bringing a med bay anywhere near me. It’s staying far enough away that I can avoid it with minimal effort.”

While it seemed like he was done fighting her, Shiloh kept her grip on Newt’s shirt until they got to his room in case he got any ideas about running off. She shoved him inside the assigned bedroom before finally letting go. “Alright, strip.”

Newt gave her an affronted look. “’Scuse you.” He crossed his arms over his chest, as if that might give him more privacy - he wasn’t exactly the most comfortable without his clothes on.

“Ha!” She let out a humorless laugh. “You must really be over tired if you think I’m going to let you have coffee right now. The last thing you need is caffeine.” Shiloh grabbed the front of Newt’s shirt, avoiding the patch that had blue on it, and started to drag him from the lab.

He made vague protesting noises, trying to dislodge her hand from his shirt, but ultimately had to give in, casting a forlorn look at his unfinished work as he was dragged from his lab. The sample probably wouldn’t fare too well being left out overnight, but there wasn’t a whole lot he could do about it.

She finished taking off his gloves and removed her own, tossing them into the biohazard bin before turning back to Newt. “One what?” Shiloh didn’t exactly know why she cared if Newt overworked himself to death, and she would deny that she cared to anyone that asked, but in the end she didn’t want the little twerp to kill himself.

“Coffee,” he said deliberately, in a tone implying he’d already asked - or at least, that he thought he had. “Gonna make a coffee. Used all the syrup,” he added absently, distantly frowning to himself - he didn’t have the time to make the trip out to buy more. “You seen my glasses?”
