EchoXFives!lives post citadel!!
Echo grumbled slightly as the edges of his prosthetic limbs ached. It was always the wet weather that had his amputated limbs aching with the metal that had been fixed to help him walk again.
Echo grumbled slightly as the edges of his prosthetic limbs ached. It was always the wet weather that had his amputated limbs aching with the metal that had been fixed to help him walk again. He stared down at the newer prosthetic. The one General Skywalker had made for him and smiled softly at the flesh hand that was holding the prosthetic, stimulating the artificial nerves so that they tingled. Fives was fast asleep. Thoroughly exhausted after another long day of bringing all of his evidence and collection of stuff before the council of inquiry after they’d found him following the trail he’d left Echo. Echo had known he could count on Fives. Fives was smart. He’d been so smart and Echo couldn’t have been prouder of his riduur. He was also thankful to Fox. Who’d scraped Fives off the floor and kept him safe until he could slip away. The scar from that particular encounter was pale against Fives’ tan chest and Echo shifted to brush his fingers against the edges of the raised skin. Fives mumbled something in his sleep and Echo couldn’t help the silly grin that tugged at his lips. The part where his fake arm connected to the stump of his flesh arm ached again and he grumbled, pulling back to rub at it. Fives stirred and Echo frowned. He hadn’t meant to wake Fives, but all coherent thought, including recognizing and registering the pain from his prosthetics fled as Fives’ mouth found his. Fives pulled away from the kiss slightly and mumbled into Echo’s mouth. “Why aren’t you sleeping, Ey’ika?”
He mumbled and Echo had to remember how to even function before he could respond. “My prosthetics hurt.” He said truthfully, knowing that Fives would always pick out a lie a mile away. They just knew each other too well. Which is why Echo had seen the signs Rex hadn’t. Had followed the trail that Rex hadn’t been able to see. And found Fives. Fives moved, gently pulling Echo to his chest. “I’m sorry, cyare. Can I help somehow?”He asked and Echo found himself listening to Fives’ heartbeat more than focusing on the pain. “Mm, this is nice.” Echo responded and he could feel Fives’ smile. “Good, it’s supposed to feel nice. To be nice. Now rest, Ey’ika. I’ve got you. And I’ll keep you safe, even if I can’t make the pain go away.” Fives said quietly and Echo couldn’t help but relax into his cyare’s arms. He knew Fives had him. Would always keep him safe. Now that they were together again.
THERE YE HAVE IT - I am working through the prompts now!! Sorry to those of you to have been kept waiting so long!
