“Your hand is hovering over your watch as if you’re expecting me to attack you when all I’ve done is talk to you.”

“Even a hero like you can fool himself into thinking everything is okay.”

“The reality of the situation is you can’t even bring yourself to relax because you haven’t known a sense of calm in years.”

“You need help, Ben.”

A scene from my recent thread with @omniversus where Reily gives Ben what I like to call “Aggressive Therapy” in which she takes none of his bullshit and actually calls him out on his shitty ways of coping with his trauma.

"Dude, just this once, can you shut the fuck up?" Ben mumbled half heartedly, scratching absentmindedly at the bandages over his arm, too close for comfort to the watch. Today had been exhausting, even for him, and Ben just didn't have the energy to be angry anymore, and that was new. It lead to an unusual softness in his voice that he wished wasn't there. The Omnitrix hadn't timed back in yet, otherwise he would be home already. He just wanted to go to sleeeeep. "That all suuccked." - Bben

His eyes fell upon the messy bandages, watching as the other scratched and tugged upon the white cotton fabric before deciding to replace them. Brushing anxious fingers away the Rennovaghander grabbed a scoop of Ambar from his belt's vial.

"Hold still."

The cold liquid began coating the open injury with ease as the ooze melted away between the folds. Golden juice solidified to contact as bruised and damaged skin began to return to its natural state.

Gentle fingers carefully re-applied the bandages, dark eyes focused on Ben's arm before pulling away.

"It's not going to heal overnight, but if you keep putting this on for a few more days it won't even leave a scar."

« i’m running out of time… i don’t know for how long i can fight back- » bben to brook

"Fuck that! Fuck that bullshit Tennyson! Since when do you give up so easily huh?

When has anyone ever told you what you can and can't do? If you lose this fight it's because you're a coward, a god forsaken coward that ran out of excuses to give up until this landed right on your damn lap.

No one ever tells you what to fucking do.

I thought you were a joke before, but you could at least stick up for yourself. This? This is sad, pathetic..you're pathetic."

》〉 Questions for Muns of Canon Muses

What is an aspect of your muse’s canon material or canon existence that you never had the opportunity to explore but really want to? // @omnivurse​

This one is kind of hard to answer, mainly because while I do explore ideas about Gyro it’s all very, very much behind the scenes. There isn’t a lot about Gyro that we see in the show that wasn’t inevitably covered in some way. I guess really his build up with Boyd, but that opens a can of worms that I don’t feel like dealing with.

Another one would also just be Gyro in a more casual setting. Not work, as rare as that is. We can see through his clones that he can actually relax and have a good time. He’s not always a tight ass. That would be fun, but it would have to be with specific people. His youth is a good one as well, since that was just vaguely referenced and the timeline in canon has never made sense to me.

‘ i was here all night. ’ (Ben for Rook, worried parnter noises)

A small smile itched the corners of his mouth, silently sighing as he rested a hand upon the brunette's own. It was just like Ben to worry earnestly for those around him, even a stranger like him.

"Do not fret, I am stronger than I may come off as. Please do not worry for my sake, you have higher priorities to look after.

Please do take your leave, this be but, uh.."

How did that phrase go? The one that made Ben laugh the other day..

Ah!

"Internal bleeding is good yes? Blood is supposed to stay inside."

Did he do that right?

“you’ll be even worse off if you don’t let me bandage this.” Ben @ 23

"I said I can handle it! I was just fine before you! I didn't need anyon-" 

His nostrils flared, blue eyes watering as he forcefully tugged his arm away from Ben's grip. The movement hurt, a strong shock running up from the injury as he held his arm closer to his chest.

He was Ben 23, the super star. The ultimate hero, everyone looked up to him..

His manager was right, all of this was a mistake.

"Let's find a Mr. Smoothy, I have stuff to do back home."

“let me take care of you, for once.” Ben for Rook

It would be pointless to keep fighting the hero, head and back resting upon the human's lap as Rook held onto his arm. The soothing motion of Ben's breathing bring peace to his aching head.

"Protocol states that you should head back to the cargo ship and call reinforcements..alas I am well aware that you will not proceed as expected."

Not that he would have followed any rules if their roles were reversed.

"Magister Tennyson will be far from impressed by my performance.."

Though his worried mind wondered if he fear more that they could be separated as a duo, now that it was clear they couldn't keep their personal life and professional one apart.

"I, apologize."
