Would you tell me if someone hurt you?

[ Not because he would want to coddle him over every injury... Floyd gets in fights all the time. It's something Jade enjoys about him. His powerful tide is something Jade has always adored about him, but... there's a difference in fighting or striking out with intent.

Just like there is a difference in hurting for the sake of causing pleasure and inflicting pain simply to hurt. ]

[eelusive]

Huh? Where'd that come from?

[Floyd opens his eyes and settles his head against the bed so he can look at Jade proper. Well... he supposes he doesn't have any reason to hide that information from Jade, does he? ... Unlike someone who chose to hide his missing eye until Floyd asked about it.]

If they hurt me just for the sake of hurting me, then 'course I'd tell you. I'd want us to get revenge together.

[ He doesn't like to make people worry... but he doesn't think that he could get away with hiding anything from any of them anymore even if he wanted to. Between Floyd watching him more closely and Rook being... Rook. Lilia was also a strangely attentive one despite having no reason to be.

Perhaps that's just his way of being a Dominant and looking out for Submissives? He's never spoke to him enough to really know. ]

Good. That is how it should be.

[ Jade lets his own eyes close then with a content sigh. It might be himself that he needs to worry about more, but he has to wonder just when things became that way. Back home no one would even get the opportunity to lay a hand on them in a way that really matters, would they? ]

For you, I would not hesitate at all.

[He doesn’t want to watch Jade so closely. Truthfully, Floyd would give anything to return to how they were before arriving in this world—comfortable and at peace with being apart. But times are different. They’re being forced to grow up in a world they’ve yet to understand, with bodies that barely feel like their own.

Floyd trusts Jade—his strength, perseverance, and will to survive. Everyone else, not so much. Everyone else… not at all.

So, curled up close, Floyd takes Jade’s words to heart and allows his eyes to fall shut once again.]

… Mn. I know.

[he mumbles, barely conscious as he slides a hand across the sheets in search of Jade’s own. Their legs stay tangled, mimicking their tails as best as they can. It seems, at long last, all those nights of poor sleep have caught up to him.]

… Good night, Jade.
