I’m sure I’ll see it later tonight. [Ah, night terrors. He kisses Will’s shoulder, his jaw, his cheek.] Maybe it’s a trophy. He does sound pathological. [He leans up to kiss his temple.] If you want to hunt down his stash, I’ll help you. …Tomorrow probably. I think… you should stay here with me for the night. [He needs to just know Will is safe for the next 8 or 10 hours or so.]

[ Ah, of course the night terrors. Will frowns and kisses Malcolm where he can while he's getting kissed. It ends in an extra bit of squeezing close, as if he could meld with the man and take his horrible nightmares away. At least Will can be there, a friendly face when Malcolm wakes up. He runs his unbloodied hand through Malcolm's hair, gently combing through it.

And it's only now that he's thinking more clearly that he realizes an added benefit to feeling so clingy for Malcolm- it also means Malcolm isn't out there getting demoted. He remembers how he sounded on the communicator. So he easily nods at the suggestion. ]

I think I should, too. Make sure I'm really back to normal.

But...uh, I don't know what I'd do with an extra hand. He's welcome to it, I guess? Not like it's going to do him any good when he gets caught and locked down.

It’s not weird, him having a piece of you? We could cremate it or something. Only if you want. [Malcolm nuzzles at his neck.] Good thing you started keeping some stuff here. I can grab anything else you need when I go get Buster.

[ The nuzzling is nice. Will only moves to encourage it further. ]

It was already weird when he rushed me and cut off a piece of me. But it's not me anymore. Can't say I care too much what happens to it from here.

Thanks, though. I've got everything I need here anyway. [ He squeezes Malcolm for emphasis. ]

Malcolm smiles against his neck. “Yeah?” He hesitates, then murmurs “Well… maybe you need some help in the shower…?”
