3 - In the Infirmary and Other Things

[primalfanatic.livejournal.com]

1) // ACTION //

[Flynn is in the infirmary after his exertion during the previous mission. Despite everything, he actually doesn't have any major injuries. He was just dehydrated slightly and exhausted. He wakes up the next day, and spends it staring at the ceiling silently unless of course, someone were to come see him.]

2) // JOURNAL //

[Posted to his personal journal, but still publicly accessible.]

Conor is an idiot. I always assumed he had thought everything through, it's what leaders should do.

This proved that he didn't. He was so sold on an instant fix that he was willing to throw his life away on a gamble. A gamble which would push the world even further from his dream.

I get it now, that's what it is, a dream. There is no way the world will become that within our lifetimes. It's not possible. And even if it was, it's unnatural.

But I don't know what to do now. So I'll stay here, and see more of the world today. Then I'll decide what to do.

Flynn shrugged, "Didn't do anything someone here does every other day." He really didn't think he did anything special. Really, he had failed at the most important things. But he had already mused enough about that, and there was nothing he could do the change the past. Nevertheless, his grin did momentarily falter before returning.

Kensuke didn't fail to notice it either, but he wasn't really sure how say anything about it.

"Just because we all do it, doesn't make what you do an less important." It was useless to say these things to Flynn of course, but Kensuke felt he should. "I mean, I uh... well, uh..." He looked down his nose and sweated a little bit. "I mean, to me at least..."

"Thanks." Flynn responded.

He still wasn't sure what to say though, so he decided to just ask, "Did you just come to see me? Or did you have something you wanted to talk about?"

"Well I, I just came to see you. I thought you might like the company, and I thought, maybe you might..."

I thought you might need me. But I'm probably just a fool. he told himself, inwardly.

"...might be board or... lonely. And when I heard you where here all I could think was that I wanted to be there with you. Ya know?" He blushed stupidly, and pushed up his glasses, dismounting the chair, and standing up.

"Oh awesome. I can leave though, it's not like they are keeping me under watch." He shrugs, "I just hadn't yet."

"Oh well.... uh. I see." Boy, Kensuke couldn't catch a break. It was like trying to love to a stone sometimes.
He had thought in a moment of weakness they could have shared something...
daydreams never translate well to real life.

"Do you want me to go? I mean, I have to run sync tests later anyways. But I wanted to check on you, but now it seems it was completely unnecessary and I uh..." He rambled, with each word he was tying himself into more a knot.
This was hard.

"Why would I want that? I thought I just said I could go. Don't you want to hang out?" Flynn wasn't exactly sure what Kensuke was trying to do. He knew Kensuke liked him, like... LIKED him liked him. But that didn't mean their relationship was going to be that different did it? It wasn't as if there was a time when this wasn't the case after all.

Kensuke was just flustered and awkward, since he had confessed his feeling he wasn't sure what to do most of the time. He didn't want to be a bother, or seem too eager, and yet he was eager. Eager and confused. Courting, especially a boy as strange as Flynn, was the most confusing thing he had even set himself up.

"I uh... sorry." He apologized and rubbed the back of his head.
Kensuke came over to Flynn closer now, his heart hammering in his chest so hard he was sure the whole ship could hear it.

"I mean, on the upside, it's quiet here, and there isn't anyone else around. And..."
He stood close to the bedside now, his cheek flushing brightly. Looking down at Flynn, and swallowing the knot in his throat.

"If you want to sit around here that's fine, but there isn't much to do." Flynn said while leaning back with his arms folded behind his head.

[my-time2-shine.livejournal.com]

There was plenty to do, Kensuke thought to himself.

Before he over thought it, he sat down on the edge of Flynn's bed. And then, as his glasses slid down his nose, he asked, "How did you do that... that thing with the water? It was... it was pretty cool." His voice cracked slightly.

"That was an elemental. Any Dsciple of Baphomet can do something like that." He smiles, "Thanks though."

He looks up at the ceiling, "So what's with the nervousness? I thought we were past this?"

Kensuke sort of cringed when Flynn called him out like that, but the way the redhead said 'we' softened the blow.
"Yeah," He laughed a little, "Me too." Kensuke couldn't help but blush as he admitted his fault.
He pushed up his glasses, and sat back, un-hunching his shoulders from their defensive position.

While Flynn's eyes where on the ceiling, Kensuke's studied the other boys face. He did need to get over all this, so he did the only thing he could think to do.

In a quick, clumsy motion Kensuke turned and put one hand on Flynn's far shoulder, and leaned down, closing his eyes tightly,kissed him timidly. His glassed slid down his nose, and his short blond hair fell around his freckled cheeks.

Flynn blushed at that, he wasn't sure what to do. What did Kensuke want him to do? Did he want him to just sit there? Kiss back? He didn't know the non Disciple etiquette for this situation, so he momentarily froze in indecision.

When Flynn didn't return the gesture Kensuke was sure he had messed up.
He pulled back a little bit, swallowing hard. Peering sheepishly over the rims of his glasses, he smiled weakly.
"I never know what to say, or how to express myself properly. I get worried I'm going to mess everything up." He confessed in a soft voice. "But I've been wanting to do that..." Maybe his want was the root of his nervousness, maybe it wasn't.

Flynn nodded, still blushing a bit, "Oh. I wasn't sure what to do."

He stared at him, "You wanted to kiss me? Then why didn't you?" He asked simply.
