Earth (Second timeline)

Silver buffer again,”Uh..-” Casi tired to say something but Silver let her go, pushing her to the troll and Cherub. Silver stood and curled up in the corner. “..I think you hurt his feelings.”
-
-Cunneris sighed and looked down, “I was just trying to..” He shut himself up and looked at Silver, “Look, I am sorry. You can come join us, I am just asking that you don’t cling the life out of her. Okay?” He tried to maintain an apologetic tone but something in him wanted to tear it apart, but he held that feeling back. Eridan could hear the odd flucuation in emotion and held him tighter and ran his fingers over Cunneris’s arm. Cunneris calmed down and his wings drooped.-
-
Silver crept over and tucked himself by Casi, who was currently face down on the floor. The girl shifted and rested her back on the dragon, facing the others. Silver rumbled happily and curled his tail around the small girl. Casi grinned up at the metal dragon and patted his side, wrapping an arm around her abdomen.
-
-Instead of asking her up again, Cunneris slid himself down. As he put pressure on his leg, he let out a hiss of pain. Eridan followed him off and helped him down. Cunneris layed down next to Casi and smiled at her. Eridan layed on the other side of Cunneris and put an arm around him. Cunneris smiled more and moved to gently place a hand on Casi’s arm, “Would you like to hear more? Of what happened?”-
-
Casi shifted, slightly nervous at the close proximity, and Silver huffed a warning. “If you wish to talk about it, I am free to listen.” Her voice was soft and she curled her arm tighter around herself.
-
-Cunneris hesitated and said, “My sister played marvelously… She actually followed all my plans…” He seemed saddened to talk about her. “I couldn’t have gathered the leprechauns nor sunk the planets without her help. Though, it was akward to fall asleep on the fly. There were some planets we were so rushed, had to fall asleep standing up.” He chuckled a little bit and then said, “I planned it throughly and we both got to the top of our ladders… but… Yeah… when it came time… They made sure I dominated.” He looked into her eyes and said, “They were keen on doing so, and I don’t understand why.” Eridan rubbed Cunneris and said, “Maybe they liked you better?” Cunneris shrugged and said, “They knew red is evil and green is good.. but they chose me.”-
-
Casi shrugged, not sure what to say. The girl ducked her head, lowering her eyes. She was obviously uncomfortable with the close contact, as it was understandable on being alone for most of her life.
-
-Cunneris saw the discomfort and took his hand off her and scooted back a bit, pushing Eridan and thus shocking him a bit. Cunneris then looked at her and said, “You… alright?” Eridan got comfortable behind Cunneris and closed his eyes.-
-
Casi let out a breath,”I apologize, I am okay, I’m not use to being close to anything really.” She shifted closer to the dragon,”I’m sorry, I just feel uncomfortable most of the times when I’m at close proximity to someone.” The girl kept her graze down, and tensed, waiting for his reaction.
-
-Cunneris smiled and said, “It’s alright. I can stay where you feel comfortable.” He wanted to say more but he stopped himself and just smiled at her. Eridan actually fell asleep behind him and holding onto him. Cunneris peeked behind him and if he could have blushed, he would. He then looked back and resumed a soft smile at Casi.-
-
Casi looked up and relaxed,”Sorry..” She mumbled and loosened her arm. Returning his smile with one of her own. Silver rested his head by here’s and nudged her, making clicking sounds with his gears.
-
-Cunneris continued to smile and said, “No need to be sorry, it’s your nature… and sometimes you need help overcoming that.” He realized when he was talking to her, that he should take his own words into consideration and seek help if he were to have an issue with his own nature, though he could feel it slipping in and out, urges that he was having trouble fighting but keeping his mind occupied appeared to do the trick. He didn’t want to tear everyone apart despite the urge to. His wings twitched, jolting Eridan awake but he went back to sleep. It was clear Eridan hadn’t slept in a long time.-
-
Casi nodded,”Good choice of words.” She glanced at Eridan,”Is he okay?” She couldn’t see his face so to her it looked like he was just laying there. Silver nudged Casi again and pulled the girl closer to himself.
-
-Cunneris smiled when she complimented him and he peeked behind himself when she asked about Eridan. “I think he’s okay, I feel him breathing,” He spoke normally but Eridan was clearly not about to wake up from a normal level of conversation. Cunneris smiled and looked back to Casi, “I guess he hasn’t slept? Or he got over excited and exhausted himself.” He was still fighting with himself but he was obviously winning as he occupied himself with pineing thoughts.-
-
Casi nodded,”Ah.” She ignored the stinging in her back, her burn and injuries where healing fast, and just as Dirk said, only a day to heal it all. The girl sighed,”Best to let him sleep.”
