Rather I said something utterly sinful?

[fireshow]

like what?
fucking my crusty old body to death?

[clayking]

It would be quite a way to go.
All right, all right.
I do mean it though- the staying with you, thing.

[fireshow]

until this place spits you out again at least

[clayking]

Not much of a sliver linings mood tonight are you?

[fireshow]

not really
no
anyways
that's all i wanted to ask

[clayking]

Tell me where your head is at, John.

[fireshow]

i wish nate was here
i always went to talk to him
i just don't have that person in my life anymore
it has nothing to do with you
or with alec
he was just my best friend
and i don't have that anymore

[clayking]

Ah. I see. I wish that was a situation I could...fix.
Nate-...gave you something to lean on.
I see.
I didn't think it had anything to do with me. Or your feelings about me.
I miss him too- perhaps not in the same way but...I feel his absence.

[fireshow]

yeah
anyways
that's all it is

[clayking]

All right.
Thank you for telling me.
Is this one of those situations you wish to be alone or..?

[fireshow]

yeah
just gonna stay in my room

[clayking]

[ He's tempted to not leave it there but he knows John enough by now that some things weren't good to push him on. ]

All right. I'll place some food outside your door for you later.

[fireshow]

i just don't want to feel anymore
aside from whatever i have for you
i'm tired

[clayking]

Is this you asking me to take away your emotions again?

[fireshow]

no
i just miss being able to fuck
and not give a shit

[clayking]

Hm, the slutty old days?
What about your false prophet of a friend? Is he still around?

[fireshow]

i don't want to talk about him

[clayking]

...All right.

[fireshow]

i'm going to sleep
if you need to fuck anyone
do it quietly

[clayking]

Can't say I'm exactly in the mood but of course, John.
Sleep well.
I love you.

[fireshow]

[ ugh. ]

come lay with me

[clayking]

[ There's a bit of a yo-yo effect here, John but he wasn't going to complain too much as those flames appeared in John's room and just like that, Caliban was stepping out of him with a little furrowed brow. He was wearing his usual simple black silk shirt that was naturally open, and a pair of loose equally black silk pants. He seemed to have nailed that cult leader hippy look to a T in his time in the city.

He was just going to settle down on the bed and peer over at John. Not quite sure if he should speak with the mood the other was in. Those dark clouds forming in his mind. ]

[fireshow]

[ When he sees that familiar flame, he sits up in bed and waits for the demon to come closer like he knows he will. When he does - when he makes the bed creak a little with the way he sits down on it, John reaches out with a hand and wraps his fingers around Caliban's arm.

Tugging him in close, he rests his head against the demon's shoulder and sighs a little, eyes falling shut. ]

I'm sorry.

[clayking]

[ The demon moves pretty easily when the other tugged him forward and he easily found his place against the bed. His hand easily moves around the other as that head finds his shoulder. The blond demon just tilted his head down to watch John for a moment, that worried edge to his look not fading for the moment.

But he was just going to wave his fingers to make that room a little darker- letting the lights lower as he shook his head at those words.]

Hush. You have nothing to be sorry about.

[ It's not like he could always understand the ways of mortals but he was trying his best here. ]

Just rest, John.
