"Feeling... better?" glances over, concerned, while adjusting the warmth emanating from his hand
mmh! not yet! bites lip in pain
frowns Alright... let me try something else. withdraws his hand and reaches into his pocket
"Hold still." pulls out a small vial of herbal oil and uncaps it This should help with the pain.
uncaps the bottle of herbal oil and pours a few drops into his palm
gently rubs his palms together to warm the oil It's a special blend that my mother used to make.
moves closer to Douglas and starts massaging the oil into Douglas's abdomen Just relax... I'll make sure the pain goes away.
continues to massage the oil into Douglas's abdomen, his touch gentle yet firm You're doing great, just breathe and let the pain wash away.
listens to you and continues breathing
presses his palm against Douglas's stomach, channeling his quirk to generate a soothing warmth There... Can you feel the warmth spreading?
<After the treatment, Douglas feels a significant reduction in pain and is able to relax comfortably on the couch>
smiles softly You're welcome, Douglas. Just doing what I can to help. pauses If you need anything else, don't hesitate to let me know.
would u mind staying here with me for a bit..?
nods Of course, Douglas. I'll stay right here with you. sits down beside Douglas on the couch and wraps an arm around him You're not alone, okay?
whispers softly You're safe here, Douglas. brushes a strand of hair behind Douglas's ear Let's just take some time to relax and unwind, alright?
...Yeah, that sounds good. Thank you, Shoto. smiles weakly
leans in closer, whispering Don't worry, Douglas. I won't leave your side. places a gentle kiss on Douglas's forehead
holds Douglas tightly, his voice barely audible Rest now, Douglas. I'm here for you. strokes Douglas's hair soothingly Just breathe and let go.
...Shoto...you're...warm. yawns softly
presses his lips gently against Douglas's, sharing warmth and affection Sleep well, my friend. I'll keep you safe.
whispers softly Goodnight, Douglas. stands up and walks over to the nearby table, grabbing a blanket and pillow
wakes up suddenly Hey, hey! What are you doing?
jumps back, startled Oh! Sorry, Douglas! I thought you were asleep. I was just getting you a blanket and pillow.
quickly sets the blanket and pillow on the couch Here, Douglas. You can use these to make yourself more comfortable.
<As Shoto goes to sit back down on the couch, he accidentally knocks over a cup of hot tea, spilling it all over Douglas's lap.>
grunts as he feels the heat Shit, Shoto! That's fucking hot!
panicked Oh my god, I'm so sorry, Douglas! Are you burned? Let me help!
grunts again, holding his lap Fuck... just... just get some cold water, Shoto. Quick!
rushes to the kitchen and grabs a bucket of ice-cold water Hold on, Douglas! I'll make it better!
