@bookwormscififan's other prompt;

Mad being overwhelmed/overstimulated and Mare comforting him.

----------

The Big Ego Family Dinner happened about once a month. It was a good excuse to get everyone together to catch up, and usually, Mad enjoyed it. He liked seeing the others and watching them all interact. It was just a fun and interesting evening. 

But sometimes, it got to be too much.

Mad stood toward the edge of the large lobby of the Iplier Manor, everyone’s voices becoming an odd buzzing as a pressure built behind his eyes. It was a strange feeling. Almost dizzying if he had to give a word for it. Breathing was becoming manual, each inhale and exhale deliberate, and he couldn’t tell if he wanted to cry or not. 

“Mad?” Mare’s voice wasn’t heard at first, still a part of the background buzzing as Mad clenched and relaxed his hands. “Starlight?” The pet name did manage to break through, and Mad turned his head.

“Sorry,” Mad said after clearing his throat. “I-um-I was…uh…” He closed his eyes hard as he tried to get his brain and mouth to work together to form words, but it was becoming almost painful to think. 

“Can you take my hand and come with me?” Mare brushed his hand against Mad’s, and he didn’t hesitate to take it. Having his eyes closed felt a little better, and despite feeling ridiculous about it, Mad kept them closed as he let Mare walk him away. “I got him.” 

“Just text if you need anything.” Anti’s voice told Mad he had given Mare the look. It was the look he got when he was worried but didn't want to draw too much attention to it. 

Mad hated being singled out like this. Sticking out for a negative reason that he had no control over. He knew that none of the others cared and that most of them could have these moments themselves. Mad’s even helped them during their time, but his brain had a habit of twisting things when it was himself.

“You can open your eyes if you want,” Mare said after the clicking of a door. 

“I’m sorry.” Mad softly said, finding himself in one of the spare rooms. The lights were off, making the space dimly lit only by the sun peeking through the closed blinds. 

“You don’t need to apologize.” Mare guided Mad to sit on the edge of the bed with him. The quiet of the room was calming and helped relieve a lot of that pressure. 

“I know…habit.” Mad sighed and rubbed his temples. 

“Do you want to lie down?” Mare offered. 

“Yeah. That sounds nice.” Mad kicked his shoes off. Mare stood up to give Mad room on the bed.

“Want me to-”

“Stay.” Mad didn’t let him finish and tugged on his shirt, getting Mare to chuckle. 

“Yes, sir.” Mare took his shoes off as well and joined Mad in the bed. He laid on his back and smiled as Mad plopped himself on top of his chest. 

“Comfy,” Mad mumbled and closed his eyes again. 

“I’ve been called that a few times.” Mare joked and ran his fingers through Mad’s hair, watching how he melted from the touch. He took his phone out with his other hand, turning down the brightness and making sure the sound was off before he opened an app to mess with, playing with Mad’s hair as he scrolled and tapped.

Mad wasn’t sure if he would fall asleep or not. They had eaten earlier, so there was no worry of causing others to wait. Phantom would take Blank home if they wanted to leave before they came back out, and with this being a spare room, no one would need to be in there, meaning they could stay in there as long as they wanted.

Mad did enjoy his alone time with Mare just as much as seeing the others.
