. . . has anyone checked on Eagle in a while ?

( he tilted his head , a slight pang of concern hitting him . that's the two of them now after kicking him out , did anyone know how he was ? )

[ Knock knock, you can hear Bullet speaking from the other side of the door ]

Arrow . . . ?! You in 'ere ?

. . . I jus' wanna talk !! . . . please . . .

@thatsilverbullet

( the door is still shut , but he's shouting out from behind it , replying to bullet . )

what do you want ?

[green-0-arrow]

“the heart wants what it wants”? okay well the heart is fucking stupid can we let someone else have a turn? maybe the spleen wants to have a go?

[green-0-arrow]

( he stared at the floor , scratching aimlessly at his forearms as they spoke . he wanted to run up and hug bullet – something he hadn't done in a while . he just felt bad and wanted something to remind him of normality . but he couldn't do that . )

. . . probably nursing a hangover . He came in and explained himself , but I uhm . . . I made him leave .

( he glanced at bullet , biting down on his lip and shaking his head . )

I don't — of course , I don't hate you . And I doubt Eagle does either , you've both just — messed up badly .

( he wandered inside , sitting up on the armchair and sitting on his legs , wrapping his arms around himself . he honestly looked a little like those baby giraffes – limbs too long with nowhere to comfortably put them . the dog lay his legs across his thighs while arrow sat in silence , still not fully knowing what to say . )

( he wiped at his face with the back of his hand , hiccuping quietly and scratching coopers head. )

. . . come inside . its cold out here .

( he pressed his palms to his eyes , trying to stop himself from crying and failing . who knew a joke that silly could trigger that bad a reaction ? )

I don't even know — I don't know why my minds made such a massive deal out of this ? Like - you kissed , it's not like you did anything major , but I just – I went into some sort of shut down , and I don't understand why – ?

( his dog yapped at his skates as he dumped out , zoned out a little bit as he went on . he just felt incredibly out of it . )

( he rubbed at his eyes, a noticeable lack of green eyeshadow brushing off his face as he did. )

I'm — I don't know what I'm meant to say, Bullet ! " Yeah , it's no biggie , and I forgive you both ? "

It's not that — I know neither of ye meant it or intended for it to happen , but it still sucks , man ! You're my best mate , and this just . . . happened ?!

( there's no reply for a few minutes , then arrow slowly opens the door , peeping out at them . y'know . . . he's looked worse ? )

. . . it's fine . You were — drunk , or whatever .

( he doesn't really sound like it was fine . )

Right then .

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

. . . give me another hour .

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

I'm . . . I know .

. .

It doesn't change that feeling , though .

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

But this was the one thing I was afraid of !

( he turned over to face the ceiling , throwing his hands up in the air . )

The one thing that made me nervous in the relationship , that he'd eventually just give up and – even down to it being with Bullet ! I had that exact discussion with him before !

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

I already am miserable .

( face first in the pillow. he's going through it. )

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

No , I just — I don't know what I want . I just want to stay here in bed forever .

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

I don't wanna see either of them , Flash .

( guy who's been in bed since 6pm last night. ) what if i stay here a little longer.

[green-0-arrow]

Yeah . It really fucking is .
