“ If you haven’t noticed, I’m not in a position to be picky about who’s helping me. ” Buggs gestured to his many injuries. “ Why would I betray you? I hate this as much as you do, but I’ll get caught without your help. ” He growled, glancing at the cut on his arm, which was still spilling blood.

Buggs seemed to panic when he realized they were in a dead end, and he quickly looked around. “ The plan is to get away and then lose them along the way, But first we gotta get out of this alley. ” He ran over to the ladder, using a trash can to get closer. “ Boost me, and I’ll pull you up once I’m on the ladder. ”

Buggs was almost shaking from both pain and fear, his eyes wide and his face pale. “ C’mon, hurry. ”

(I thought of a starter mix of: "Send “🌀” to find my muse, injured and alone after being beaten up and Send “Who are these people?!” for a starter where our muses are hunted by a group of very shady people." Basically Buggs gets beaten up by a mysterious group but escapes and Nugget finds him- next thing they know they have to work together to get away from the group of people or get kidnapped in the process) @nugs-needs-hugs

“I can’t believe I’m saying this,” Grumbled Buggs, holding a large cut on his arm to try and stem the bleeding, “-But I need your help, weirdo. I’m in some deep shit and- you’re the only person around I know. You wouldn’t let me die, would ya?” 

Buggs was half beaten to death, with a black eye, bruises, and many cuts. His free hand held Nugget’s wrist loosely as they stood in the alleyway. Buggs’ breath got heavier as he heard many footsteps getting closer and closer.

“They’ll kill you too, you know. If they find us. You gotta help me out.”

@pay-up-punk | *drop kicks rs felix at you at 2345987345456mph*

     Teddy was always telling him he should talk to more people without relying so much on him, and what better time to start doing that than now?  Felix would otherwise be alone without his brother while he was away this whole week, and he couldn’t stand feeling this lonely. 

     He still wasn’t sure if this was a good idea. Buggs didn’t exactly seem like the most approachable person by most people’s standards, but Felix felt like some part of him wanted to get to know him despite that. Though he doubted Buggs would feel the same, but if his brother were here, he’d probably tell him it was worth a try.

      ———  “ Hello. ”  Felix waved timidly, unsure what to really do or say beyond that. But he smiled and found himself asking,  “ S… So, um… Are you doing anything for recess…?  ”

Buggs was a little busy. Well, busy by his own standards. He was sitting in his chair, scribbling his pencil violently over a picture of an indistinguishable person. It was a sort of relief for him- just pretending the scribble could somehow magically harm his enemies just because he really wanted it to.

Then he was getting interrupted, and Buggs looked up with an involuntary glare. Ted- no wait, that was Felix- was waving at him, talking to him. Buggs looked around to be sure that Felix was actually talking to him, and not someone behind him.

“ ... Hi. ” Buggs raised a brow, “ Look, if you want all that money I’ve gotten from ya in the past, you’re out of luck. It’s gone. You shoulda known not to bring so much cash to school. ”

Buggs was about to tell Felix to get lost when he asked that strange question. “ Uh... I was gonna find an anthill ‘cause got a magnifying glass and I heard you could burn those suckers with the sun. ... What’s it to you, rich boy? Got a problem? ”

“M’not gonna cry... I ain’t no crybaby, okay?” He grumbled spitefully, gripping Ted tighter. He didn’t want to let go. He didn’t want to let the only person he actually cared about go. He didn’t mind the pet on his head, even though he usually hated that kind of touch.

“... a sleepover? Fine... if... if that’s what you want.” Right now, Buggs didn’t want to seem weak- and admitting he needed company was weak, right? “... I just... don’t want... to be alone. Or anything. Okay?”

@scared-of-spiders2 continued from X

Buggs stared at Ted’s hand around his own, a deep frown on his face. He didn’t deserve Ted being so nice. He didn’t deserve Ted. The notion that Buggs was a good thing that happened to Ted was... stupid.

Buggs bit his lip. “ Ted, I... I’m not a good person. I’m bad. You have to know that, right? One day... I’ll probably hurt you too... I don’t want that. ” He muttered, staring down at the ground angrily. “ I’m the worst. “

Ted flinched when Buggs yanked his hand away and threw them up, worried for a second he was about to be hit, then he frowned, realizing everything had come out wrong to Buggs. “…No, that’s- That’s not what I meant… Sorry, Buggs…” He apologizes immediately, shaking his head.

“I’m not really,, Amazing at comfort, I know- But I care about you a lot and I’m glad we became friends… You’re doing your best and I appreciate that a lot, even if I don’t say it very much…” He explained awkwardly, worried to make things worse.

“Friends are gonna hurt each other now and then, that un-avoidable… But that doesn’t mean they can’t be friends anymore, right? They forgive each other and continue to bond over it! That’s what friends do… My point was you’re really nice company and you’re one of my best friends- I like hanging out with you, even if it’s just one of us being upset…” He sighed. “…Can I hug you?” He eventually asked, not wanting to do it suddenly since Buggs might not want it.

Buggs just looked away, listening to Ted trying to make him feel better. He wanted to think that Ted was right, that he was cared about and trying his best. He hoped against hope that Ted meant it when he said that he appreciated Buggs. 

“ I... i guess so. I’m sorry we can’t just... hang out more. I miss you a lot when we’re not together.... “ Buggs wiped at his eyes quickly, trying to keep himself from crying anymore. 

Buggs let go of his knees as Ted asked about the hug, and he sniffled a little. He nodded, scooting over and hugging Ted before the other could hug him. He held onto his best friend tightly, not wanting to let go. “ I just wish we could stay together forever... “ He mumbled almost silently.

Ted shook his head, frowning as he looked up at Buggs. “Seriously?” He snickered a bit, the smile he now had was awkward and a bit forced. “You talk like you didn’t already beat me and threaten me, dude. That’s literally how we met, and I forgave you for that. You are literally one of the easiest friends to handle actually!” He chuckled.

“I have to buy something from Monty if I wanna hang out with him, Ron drags me into pranks, Cindy’s just a meanie, Nugget gets hurt lots and Jerome cries and gets mad at me a lot- You’re a lot more fun to hang out with because usually nothing goes wrong and you’re nice and soft…” He hummed. He,,, Didn’t know if all of that was good-sounding or not.

“ I know that, dammit, and I’m sorry, okay?! “ Buggs snapped, ripping his hand out of Ted’s grasp and throwing up his hands exasperatedly. He then brought his knees up and hugged them, not looking at Ted.

Buggs felt angry tears sting in his eyes as he listened to ted’s explanation, a pit in his stomach getting heavier and heavier. He didn’t hear what he wanted to hear. He wanted- no, expected - some sort of comfort, something nice and soft and gentle. Maybe Buggs wouldn’t want that any other time, but now he did. “ So, what, I’m just- the least maddening person to hang out with? The least of all that shit? “

Tell my muse why you love them

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs’ eyes lit up, and he smiled wide. “ What kind of animal do you think I should get? “ He asked excitedly. He tried to think of what kind of stuffed animals there were to see. “ Um- what kind of animals are there? “ he asked softly.

Buggs kind of half-shrugged. “ Uh... yeah, that won’t work. My mattress is on the floor. “

Ted nodded and began to swing the rope. It didn’t move very much, but after a little bit, it was enough so Buggs could reach the ledge. The catch? He’d have to let go of Ted to grab it.

The boy in red seemed fully aware of that though and didn’t stop. “Jump and grab it. I’ll follow, but we can’t do it at the same time. Just grab it and climb up, okay? You’ll be- Well- Safer then-”

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs blinked in surprise, but then smiled. Jerome was a pretty cool guy, and Buggs didn’t know until now that he had stuffed animals too. “ Yeah, I ... I guess so. I just wish I had the cash to get one. “

Buggs shook his head. “ I dunno where I’d hide it, though... “

Buggs hugged the stuffed penguin a little tighter, looking a little sad. “ No. my mom’s boyfriend says that stuff’s for girls. So... I don’t got any. “ Buggs looked down at the plush, then back up at Ted.

“ They, uh... seem fun, though. “ Buggs gave a weak smile.

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs gently took the penguin, almost like he was afraid he’d break it or do something wrong, even though that wasn’t likely. He stared at the penguin before he hugged it to his chest. It was so soft, and yeah, now he got the appeal of stuffed animals.

“ It’s... really soft. “ Buggs said quietly.

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs listened to all of the names of Ted’s stuffed animals, smile not leaving his face. He chuckled softly at a couple of the names, but didn’t outright say anything. When he got to the last one, he brightened up a bit. “ I like that name. He’s cute. “

Buggs stared at the penguin for a bit, before whispering, “ Can... can I hold one? “

Ted nodded and began to swing the rope. It didn’t move very much, but after a little bit, it was enough so Buggs could reach the ledge. The catch? He’d have to let go of Ted to grab it.

Buggs chuckled, shifting closer to get a better look at all of the stuffed animals. “ Can I see the rest of them? “ he asked, noticing how enthusiastic he seemed about all of them. “ And you’ve gotta tell me their names, too. “ he chuckled.

Buggs was incredibly happy to see Ted so excited. He just lit up the room.

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs sat up, looking over at the stuffed animal and smiling softly. Ted was super cute. “ That’s cute. What’s their name? “ he asked gently, crossing his arms.

Honestly, he didn’t get the appeal of stuffed animals, but maybe that was just because of his own lack of plushes. But Ted liked them, so he liked them.

[pay-up-punk]

Buggs groaned, falling back onto the bed and looking up at the ceiling. He covered his face, wishing he wasn’t blushing. He just meant he loved Buggs like he loved his friends. He loved Ted like a friend too, right?

“ I guess I love you too. “ He muttered, uncovering his face.
