*The nearest seat would be the couch. He sits down next to them, and starts giggling almost hysterically after a moment.*
“Yes, that might be wise. My dear janitor, if I may ask— what the 𝑓𝑢𝑐𝑘 was that?”

[ Sir Balderdash's mail has been dropped off by a cyberspider. Amongst the normal junk mail and letters is a flyer and coupon for New Threads, which is apparently a fabric shop. The flyer has a silly purple horse mascot wearing a polka-dotted blanket at the top.
The coupon reads "30% off your entire purchase; 50% when you bring a friend". Costuming and apparel fabric is on sale; they're having an excellent yarn sale as well.
The flyer is addressed to "ESC sub-basement resident", so it must have got mixed in on accident.]

*He dives off of TJ as they reach the center of the maze, opens the small metal container there, and plugs in a code. With the usual staticky feeling, a pink rip in space opens up. Then he makes a face and puts one more code in.*
“A gentleman never goes first, but we’re a bit short on time. In we go!”
*Grabbing TJ’s wrist, he pulls them through the portal. They emerge back in his living room, and the portal closes almost immediately behind them.*

“Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm….”
*He cranes his head around, then evidently catches a glimpse of something he recognizes.*
“Roughly at your 10 o’clock, and we’ve apparently been headed in about the right direction— should only take about five minutes or so at our current speed. It’s a bit hard to give directions from this position, though. One moment.”
*He tosses a smoke bomb towards the truck to hopefully obscure them for a moment, then wiggles around so he’s essentially clinging to TJ’s side like a koala.*
“Excellent, now I can look in both directions. Oh, turn right here!”

*The gun tumbles out of his hands on the landing, and he watches it mournfully as it disappears behind them.*
“Perfectly alright, these are extenuating circumstances. Speaking of which, I’m not convinced we’re losing them. Would you like to head straight for my portal? I’ll have to find a new location for them in the future, but it’s not too great a price to pay.”

*He glares back in the direction of the truck, then grins suddenly and starts pulling stuff out of his bag. Turns out that although he never participated in the ESC paintball tournament, he did take one of the guns.*
“Skating truly is one of the most useful modern modes of transportation. Excellent excercise, fast, low-cost, and you look good while doing it. Oh, here they come!”
*As the truck comes back into view he begins firing paintballs towards it (and specifically its windshield). His aim is slightly subpar due to being flopped over the back of someome speed skating through alleyways, but presumably something will hit eventually.*

*He shrugs.*
“If it doesn’t bother you, I may as well continue acting as your lookout. And as a ranged combatant, although I’m hesitant to do much with all these people around. Do you have any sense of where you’re headed?”

“Latin for home— they wanted me to call them something more deferential than ‘hey, you.’”
*He makes an oof noise as the air is forced out of him, then hugs them back and grins.*
“The future looks bright, I do believe. Goodnight, my heart.”
Since he’s the one who set up the portal, Balderdash obviously included an alert that would let him know when Dr Worm returned through it. Unfortunately, when said alarm goes off he’s in the middle of treating an entire group of interns who got drunk and decided to summon the Scissors God. After puzzle-piecing someone’s arm back together, he gets a minute free to send off messages to his phone.
The first is to Dr Worm, of course. “I’m so glad you’re home. Medbay is experiencing a crisis at þe moment but if you need me let me know and I will be þere. Oþerwise I shll see yiu in some number of hiurs. I love you.”
Then another to Rismus, significantly more rushed because someone just started screaming somewhere behind him. “James is backif you are not already wiþ þem. If you happen to check uiur phone before James please tkel þem j love þem,. Good luck”
———————————
The screaming turned out to be because one of the interns had been chosen as the new avatar of the Scissors God. Which resulted in a fresh batch of victims, and also a crazed teenager with scissors for a head running around that had to be contained somehow. Many hours later, after sewing on more severed limbs than he would have predicted seeing in his entire life, he stumbles his way to his rooms. He’s about to go through the portal when he realizes he’s still extremely covered in blood, and that probably won’t be a positive thing for Dr Worm to see at the moment. After a quick shower, and also briefly falling asleep in the shower, he finally makes it through to Dr Worm’s rooms and starts looking for them.
((@exactinglywormish :) also @bitz-n-bytez although Rismus in no way has to appear in this one. He can be asleep (or whatever his equivalent is) or have left to go somewhere. This is mostly just cause he’s mentioned.))

*He’s managed to wake back up while they were gone, so he puts his arm around their waist to subtly take some of their weight as the walk through the portal.*
“I love you as well. Now. Hmm. Domus, would you mind terribly if I asked you to bring us to bed? My love has been injured.”
*A grumbling noise comes from somewhere. Balderdash sighs and pulls out a pearl necklace from his bag, which he tosses onto the floor. The floor appears to swallow it. Then, with another grumbling noise, it starts to shift sideways— like one of those moving walkways in airports, but it’s the whole floor shifting around. Balderdash and Dr Worm are deposited in his bedroom area after a moment, and the floor shudders to a halt.*
“Thank you kindly. If anyone you don’t recognize enters while we sleep, you have full permission to eat them.”
*With that, he flops down onto the bed and looks up at Dr Worm expectantly.*

*He blinks one eye, then the other, then pushes away from them and stares blankly for a moment. He took his sunglasses off when they started cuddling, so it’s very clear that he’s struggling to activate his brain.*
“…That wasn’t very clear, was it? I meant…” *another slow blink* “my rooms will eat bad intruders. Not you. And then… if we go there, they can’t get you. Or me. So you can sleep as well.”

“I love you too. I’m so glad you’re home.”
*He kisses the top of their head again in return, then sighs happily and finally completely relaxes. If left to cuddle with nothing else happening, he starts dozing off after about ten minutes.*

*He cups their face in his hands. There’s still a slight bit of worry in his eyes, but the main emotions are relief and pure adoration. He moves in slowly, giving them time to back out, then presses a lingering kiss to their lips.*

*His eyebrow twitches slightly at the mention of Rismus, since he knows Rismus was certainly not doing work. But Dr Worm doesn’t really need to know that, so he stays quiet about it.*
*He tilts his head like a dog as he tries to process the second part, then shrugs.*
“Unless there are spikes in there that can cause me physical pain, I’m not too worried. I knew the old shape of your mouth by heart, so I’ll just have to put in the effort to learn this one just as thoroughly.”
*He winks. It’s somewhere between silly flirting and genuine flirting, but either way he clearly means it.*

“A truck at 8 o’clock, I believe. I’d appreciate if we could lose them before returning to my portal location, but if it’s unavoidable we can head straight there. In terms of how to lose them, I suggest winding alleyways or crowded urban centres, or both. Oh, or entering the sewers— I’m fairly sure those connect back to the ESC at some point, but there’s a fair chance of getting lost.”
*He watches the truck out of the corner of his eye for a moment, then adds:*
“Ah, and if holding me is slowing you down, you’re welcome to drop me.”

“Better now that you’re back. And that’s alright, there’s no need to sleep just yet. We can just stay like this.”

*He thinks for a moment.*
“Well, you don’t know what the numbers represent, so it can’t spoil the surprise. Certainly, then! I’m— ah, I’m glad if I look nice. I’m glad that you enjoy the less… exciting aspects of me as well.”
*He turns to kiss the top of their head, then continues.*
“I think it’s just my body wash, actually. I had a shower just before I came here. It’s a new type I’m trying… one of those ones with names that don’t actually mean much. I believe this one was ‘summer serenity’?”
