Sniper wasn't the only one who got to be 'cute' and 'adorable' today in his darling little dog hoodie. As the man checked out his condition, Pyro had opened the door and slipped in wearing something with a Western flair and decided that keeping to scaring every RED or BLU that ever came to this world by not going in uniform everywhere was a good idea.

Tipping her hat, she smiled at him. "I see you woke up, finally. That's good. You know... I was worried for awhile. It didn't seem like you'd ever wake up, Mr. Hawk." Walking towards him in her cowboy boots, the woman held a large plate of bacon in both hands. "You lost a lot of blood. You're lucky that BLU helped you." Sitting down in the chair near the bed, she placed a hand into her jean coat and pulled out a fork. Moving it near the plate, she began stabbing pieces of artery clogging breakfast meat before bringing it near his face. "Eat."

Pyro, why must you be so freakishly adorable? hasstandards December 11 2011, 22:09:26 UTC
The multiple bandages and bruises could not hide the ire that appeared on Sniper's face as Pyro entered the room. She mentioned his injuries; she brought up BLU Sniper. Worst was that she'd dressed him in that number with the ears.

He hissed through his teeth, keeping them clamped shut as she shoved the fork near him. "You."

"That's right! It's me, sleepyhead. Did you sleep enough?" That hissing was something Pyro was quite used to from others and so she thought nothing of it.

"It's time to eat! Look, yum! It's everybody's most favorite food on the planet! Bacon. B-a-c-o-n. Ok? Now time to open up." Refusing to remove the fork from his face, she giggled. "Say ahhhh!"

Just like it's in his nature to lineface? hasstandards December 11 2011, 22:24:52 UTC
RED was unmoved by her insistence. "I'm not a child, I'm not 'ungry, and I don't need your help."

It was right after those words had escaped him that he realized he was very, very wrong about that. With only two fingers and no way to walk, he was in a state of complete and utter dependence like he'd never been in before. The realization colored his face with a quiet terror as his pride was battered again.

He turned his head from her. The temptation to test out the broken respawn system of Paradise was undeniable.

but that is cute too notintehkitchen December 11 2011, 22:29:56 UTC
"First, I guess you're older than me. Secondly, I don't believe you. Third, you look pathetic and you deserved what you got. Despite all that and the way you mistreat me I will look after you until you get well. Not only is it my duty as a comrade, it is common sense as a human being to care for those who are hurt. So excuse me and my human like qualities. You can pout all you want, but I'll always be here for you." Taking a strip of bacon off the plate, Pyro shoved it in her own mouth.

"Come on, it tastes good. Would I lie to you about the flavor of food? It's the one thing I know best besides fire."

Just don't tell him that. hasstandards December 11 2011, 22:36:56 UTC
His temper flared, his teeth remaining gritted together as he refused her offering. "Deserved what I got? What, you think I asked for this!?"

His body couldn't keep up with his irritation- as tension rose in him, his limbs stiffened, pushing an ache through every inch of him. Not dulled enough, either. He closed his eyes, shoving it down, trying to hide it from his face.

xD She will notintehkitchen December 11 2011, 22:42:10 UTC
"Here's a question for you Sniper. Have you listened to any my words of caution? Have you attempted to even be kind to someone else? It wouldn't hurt to try. You might find yourself in some place other than hospital if you did."

Getting up from the chair, she headed over towards to the other side with the bacon. "Now eat, please? OK, just a little?"

And he can't even run away from her when she does. XD hasstandards December 11 2011, 22:49:23 UTC
His continued refusal came in the form of more anger. He didn't turn from her, finally breaking the clenching of his jaw as he opened his mouth. "I got attacked by a bloody spook for refusing to hand over my weapons. This is not my fault."

Shes gonna nuzzle him :3 notintehkitchen December 11 2011, 22:50:39 UTC
"Eh!? You mean... a Spy?" There wasn't any Spies in Paradise that she knew of. What was Sniper talking about? He must of hit his head REALLY hard.

He closed his eyes for a moment, trying to remember. Though he wasn't sure he could ever forget that face, his mind was dragging with the medication they'd pumped into it.

"Bloke had a mask and everything," he said. His body ached again, injuries recalling the fight that had caused them. "Wasn't quite like a Spy's. Outfit was off. Snuck up on me like one, though."

"So there's a possibility it wasn't a Spy." Shrugging her shoulders, she looked at the wall absently as she became lost in thought. "I... I don't want to lose you too. I've lost... a lot of friends and comrades. You know, I lost... a comrade about two weeks back. I can't believe he's gone still. He didn't say anything to me, nothing seemed off. Everything felt normal and yet, he just disappeared without a trace."

Placing a hand over her face, she let out a whimper. "Engie... "

RED's irritation was met with a strange sympathy that crawled through him as he watched Pyro's expression fall. He recognized the look in an instant: loss, and the pain born from it. It was a face he never again wanted to wear himself.

"Ah, Truckie." Though he hadn't seen him in Paradise, she had said he was the same one they'd worked with at Sawmill. He held the honor of being one of the few teammates Sniper could stand for more than a few minutes at a time. And given how many times he'd seen Pyro standing near the dispenser with him, he was willing to bet they'd been close. "I'm, um. Hm."

It rang true with what he always said: attachment was dangerous. It made loss harder to accept, created a beast that couldn't be fought with weapons. "I never saw him here, but he wasn't a bad bloke back at the base."

"He was really nice. Engie always let me sleep in bed with him and he would never get angry at me no matter what I did." Placing her other hand over her face now, she began to sniffle. "He was the best, I love him so much. I never wanted to be away from him again." Love? Love? Did Pyro just say the L-word? That didn't seem like it was a proper emotion to have about your fellow comrade.

"Now it's just you, me and Sensei. I wonder if I'll end up here alone again like I have in the past. It seems I'm destined to stay here forever and never experience the beauty of another human being's flesh peeling away from their skin with my flames."

That sympathy gave way to an awkwardness Sniper couldn't manage in his mind, drug-addled or not. Okay, she'd been very close to Truckie, apparently. Much closer than professionals should have been, and certainly closer than was safe when in an occupation where one watched their teammates die on a daily basis.

This was different, though. It wasn't just the cheap death granted by the respawn- Engineer was gone without a trace. To have nothing left was all the more painful.

"Er. At least you've still got Medic." Or whatever strange nickname she was calling him. "And you were the one who was sayin' there might be a way to get back. Maybe he's just... you know. Gone back."

Sniper looked to the door, only to remember his leg was in a prop and he had no viable way out of the bed. Even if he could, the chances that she'd just catch up to his plodding pace in a cast were astronomical. He was trapped in the conversation, as well.

"Mhm. Yes, Sensei is here... that is true, but... " Drifting off, she became lost in what to say next about the two of them. The relationship between Medic and Pyro was one that neither of them had fully understood and it had been leaving the firestarter feeling awkward as of late whenever she was in his presence.

"Sniper?" Bringing her hands away from her face, one would find it hard to ignore the tears streaming down her cheeks. "... When you get better, won't you come back to my place? I want to make sure you're safe and nothing like this ever happens to you again." In all honesty, she felt as part of this was her fault. As an offense class, she should of been there to chase Sniper's attacker off. The bushman that rested on the hospital bed before her was not so good in close-up combat; to make up for that she was supposed to watch his back.

"I'm failing as a teammate, I don't want to anymore."

It had been some time since Sniper had seen someone crying out of genuine sadness; it was no easier at that moment than it had been years before. His back stiffened as his body went through the motions to cater to his habits, those little tics he had to counter situations like that. With only two fingers, he could hardly scratch his face; moving his arm to rub at his neck was equally ineffective with the bruising under his outfit ( ... )
