( mystery's voice is like a beacon in all of the chaos.
having fallen through the window, he'd barely gotten back on his feet, every part of his body singing out in agony. but it lessens somewhat hearing mystery's voice, vision blurring just slightly as he staggers towards the front of the apartment and hoping that it isn't some twisted form of punishment. maybe his brain melted. maybe it's on fire like the rest of him.
but no. mystery's there.
he's right there. )
You're here, ( he repeats, reaching out to touch him. to steady them both. ) Let me see.
( he'd smelled the blood before noticing it, but now, it's so much more important than anything he's experiencing. not that he's an expert caretaker; they'd never really worried about things like this before. yet, it's not going away on its own, and baby pushes mystery's hair out of his face, inspecting him with wide, too wild eyes in an attempt to process what's happening and what the extent of mystery's injuries are. )
Do you know what's going on? ( he asks it to distract him, pulling on him gently so they can go into the kitchen. )
