If the Wall Did Not Exist 1x1 with Dragon and Alpha

[Alpha*]

He shakes his head in denial at the request. He can't sleep! The creature lays back on the couch, on his side, and pulls the blanket up over his shoulders, up to his throat - covering the healing wounds and ancient scars. But the warmth is lulling him, easing his aches and concerns.

Stay. is thought after a few minutes have passed, Stay. Please. because this is his friend, and he cannot stand to be alone. Because then the fear would come back and he just can't stand it. Don't go. He knows he can't handle it, and eyes flutter shut as he grimaces.

Fingers from one hand twine in wild, filthy hair, knotting; the other hand is too sore to grasp anything with and instead he hooks Bens' shirt with one crooked finger.

Would he even be a wolf? He'd be rageful should the pain be for nothing. He prefers changes and form taking out of love... not this... corruption, hate, grief, rage, ... pain. "Stay here. ... please? Until I fall asleep. "

[Dragon Happy]

Benjamin looked at him and nodded " I will not leave you, I promise " he said soflty. Looking down at the other and offering him some water

[Alpha*]

A nearly imperricable shake of his head to the offer of water. Instead, the creature scoots over, making room. Rith sighs, a heavy sound of resignation; "full moon tonight, you'll change again. But if you are in contact with me... this time I'll not have you do anything. "

He blinks at the fear again, "sleep. You will need your astrength for the Changes." Is cautioned sleepily. "I'll work on. ..a bond... stay so I can in contact with you. "

[Dragon Happy]

Benjamin looked at him and nodded as he sits. Looking at him sighting solfty at the damage he had done. He gently put his hand on the others hand and holds it gently

[Alpha*]

He's just so tired. Rith drifts off to sleep with a single humm. When he dreams he shields his mind from Bens... to hide the nightmares.


It's a few hours later, mid afternoon when he stirs; and happily notes that he isn't alone. That hand is still in his. "Oh.." is murmmered gently.

Expiramentally he moves his muscles - starting at his head down to his toes. Wait. He can feel them. It's like pins and needles, numbness like thawing out. But it's there. Giddyness pulls a gleeful laugh from him; if he was in pain he could walk. Even if said pain lasts his whole life.

Prospects better he settles himself to wait, considering the water glass a moment and it's ring of perspiration. He then focuses on making a Bond. "I need to be Her. But how? I can't Change." He thinks after trying That to no anvail.

"Ben?"

[Dragon Happy]

Ben was resting his eyes when he heard the other " yes? " he asked solfty. Gently moving a bit so he could look at the others face

[Alpha*]

"I'm afraid. "

The words slip out before he can stop them, a shutter runs through him. "I can't do that again. I can't feel my feet. I cant." Rith begins to cry, a shadow now of the strong creature he was just over a day before. "I can't be my selves. I'm stuck. I'm so scared. Help me please, make me not be afraid. "

He doesn't mean too. Doesn't mean to let the other in like that. Rith knows he's powerless and that he's crumpled, like a used ball of tissue. Because, he can't do it. He knows without a shadow of a doubt that he won't survive another go, but better him than someone Ben would really regret.

[Dragon Happy]

Benjamin frowned and hugge dhim " I-It'll be ok " he said trying to be calm. He really didn't know what to do, he didn't know how to make the other feel better. But he was gonna try

[Alpha*]

His face buried in the others chest he sobs until he's cried himself out, and the shirt is wet. Fingers clench around the material, one arm slung around his friends neck.

Finally, he sniffles, "I'm sorry... i.. I didn't mean to... break down on you." Cheeks are pink and he can't meet the gaze, neither does he let go. Tears threaten to restart at any chance.

"I.. was thinking. ... I could. .. take over your mind... while you are that beasty." But he hiccups, hides his face again, trying to maintain control, almost breaking again, a shutter runs through him, like a sob.

[Dragon Happy]

Benjamin looked at him and smield " it's alright, you can cry on me anytime " he said soflty. Nodding " but why couldn't you last time? " he asked out of curiosity
