[ 1x1 with BrokenEcho ]

[rentropy]

"why don't you go to sleep?"

[~BrokenEcho~]

zel was about to protest but she yawned and hen sighed in defeat. "yeah... you're probably right."

[rentropy]

bucky smiled a little and stood up slowly, "I'll leave you to it, then."

[~BrokenEcho~]

zel smiled before crawling under the blankets of her bed and closed her eyes.

[rentropy]

bucky left the room quietly

[~BrokenEcho~]

zel fell asleep almost as soon as he left cuddling the pillow that was on the other side of the bed.

[rentropy]

(what should we do now?)

[~BrokenEcho~]

(we could time skip to the next day if you'd like, or bucky can have a nightmare and zelda could comfort him? I dunno))

[rentropy]

(bucky nightmare sounds good. I'll go ahead and start that)

bucky didn't have a lot of nightmares anymore. or maybe he did and he just had them so often he never noticed. if that was the case, he had no idea what made him notice this one. it didn't seem like there was anything specifically horrible about it, just one of his memories. a memory from one of his many years in captivity. but something in this one caused him to wake up in a cold sweat, sitting straight up in his bed.

[~BrokenEcho~]

zel had woken up to bucky's moving. She pulled herself out of bed and wrapped her blanket around her shoulders like a cape before making her way into bucky's room where the door was cracked. "buck? are you alright?" she asked softly as she pushed the door open a little farther.
