[yes it is definitely Oswald in that chair, and he is definitely very much asleep. He might be snoring quietly in a predictably incredibly nasal way.

That position can't be entirely comfortable, though.]

[Oswald is waking up on his own a bit, later, wincing and making a pained noise as his back and hip protest. He sucks in a breath, trying to straighten--and opening his eyes to find an empty bed. At which point, his pulse immediately skyrockets and he's very much awake, stumbling out of that chair--which then proves to be perhaps not his best idea, as his leg and hip protest mightily, almost sending him to the floor. Oswald flails with a yelp as he almost goes down, just barely catches himself on the arm of the chair before he hits the ground, grunting a bit with a wheeze as said arm digs into his stomach.

He coughs a couple times as he rights himself, gripping the chair for a moment, before starting to limp his way towards the door, dragging his leg behind him]


--Edward? [he might sound...a little panicked. A lot panicked. oops?]

[In the kitchen. It's fine. It's fine, he's in the kitchen. Oswald blows out a breath, slumping a bit against the doorframe]

Ah--yes. Of course. [everything is fine. He'll just...slowly make his way to the kitchen, moving to lean against the counter] Good morning.

No, it's fine. [the corner of his mouth curls, slightly] Sorry. I didn't mean to fall asleep there.

--right. Yes, of course. [he shifts a little from foot to foot, trying to ease the ache in his back.]

No, I was having trouble sleeping, that's all. [that's all]

[there's an attempt at a smile, but it's a bit wan] Yes, it seems I will.

[the expression on his face softens at that, just utterly betraying the fondness that steals over his features]

How are you feeling this morning?

[personal profile] agoodname 2019-07-24 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
...that's good. [it is. It's an improvement. But there's still the elephant in the room that needs to be brought up. But maybe not just yet. Maybe not until after breakfast. He does have the whole day at home]

You should ice your eye again, after breakfast.

[. . . . and yep there goes the pit of his stomach, just dropping like that. Oswald swallows, hard, fingers curling into the countertop. He doesn't really have a response to that]

[and Oswald shuffles forward a bit, coming closer so he can just...slip his arms around Edward's waist from behind, hugging him gently]

....I'm just glad you're alright.

[his arm tighten, just a fraction. It's an effort to keep from clinging tightly]

...I don't like the idea of you getting hurt, Edward.

[his voice is quiet, half-muffled by Edward's sleep shirt]

[Oswald can't help but swallow at that, hard. He wants to believe him. He does. But...there's still that niggling of down. Edward hadn't even known why it happened. He just...]

I was...I was thinking that, maybe, I should put you down as my emergency contact. Since, well.

Since my parents aren't, any more.
