William smiled and waved at Butcher before turning to Mike. He covered the end of the phone with his hand. "It's Sisky," he whispered. He took off his hand. "Tell him that everything that happened earlier is okay. He seemed kind of worried when he left," William said, biting his lip. "And we're with Butcher, but we'll be back soon."

Mikey led the way to the study, every scar showing up in the firelight.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 8:46 am

Mike silently studied Mikey's body, unsure whether the scars came from Ryland's previous attack or just very hard sex with Butcher. It was an awkward thing to ask so he remained silent. He sat down on a sofa, opening his arms to indicate that William could sit on his knees.

Butcher moved closer to Mikey, inspecting his body as a healer more than a lover now.

William walked over and sat on the guitarist's knees carefully. "Yeah, I'm fine. I just have some questions. We'll be back soon. Talk to you both later," he waited for the other line to hang up first.

Mikey settled down in a chair, crossing his legs. He tossed his braid back again. "So, what's up?" The fire crackled, sending a brief ray of light across his chest, lighting up the 'MINE' so crudely scrawled there.

Mike swallowed, trying not to stare at Mikey's chest and miserably failing. That has to be Ryland. "William felt dizzy," he simply said.

Butcher frowned darkly at the letters on Mikey's chest and ran his fingers over them, trying to accelerate the healing process of the scars so they would disappear faster. He knew Mikey wouldn't let him use the energy to work harder on them.

William put his phone away, biting his lip as he noticed the scars on Mikey's chest. Another thing Mikey and I have in common. Abuse and scars from Ryland. He frowned slightly at the thought.

Mikey slapped Butcher's hand away. "It won't work." He said shortly, a frown appearing on his face. "Dizzy..." He rubbed his newly beardless jaw. "What have you eaten slash done recently?"

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:03 am

"William won't eat," Mike answered for the boy.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:04 am

Butcher stuck his tongue out at Mikey, losing the angry look. "I can try."

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:05 am

William bit his lip. "I do too eat. We've just been really busy lately," he frowned.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:08 am

Mikey pushed Butcher's hands away, frowning absentmindedly. "Well, that's going to have an impact. Even pregnant women eat." he chewed his lip. "Have you ever had red vision?"

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:11 am

Mike had frowned at William's lie.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:13 am

Butcher absently tickled Nil's chest with his now free hand.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:15 am

William shook his head. "No, but even when I do eat," he turned around to look at Mike, and then turned again to face Mikey,"I still feel weak. Nothing really halps," he frowned.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:16 am

Mikey brightened up. "Boy, have I felt that." He looked relieved. "You should have told me before."

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:17 am

Mike bit his lip. "Then what's wrong?"

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:20 am

Butcher looked down and stopped tickling Nils when he stopped giggling and started making unappreciative sounds. "Sorry."

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:22 am

William stopped biting his lip and looked up at Mikey, hoping that it was something that could be fixed easily.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:22 am

"Blood." Mikey said simply. "You need fresh blood." He cackled quietly at the sounds Nils was making.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:24 am

Mike shuddered. "Lovely."

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:25 am

"Ow," Butcher flinched as he was smacked with the rattle he hadn't realized Nils had kept a grip on.

Subject: Re: Brighter than stars Sat Oct 06, 2007 9:28 am

William bit his lip again. "Really?" he asked with a sigh.
