He hadn't noticed her enter the room at first, his back had been to the door and she had opened it rather quietly. It was only when she had greeted him that he noticed her presence. He blinked, pausing his game and turning his head to face her "Oh. Hey. You're up. Is it morning already?" He asked at first, glancing to the clock just after she did. It was only 2am, his brows furrowed, She looked uncomfortable, not just physically this time. He was just about asked was she okay but she had already answered the question that was about to pop out of his mouth. Nightmares. He slowly lowered the games controller he was holding, with a slight frown, picking up the scared shake in her voice. "That's normally my department to deal with but since my abilities don't work on you I can't really take them away..." He answered his eyes drifting off for a moment as he mumbled a sorry, a bit annoyed that he couldn't help so simply. "Do you want to sit here until you feel better?" He asked as he moved over on the couch to make room. "I'm sure it's not comfortable for you to be standing like that... Or good for your injury for that matter" He added, incase she would say no. He sat on the edge of the couch, ready to get up and help her if she needed it.

Hello There - Ahh, General Kenobi
Diana was worried she wouldn't make from the fact she felt sleep deprived, she maybe got an hour of sleep from the nightmares, "C... Can you help me...?" She asked breathless as she felt herself slide down the wall slightly before she steadied herself with her only arm, she had forgot to put the other one on and wasn't about to go back for the thing, "I... I'm not doing so well... I don't think..." She said breathing heavily as she tried to keep herself standing.

He had stood up by the time she asked and swiftly made his way over, supporting her before she could slide down the wall completely. At this stage there wasn't much hesitation in his actions or movements, he had to do it a few times now after all, so he was already getting used to it and judging by how she had been acting he felt it was a given that she'd still need help. He walked her over to the couch helping her to sit down. Once he had done so he walked off to the kitchen to grab some water for her. Bringing it over, he sat down next to her and quietly handed it over. His expression looked worried as he watched her "Do you need to go back to the infirmary?" He asked eventually the same amount of worry that was shown in his expression was heard in his voice. "If you needed me for anything you should have just said instead of a straining yourself" he said, his voice growing quiet as he said this.

Diana quickly shook her head as she sunk into the couch some more, taking the water almost instantly, drinking it fully as well, "No... I'm just... exhausted... is all..." She said slowly as she handed the glass back to Elliot, "I've had... maybe 10 minutes of sleep... thanks to these damn nightmares..." She said again in slurred words her eyes drooping ever so often implying she was on the verge of sleep, the clothes she was in had been sweated up and stuck to her skin once again leaving nothing to the imagination but she could care less about how she looked from how tired she was, "I know... It's just... You've done so much for me already... I... Didn't want to annoy you anymore..." She said lowly in a more quiet tone, she had been able to muster up some energy to speak straight as well, "Do you mind... if I sleep out here..." She said slowly not waiting for a reply as she drooped off to sleep, her head slowly falling onto Elliot's shoulder as she immediately dropped off into a peaceful sleep, for now.

He exhaled softly at her answer "I-" he paused when he had looked at her before quickly averting his gaze away from her, maybe he should have given her a sweater instead... "I wouldn't be annoyed of you asked for me. I'd be more annoyed to see you in pain because I didn't bother helping while sitting here" he said just before she asked to sleep on the couch. Just before Elliot could reply she had dozed off onto his shoulder. He froze up, turning his head watching her for a moment his face burned red "...okay" he answered quietly before slowly relaxing. He didn't exactly want to move incase he woke her, after all she said she was exhausted and the sleep would hopefully help her condition. He just leaned back on the couch, just resting his eyes.

Diana had been able to stay asleep without anything happening for the past 10 minutes before she started moving slightly, "Please... no..." She said out into the dark room still asleep, "Please..." She said once again this time her face making a pained expression as sweat started building up on her forehead as her breathing began to quicken to the point it looked like she was running in her dream.
Her only good arm launched over to the metal socket on her left shoulder as she held onto her shoulder as her knuckles began turning white before tears began streaming down her cheeks as her heart was now beating a mile a minute, no doubt that Elliot could hear it from being so close.

Elliot had become surprisingly comfortable just laying back for those 10 or so minutes. His eyes blinking open when he heard Diana begin to sleep talk "Diana?" He asked quietly as he watched her move around, clearly uncomfortable. She was having another nightmare and oh how it frustrated him that he couldn't stop it. With her reactions to her nightmare becoming more severe he had even attempted to give it a try but it was no use, she was just totally unaffected. He could hear her breathing, her heartbeat going a mile a minute. she honestly sounded terrified and he wanted it to stop, he just wanted her to have peaceful sleep. He had turned his body ever so slightly to face her better calling her name a few more times, his eyes drifted towards her whitening knuckles. with a small sigh, he placed one of his hands over her free hand in an attempt to get her to loosen her grip. "I-It's okay. It's just a dream!" he called reassuringly whilst doing so.

Diana's breathing quickened before she felt a cool hand over hers, her breathing hitched before it began to slow down, her eyes opening slowly as fresh tears fell, she gave a quick look around as she looked at his hand over hers, her eyes drifting back to Elliot's face, "I-I'm sorry..." She said her memory drifting back to the dream as her hand tightened again before loosening, "Sorry..." She said as she lowered her head to look at her lap, "I-..." She began to speak but stopped not trusting she could speak straight from the way her voice wavered.
She slowly brought her hand of her metal socket and lowered it to her lap, making sure to keep Elliots hand on top of hers, "Bad dream... again..." She said her voice shaking slightly, "I don't think I've had this many in a long time..." She said lowly once again, pain laced into her words.

He felt a little bit relived when her breathing began slowing down, when she had woken up and looked at him, his face however still looked worried, not moving his hand the whole time...She was apologising? He shook his head furiously "Please don't apologise." He said with a slight sigh. "You have no reason to" he said quietly as she had lowered her hand to her lap. He listened to her continue to explain herself, frowning when she had said she was having more than usual "And thats nothing to be sorry for" he answered, sounding sure in his words. "You had a rough day, It's understandable that you'd have bad dreams. It's okay to be scared or freaked out or..." He paused for a moment before looking her straight in the eyes, without hesitation this time "or...look I don't know what I'm trying to say exactly or if it helps, I just..." He exhaled a little and gave her hand a gentle squeeze for a moment "Just don't be sorry, okay? I should be if anything, I don't know how to help despite wanting to..." He said the last part quietly as he broke his eye contact again.-------Diana Young-------

Diana still felt extremely guilty she was causing so much trouble even after he had explained she wasn't and that he thought he should feel more guilty than her, "I-I know you do... It's just the stuff that happened.. woke up some bad demons..." She said her voice still wavering as she slowly sunk back down onto the couch, she slowly moved her hand out from under his already missing the warmth given to it but she quickly wiped her face before she got more comfortable, realizing he had simply been sitting here not doing anything when she fell asleep on his shoulder, "Y-you can play the games if you want..." She said her voice cracking slightly as she got lower on the couch, realizing her face was hurting slightly from how she slept.
She quickly moved herself so she was facing Elliot before she let out a sigh lowering her face, "C-Can I lay in your lap..?" She asked as her face turned to an extreme red, her voice still wavering from her tear stained face, "I just don't want to keep sleeping if I have another nightmare... just... please wake me up if It starts again..." She said her voice wavering as she lowered herself onto his lap her arm wrapped over her chest as she laid facing the roof, her eyes closing slowly before she drifted off again.

He moved his hand off the rest of the way once he felt her pull her hand out, mumbling a sorry as he did so. He laughed softly when she did he could play his games "I didn't mind stopping, I was trying not wake you up by moving my shoulders..." He said with a nod. He stared right at her before his eyes darted off awkwardly when asked if she could sleep on his lap "Uhm..." He stammered a bit as she began to explain why before just going ahead and laying down there. "...Yeah. okay. I will" he said quietly before slowly lifting the controller for the games console. He watched Diana for a bit after she had dozed, once realising he was doing so he mentally scolded himself for seeming creepy and looked towards the TV instead. He went back to playing his game that was now muted, occasionally glancing to Diana to make sure she was okay.

Diana was soundly asleep for an extra three hours, which was a miracle by now. She slowly started to turn her body so her arm now lay hanging off the couch as a smile spread over her face, "Mum..." She whispered out lowly as her face turned from a smile to a distressed look, to a horrified look as her heart rate quickened even more sounding like drums, it slowly subsided and she went back to a blank face, her breathing was fast and uneven as her face twisted in pain her good arm once again launching to the socket of her other one, "Please.. stop..." She said in a pained tone, low sobs escaping her lips ever so often.
Her hand had loosened as it searched for something to pull on finding Elliot's shirt, pulling it into a clump in her hand as she turned onto her side facing Elliot.

Elliot had relaxed in his posture since Diana had first fallen asleep, his back sinking into the couch as he continued playing his game, though after three hours he was more just passing time until Diana woke up rather than focusing on gameplay, after all, he couldn't really move. His eyes moved down to view her sleeping as he had heard her mumble something. Watching quietly as he left the controller to one side. She was once again calling out in her sleep, having another nightmare. He supposed she had at least gotten a few hours without interruption, but her words troubled him. He couldn't even begin to imagine what she was reliving, it seemed awful and ye only clue he had was her missing arm which she kept grabbing for. He thought he should maybe ask her more about this, but would it be his place to know? Just as he was about to call her name and try to wake her like she had asked, she had grabbed onto his shirt and yanked it, causing her turn and him to sit up straighter and stare at her. He leaned in a little bit closer and gently placed his hand onto her shoulder, not wanting to touch her side incase he agitated her wound. The hand he place on her shoulder shook her gently trying to reassure her and wake her like he had done previously, she wanted him to wake her up and he didn't want her to have to endure the dream either so he continued to call her name until she woke up.

Diana woke up in a flash, her her arm launched towards Elliots neck, grabbing it in a hold as she sat up. Her eyes were a deep pure red with hints of blue circling around in her eye, calibrating before she blinked, her usual light blue teal returning as she pushed herself back falling off the couch landing on her behind as she quickly scurried back enough before she held her legs to her chest, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... I-I-I I didn't mean to..." She said through a muffled tone in between sobs, "I'm sorry..." She said once again before she simply just let the tears flow, her sobs the only noise that seemed to be in the room.

Elliot wasn't expecting her to wake up so quick, never mind lunging for him and putting his neck in a hold. With wide eyes and furrowed brows he stared right into her eyes, which were now colours he had never seen before. His hands had moved up to try remove her arm before she had done so herself, falling to the floor and backing herself against the wall. He sat there in slight shock for a bit, his hand moving to where her arm had been on his neck and rubbing his hand over it a bit. "I..." he frowned a little "I-It's okay..." His voice was low and quiet before he slowly lowered himself to the floor his hands raised defensively as he approached her, he stopped just Infront of her and sat "...you were scared. I get it." He said slowly, his hands slowly lowering now that he was Infront of her. "Do you...want to talk about it?" He paused for moment "Y-You're dream I mean..." He said thinking he should clarify what he meant. "It's okay if you don't want to. I'm not forcing you to" he quickly added after.

Diana sobbed a couple times before she let go of her legs, still holding her head down as she tried calming herself, eventually stopping the sobs, "I-It was a memory..." She said lowly, she didn't really know how to say, "Oh, well my arm was cut off at the age of 8 then put through torture then got my legs removed because I couldn't run fast enough," Diana kept her head down slightly as she wiped away her tears, "Just.. a very bad memory... How I got these..." She said as she very lazily pointed towards the socket of her arm, she lifted her head for a second, her eyes were a very deep shade of teal by this point, the small light teal bits spinning in a circle as they began calibrating her eyes.
She looked at Elliot before she looked quickly away towards the clock, it was now 5 A.M. by this point, the storm still raging on outside as she looked back at Elliot, guilt written all over her face as she lowered her head again, "I'm sorry...C-Can I just go back to sleep..." She said as she kept her head lowered, she honestly didn't want to talk, but being around someone allowed her to sleep longer than she thought she even could, "J-Just out here again... please..." She said as she kept her head lowered. As much as she didn't want to admit it at the time, it was a comfortable sleep on his lap.

He sat alone, on the large broken wall. He let Kanon do her thing, despite missing the warm fuzzies she had given him when they were together. All he was good for was fighting and well, some other unmentionable things. So it perplexed him why couldn't he help his gf. And why did he have the urge to stomp her brother. All he knew was, that he was lonely without her. The rain softly fell on the boy long from his time as he hung his head low.

(forgive me i forgotten where we left off here.)
Misafune was truly happy to be eating with Chiharu and Rini. Especially Rini. He was glad his date proposal was not rejected. It warmed his aching heart up. She deserved a nice date, if not more than the love he had for her and the want of a beautiful memory for her, for when he passed on. He smiled as he tasted the wonderful cooking she had done, and occasionally rubbed Chiharu's head.

Elliot remained silent as she explained what her dream was, his gaze softening as he frowned. He could tell that she didn't really want to talk too much about what happened and he was okay with that, he was just was offering incase talking about it would help. Hearing what the dream actually was made him almost angry? Upset maybe. He just couldn't fathom how a parent could ever even think of doing that to their own child, he had fallen silent for some time after hearing it, as if processing what she had said "...I-I'm sorry to hear that..." He said quietly, he wanted to cheer her up, give her a big hug, though he thought might have been awkward for her rather than calming... The thought of doing so in the first place confused him a little, he wouldn't normally think of hugging a person an option since he was uncomfortable with human contact, yet his brain seemed to have no hesitation in suggesting to hug this girl, something about her just... Seemed to be an exception... he'd sort that thought later. He also had to refrain from ranting about how wrong he found what her parents did to her. Diana didn't need that right now. He nodded when she asked could she go to sleep again, moving onto his feet and stepping closer to her to help her up. "Sure, I have no problem with that and you need the rest so..." He offered his arm out to her so she could have something to pull herself up with, ready to support her like before if she still needed it as he helped her back to the couch.

Diana gladly accepted the helping hand, well arm in this case as she was pulled to her feet, leaning into Elliot for support before they made the couch again, the drastic exertion of energy in that small amount of time caught her off guard, she felt like she was thrown into a blender than thrown out. Her face looked pained and tired the entire time before they both sat down again, Diana immediately went back to laying in Elliots lap before a small smile cracked, "Sorry... It's just comfy..." She said giving a small laugh to herself as she started drifting in and out of sleep, "I-I'm sorry for making you stop the game..." She said lowly as she started drifting back into the cold embrace of sleep, "If I start speaking in my sleep... Wake me up... Just say Rose... it should... work..." She said her voice wavering before she drifted back into the embrace of sleep, her head laying on one of Elliots legs and her back laying on the other one.

It was now late morning around 9 or 10 am. Elliot wasn't really keeping track of time. Luckily apart from a few mumbles, Diana seemed to actually sleep this time, much to his relief. He felt a little bad as he moved really slowly out of where he sat, replacing himself with a pillow so that Diana could still sleep, but at this stage he was sure she would be okay alone. He made his way to the kitchen and searched through the fridge for something suitable for breakfast. He was pretty hungry, hence why he moved off the couch and he was sure that Diana would be hungry when she woke up too. After searching he found bacon and some eggs. Deciding those would do fine he continued to pull out the pan to cook them in, trying to keep quiet but ending up rattling the other pots and pans that were in the cupboard in the process, visibly cringing "Shit" he mumbled under his breath before glancing at Diana briefly to see if it woke her up. With a small sigh he took whatever he needed over to the cooker and began to cook it in the frying pan, making enough for the both of them. Rather than the loud noise of pots and pans there was the quiet noise of the pan cooking their food and the smell of it too.

Diana shuffled slowly in her sleep at the new noise entering her ears, expecting to feel Elliots leg under her it was instead a soft pillow, to this her eyes shot open as she looked around tiredly to see Elliot cooking something, the time passed to at least 9:36 AM, which only made her have a small smile, she was able to sleep for longer than a couple of minutes.
She slowly but surely moved her legs so that she was in a sitting position as she let out a loud yawn, stretching as well with a sleepy face still on. Her hair was currently all over the place which she didn't notice yet, she gave a quick look over at Elliot as she let out another loud yawn, "So... what'cha cooking?" as she gave him a soft smile, her face turning into one that was fully awake as she absently played with the metallic socket of her arm, remembering all the terrible things that had to be done for it to even be here. A frown appeared on her face as she stared down at the socket before turning away and looking back at Elliot, giving a genuine smile. For only about a day she had known him she trusted him with her life.

He had noticed her stir in her sleep when he had turned back to check on her but didn't speak just yet incase she wanted to doze off again, he instead just went back to cooking. It was only when he had heard her speak that he turned around and looked at her properly, offering a smile back to her. He didn't mention he.r bed head, though he did obviously notice it just chuckling quietly to himself as he turned to tend to the food again "It's nothing fancy, it's just some bacon and egg." He said before glancing back at her quickly "If that's okay for you? I can see what else I have in my fridge if you want but I'm pretty sure this is the best I have right now" He admitted with a slight laugh as he had turned the pan off, the food was now ready. "Did you sleep okay?" He asked, a slight amount of concern laced into the tone of his voice as he began putting the food onto two plates. He deliberately chose okay over good for his question knowing that it probably wasn't the best.

Diana smiled lightly when he said bacon and eggs which she happily nodded, "Sounds great, haven't had them in a while," She said smiling before his next question came up, her eyes drifting down to her arm, "Other than the fact I don't think I'll forgot my demons anytime soon... I at least got roughly seven hours of sleep... So yes..." She said before she gave a light chuckle, her cheeks turning a bit pink, "And as creepy as it sounds your strangely very comfortable to sleep on," She said smiling the entire time.
She moved off the couch, taking a deep breathe before standing as she held onto the couch for support, moving slowly over to Elliot with a smile on her face, "Do you have any salt or pepper?" She asked turning her head slightly as she leaned against a wall, taking in deep breathes to calm the burning pain in her side. She gave a quick look outside to the storm raging on outside, "It's been 2 days... Has the storm even calmed down at all?" She asked looking to Elliot for an answer, her breathing still ragged.

He smiled softly in response "Well, I don't think anyone is expecting you to get over that kind of stuff that fast. That would be a big ask...I'm happy to hear you got at least some sleep, it really bummed me out that I couldn't help, I even tried a few times to use my powers but the really don't work on you at all." He said with a nod and a slight sigh as he lifted the Diana's food plate, pausing when she told him he was comfy, his own cheeks changed colour slightly before letting a small laugh "O-Oh. Well, glad I could help you sleep..." He said a bit awkwardly. Watching her move, be was going to help but she seemed to be getting on somewhat okay, at least for short distances. He wanted to give her at least a little bit of independence for walking the shorter distances. He went ahead and left Diana's food on the small dining table he had, pulling out a chair for her to sit before searching the cupboards for the salt and pepper. As she mentioned the storm, he pulled his head from behind the cupboards door and glanced out the window. "Yeah, I don't think so, it's a pretty bad one..." He commented as he pulled the salt and pepper from the cupboard, shutting it's doors slowly "I'm sure it'll let up soon." He said sounding slightly reassuring as he knew the storm freaked her out every time thunder was involved. He left the salt and pepper on the table before grabbing his own plate of food.
