(yeah sure, np)

Alex awoke after a while, shifting and opening his eyes tiredly. He glanced over at the TV, which was still playing, then at Danny.

Danny has woken up just a few minutes ago, his brain still fuzzy and drowsy. The blanket had fallen away, and it really didn’t seem like Danny noticed.

Alex stretched sleepily, squirming up into a sitting position. He looked at Danny. "'lo." He mumbled tiredly.

Danny jumped, a small squeak of surprise escaping his throat. “Hey! You sleep fine?”

Alex nodded. "Yeah. You?" He asked, stretching. He picked up his glass from where he had set it earlier, taking a sip and clearing his throat.

“Pretty good, yeah.” Danny picked at his nails. “I’m gonna get s’more water, gimme a second.”

He nodded a little bit. "Mhm. Alright." He stretched, glancing over at the TV, which was still playing the show.

Danny stood up, scurrying off with his cup to the kitchen. He came back after a minute or so, taking his place right back on the couch. “I have a feelin’ we missed a lot.”

Alex let out a faint laugh. "Yeah, I think so too." he replied, pausing the episode and stretching again, leaning back and pressing his head into the couch for a moment.

“You doin’ okay?” Danny looked over, ruffling up his hair. He cracked his neck and knuckles, trying to shake off the last remaining bits of sleepiness and wake up his joints.

He nodded, looking over at Danny for a moment. "Yeah. Better…better than earlier, anyways." one hand brushed against the bruising on his throat, and he swallowed, eyes flicking away for a moment.

“That’s worth somethin’, at least. A little’s better than nothin’.” Danny yawned, his jaw popping. At the feeling he recoiled, massaging his jaw. “Anythin’ I can do to help out? Even if it’s just around the house, man, you got dishes or somethin’ that need to get washed?”

Alex shrugged his shoulders. "Yeah. And…no, not really. I think…I don't really have anything."

Danny nodded. “Alright, alright. If you think of anythin’, let me know, okay? I gotta step outside for a second, but I’ll be right back.”

He nodded back. "Mm. Alright." he replied. He exited the show, going back to the previous episode to watch what they had missed.

Danny leaned on the wall outside, staring at the passerby. Being inside was driving him nuts, to be honest. Danny never quite understood how people could be shut-ins, staying in a confined space forever.

Alex closed his eyes tiredly. To be honest…he would have liked to go on a walk, but he was sore, and tired, and he really didn't feel up to moving.

Danny crouched down, holding out his hand to give a stray dog walking past a pet or two. The animal, though, upon seeing Danny, hissed skittered away on its many legs. He stood back up.

(I’ve been listening to so much Welcome to Night Vale.. I feel like it’s coming through in this lmao)

Alex groaned, stretching again and standing up, shaking his legs out to stretch.

(haha oof)

Danny came back in after a few minutes, already feeling the heat of the Nevada sun. He tugged at his shirt collar as he sat back down.

Alex looked over, plopping back down and letting out a soft "oof" as he landed. "Hi."

“Hi.” Danny responded. “Sorry ‘bout that. Had to sit outside for a bit, get some fresh air.”
