Derlik continued to hum, keeping his voice low and gentle. He hoped it would help Nik calm down, like it had Derlik long ago.

Nik eventually did start to calm down, relaxing faintly into the god's arms.

Derlik continued to hum as Nik calmed down, a hand gently going up to the human's head. He was glad, to see Nik doing better.

Nik kept slowly calming down, held in Derlik's arms.

"How are you doing?" Derlik finally asked, when it seemed Nik had calmed down enough

He shrugged faintly. "I don't know."

"Well… are you calmer?" Derlik asked instead.

"Yeah." he said softly.

"That's good, then." Derlik offered a weak smile. "Are you… okay, with this?" With the god holding Nik close.

Nik shrugged a little. "I…yeah…" he said quietly.

"Alright. Let me know if that changes and I'll let go, okay?" Derlik kept his arms around Nik for now, offering that comfort still.

"Okay." he replied, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.

Derlik leaned his head back on the boulder, keeping an eye on Nik.
He'd take this out on Arthur later.

He let out a slightly shaky breath, swallowing faintly.

Derlik was worried, for a moment, that holding Nik close would just make him upset again. Still, he didn't let go, his hand still resting on Nik's head.

Nik didn't want to move, needing this comfort from someone.

Derlik didn't move either, holding Nik to his chest. He was perfectly fine giving the comfort, his fingers beginning to gently play with Nik's hair. This calmed people down, right?

Nik let out another quiet breath, closing his eyes and leaning faintly into Derlik's hand.

(Might have to go soon, sorry)

(It's alright, I left something for you in the claimed chat >:) )

Derlik took this as a good sign, continuing the motion. He held Nik to himself, letting out a small sigh.

(D: I saw)

Nik kept his eyes closed, still leaning into Derlik's hand.

Derlik settled down slowly for the night, feeling himself slowly slipping in and out of conciousness.

Nik eventually fell asleep again, cuddled close to Derlik.

Derlik fell asleep as well, arms securely around Nik. In the morning, if Torin woke up first, there was no way he was getting out of Derlik's arms on his own.

(ashdgdg Nik, not Torin lol)

Nik stayed asleep, pressed close to Derlik.

(AHDJKDH)

Derlik let out a breath as he slept, his face pressing into Nik's hair.
