"I don't think s-santa wanted us to fight, so I don't think so," Vien mumbled, propping his head up with his good arm as he turned to look at Beau again. "I caused all the fights, remember? It was m-my idea to get everyone mad."

"Still, this place just worries me a bit. Having different powers in the same building is bound to cause some problems," Beau answered in response as he glanced over at Vien for a few moments. Though, he was a little curious about what everyone else's powers were.

"Well, from the looks of it, I could control at l-least one of the other kids here," Vien said with a shrug. "Perks of selling your soul, I suppose," he continued

Beau opened his mouth to ask a question on Vien's comment, but closed it quickly, deciding not to press on. "Sadly, we don't know everyone else's powers. Hopefully, I can stand a chance against them if there's a fight," He answered, looking down at his hands for a few moments.

Vien frowned a little at the mention of Beau getting in a fight. Sure, the other boy could handle himself just fine, but something about Beau possibly getting hurt made something like protectiveness curl in his chest. "Don't worry, I'm s-sure you'll be fine," he eventually said

Beau nodded faintly as he shrugged and leaned against the bedpost behind him, tugging on the hem of his hoodie as he thought of what to say. After a few moments passed, Beau gave up on finding a question to ask and let the silence hang between them.

Vien winced a little as he moved, trying to get comfortable. He was a little tired after summoning Baal and giving him so much power while the creature had been in their world, and his eyes were beginning to get a bit heavy

"Do you want to sleep?" Beau asked softly as he glanced over at Vien, noticing how tired and drained he seemed. He was starting to wonder how the rest of the kids were doing since they had spent so much time in their own room.

"I always want to sleep," Vien mumbled. It was true, in a sense. He was always tired between the insomnia and energy drain from his abilities, but he tended to ignore his body's complaining

"Why don't you sleep right now, and I'll wake you up if anything happens?" Beau answered gently as he looked towards Vien, with a sympathetic look. He looked quite tired, and maybe if he got a little sleep he would feel better.

Vien made a noise that sounded like a hum of agreement before getting to his feet. He wandered back to his corner of the room, curling up against the wall as he pulled at his sweater in an attempt to make himself warmer

"You can use the blankets…or the bed too." Beau asked as he pushed himself up and sat in one of the old wooden chairs that was in the room. If Vien didn't take either, he would surely bring blankets and a pillow for him once he fell asleep.

Vien felt a small pang in his chest at Beau's words. Did Beau actually care enough to let him use the bed? He hadn't realized it, but he had somehow forced himself into the mindset that he didn't deserve…anything in this place, really. It was a simple thing he tended to do when around people, but he had gotten so used to it he didn't realize he did it anymore. "I'm fine," he simply mumbled, not wanting to test his limits

"Are you sure? You'd be much more comfortable, Vien." Beau answered gently as he nodded towards the bed. Sleeping on the floor against a wall wasn't exactly the most comfortable position ever, and he didn't want Vien waking up sore.

"No, I'm fine, the b-bed's yours," Vien insisted quietly, curling up a little tighter against the wall. He had his duffel bag as a pillow, and he thought that was as much as he needed

(Lmao, it was long.)

"Are you sure, Vien?" Beau asked gently as he nodded his head towards the bed, hoping that he would choose it. There was no point in him sitting on the ground when he could use something much more comfortable.
