Trace might have been amused by the thought of glowing viruses, but Havoc considered a different approach to the feedback. <<I knew it!>> he barked excitedly, <<It's just like the origin story of a superhero! They get into some radioactive material, or bitten by something radioactive, or alien...>> Huffing, he sat back with a bit of a pout, <<Man, you guys are lucky!>>
"I wouldn't exactly consider it luck myself," Trace snickered at the pup. Even less lucky considering the outlying consequences it seemed to be piling up on all of them... it was almost not worth the price. Then again, he probably wouldn't have made it that night if he hadn't found that star, so there was really no way to back up that statement with his own experiences. Things had to get better from here, right?
While Chayy had a point, that it would have been best if the man he had borrowed the book from wasn't angry at either of them about what happened, it didn't help solve the worst-case scenario. "Alright, whatever makes you most comfortable. I'm game," he conceded, "Don't be so worried, though. This sort of thing happens all the time, I bet. It'll be okay!" He really didn't like seeing Chayy so upset, especially over something he had no control over whatsoever!
And it wasn't the only instance that he thought that with, either. Injury wasn't anything that Trace was unfamiliar with, but when he had been the direct cause of it? He was shaken to the very core. What in the bloody blazes made him think anything in the area was even remotely dangerous? There was no reason for him to have overreacted that way, proximity to the bandage around his head or not! What would Chayy have even done, had he accidentally caught it anyway? He had never made a big deal out of it!
It wasn't until the burmy started apologizing for what had transpired that Trace finally found his voice, pulling the offered bandage back toward himself and proceeding to wrap the injury himself. His ears flattened, making sure the first aid was properly applied. "I'm so stupid..." he growled before his voice took on a softer tone, "This was not your fault. You did nothing wrong!" He couldn't even look Chayy in the face when he said it, but he didn't mean it any less because of it. How... how could he have done something so idiotic!?

Chayy was laughing at Havoc’s ranting going on he couldn’t help it! He’d picked up enough since meeting up with Trace and Arashi to know what in the world a superhero was, and how some of them had come to be. So it did amuse him to hear Havoc’s theories! “Only lucky thing about that light is it helped me heal up. So I’m glad I found it…or it found me. Whichever it was.”
“Okay Trace, I’ll stop worrying.” Or he’d try to anyhow. Worrying over what could happen wasn’t going to help him at all, and he was aware of that. It would just lead to other problems. Still he gave a smile to Trace as he did force himself to stop worrying over the problem. He’d just have to wait and see when he took the book to the man, that was all.
The growl from Trace actually made him flinch more than the Bite and he took a half a step back pulling his arm closer to himself with a frown. Trace was mad he could tell. But was Trace being honest as far as who’s fault it was? Chayy was pretty sure it was his fault at this point, especially when Trace wouldn’t look him in the eyes now.
He let his injury be wrapped up and gave a low sigh, head dropping as he stared at the ground unseeingly. It was blurry from the broken glasses and the tears in his eyes. This wasn’t how he wanted his day to end! “Thank you Trace.” His words were soft and he drew his arm back to himself…and turned to carefully move to the area he tended to settle in for sleep, only to kick a can and nearly trip…but he edged around it, head still down and shoulders slumped. This had been the worst day of his life so far.
