"Probably. Henderson was a bit cheap."
"Nnng-!" Eri whimpered, compulsively gripping Björn's hand.
"Sorry. Least he's dead now?"
"Mmhm."

Hellis gave a final grunt and a laugh of triumph as he thrust the screwdriver into the air, partially bent, but hey! The switch had flipped! He leaned down and pinched Eri on the shoulder, simultaneously asking, "You hungry?"
Björn pet Eri's hand. At least that fiasco was over. ...He hoped.

Eri pulled away from the pinch and gave a little yelp, leaning forward. "Oh, ********, hurts everywhere." She said, tears coming to her eyes. Combine healing burns, new growing skin, and not having eaten or slept properly for too long, and basically now her brain was understanding all the screaming that was being sent to it. Oops.
Song actually smiled. "That's understandable. It was much more unsettling when you didn't hurt everywhere."
"Yes. Hungry."

Hellis hurriedly retrieved his cookie and milk, offered them to her, and promptly closed her head.
Apparently, he had clammed up again as he reclaimed his perch in Björn's lap.
"It'll be okay. Pain is temporary."

Eri broke the cookie in half, setting half down on the table and eating the half in her hand. From there she rolled up her right sleeve and carefully pinched the bandaged arm. She jumped. And from there she just started prodding herself through the clothes before smiling up at them. "I feel hurts again!" She said, tears gone and cheerful.

Hellis simply looked down and plucked at the hem of his shirt, looking forlorn and guilty. Björn looked to Eri, shook his head, and held a finger to his lips. Announcing you hurt to someone with all the empathy of a puppy who had just fixed you? Not a good thing.

Crinkling her eyebrows, Eri slowly lifted her flesh hand up to her mouth and nibbled at a knuckle with a somewhat concerned look on her face. Apparently wanting to test just what the chair could stand, she rested her weight on Björn and hugged Hellis. "I like being not broken. Thank you so much, Hellis." Even if she was hungry as hell and just about as painful from what she'd put her body through recently.

Hellis smiled slightly and nuzzled Eri's shoulder lightly...and the chair creaked.
"Carefuuuul..."
Hellis turned than and tugged at Björn's hair once. Twice. Three times. Apparently this somehow held some kind of message.
"Oh. Uh. Sure. Okay. Hellis wants to know if you want dinner."
Another tug.
"With us," Björn specified as he went about undoing, quickly catching, and then retying his hair.

"Yes. That would be lovely." Eri nodded, then looked up to Song, who raised an eyebrow.
"What're you looking at me for?" Song snorted.
Eri shrugged. "Dunno."
"Good lord, girl. You can be with your friends. Why the hell would I care? They're why you're still alive and you." He stood and patted her head in what he supposed was a nice way. Since it was touching initiated by someone who was normally a cold b*****d, Eri beamed.
"I'm me." She smiled and gave Hellis another little cuddle. Eee. Cuddly.

Hellis smiled and wrapped an arm around Eri, grabbing at Song with the other.
"Apparently you're invited too?" Björn half-asked, eyebrow raised. Hellis nodded and pulled Eri closer. He liked them. Both of them.

Song blinked, somewhat surprised and alarmed. And there was no way he could possibly refuse without insulting the little one. "Uh... Thank you?"
Eri giggled. Song was being forced to be sociable. It was funny. But, however, there was something even more important: She was being hugged close. Looking up at Hellis, she beamed. "Tighter?" She asked, blinking somewhat shyly.

Björn blinked down at Eri and swallowed hard. My my, that brought back some interesting memories. He quickly turned back to Song.
"Sorry. Once he likes you, he's hard to get rid of."
Hellis stuck his tongue out at both of the men and let go of Song, hugging Eri as hard as he could.

Looking relieved at his release Song carefully stepped back, hopefully out of arm reach of the little one. "Like her, then." He snorted, straightening his jacket.
The 'her' being spoke of didn't reply or care. Eri gave a happy little: "Eeeee!" at the hard hug, snuzzling his chest.

"Yeah," Björn nodded, looking back down to Eri, "Like her. Except he...talks less. A lot less."
