Walking somewhat listlessly down the corridor he was still in his own little world. He looked a little dazed and he was really not paying any attention to where he was going, in all honesty he'd mostly forgotten anyway. His long white hair was tied back with a strip of leather, he'd been trying to sleep previously and that was one of the best ways to keep it out of his face, it was half braided, the tie from the other end had obviously been lost in his restless tossing and turning. All in all he was feeling okay, if a little dreamy... it was similar to how he'd felt afater managing to get stuck in the room filled with the glowing fungus a few weeks back.. that had been one weird trip, and for about three days after he'd felt like this... tired, a little dazed and really really floaty.

The necromancer paused in his half dressed state at the quite thuds coming down the corridor.. It was far too early for anyone else to be up yet, and he was still fairly proud that no one else in the household had the ability to rise before he did.. Well, aside Ariadne, but that went without saying. She could wil herself into doing anything! Even the drider was still asleep, he only knew that because he had had to bathe that morning with the damn thing snoring in the corner of the bathroom ceiling. At least it wasn't in his room again..
He shrugged his usual top on, the collar slightly wonky this morning as he made about fastening the straps down the front, as he pushed open the door to his chambers to be met with..
An incredibly dozey looking pyromaniac.
He sighed, "Oh Bel.. What happened this time..?" He started quietly, watching the delirious drow putter into yet another wall with a thud. At least he knoew what the noises were now.

Bel made some sleepy noises that were obviously an attempt to reply to the elder Drows questions, but he was so groggy at the moment that very little seemed to be working properly. He gave up walking and just stayed slumped against the wall, his face slightly smooshed against the cold rocky surface. He didn't seem to mind at all it had to be said however, he just liked the fact that he wasn't having to move.
Once one task had been stopped however it seemed possible to try another again,
"Som...ting was... banging.." he mumbled tiredly, his red eyes closing for a couple of seconds before blinking wearily open again,
"All over my room... no... sleep again..." he sighed and tried to push himself up a little once more to be able to turn to look at the other Drow, but it didn't seem to be happening. He really was tired bless him and the lack of sleep was showing through in his dramatic lack of energy.
"Must be.. real early if you're up Prau..." he mumbled quietly..

Prau honestly couldn't help smiling a little as his pulled his hair over his shoulder to tie it off into it's usual style with the same old strip of black fabric. It was an obnoxious thing to do really, to smile at the state of the younger quasi-member of the house but it couldn't really be helped. Bel had a tendency to just be so funny in a state of delirium, or more often he was very sweet. It was another sweet day, so it was more of a doting smile than anything else, but a smile none-the-less.
"Oh dear, Bel.. I'm sure that it wasn't the drider this time. He was with me for most of the night.." He started down the corridor to the sleepy pyromancer, and lifted a hand to very gently stroke the back of his head, the un-twining braid and all, "He's in the bathroom now, I'm pretty sure mother will shoe him eventually, I for one don't mind if he's stuck in there again.."
He continued to gently pet the other smaller sleepy drow. It really was unusual to see him quite this drained, it had the elder drow worrying a considerable amount about their youngest charge..
He flicked his hair over his shoulder, looking down at Bel again, "It is early, Bel.. Very early indeed! Ariadne should be about as well by now so I think it would be best if you stuck with me for now, hmm..? Keep you very much out of her way.. I still need to get a few things done in my chambers first, then I have to head over to the workshop.. That sound good..?"
He planted a hand on each of the pyromancers shoulders firmly, keeping him a little more upright than the wall was.. It would certainly be an idea to move him out of his mothers way.. Who knew what sort of mood she was in this morning.

Bel made a quiet noise in resoponce to Prau talking at him, it sounded like something in between acceptance and distress, really he didn't have much of a concept of what was going on. He was sleepy, very sleepy and the Drow he was standing near was rather warm, familiar and he knew him to be friendly... he liked Prau, Prau was always nice to him and let him hang around when he'd managed to annoy Arach more than usual.
"We can go..." he mumbled, hoping this was at least related to something or other that he'd been asked or told or something, he wasn't entirely sure as it was hard to make his mind remember things that he'd been told just now, it was just all a comfortable mumbled from a voice that he knew he could trust not to try and kill him while he slept, and that was a nice, if slightly rare thing between Drow.
He did honestly try to make his legs walk with Prau steering him, but he still kept stumbling. This was probably the longest the young Drow had gone without sleep, certainly since he came to the Westdark.
"M'Sorry.." he mumbled quietly, trying to find the wall with his other hand to help keep him steady.

Prau arched an eyebrow slightly, the smile still just about clinging to the corners of his mouth at the mumbled jumble of words the younger male was uttering.
"Okay then, Bel.. Lets go.." He started off with him, walking to the side and slightly behind the pyromancer, attempting to steer him the short walk back to his dark chambers.. It wasn't really happening sadly and was looking to become quite a strain on the younger drow. He really did look tuckered out.
"Bel.. How long has it been this time..?" He asked him quietly, knowing full well that startling the younger drow could be quite a deadly thing to do while he was in this state, "It's more than last time, isn't it.." He continued, righting Bel as he tried again to make himself more familiar with the chilly dark floors.
It wasn't too much further to the door..
He stopped them again and stopped to carefully scoop up the young drow. It was going to wind up easier for him in the long run doing this, whether the other male liked it or not.
"There now.. That makes things a lot simpler doesn't it..?" He mused gently, carrying Bel to his door and then into his rooms, which were, blessedly, still wonderfully dark, not a single candle had been lit yet.
"And I'll bet that this feels a lot better.."
He made his way to his bed in the darkness, settling himself and the tired young creature on it, keeping him held upright across his legs.

Bel appreciated the fully dark room more than he could say, literally as words seemed to be totally failing him in his ridiculously tired state of mind. Being lifted had definitely made the trip, no matter how short, back to Prau's quarters a good deal easier on him as trying to snuggle up with the floor had started to seem, though still unpleasant, almost inevitable.
"S'been a while.." he said quietly, the question of how long it had been had actually been issued some while before he responded, but his mind was taking its time to catch up on everything at the moment, he didn't really mind either, it was easy enough for him to answer slowly, and Prau as far as Bel could see it had a remarkably nice temperament as far as Drow went. That was probably why he was as fond of G'eld brother as he was.
"I got busy... with... new spell.." he shifted slightly as Prau settled down, curling up slightly, tucking his knee's closer to himself as he settled his temple against Prau's neck a happy little mumble passing his lips as I did so..
"Thank you..." said quietly, one hand curling up to hold onto the necromancers large collar. A moment later saw the little fire mage fast asleep.

Prau arched both eyebrows and he tipped his head down to look at Bel,
"A while huh..? It must be a long time if you can't even tell me that precisely, Bel.." He shifted the younger drow in his arms against him for a moment to free up one of his arms after he had settled down, smiling as he felt his neck being snuggled against.
He heard the younger drows breathing even out as well as feeling it ghosting across his neck, but he kept talking quietly to him anyway. The number of times that Bel had taken naps on his workbenches and sometimes indeed on his newly created minions must have been an indication of how the boy sometimes needed a little background noise to help him settle.
"A new spell hmm..?" He continued, very quietly this time as he pressed a hand gently to Bel's back to stop him slipping down or off him, "That's often a good way to pre-occupy yourself isn't it.."
He reached sideways across the fur throws of his bed sheets to retrieve the sheets of parchment he had beens studying up until he had fallen asleep, his eyes scanning over the complex whorls and rune like markings. A new spell for strengthening his summons.. He was itching to try it out, but it was a very tricky one, he hated to admit it. It would be an idea to keep re-reading it until he understood it perfectly.. Even if it was pretty hard to see anything his room was so dark.
"It's okay Bel.. You know it is.. You're always welcome in with me." He murmured absently, giving the young drow's hair a gentle nose.

Bel was asleep for longer than he had thought he would be, he could tell that when he woke up because he actually felt good... still a little sleep fogged, but not tired at all.
He was arm, and he was comfy, but he didn't exactly know where he was. It was beautifully dark.. it really was, the air almost seemed like a sheet of dark velvet, and there wasn't a strange scuttling noise from the ceiling either.
So he was obviously not in his own room.. where else would he have been though? It didn't make a whole lot of sense.. he had to admit that one.
He wasn't the kind to just go to bed with someone else. So where was he..
With a slightly tired noise he pushed himself up, the warm fuzzy blanket he'd been sleeping under was still pulled up over his head, and his movement still looked rather dopey.
"Hello..?" he called out with a quiet still drowsy voice,
"Mm.. comfy bed.." he flopped down again, the fluffy cover still over his head a little.

Prau cracked an eye open as he felt and then heard his younger companion stirring beside him. He hadn't moved from the bed since he had settled the sleeping Bel down on it, tucking a large slate coloured fur over him to keep him nice and snug. He had looked disturbingly adorable curled up in the furs snuggling and on more than one occasion chewing gently on the pillows and other less furry covers adorning the youngest G'elds bed.
"Hmm..? Comfy, huh..?" He smiled gently, not sure if Bel could actually see him yet or not, he was having a little trouble himself though he could just about make out the younger drows form beside him.
"I trust you had a good sleep, yes?" He pressed a hand to Bels shoulder, sliding it up over the fur onto the side of his head, stroking him gently, "And I am glad you think it's a comfortable bed.. The goddess only knows how long it's taken me to make it more passable.." He chuckled softly, tucking the furs back around Bel, the stirring having bunched them up slightly strangely.
"Do you want to stay a little longer, Bel..?"

Bel made a slightly pleased noise as he realised where he was, his eyes were still a little blurry but if he really looked he could now make out most of his slightly older friends face... he liked how soft Prau's features were.. they always made him feel happy and safe.. it was soppy for a drow to want such things he knew, but he didn't honestly care, his weird temperament showed itself far more effectively in other ways, he figured he was allowed to like cuddles.
"Yeah.." he mumbled sleepily, a small smile tugging at his lips,
"Its comfy... good for getting sleep on.." He snuggled into the furs a little more, trying to migrate himself closer to Prau as he did so... he liked the warm, it was warm where he was originally from and he did miss that sometimes, but this was good.. this had warm and the possibility for cuddles, he liked cuddles... well, with some people anyway.. he didn't like it when Shi'n tried to hug him, that usually ended with some kind of pain..
"Stay..?" he asked, his voice still sleepy,
"Mm.. yes please, I don't wanna get up again yet.." he made a small sleepy noise and shifted to rub his hand over his eyes,
"Might sleep a little more.. dunno though..." he was a cute sleepy thing, making odd little noises in between attempts to rub the sleepy feelings away and words.

Prau couldn't help but smile all the more at his younger companions sleepy mumbling and clumsy little movements, it was just all too sweet.
"Ahh, alright then Bel! We can stay until you think you're up to tacking the workshop and the un-dead hoards that await you."
He teased him ever so gently, moving across the covers of his bed to be closer to the flailing drow. He assumed at least by the way Bel was fidgeting around that he wanted to be closer to him, and he was.. Quite flattered to say the least strangely.
He stroked the hand that was resting on the furs against Bel's head down to his shoulder then gently slipped the arm around the small drow, cuddling the younger male against himself as he only half propped himself up on one arm, resting against his numerous pillows to look down at him.
"You let me know if you need anything, hmm..?" He murmured down to him, giving him a gentle squeeze, "I want you in the best of health!"

Bel managed to settle again when he found himself cuddled a little closer to the older Drow, that was what he'd wanted..it was warm, and nice.. and warm. He really did like the warm..
"I'll tell you if I need anything Prau.." he mumbled, smooshing his face a little against the other Drow's chest, pressing his lips against it and shifting slightly as if for a moment he had debated gnawing it a little.
"I think I'll be okay now though.." he stated, I Like being cuddled up with you, its really comfy and nice and... you.." He smiled slightly vaguely to himself, his red eyes flickering open a for a moment to look up, through the dark at his companion.
"I'm already feeling a lot better, I never sleep that well when I'm in my room, even if the drider isn't on the ceiling." he snuggled a little more, his arm curling up and around Prau, seemingly he wanted to stay as clung as possible onto the other.
"I think you're my favourite Prau.." he stated, his voice still slightly sleepy.

Prau just smiled, in the privacy of his own room he felt quite at ease to be as soft as he wanted without having to bear the consequences.
"Well good, I'm relieved to hear that you're starting to feel better.. A well rested Bel is a happy Bel.. Which means that you're a safer Bel, right..?" He teased him ever so gently, making an amused if slightly worried nose at the teeth and the chewing motion against his chest, "Or maybe I should be letting you rest up that little bit more..?"
He smoothed his hands down over the slate furs, petting the younger drow, effectively as he looked down at him with a kinder look in his eyes. Sure Bel could be a bit crazy at times, but as far as Prau was concerned it was most likely the product of years of the youth being pestered, poked and would up. No smoke without fire, right..? Well, maybe that was a bad choice of words, but you get the idea..
"You're too sweet you know, Bel..?" He mused down at the little drow, "If that drider ever keeps you awake or someone else does, for that matter, you are more than welcome to come and stay in with me, okay?"

"You want to be careful what kind of offers you make or you might just have me in your room all the time..." he stated in a rather sleepy voice still, his eyes closed and his torso half flaked over Prau's chest still, rather more comfortable than he thought he would be at the sensation of being curled up with someone. He didn't usually tend to like being with people for that long.. . and spending the night with someone had honestly never crossed his mind as something he might think about doing at any point in his life...
"You're too sweet to me though, you know that? I'll never toughen up if you offer to help me out all the time..." red eyes fluttered open once again to flick up to the older Drow's face. "I do appreciate it though... you're the only person who doesn't just tell me I'm crazy whenever I say anything... despite the fact I spend most of my life sizzling your creations..." he chuckled quietly, flopping his head down again. "What sort of time do you think it is..? And... do you need any help with anything today?"
