Necro decided two things, right then and there. One: He wasn't a big fan of the color red. Which was awkward, considering that there was red on his uniform... in more ways then one. And two? Celadonite was right. Being cold sucked. Necro had managed to drag himself up and over to the wall where he currently resided. He huffed quietly. A fine mess he'd gotten himself into. Another aura prickled on the edge of his senses and he sighed again. "I am no threat." He muttered out loud, as loud as he could be in his case.

Celadonite had smelled blood first of all, and then had felt the aura of a page and…with his insatiable curiosity, he made his way over.
But, the soft voice claiming that he wasn’t a threat made him pause.
…Celadonite knew that voice.
He teleported the last few feet, not even caring and hissed in disgust at the mess that the page had gotten himself into. “Wow. Seriously? What the hell did you do now, Necro? As if your bad fashion wasn’t bad enough you decided to try and dye your clothes while still wearing them?”
The joke fell rather flat, and the worry was clear in the Captains’ voice but for a moment he wasn’t sure what to do. “...What the hell happened? Who did this?” And could he help was the real question but…
He vaguely remembered the small object that had been given to him by the General who he couldn't quite remember who had been in the rift. A small bone and the whisper that it could save his life one day.
Well. It was worth a try.
“I’m not sure why you thought it was a good idea to move but…”
Moving closer to the Page he drew the bone out of his subspace pocket and snapped it an inch from the male’s face. “Breathe.”

Celadonite spoke and Necro sucked in a breathe, eyes burning as tears prickled at the corners of his eyes. "Cela..." He tried to laugh, though it came out more pained then anything else.
"Marialite." The Page sighed softly, trying to sit up straighter and failing. "She wanted to corrupt me. I very politely turned her down and uh.. Well, she wasn't happy with my answer. Made sure she got that point across..." Or two. Necro gave Cela a small lopsided smile. "I was trying to follow your instructions. Just think of all the hell you get to give me now for looking like this."
He let his head lul to the side as Celadonite pulled something out of his pocket, moving closer. "Would you have preferred to find me just laying on the ground?" Necro asked. "Or the fire escape? I'm... pretty sure I hit it on the way down." Necro made a face, but did as instructed without another word, breathing in the strange mist.
"...I'm sorry..." He said, after a couple moments. Necro wasn't entirely sure why he was apologizing, but he felt he needed to

Celadonite shook his head but looked annoyed, drawing the page into his lap as he sat beside him. “I mean. I’d rather you have just. Not moved. If you fell and hit things, what if you would have bled out when you moved? I’d much rather have found you hurt and bleeding than you know. Dead and no longer bleeding. Jesus Necro. You dumbass.”
It would have been said with affection if he wasn’t so worried, but regardless, he gently wrapped his knuckles against the Page’s forehead. “Why didn't you just run when faced with someone like that? Or why didn’t you just call for help? You keep saying how you have these great people who love you and all that jazz.”
He began to run his fingers through the male’s hair, working to get out what gravel that he could and tutting softly. “You need to go home and get food. If you were…I mean. If you and I were on the same side I would take you somewhere for something filled with sugar to try and combat that shock that you’re most likely going to fall into but. We’re not. So I can’t.”
It would be hard even if he was though. With Celadonite being what he was now.
Ah well. He still held no regrets.

"I was kinda afraid of being seen... I thought if I dragged myself to the side, I'd be hidden better. Kinda regret it honestly." Needless to say, he hurt in a few places he didn't know he had. "You're gonna get bloody..." He protested lightly when Cela dragged him into his lap, but did nothing to fight the hold on him.
"Thought running was the more dangerous option. You did say don't do anything stupid." Necro sighed, leaning against the other, grabbing ahold of the end of Cela's coat. "I don't want anyone getting hurt Scales.. And it's not like I had set out to get run through.."
Necro hummed softly. "I'll get something later... I don't want to go anywhere right now." He muttered. The Page fell silent for a bit, letting the Captain pick at his hair. "...Probably not the best thing to ask right now, all things considered but... I couldn't have stopped you from calling someone to turn me... Why didn't you?"

Celadonite snorted softly and shook his head. “I mean…if the Captain was that set on running you through I suppose running would have only triggered them to be worse, so. Yeah I guess you’re right.” He continued picking the gravel and bits of dirt from the long and messy mane, giving a soft grumble under his breath of how it still needed to be cut and what a useless dumbass Necro was but the question he was asked made him freeze and simply stare at the Page in utter confusion.
“...Wait. Seriously? Do you think I’d just. Take advantage of the fact you were bleeding out to just…bring you back into chaos? No man. If I’m going to do that it’ll be in a fair fight, not with me just finding you dying in front of me. Either we’ll fight and I’ll bring you in or you’ll just decide that you can’t ******** live without me and I’ll bring you in that way. Nothing too underhanded.”
He chewed his lip for a moment, his dark eyes looking thoughtfully at the male. “...That and I didn’t think about it, which doesn’t really say much for me, I suppose.”

The Page laughed quietly. "See? I tried. It wasn't a very good try, but I still tried in the end." Necro tilted his head slightly. "Would you be mad if I said yes and no? No, I don't think you'd take advantage of me like that. But, I don't know... maybe someone else? Who knows..." Necro ran a hand over one of the wounds that had now scarred over. "... Though, I guess maybe things would have been a bit different if you didn't have that bone." What if corruption had been the only way to keep him alive. What would Celadonite have done? What would he have done. He curled in on himself slightly.
He didn't want to think about the what if's
Necro snorted lightly. "Scales, I literally would not be alive if it weren't for you right now. I think we can both safely say we might be a bit past that part by now." The Page gave the Captain another grin. "I guess... to your credit, you were focused on other things at the moment. My hero~." He teased. "How can I ever repay you."
Maybe Celadonite was right. Maybe he was a little b***h.

He snorted and shrugged, looking at him for another moment before pressing a kiss to his forehead. “I think you should go home. I think you should go home, shower. Eat something with a lot of sugar. Drink a soda if you have one and just. Cuddle with the ones you love and all that jazz. It’ll be best for you right now. You need support and just because I’m your hero…”
Celadonite looked away for a moment. “There’s not much else I can or should do to help you right now. You’re not dead. Not dying, so…you should go home. Go home and get some rest and don’t deal with Captains alone from now on. Maybe patrol with someone. If I see you alone, obviously I won’t hurt you, but most of us would, I’m sure.”
He pushed Necro away from him and stood up, stretching and trying to look as though he didn’t really actually care about what was going on. “If I do see you again, I might not be so nice, so just remember that. Maybe I will just drag you back kicking and screaming. Who really knows. Tonight though. Tonight just go home, Necro.”
Turning away, the Captain teleported, wanting to get as far away from the Page as possible.
…Truthfully, Faustite would have a fit if he ever found out about this, so.
Obviously…he never would find out.
