@Wreckk1ng "Yeah." Nice shudders but smiles, gripping Wreck's hand a little tighter. "And don't worry, I was. He was really cute."
He kisses Wreck on the cheek again before scooping up the two nuis in his free hand. "Let's go rest now, shall we?"
[Nicecream AU event Closing RP @Wreckk1ng]
On a night a few weeks after, a shooting star arcs across the sky in X City. A little nui, all bundled up in a hand-crocheted blanket, stares up at the sky, lying on a bench next to Wreck.
He lets out a squeak before he stops moving.
@Wreckk1ng "Thank you." Nice breathes, before planting a kiss on Wreck's cheek. "The Wreck nui was... endearing, in his own way. He helped me fight a couple of bad people in the shop..."
He places the nuis in Wreck's palms before he sighs and hugs him. "Let's go and rest. Hopefully-
@Wreckk1ng "Oh." Nice looks down at the two nuis in his palms, pressed together like they never want to let go. A small smile appears on his face. "I suppose the choice has been made for us, then. Shared custody? At your place, of course."
@Wreckk1ng "Everyone." Nice says darkly, like a war veteran. "Don't ask. It was cursed."
He twists around to look at the empty space behind him where the portal was. "It doesn't look like they'll- be able to go home..."
@Wreckk1ng "Yeah. He was really cute... really worried about his Nice, too." Nice's face twists a little, as if remembering a slightly unpleasant memory. "There were plushie versions of everyone."
@Wreckk1ng Upon closer inspection, there's now a little Velcro patch on both their blankets that definitely wasn't there before, holding them securely to each other, as if- they're refusing to let go of their friend now that they've found each other again.
@Wreckk1ng "They didn't... die, right?" Nice's eyes furrow. He presses the Wreck icecream nui to the Nice one. Nothing happens, the two nuis remaining still like ordinary toys. But when Nice tries to pull the Wreck nui away, it doesn't budge.
"Huh?"
@Wreckk1ng A little Wreckcream nui lies there, wrapped up in a little seemingly chocolate-flavoured ice cream blanket of his own.
"He wanted to come with me? He said there was a nui that went missing around the same time I appeared in the other uni- Hold on. He's not moving anymore..."
@Wreckk1ng "...Sorry," Nice whispers. It's not like he ever has a choice in these, but still... "I'll request some time off after this, if Miss J approves it. That reminds me-"
He pulls back and loosens his grip on what's in his palms.
@Wreckk1ng Nice winces, attempting to stand up before he hugs Wreck back. "Sorry for suddenly disappearing again," he whispers before he pulls back, dusting himself off. There are bits of synthetic stuffing still stuck in his hair. "How long was I gone this time?"
He sits up in the stuffing, bits of white fluff still clinging to his hair, yelling "Hey- wait!" But it's too late.
Before anyone can react, the portal closes in front of them with a whoosh.
At the same time, a glowing blue portal opens in front of the both of them. A horde of synthetic plush stuffing pours out of it before a very human and not-nui Nice flings himself out of the portal, letting out an indignant noise as he lands in the pile, wearing his hero costume.
