[Only half-listening]
Right.
[Said as he shifts so that he can sit up and pats D.Va affectionately on the head.]
Can you hold him still for a little bit?

[ purrs. ]
[ and gets enough of that sentence to realize what it is she must do. springs up out of the blankets and scoops up king, restraining him a bit with her tentacles so intensity can bandage him up! ]
[ TEAMWORK! ]

[ BETRAYAL ]
Wh-- hey!
[ Once more he is all tangled up in tentacles ]
You could just ask me.

[ Once more he is all tangled up in tentacles ]

We could. But then this will help calm her down.
So be a good patient.
[He says as he cleans and wraps up King's shoulder so at the very least it won't get infected.]

[ ...she licks the back of king's head ♥. GOOD PATIENT. ]
[ looks over his shoulder to watch as intensity takes care of things. wow, this sure is interesting. she's getting some ideas. ]
[ looks over his shoulder to watch as intensity takes care of things. wow, this sure is interesting. she's getting some ideas. ]
[ WHY.
He makes a face, but holds still. The wound itself is three large gashes through his shoulder and chest, but aside from being particularly nasty, they won't appear to have hit anything important. ]
I said I would deal with this after she's taken care of.

She is taken care of.
She's not going anywhere. You're not going anywhere.
And the last thing she needs is to come to her senses with you battered and bloodied. She'll just run off again.
[The chest area is harder to treat, but Intensity will do what he can. Shoving tentacles out of the way so he can sterilize and bandage the worst of it.
And when that's done, with a gentle tap of his fingertips, King's clothes mend themselves so it doesn't even look like he was injured at all.]

[ ...!?!?!?!!?!?!?! ]
[ he can fix more than just wind chimes?! she looks at king's clothes, then to intensity, then to king's clothes, then to intensity, and then to the bush. intensity! hey, intensity, can you fix the bush?! ]
[ she sets king down and gives him another lick for being such a good patient and then she's grabbing the bush and shoving it at intensity. here! fix this next! ]

[ . . . Well, he can get on board with D.Va never knowing this happened.
He just scoots aside to give Intensity better access to the bush. ]

[Sorry, D.Va. He can't do anything about your present to King. Just sighs and pushes the bush over both of their heads into the blanket pile.
Starts explaining as if she would understand:]
It has to be inorganic or dead.
That---
[Points to the bush]
Qualifies as neither.
Maybe after it dries out completely.

[ bad king. bad.
no more hiding things. ]
[ she doesn't understand, but she kind of gets the gist from his pushing it aside and the expression he's got on his face. the bush is... going to remain in bad shape. she makes a low murmur in the back of her throat and flops down in the pile of blankets, using her hind legs to drive herself underneath some of the other pillows and mattresses and blankets. her tail remains out, as do some of her tentacles, which just flop about as she makes another depressed sound. ]
[ she hurt king and her present to king is ruined. ]

[ All this for a bush...
He pats the sad lump a few times, placatingly. ]
It's fine, like I said. Just relax.

[Flops down on his side of the nest, letting King handle D.Va for the moment.
Except.
Wait.
Pushes himself back up to go fetch the lamp and bring it into the room]

[ she's going to make an attempt to drag him under. it's nice and warm beneath all of the blankets and pillows, king! she's about to make a noise of protest when intensity leaves, but then she realizes he's going to grab the lamp. a please sound follows, and she sends several tentacles to cuddle him as soon as he takes his seat again. ]
[ ...tries to yank him over after a few seconds. ]
[ cuddles, plz&thx. ]
[ it's not hard to tell she's cold and, when she's not moving or shrieking like a lunatic, she's shivering. did she ever get around to telling either of you she's ectothermic, ..? oops. ]

[ it's not hard to tell she's cold and, when she's not moving or shrieking like a lunatic, she's shivering. did she ever get around to telling either of you she's ectothermic, ..? oops. ]
[ He's still very, deeply unsure about monster cuddles. Especially after an accidental slashing.
But... this is the only idea he has to hopefully turn her back to normal, so he goes with it easily. ]
You're still cold after all of that...? I told you not to go in the water.

[Intensity is doubly unsure about monster cuddles due to a re-occurring nightmare. And is about as relaxed as a taut bow string throughout the entire process. But whatever. It's not like he was planning on sleeping.
Nor is he defenseless in the waking world.
Added bonus, Intensity is already well acquainted with the fact that she's ectothermic thanks to that time she showed up at his office sans blood.]
It's not just that. It's also one of her corruptions.
[And he shifts until he is at least able to get his metal arm free, wrapping it in multiple layers of blankets before heating up the metal to probably a tad warmer than is comfortable for a human. He offers it to D.Va's tentacles. Hopefully they'll wrap around only that instead of cuddling him entirely.
Or at least he can try to bargain for it.]
Only the arm. Got it?

[ she makes a low rumbling sound in response. look, if she hadn't drank all of that liquor, then she might not have rushed straight into the ocean like an idiot. she does love the beach though, soooo maybe that's a lie. jury's out. ]
[ since intensity doesn't seem the least bit interested in cuddling she's going to drag king closer to him. maybe he won't notice how very obviously she keeps moving an inch or two, disrupting the entire pile of pillows and blankets. ]
[ she ignores the arm for now, far more interested in dragging the both of them in closely, and right now she's only successfully gotten half. ]

[ Frowning ]
... She never told me that.
[ But reaching out to carefully pat at her as she cuddles closer. He doesn't resist, since if he's cold -- sharing body heat was his main tactic to begin with. ]

[Just like you're never going to tell her about that shoulder injury - he doesn't say.
But since the two of them are now cuddling for warmth, that's the best possible outcome. And he drops his arm to throw more blankets over the both of them.]
This is probably about as calm as she is going to get.

This is probably about as calm as she is going to get.
[ not sharing shit is the circle of life in this trio, apparently. ]
[ can she sneakily drag intensity into the cuddling?
as sneaky as a horse sized monster thing can be anyway. ]
[ her ears flicker between the two of them, because she's learned that she is 'she', and that means they're referring to her. tries to mimic the sound and it probably sounds awful. ]

[ DON'T CALL HIM OUT IN YOUR NARRATION, SIR.
But for now, cuddling will continue until monster morale improves. ]

[Is morale improving?
As Intensity promised, she is allowed to have the one arm. Nothing else.]

[ monster morale's got nothing to do with it, but it's appreciate... probably. she starts warming up though, which is going to be a big help. ]
[ also if that's all she's getting then all four tentacles are going to cling to it. that arm belongs to her now. ]
[ also, idk, sometime later i sure hope you boys enjoy a dazed & confused naked d.va, tentacles still out. ]

[ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He hastily tries to unbury her from at least some of the cushions, to confirm she's back to normal. ]
D.Va!
