Playing with my food. (Horror sans X Reader)

Rest and Regeneration

Warnings: Blood and injury, as well as suggestive joking. 

—Your POV—

"Right. Can someone please explain what's going on." 

Reaper breaks the tense silence that fills the room with a stupid, stupid question. You sigh and drift away from him, carefully walking around Killer and Dust, to go to the restroom. Everyone has started to go their own ways, with the less injured assisting people like Nightmare or Killer.

Most of them have left by now, but Lust still floats about living room, looking more sorry for himself than anything. He didn't land a single blow on anyone, but nor did you. Maybe you could help him feel better if that's what he was so upset about. 

You go to get the first aid kit, not really all too hurt yourself, but you may as well be useful. Nightmare got shot, Killer got speared, Dust got lots of cuts, and Cross and Error seem to be fine. No casualties, but they're not who you're particularly worried about. 

Lust might've broken something when he got hit by that motorcycle. Horror could've been cut when he was caught in that cage of bones and spears. You think you could stand to help around without causing too much trouble, everything should be fine as long as you don't bump into anyone. 

You'd love to help around if you were treated like a decent human being, but that's not something everyone cares about apparently. Perhaps monsters just have lower standards, or everyone you're forced to live with just doesn't care.

Probably the latter. 

Walking through Nightmare's mansion makes you somewhat relived to finally be... 'home'. It's more a place of shelter than anything, but you're happy to be here, even if it means you're going to be doing more chores than you were in the OmegaVerse. At least you won't have to worry about a creepy black-eyed kid staring a hole in you. That's a relief.

Grabbing the first aid kit is a simple task. You're moving faster than you need to, near sprinting to avoid being in the way of anyone who needs more care than you can provide. You catch a glimpse of Nightmare though, almost doubled over with nothing but Cross to support him. They both slink down the hall, moving at a much slower pace than you. 

When you reenter the front room, Lust stands next to Reaper, clutching his side but surely explaining what Reaper had missed. 

"Wait seriously?" He queried, blinking incredulously. "All that happened while I was in the bathroom...?" 

"Yeah." Lust muttered coughing up a small bit of blood. "You missed it all." 

"Hey, Lust." You interject, all but stealing his attention from Reaper. "You're hurt, can I umm, maybe see what's up?" 

You know nothing of monsters, but you do know some basic techniques to heal a wound. Ice bags, bandages, creams and ointments, all your kind of stuff, but anything serious is out of your bounds. 

Lust smirks suggestively at you, and you're immediately looking away to maybe find Horror, but you're not gone quick enough to miss his coquettish retort. 

"As much as I'd love to let you explore every inch of my body," He starts, and you're walking away as fast as you can without running. "No need! Though some medical wraps might be necessary!"

You rush up the stairs and ignore the awkward glances you get from Killer and Error. Lust is definitely a-ok if he's speaking to you like that. Already back on track with his dirty remarks and obscene gestures. You guess it couldn't have been long for that to happen, but you'll still provide the medical wraps... just in case. 

Walking down the hall to Horror's room tells you more than you intended to know. Dust tends to himself in his room, alone in the dark with the door open just a crack. Cross has taken Nightmare to his room, but the door is closed. Killer and Error are arguing about something you don't care to hear, and Horror sits alone in his room, bleeding from multiple small cuts.

"Horror!" You shout, watching his ghastly green eye light up significantly. His poor disguise is torn up and battered and the contact lenses still bewilder you. "I'm here to take care of you!" 

Horror beams as you sit down next to him, and you return the gesture with a smile of your own. You take Horror's hand in yours, but it curls into a loose fist and encircles your thumb. 

"No need, Cupcake." Horror kindly denies, and you do your best not to deflate. "I'll heal myself don't worry." 

"How?" You ask, not as a challenge but as a humble question. "Can I see?"

"I'm pretty sure I've already shown you." Horror mutters, hovering his free hand over a minor cut on his ulnar bone. "But I'll let you see it again." 

A soft green light illuminates the room. It's small, but kind, and the wound on Horror's arm slowly shrinks, then closes. 

It's an amazing feat, and you're left in awe while Horror chuckles, moving further down his arm. You watch, starstruck by Horror's abilities. What a useful skill. 

"I swear you've seen this before..." Horror whispers, taking a break to scratch the back of his skull. "It's simple healing magic." 

"Ok... but is there anything you need then?" You offer, still clutching Horror's hand as he thinks for a moment. 

"Maybe some medical wraps." He says, and you pull them out the first aid kit. 

"I have these." You state matter-of-factly, passing him the wraps which he takes gratefully. "Just don't use too much, Lust said he wanted some too." 

"Than—"

"WHO THE HELL TOOK THE FIRST AID KIT!?" You hear Cross yell, the door flying open and making you start. 

Cross is covered in slime, it's evaporating, but there's a lot. He looks mildly perturbed, but not angry as he extends a bony hand to receive the first aid kit from you. You instantly on your feet, handing him the kit and getting an appreciative nod in return before he leaves. 

He closes the door behind him, drowning you in the darkness of Horror's room before a green eye light brightens the spot where Horror sits. 

"Help me get the wraps on maybe?" He requests, holding the roll out to you. "I have a few cuts on my back, they're small though." 

"Sure." You agree, retaking your position next to him. 

"Thanks."
