A week or so after all the shit happened, Reboot and Jam had just stayed with Halluciv.
Halluciv cleared out Marvul's room and slept there, and let Reboot use his.
They also had an extra room in the basement that wasn't really used that Jam said he'd stay in.

It was an early and rainy morning, Reboot was wide awake, laying alone.

Halluciv and Jam were worrying about Reboot,even if he was horribly sick he'd always be trying to protect, check, and Save the multiverse.
But since they left Eraser, he seemed really silent and uninspired... Which wasn't normal at all.

Reboot was always an early riser, but knowing his physical pain, it wasn't expected of him to get up.

Halluciv had talked to Jam, and agreed that he'd talk to Reboot and find out what's happening, then explain his plan for today...

Halluciv went to his room and lightly tapped on the door. "Reboot?"
He didn't hear anything...
"I'm coming in, alright?" He said as he opened the door slowly.

As expected, Reboot was laying in the bed, seeming lifeless.
Though, he saw his eyes on Halluciv.
Reboot moved a bit, before using his arms to sit himself up and moved back to lean against the back of the bed.

"How're you feeling?" Halluciv asked as he went and sat on the bed beside him.
Reboot sighed and looked out the window. "I guess it's better then before. There isn't any numbness and I don't need pills for the pain."

Halluciv nodded slowly. "Are you hungry?" He offered.
Reboot, though shook his head... "No, I'm okay."
Even though Reboot sounded honest, Halluciv didn't believe it.
He moved back closer to Reboot, well within arms reach.
"Are you okay? I need you to be honest."

Reboot looked down at his hands for a long moment. Then turned and leaned into Halluciv, and buried his face into his shoulder.
Halluciv hugged him. "...Do-Do you miss Eraser?"
"No, I don't miss him. I actually feel free, for the first time in my life. I should feel better and happier, but I don't know what's happening." Reboot shook his head frantically.

Halluciv had a guess, but didn't really... Feel like it was best to say.
Reboot didn't have his emotional support that he could always go to, and especially a time like this is when he needed it the most.
"Is it alright if I just ask you something?" Halluciv asked quietly.
Reboot gave slow small nods.

"Well, my brother, you're not the first... Well, first threesome.. Or whatever... But he's actually hurt a lot more people in the same way... I've-I've been talking to Xcellence, and honestly, I think he should lose his privilege of having his own magic. I know him being a bad guy should make him lose privileges, and he has, but  what he's been doing is worse."

Reboot immediately disagreed with this.
The rape was one thing that should be punished, but not this way.
A monsters magic could be abused and used in a wrong way.
But, especially for a skeleton, it was their only defence.

If they had no magic they were an easy target and an easy kill.
The punishment both Eraser and Marvul should have was death, but Reboot didn't want that for anyone.

Reboot had already made up his mind, that once he was able to walk properly and mostly healed that he'd go everywhere he knew Eraser would go, and tell everyone to not allow him to use his name in order to get things.
Eraser would go to bars and stores, and use the title of "Reboot's husband" to get whatever he'd like.
Reboot had given full permission for that, but he was going to take it back.
