Work Text:
All the sbk'ers just spent most of the today playing some the various mini games doted around the map and having a fun time with their friends when the sun started to set.
So after saying good bye to everyone for the day, Nuke started resetting the game, and Viking went to collect he stuff before he left.
Which meant that Nuke and Viking were the only ones who had not left yet.
Nukeri had just finished resetting the game for next time when he looked over at Viking just standing on the path and noticed the almost vacant look in his eyes.
"Hey, Dude, are you OK?" Nuke asked, coming to stand in Viking's field of view but not directly in front of him just in case he startled the other.
Viking blinked quickly a few times, clearly startled, before nodding at him, which told Nuke that Viking was in fact not fine, because Viking almost always responds verbally when asked any question.
"OK yeah, you are so not fine, do you want to go back to Burch where Vintage is or to Spruce with me?"
Viking held up his hand with two fingers up, Spruce kingdom it is.
"Do you want touch or no touch, Viking?" Nuke asked as he collected Viking shulker box full of stuff.
Viking shook his head no on touch and Nuke nodded to him before making his way back to Spruce kingdom with Viking trailing along be hind him.
After they made their way back to Spruce kingdom and climbed up to the mill area Nuke had Viking sit down on one of the beds and get comfortable before handing him a weighted blanket and going to make tea for them both.
When Nukeri came back with the tea mugs and handed one to Viking he also grabbed a note pad and pen and handed it to Viking.
"Did something overwhelm you today?" Nuke asked, pulling out a chair and taking a seat.
Viking started writing, lots of yelling and people touching me unexpectedly.
Fair enough, "do you want me to leave you alone for just now or do you want my company?"
I would like for you to keep me company please, just don't expect me to talk very much, I'm not sure if I can right now.
"That's perfectly fine dude, if you need anything please don't hesitate to ask though, also I don't think Leon will be back until way later or possibly tomorrow if you decide to stay the night."
Viking nodded, thank you for the invitation, I may take it :)
"Of course dude, do you want to spin some wool with me?"
Sure, what colors do you have?
"Blue, yellow, green and black just now but I can go get some different colors if you want some more variety."
That's OK for now, give me the black wool right now please.
"Of course dude, here you go." Nuke said as he handed the wool and drop spindle to Viking, who took them both and started the process of spinning the fibers together.
And that is how they spent the evening, spinning wool and drinking their tea. Leon did eventually come back for the evening and drink tea with them and recount his after noon to Nuke and Viking, who at this time was able to speak again so he would also interject on occasion.
It was a nice, calm evening well spent.
