It had been a fucking long day. To be fair, that could be said about most of Blitzo's days.
Blitzo came home with a pounding headache and every part of his body burning like he ran a marathon instead of the reality, having just done his normal job.
Usually, it took a lot more for things to get this bad. A lot of running around and climbing. But the most frustrating part of it all was that he barely did anything today.
Not even making it to the couch or a chair, Blitzo decides to just lay on the floor, defeated.
After a few minutes pass, Blitzo hears footsteps approach. He lifts his head just enough to see that it's Fizz.
"Floor time, huh?" Fizz comments.
"Floor time." Blitzo agrees.
It's not the first time this has happened. Sometimes, either Blitzo or Fizz (on rare occasions, both at once), when entirely bone-tired, wouldn't make it to any actual proper place to sit or lie down and end up on the floor. It happened a lot more than Blitzo liked to admit.
Fizz kneels down next to Blitzo and starts to nudge his shoulder. "C'mon. Get up."
Blitzo groans in response again, lowering his head again.
"It's going to hurt worse if you keep laying there." Fizz points out.
"I don't wanna get up." Blitzo mutters stubbornly.
Fizz tilts his head at him, a hand on his hip. "Don't make me call the bird."
Raising his head, Blitzo gives a half-hearted glare. "Don't you dare call Stolas -"
"I'm calling him." Fizz retorts defiantly, grabbing his phone.
Blitzo groans, letting his head fall back down and press against the cool floor. It just wasn't worth fighting anymore.
About five minutes later, now Blitzo has both of his partners teaming up against him.
Stolas croons at Blitzo, trying to coax him to get up. "Just for a few moments, darling, then you can lay down somewhere that isn't..the floor." Stolas murmurs, stroking the back of Blitzo's neck.
Blitzo, being as stubborn as he is, doesn't give in that easily. It takes them a few more minutes, and some bribing, but eventually Blitzo lets them help him off the floor and to his feet.
"Easy, B." Fizz says as Blitzo immediately groans upon standing.
While Fizz gets Blitzo settled on the couch, Stolas busies himself getting Blitzo's medication, a heating pad and Blitzo's favorite of the week out of his stuffed horses.
By the time Stolas returns, Fizz has already set up one of Blitzo's favorite horse movies. Making sure Blitzo has everything he needs, Stolas gives Blitzo all of the things he gathered for him before settling on Blitzo's other side.
Despite insisting that they didn't need to fuss over him, it isn't long until he's curled up, his head tucked in the crook of Fizz's neck, and Stolas' hand in his. He also falls asleep twenty minutes into the movie, another thing he had insisted he wasn't going to do.
