A Holiday Surprise (closed w/ selfmedicatingmayor)

Carlos smiled at Hancock. He wished he had a bigger coat, but the labcoat was not meant to be used for warmth at all, and Carlos’ sweater was only built for one person. He cuddled back against Hancock as best as he could – at least it was a short walk back to the Statehouse.

“I’d like to look and see if we have milk too,” Carlos said. “If that’s okay.”

Now… back to chocolate… “Chocolate… it has like a sort of weird, rich flavor to it,” he started to explain. “I don’t know how to describe it… it felt kind of like warm milk when you chewed it because it had a low melting point and would spread all over your tastebuds. Kind of like ice cream, but not exactly the same.” Carlos laughed. “Gosh, I really don’t know how to make that make sense… but the science behind it is that chocolate can help improve blood flow and oxygen availability when you breathe. It just… feels really good to eat.”

“We can always pick up some more on the way home if you’d like.” He offered with a smile and pecked him lightly on the cheek. As he listened, only a little of what Carlos told him, clearly their experiences hadn’t been at all the same, because he was only able to relate to bits and pieces.

“I’ve….. actually never had ice cream before. That does sound good though, I wish I could try it. Maybe we’ll get lucky and find some someday, huh? Won’t be the same as whatever you had in your vault but should still be good, right?”

Oh shit, that’s right. Damn…

“Um, the thing with ice cream, Hancock, is that it’s frozen. It’s literally frozen milk and cream ingredients. And if we did find a container of it, it’d probably have not only melted but spoiled and petrified. I guess there’s a possibility that dehydrated ice cream still exists. It tastes the same, just drier. But if there was any to be had, I would assume that it would have been one of the first things to go.”

Carlos wished more than anything in that moment to have somehow rationed even a single piece of chocolate or a small package of dehydrated ice cream just to share it with Hancock – share as in give it to him since he had never tasted any of it before. But Carlos knew how ridiculous that thought was and tried to shake it away.

the forest was quiet as usual til what sounded like a storm opened up from a small circle a few feet off the ground, complete with lightening flash off and striking trees but as quickly as the the ‘storm’ started, it ended, leaving only a few burn marks and a broken man on the ground -(sending this again cause i know tumblitch eats asks) dedmax, a starter for jon!

Carlos went out into the storm with his equipment, since the weather was really interesting around Sleepy Peak Peak (what, with Spooky island and that one side of the lake always being covered in dark, foreboding clouds).

As he approached one of the locations of a lightning strike however he paused, seeing a person on the ground. Oh no – did it strike someone?

Carlos hurried over and dropped his equipment to the side to start inspecting the body for life.

“He-hello? Hello, can you hear me? Sir?”

J: he chuckled softly “I don’t know about other demons, But My broken
brain just won’t let Me sleep most nights.. Then again, I think I had
this before I died, So it might not be involved with demons…”

“Ah… so you have insomnia then,” Carlos said. “At least, that’s what it sounds like to me. “

J: he tilted his head slightly “Insomnia? I think I’ve read about that before..”

“Oh, you have? That’s good. Hey, maybe do you want to mention it to the doctors? They can help you sleep tonight if you ask nicely, I think.”

J: he shrgus “I prefer to sit awake and rethink everything I’ve ever done/Hate Myself, Really saves time during the day”

Carlos frowned at that. “That doesn’t sound like a good use of your time,” he said softly. But he didn’t speak about it further – it was probably a sensitive subject.

J: he started to say something before the nurse walked in 

Nurse: “Sir, Visiting hours are over”

J: “Damn.. Guess we can talk more later”

Carlos nodded with a smile. “Sure,” he said, and he stood up from his chair. He offered Jon a hand to shake. “I’ll see you in the morning, alright?”

J: he smiled as he shook the others hand “I’ll be looking forward to it, But what time do You think ?”

“When visiting hours open again,” Carlos said. “9… 9.30. I’ll be here.”

“Would you prefer that I scrape even lower into poop jokes?” Carlos teased, but he had a good-natured grin on his face. He understood, of course. He decided that, at least on this trip, he’ll try hard to make the jokes work for Hancock.

“Heh, now that I don’t think I’d be so forgivin’ of.” Hancock snorted, his smile spreading wider. “Too much bathroom humor and I’ll leave ya out here, so be careful’a resortin’ to that too much for a cheap laugh, mate.”

Carlos nodded. “Right, of course,” Carlos said. “The last thing you want to hear is a shitty joke.” He grinned and waited to see if this one landed well.

“Mr Stark,” Carlos began, his tone casual and conversational. “I have a hypothesis that I think I should run by you.”

Tony’s eyes widened with instant curiosity.  “Okay,” he said with an encouraging smile, “what’s your hypothesis?”

Carlos offered Stark a small smile back.

“It’s about you,” he said. They were alone in the lab at the moment – it was later and it had been a long day for everyone who wasn’t Carlos or Mr Stark – so Carlos felt like now was a good time to bring this up.

Carlos hurried over and dropped his equipment to the side to start inspecting the body for life.

“He-hello? Hello, can you hear me? Sir?”

J: he smiled softly “Good..” he sits up “Now help Me get the fuck out of here”

“Out of the hospital?” Carlos asked. “Dude, you were bleeding profusely. You should wait a bit to heal up…”

J: “Pfft, I’ll be fine” he started carefully pulling tubes out “Besides, Staying in here is like torture for Me..”

Carlos blinked at him. “I”m not sure I understand… how so? Because you’ll be discovered as a non-human?”

J: “Probably, But bed rest is one of the worse things in the universe” he groans slightly as he moves to the edge of the bed

“That is a terrible reason to leave a hospital,” Carlos said. “Just because you get bored.” He reached out to (gently) take Jon’s arm and keep him from moving any more. “Lay down. You’re seriously hurt.”

J: “I’ve been worse!” he glanced down at the others arm “Besides, I’ve got alot of work I need to get too, Not to mention the fact I pratically disappear from home and no one’s knows where I am..”

Carlos sighed. “Look, they probably won’t release you without a ride home anyway,” Carlos said. “They’re going to kick me out here in a second because visiting hours are almost over. How about you check yourself out in the morning and I’ll be there with a car so that they will let you go?” That way if Jon suddenly turned for the worst that night, he’d be somewhere safe.

J: he sighed softly “.. Promise You’ll be here in the morning..?” he rose a brow as he looked up a the other

“Yeah, absolutely,” Carlos told him with a smile. “I was planning on coming in to check up on you anyways.”

J: he hesitated slightly before shifting back into bed “Fine, I’ll stay one night but then I’m gone..”

“Great,” Carlos said. “Now just try to rest up, okay? I’ll be back here as soon as visiting hours open up.”

J: “Unless they have something to knock Me the fuck out, I don’t think I’ll be sleeping..” he lays back down

“For physiological reasons?” Carlos inquired.

J: “Yeah..”  he sighs softly, rubbing his side

“Do your people just not sleep as much?“ Carlos asked, his scientific curiosity piqued. “Or – actually, are you okay with telling me?”
