This had to be the worst day of Adrian's life, actually, and he's had plenty of bad days since the day he was born. Well, that's a tad dramatic, isn't it? But he can't help feeling that way every now and again when he's dealing with emotions larger than his body is capable of holding after trying to help out his best friend of all time, Peacemaker.

In a way, he shouldn't be surprised that Peacemaker's tunnel vision of selfishness caused Adrian to be tortured for twenty minutes straight despite his pleas for both his supposed friend and Goff to stop. There is no words to describe being electrocuted about ten times and then almost having his big toe severed from his foot. He shouldn't be surprised, but he is and incredibly hurt in both a physical and emotional sense.

The only thing that made this night a little better after limping home from Henenlotter Video was opening the door to your smiling face. "Hey," he calls out, an arm stretching out to wrap around your shoulders to let you lead him over to the couch where he plops down with a pained grunt. "Don't ask, won't be able to tell 'ya, babes."

Adrian's gloved fingers combs through your soft hair, sliding over to rest on the back of your head, his own tilting back to rest on the couch. "Just know that I appreciate you, alright?" He can already feel gentle hands prying his suit open in order to see if there are any wounds or burns while he kicks off his boots and yanks off his mask to reveal his glasses-less face.

You're always patching him up whenever he gets too hurt without ever asking for anything in return. It almost makes him feel bad... then again, you do it without asking, so, should he really?
