The fire lapped at his side slightly, the flames coaxing his gaze away from the stars. Frozen, no matter how vigiorus the blaze was, how loud the crackles were. He stood frozen on the spot.
That song, it echoed throughout the space, vibrating against his ribs and rattling what remained of his heart. 'Don't know where...don't know when...'. A light, one of the few gentle warmths around him. A muffled voice, pairs of pink limbs reaching out for him, pink frills rippling about in the cosmos.
He jolted up. Sweat slickened down his sides, a soft warmth switched his frantic gaze towards the tv. Fake, scanlines buzzed up and down the fireplace. His hands were still quivering, lungs heaving against his ribs. His hands found themselves against the fluffy fabric against his body, rapidly grasping and unfurling.
She lunged, a swift grasp of his sides only to be met with a piercing blue scowl. "What?!", "Jeez kid relax! Just wanted to check on ya!". She paused, a slight twitch crinkling her nose. Her form flopped back in the arm chair once again. Dragging the now squirming angle into her furry embrace. The fleshy ground below dipped, Bill's feet slipping up until he found himself with an eye full of fur.
