《cocaine makes you boring ; ws oneshots》lonely nights {w.c.d}

It was around 2 in the morning when David woke up, and he was confused to say the least. He wasn't fully sure why he woke up in the first place, seeing as the man had been getting a fine amount of sleep that night, and he wasn't ill at all, maybe-
Oh, oh. There was a faint sound in the room next to him, and that must be what woke him up. The more he listened in though, the more he could actually hear what the sound in question was. Someone was crying, and there were only two other people in the house at the time.
Wilbur and Charlie.
He let out a slight huff as he got out of bed, pushing his blankets back and let out a quiet "fuck" when the floorboards creaked just that bit too loud.
David slowly made his way to the living room first, where Charlie was sleeping. The taller male was still passed out on the couch, arm hanging off of the sofa.
If the blue-texted man was still asleep, then..
A loud thump and a spur of quiet swearing from Wilbur's room alerted him, and apparently also Charlie who rubbed at his eyes, squinting at David's form in the middle of the room.
"D'vid? What.... What's up?" He asked, confusion lacing his tone.
"Woke up to crying, and I thought it was you, so I checked up on you, but..." David quietly spoke whilst motioning to the only occupied room behind them, and the other nodded in understanding.
"So.. Wil's crying then." He said, recognition in his eyes as he slowly got off of the couch. The green-texted man nodded in response. This wasn't a common happening, which as the most worrying part for them. The duo quietly made their way over to the room of the guitarist, hearing soft sobs and hiccups that were very poorly being muffled by the other.

David pushed open the door, and all of the sounds stopped.
Wilbur was sitting on his bed, curled up in on himself, eyes wide as he stared at the silhouettes of Charlie and David in the doorway.
"Hey Wil.. You uh, you good there?" David softly asked, looking at how absolutely wrecked the tallest looked. Eyes glossed over with tears, bags under his eyes that were a very deep purple in contrast to the rest of his skin, already usually messy hair even more messy, appearing to have been tugged at harshly.
"Yeah, no, everything's fine. You- you can go back to bed now."
David only walked more into the room, propping down next to the tallest, Charlie coming over as well.
"Nope. We're not gonna do that. Not when you were just bawling your eyes out."
Charlie sighed as he fully took in the appearance of his friend. He wasn't going to say it out loud of course, but the other looked like total shit.
"When was the last time you slept..?" The blue-texted man asked softly, putting a hand in Wilbur's hair. He frowned when the man practically crumpled and curled against Charlie's side with another muffled sob.
A shaky breath. "T..two days ago?"
David looked at Charlie with widened eyes. What the fuck.
"You need some kind of sleep.." David said, slightly saddened as he also leaned more into his friend, wrapping his arm around the guitarist's waist. "Come on, you can sleep now. You won't be hurt."
Wilbur, with what little space he had due to being crumpled into Charlie's side and also having an arm wrapped around him by David, just shook his head. "Nightmares."
The blue-shirted man began lightly petting the hair of the other.
"What about?" The green-texted man curled ever so closer to him.
"..You guys leaving me. I- I was so alone. I was the only one running the channel, David tried calling me but I didn't answer because I- I was so fucking scared, and just-" He broke out into more sobs, tightly gripping onto his arms. David moved his hand from Wilbur's waist to hug him, in turn also pulling Charlie in.
The tallest sobbed into the chest of his friend while the other held him up for stability.
They were going to be okay.

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
