(In Hater's room)
Hater: (lies on his bed, simply staring at the ceiling)
Wander: [lying dwn on the mattress nxt to Hater's bed, curled up in his usual fetal position n facing the wall, bk facing Hater]
Hater: :(... (gets up and brings one of his extra blankets over to Wander, laying it over him) Just in case... (goes back to his own bed)
Wander: [flinched a little at the blanket ovr him, then looked up to see Hater bk in his bed. His finger felt the nice smooth fabric tht made him feel warm n smiled a little] Thanks...
Hater: (looking away, slightly) ... Never hurts to help... (said this quietly)
Wander: [heard tht n smiled a little wider this time, then cuddled into the blanket to feel the warmth. A long pause later...] Hatey...?
Hater: Hm? (looks over at the nomad, a little worried)
Wander: [was still not facing him] ...Why did u become an overlord? Why do u want to conquer the nine galaxies?
Hater: ...It...It was a royal blood family thing... but they dissed me when they found out I was...swinging that way... (shrugs) But I still do it anyhow, despite not always being good at it. I'll admit that...
Wander: [another pause] Tht means ur family disowned u then? Why still do it?
Hater: ...I didn't know what else to do with my life...(hugs himself)
Wander: U could become a traveling rockstar or something. I knw u love to do ur tunes with ur electric guitar. I've seen it a few times wen I was captured by u. Or if u still wanna rule, u could just settle dwn on a random planet n rule there...
Hater: ...I suppose... (sees Wander's still trembling a little) Still cold?
Wander: A little bit. Is it always this chilly in ur ship?
Hater: Mostly when we travel into pretty deep space... (thinks for a moment; he's probably gonna say no to this, but...) (gets off his bed again, coming over slowly)
Wander: [felt Hater move n finally turned to face him, his face a little scared as he curled up tighter in the blanket]
Hater: ... (lies down and gently pulls over close to him) Not gonna do anything you don't want me to, just trying to take this more slowly... (lets his hand pet the back of Wander's head to ease his nerves)
Wander: [relaxed a little frm the petting n tentatively lay his head against the skeletor's chest, purring a bit as he closed his eyes] Thank u, Hatey... Ur not so evil after all
Hater: You figured, huh? (just holds him close to keep him warm)
Wander: [basked in the warmth of Hater's arms as he slowly drifted to sleep] G'night, Hatey... (sleepy)
Hater: (smiles softly)... Night, Wander... (kisses his forehead before falling alseep himself)
