Fulgrim knocks at the door to the guest suite - now his newest found brother‘s rooms -, a basket with various candies and pastries under his arm. „Konnie, I‘m coming inside now.“
A displeased grumble comes from the inside of the room and when Fulgrim walks through the door he identifies the source of the noise as a large, approximatly primarch-sized pile of blankets which shifts sligthly as he sits down.
„I brought you sweets, if you want to come out and sit with me.“ Fulgrim explains and pats the spot on the matress next to them.
„I do not want to come out. I am in a bad mood.“ The blanket pile mumbels in accented gothic, before a long pale hand reaches out from underneath.
Fulgrim places a piece of cake into his brothers hand and watches it disappear underneath the blanket again, immediatly followed by chewing noises. „Is there a reason for you not being well?“
„The universe is doomed, I dreamt of it…“ Night Haunter mumbels between trying to surpress a sniffel. „Do you also have sour candy?“
„Of course, here you go… we all have nightmares sometimes. Do you think a hug could help?“ Fulgrim asks as he puts several strips of green candy into Night Haunter‘s hand.
For a moment the room is filled with chewing noises again and then the noise of swallowing. „A hug?“
„The thing where I wrap both of my arms around you, like this.“ Fulgrim leans over and wraps his arms around the blanket pile, squeezing a little bit before letting go again.
A small giggle comes from under the blankets and after a moment a head full of long black hair pops out. „I enjoyed that… can you do it again?“
„Yes, if you want to dearest.“ Fulgrim smiles as he wraps his arms around Night Haunter, pulling him against his chest. „There, there… how about I draw you a warm bath? That always helps me feel better after a nightmare.“
„What if it doesn‘t help me?“ Night Haunter asks, still mostly wrapped in blankets.
Fulgrim runs a hand through his tussled dark hair. „Then you‘ll be warm and clean when you go back to hide under your blankets. And perhaps we can watch some holovids together afterwards?“
„Maybe… can we watch the holovids with the canids again? Please brother?“ Night Haunter asks as he grabs another handfull of candy.
„As many as you like, until you bad mood is gone.“
