[Roleplay] The Exiled - MOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[nard]

I lay in the hospital bed with a stiff, white sheet over my hurting body.


I'm deaf again. The aid must've broken when the bookcase hit me...

 

[Naiad]

I nervously open the door. "Please be okay..." I mumble.

 

[nard]

I slightly turn my head and see Cepheus walk in.


What if he tries to talk to me? I can't hear him...

 

[Naiad]

"Oh my ****ing God..."

I slowly make my way over to the bed. "... This is all my fault..."

I stroke his face. "... Oh god...."

 

[nard]

I sadly smile up at him.


Don't worry Ceph, I'll be fine... Right?

 

[Naiad]

"I— I'm so sorry..."

I cup his face, hesitant. "... Sorry.." I mumble. I bring my face closer to his and kiss him softly.

 

[nard]

I don't hesitate one bit to return the kiss. If only I could hear your voice.

 

[Naiad]

I moan.

... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry...

 

[nard]

I release from the kiss and look away from him.

You can get through this for Cepheus, right Amos? Yes, you have to. If only I could hear him...

 

[Naiad]

"Amos..?"

I frown when I notice his hearing aid missing. ... Wait a second. Exactly how deaf was he...?

 

[nard]

I continue to watch his mouth over and want to talk back to him, but I wouldn't never know if I was actually speaking. "..." I look away again.

 

[Naiad]

I sigh. ".... Alright, how about this?"

I cup Amo's face, forcing him to look at me. "By God, you're deaf, aren't you?"

I sign the following message. "Hey. You feeling alright?"


(( I'm actually really bad at sign language like I learned it once in 2nd grade and never again ))

 

[nard]

( tbh how bout we learn sign language and then we can discuss ships in it )

He knows sign language? I begin to move my arms and I stop from discomfort.


Now I really can't talk to him.

 

[Naiad]

I bite my lip. "What else can I do..?"

 

[nard]

I pull the sheet over my head and start to silently weep, not that I can hear myself anyways.

 

[Naiad]

"Amos.."

I pull back the sheet slowly. "I'm here for you." I sign, smiling weakly.

 

[nard]

I don't make eye contact with him and I keep crying.


I can't do this anymore. I just want to die.

 

[Naiad]

I nuzzle his cheek. "... Everything's going to be just fine. We'll get you a new one."

 

[nard]

I stare at the ceiling and whimper every so often.


Why did I have to be deaf? Why me of all people?

 

[Naiad]

I sigh. ".... I should talk to the printing department. There has to be a 3d printer somewhere around here, right..?"

I head to the door. "Somewhere..."
