Raven and Gifteds random 1x1s

[Gifted]

Joan led him to a hotel and got them both rooms. "The only upside to what I do is I get plenty of money as thank-you's from different towns, which I take so I don't have to have a ob i gotta excuse myself from to do this... anyway I don't mind paying for and extra room and I doubt you want to share."

[Raven]

"I can sleep on the floor, unless you're uncomfortable with it. It would worry me to just leave you alone," Ben answered.

[Gifted]

"I sleep alone all the time." Joan smiled. "Besides, I don't want to make you sleep on the floor."

[Raven]

"Yeah, but you said yourself he left unusually early. What if he comes back?" Ben asked.

[Gifted]

It took her a really long time to admit what she was actually thinking. "I... I have really bad nightmares, alright?" She said, as if admitting a great weakness. "They're pretty common... you'll never get to sleep if you're in the same room."

[Raven]

"I don't mind, but it might be better, in that case. He might attack sooner because of how this went," Ben said, and gently put a hand on her shoulder.

[Gifted]

"You're probably right, but I just don't think it's fair to keep you up all night... we'll never beat him sleep-deprived."

[Raven]

Ben nodded. "Yeah, that's true. I'll wake you if anything happens," he said.

[Gifted]

Joan nodded. "We'll get rooms right next door to each other. That way we're close enough to protect each other but far enough away you'll get a decent nights sleep."

[Raven]

"Yeah," Ben agreed. "I'll make sure to sleep ready."

[Gifted]

Joan nodded and got them each a room, and the two of them headed upstairs to the rooms. "See you tomorrow morning, Ben." She said, before heading to her room. It was a little early for sleep, but she didn't want to be drop dead tired tomorrow so i was best for her to get to sleep now.

[Raven]

Ben went to his as well, to finish his workout that had been interrupted earlier. He tried not to think about what Isobel must be doing in their own world. He'd just disappeared with no warning, no note.... It was a long while before he fell asleep, but when he did, it was untroubled.

[Gifted]

At two in the morning, Bens door opened softly. The other Ben grinned. He had the perfect plan for this stupid kid. He walked up to the younger Ben's bed, when suddenly, there was a cry of fear from the next room. He froze, thinking she'd somehow awoken and knew. But after a moment, the sound died into an alost continuous, muffled whimper and he realized she was just having a nightmare.
He grinned and looked down at the kid. "You really fucked up this time, Wenkeling." He said quietly, placing a hand over the kids mouth and withdrawing from his pocket a needle full of morphine he'd had stolen from a hospital. "Let the games begin."

[Raven]

Ben jumped awake, shouting in fear, though it wasn't loud at all due to his alternate's hand. His hand went to the arm that was in his immediate field of vision and his eyes glowed as he tried to shock the man off him.

[Gifted]

Ben tried to control the pain and put the syringe to his lips the way he would put his finger there if he wasn't holding something. "Shhh..." He said quetly lowering the syringe and sticking it into young Bens arm as he injected the morphine. "You're just having a bad dream...."
