Sollux, Mituna
I looked over at my sleeping brother, his hair was pushed into his face as usual and he was softly snoring. It occurred to me that I had never seen his eyes so I put down the Nintendo DS lite that Mituna had broken recently, he was mostly clumsy and the only time he was peaceful was in his sleep. I sat on his lap making sure not to wake him as I brushed his hair away and stared at two closed eyes rimed with thick lashes. I would ask him to show me his eyes later. I sat on the pillow again and picked up the DS again and started tinkering it, it took me a total of 10 minutes to fix it back up for 'tuna. I looked over at the sleeping boy again we were sat on our ratty old beige couch and I had to sit on a pillow because the couch itself was too hard, Mituna's legs hung off and were laid upon the floor. We only had one pillow but Mituna insisted I used it and he fell asleep easily although it must have been uncomfortable and difficult. i looked over at his tall figure that was wearing a yellow and black sports outfit. Mituna didn't play sports though and no team would even let him watch their games, they didn't want him to mess them up. I didn't think it was fair, what they said about my brother but he didn't seem to care so I didn't bring it up, he stirred.
"Tuna?" I asked looking at him or his hair at least.
"yethh, thhollux?" his voice impairment as the doctors called it had gotten worse, it was no longer just a lisp like mine and even I had a hard time understanding him sometimes.
"How was your sleep?" despite my young age I felt like I had to be an adult around Mituna.
"it wathh good." He said with confidence this would be one of his good days, I knew this would be a good day, I just knew it.
"I fixed your DS." I handed him the device and laughed as his face lit up.
"thankthh thhollux!" he took it in his hands and began playing Animal crossing.
"No problem tuna." I whispered. "No problem, at all."
