He reached, trying to hit Tavros, though he was weaker than the other now, and not really dangerous.

Tavros grabbed Gamzee's hand. "No Gamzee... You do not hurt your friends."

He growled and tried to hit him again.

Tavros grabbed the other hand. "No Gamzee! Remember who you are!"

He leaned forward and bit down on Tavros' shoulder, drawing blood.

He let go and moved quickly behind Gamzee to tie his hands together. "Stop it Gamzee!!!"

He wailed loudly, pupils dilating. He tried to break free, screaming loudly. He kicked his feet, trying to get to Tavros. He looked like a rabid animal, minus the foaming at the mouth part.

He shook his head and sighed. "I love you Gamzee, please just calm down..." He had moved away from the other troll.

Gamzee was shuddering, eyes rolling around wildly. His wailing had only grown louder, turning into a sound that sounded more animal than anything else. The noise had managed to attract Equius who had been stopping to check up on Tavros. He busted in the door, thinking someone was dying. He blinked a few times, then turned on Tavros. "You're keeping this thing as a pet?!" He looked infuriated. "He's dangerous." Though he had to admit that without the makeup or horns, Gamzee just looked like a pitiful, confused child. Even more so since he was bound up and bandaged. The blue blood looked at Tavros' shoulder. "He bit you?!"

"Hm?" Tavros hadn't even given much thought to the bit. "Oh.. I guess he did...." He simply shrugged. "And he's not my pet. he's my Matesprit... He's just having a bit of a hard time..." He looked to Equius. "Can I help you?"

The blue blood snickered. "Matesprit? Look at him...He isn't anything more than a rabid, possessed creature..." His secret crush for Tavros was bringing all of this out of him. Meanwhile, Gamzee was thrashing around, crying and opening up new wounds. He managed to get out of his bonds, slipping chaffed wrists through the rope. He lunged at Equius who struck him down with a nasty blow to the head. The capricorn troll yelped and lay very still. then tried to stand again, kinda zombie walking at Equius who hit him again. only this time, Gamzee managed to get a good bite on the blue blood's neck. Equius screamed, trying to shake the purple blood off of his bleeding neck.

"Gamzee! Stop!!" he stood and got the purple-blood off the blue-blooded troll and threw him to the ground before binding him back up, this time to the bed. Tinkbull had already brought over more wrappings to help wrap up Equius. "I may as well get a license in this..." He joked, though the matter was serious

Equius had a new hatred for Gamzee, wanting him no less than dead. He stared at the bound, screaming troll. Tinkerbull had a needle and injected a seditive into Gamzee, making him stop moving, whimpering and sobbing. His brain was still in a crazy state, but he no longer had the energy to act on it. Equius frowned. "Tavros...how are you going to deal with this? Are you going to tie him down every time he gets like this?" He shook his head sadly. "Give up. He's to horrible for you."

"He's not too horrible for me... He makes me happy...." He looked over at Gamzee, despite the purple-blood being in the state he was. "He knows how to make me smile, and laugh.... And I can tell him anything...." He sighed softly. "If I can't be with him in his downs, I don't need to be with him when he's up."

Equius seemed not to understand this emotion. He watched the purple blood whimper and twitch, looking very out if it. "Tav...ros..." Gamzee moaned softly, sounding high. His eyes were half lidded and he seemed drowsy. It could've been considered a sensual look if not for the circumstances surrounding the past few moments.

He moved over to Gamzee's side. "Gamzee... Gamzee, it's okay..."

He just groaned, saying something incomprehensible. The drugs had him a mess and he just stared at his Matesprit.

"It's okay Gamzee..." He kissed the purple-blood's forehead. "I promise it's okay"

Equius looked at Tavros, then frowned, clearly bothered. "Well. You seem to have it under control.." He left in a hurry. Gamzee's arms were starting to chaff even more from his bonds. He was completely limp, seeming kind of weird.

Tavros loosened the the bind so he wasn't tugging against them anymore. "Gamzee, are you okay...?"

The purple blood moaned. "Head hurts..." He had a place where Equius hit him, and his other wounds also hurt. He started to sob. "I'm sorry..."

"Shh..." He hugged the purple blood. "Don't be sorry, okay?"

He shook his head. "I messed up again."

"no. You didn't mess up." He stroked the other's head softly and gently. "you can't mess up, alright?"

"Why can't I stop it...?" He whispered.
