"You're the only person I know who could move to LA and somehow get paler," Olivia said.
She'd been perched on the counter beside him while he scrubbed off his makeup. Some of the crew didn't seem to like her, but truthfully, Nyx thought she was alright. Maybe a bit attention seeking, but who wasn't in this industry?
"What can I say, I'm a vampire," Nyx joked, drying his face.
"Yeah? Didn't know vampires bruised so easily," she said, pointing at a rather nasty one that was starting to bloom on his arm.
Nyx hadn't even noticed it, and frowned as he gave it a closer look. "I must have whacked my arm off something earlier," he said with a yawn.
"Are you sleeping at all?" she asked. "Jesus, Nyx, you seem permanently exhausted."
Nyx shook his head though, rubbing his arm a bit and then shrugging. "I swear, lately all I do is sleep. It's become my favorite pastime."
Olivia clicked her tongue thoughtfully, then pushed away whatever she'd been thinking with a laugh and a smile. "Yeah, well, if you're sick, keep it to yourself. I'm hosting a charity thing this weekend. Don't need your germs, thanks."
"I'm hurt," Nyx said, pretending to pout. "Thought we shared everything, Liv," he teased, leaning over and pretending to try and steal a kiss.
Olivia shrieked out a laugh, pushing him away and nearly falling into the sink. "Dickhead," she snorted, still laughing as she fixed her hair.
"Your dickhead though," Nyx grinned, walking away as she laughed again and flipped him off. On the way out the door he nearly walked right into House- Who was either on his way in, or on his way past. Nyx couldn't really tell. "Alright, Greg?" he asked.

Date: 2025-04-13 01:35 am (UTC)Nyx was so close, so close. He barely had a chance to gasp out a warning before he was coming with a sharp cry of pleasure. His fingers digging into the other man's shoulders.
"Greg," he moaned, the other man's name lingering on his lips.

Date: 2025-04-13 01:43 am (UTC)He wanted to stay there on top of him, but he couldn’t stop himself from crumpling onto rhe bed beside him with a wince as soon as he pulled out. Though he slid an arm around Nyx anyway.

Date: 2025-04-13 01:51 am (UTC)It took Nyx a moment to catch his breath, curling up closer and holding Greg.
"Alright?" he asked softly, his concern genuine.

Date: 2025-04-13 02:14 am (UTC)"Maybe I like to take care of you," Nyx said softly, moving so he was half on top of him, and starting to gently rub his leg. "You matter to me."
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 02:19 am (UTC)“Thank you,” he finally said, and then added quietly, “It really was worth it.”
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 02:24 am (UTC)"Good," he said softly, leaning over and kissing his cheek.
He worked his hand over the ache until it seemed like Greg might be doing better, then lay back down beside him.
"I'm glad I met you. Not just because I got the role or whatever, but- I'm glad I have you in my life. I don't know how much longer I would have stayed here if it wasn't for you, and the show. I wasn't really sure this was the place for me. ...It feels good though, being here, with you."
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 02:28 am (UTC)Pretty sure I’m falling in love with you, actually.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 02:30 am (UTC)"You're important to me too," Nyx smiled, settling in and yawning softly.
He was exhausted. Again.

Date: 2025-04-13 01:54 pm (UTC)Nyx could hear the disappointment in his tone.
"No, I'm fine," he lied, forcing himself to sit up slightly. "I just need to eat something, probably."

Date: 2025-04-13 02:47 pm (UTC)"No," Nyx assured him. "I just feel a little off lately, that's all. I told you, I'm not used to having to work this much. I used to sleep all day and maybe play a show at the end of the night, or crawl into the studio. Even the films I did were only a month or so of filming."

Date: 2025-04-13 03:09 pm (UTC)Nyx rolled his eyes a little, then laughed. "Sure, fine, but I'm telling you it's nothing, alright?" he grinned, leaning over to kiss the other man's cheek.
"Let's order some food. Oh! Some wine too, yeah?"
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 03:14 pm (UTC)He leaned over an picked up the phone on the bedside table. He had an idea for the kind of food Nyx liked, so he ordered a few things and a bottle wine as well.
When he hung up he said, "They said it will be about half an hour. What if we take a bath? I spotted a big tub in there, and a couple of nice fluffy robes."
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 03:31 pm (UTC)"Sounds like bliss," Nyx grinned, stretching a bit, then getting up and offering Greg his hand. "That's what my place is missing, a nice big bath."

Date: 2025-04-13 04:25 pm (UTC)"They ripped out my tub in my apartment, it's just a big shower," Nyx said. "Lease is up soon though, I guess I'll have to look for another place."
