[Killua, for all his training and experience in things objectively far more horrifying than this, would be pressed to specifically quantify his anxiety in this moment. his throat feels tight, and he can't see the more specific movements of Blue's line of sight or anything—but his energy is unmistakable, especially as a Nen user.]
Blue—...
[his breath shudders with the exhalation of his friend's name. he came back...but... instinctively, it isn't hard to surmise why Blue is back so late. not because of anything good. because he wants to leave. because Killua fucked up. this is what his hyper vigilance is all about.
Killua feels something desperate well up in him, right down to the tips of his fingers; a fist clutches the fabric of their couch, his breath hiccuping quietly in his throat when his voice catches. for the second time that night, Peromei is deployed with a negative emotional aspect, churning discreetly beneath the dip of Killua's shirt.
he doesn't want to give into the idea that he was right all along. that he would eventually mess this up. that he couldn't be friends with someone like Blue. he doesn't want to believe it, but his instincts have always been good.]
