After a quick call confirming Evan is alive and well and working a shift, Lui wants to go to the club to speak to Tyler and squeeze the life out of Evan. David insists to drive him, worried, and Lui doesn't have the air in him to fight.

"Are you okay, Lui?" A dumb question, David knows that, but there isn't much else he can say. He's in a better place? Highly unlikely, whether Lui believes in heaven or not. Lui just shrugs, his eyes fixed to the dark world outside his window. It's almost three am by now and David is tired too, but he doesn't want Lui doing anything stupid.

Well this is new.

They arrive at the club not long after, and David says he'll wait in the car. So Lui walks into the club through the back entrance, rubbing his eye and takin deep breathes. Evan should be off stage soon, he tells himself, Evan will be off stage soon. Lui prays he won't run into Craig, he doesn't want to deal with him and his sass right now. So, he goes to Tyler's office and knocks.

"Come inside!" Is that Craig? Jesus, why does he sound so winded? Lui snorts and rolls his eyes, opening the door and taking a step inside. He immediately regrets it. Thankfully almost everything is hidden by Tyler's desk, but with Craig shirtless in Tyler's lap, Lui gets the point. So that's what he meant by come inside.

Craig pants, whining against Tyler's shoulder and saying something. But Tyler zones in on Lui and growls, literally growls. "Get. Out."

Lui doesn't need to be told twice, running out of the office and slamming the door shut. Lui swallows hard, this has been a long fucking day. He sighs and walks to the dressing room, waiting for Evan there. Just as he hoped, Evan walks not too long later, looking tired as shit. He smiles a little and collapses onto the couch next to Lui, leaning on him. "I'm tired." He sighs.

Lui considers telling him. "Me too."

"Are you okay, Lu?" Evan asks, sitting up and looking at Lui seriously. His voice is usually high and chipper, but now it's low and somber.

Lui sniffles and wraps his arms around himself. "Ohm... Ohm was killed..." He whispers, stiffening and looking away. Then Evan gathers him up in a hug, and he starts crying again, and Evan starts crying, so they sit there for god knows how long just like that. Crying.

They clean themselves up and Evan gets changed, then they're ready to go to Evan's place. But Evan starts worrying, and voicing his worry, and Lui gets an idea. They both climb into David's car, and David notices Lui trickster face immediately, it was the first look he ever saw Lui wear.

"David, Evan is kinda scared he's going to be next." Lui begins, and David raises an eyebrow. Why would he? Is there something, someone, he should know about? "So, he was wondering, since neither of us are exactly fighters or know how to shoot a gun... could we stay with you?"

David's eyes widen a little bit. Sure, there's no rule 100% against it but it surely isn't something everyone does. Then again, they're both small and scared and... Ohm was alone for an hour before he was killed. David swallows and feels his face heating up. "There's not a reason for me to say no. I'd be protecting you after all." He says.

Lui smiles and looks over the shoulder of his seat, speaking to Evan about nothin. David does his best not to listen in, but his previous belief that Lui is quite motherly is only reinforced. They arrive at his home, nothing fancy but certainly quite fitting for the city's best detective. Lui and Evan look around like toddlers, which makes David smile more then it should.

"Oh, I should have asked, do either of you want a change of clothes?" David asks, hanging his and Lui's jacket.

"I got all I need." Evan smiles, holding up his work bag. "I always carry extra clothes. Thanks, though."

"Ah... I doubt I'd be allowed in my house right now, actually." Lui frowns, wrapping his arms around himself.

David frowns, patting Lui's shoulder. "It's okay, I can find something for you to sleep in and we'll get you fresh clothes tomorrow." He smiles, trying to be comforting. Lui just nods, and then he yawns.

David chuckles and leads them both upstairs, to the rooms. David blushes when he remembers a second too late, there's only two rooms. He offers to sleep on the couch since they're his guests but Lui says he doesn't want to sleep alone and doesn't mind sharing. When he says that, Evan smirks a little.
