Seasonal Depression

Request for someone over on ao3

Washington rolled over, picking up his phone.

No new messages.

Great.

He knows someone in his mind that it's not because people hate him, he's not the reason for it, but his stupid brain is bri and a downer again. More so then usual. Coupled with the whole 'feeling like all his energy had been sapped from his body' things kinds fucking sucked.

Was he making an understatment again? Probably, but eh.

He opened up the groupchat again, despite his brain screaming that he'll just be annoying and no one cares, and typed a small message.

(Wash) Eyyyy seasonal depression time

He rolled back over, openung tik tok and aimlessly scrolling through video after video. After a few minutes he got a notification.

(Oregano) oh hey same!

He smiled slightly. Of course, at least, his twin understood. Probably because they suffered the same thing.

He yawned. He should probably sleep he was so tired. Not like he had anything to do today really so why not.

He still just went back to tik tok and kept scrolling.

It did not take long to get a few more pings. Dull curiosity made him check it, and he found some more messages from Oregan's boyfriend and a very concerned DadC.

(Human Torch) Sweetheart- want Mr to bring the ice cream and cheesy movies? You are getting hugs

(Human Torch) Who changed my nickname again.

(Oregano) yes pls-

(Fed) Are you ok? Do you need a hug? Anything else?

(Wash) Hug sounds nice

(Oregano) u don't have to but sure

(Oregano) wait

(Oregano) cali

(Human Torch) Yeah?

(Oregano) can i maybe bring wash and dad?

(Cali) Yeah of course I think we have enough snacks

Washington smiled, a small warmth filling him that he hadn't quite felt in a while. Sure he'd have to deal with Cali and his brother being all lovey dovey but company sounded really nice right now.

He sat up, swinging his legs over the side of his bed to get up. Apparently though that wasn't going to be an option because his door was opened by none other then his dad, who promptly picked him up and started carrying him away lije when he was a child.

Wash had no idea how.

They weren't children and the man barely takes care of himself, he doubted the fed could have the strength. Maybe it was Secret Parental Strength. Who knows anymore he wasn't complaining.

They get to Oregan's room, and he hugs his brother tightly.

"Hey! You stole my boyfriend!" Cali complains, clearly joking.

Wash sticks his tongue out at him.

"You stole my brother first."

It didn't take long for them to be smushed together, all curled up in a pile eating ice cream and making fun of old shitty movies. It was the best either Oregan or Washington had felt in a while.
