1 3 or 4 for the hlvrai roommates prompts? <3

1. There is a blackout in the whole building and now we stumble through our apartment, trying to find some candles.

Tommy and Benrey had been playing video games when it happened. Benrey was finally about to win their first Skullgirls match against Tommy when the lights in the living room flickered and then went out, taking the television with it. Benrey groaned and slumped back against the couch.

“Bro, come on, using powers is cheating.”

“That wasn’t me!” Tommy protested, putting down the controller and looking around. “I think- it must be a power outage, look outside.”

Benrey followed his pointing finger out the window and sure enough, the building next to theirs had gone dark. Before Benrey could comment on it, however, there was a loud thunk from Gordon’s room. Tommy and Benrey looked at each other for a moment, confused, then realization spread across Tommy’s face.

“Oh no-” He jumped to his feet, wringing his hands anxiously. “Benrey, stay here, okay?”

“Huh? Uh, okay.” Benrey stayed put on the couch and watched Tommy rush over to Gordon’s door, unsure what was going on.

Tommy knocked lightly on the door and raised his voice just a little. “Gordon? It’s me, it’s Tommy. I’m gonna- I’m gonna come inside, alright?” He opened the door slowly and slid inside, shutting it behind himself.

Benrey stared at the now closed door, then drifted their gaze over to the window again. Man, it really got dark out there when all the lights were out, huh? They beeped out a few bubbles of bored Sweet Voice and tried not to pay attention to the hushed voices muffled behind Gordon’s door.

The door opened again an indeterminate amount of time later, and Benrey cut their Sweet Voice rendition of the Sims 3 theme short. Tommy emerged from the room, closely followed by Gordon, bundled in the quilt from his bed. Both of them had their phone flashlights on, and they illuminated the room just enough to reveal that Gordon looked like he’d been put through the wringer. It finally slotted into place in Benrey’s brain why Gordon might not be the happiest about a blackout.

“I’m going to look for candles and flashlights,” Tommy said, using his gentlest tone of voice. “Benrey can you, um, can you do some Sweet Voice to make the room brighter?”

“Not blue,” Gordon cut in sharply.

“Not blue,” Tommy repeated with a nod.

“Yeah, I can do not blue. You want, uhhhhh, yellow? I got yellow. Maybe some orange,” Benrey said, pronouncing orange with a soft ‘g’ in an attempt to make Gordon laugh. He didn’t laugh, but his mouth did quirk into an almost smile, which Benrey counted as a win.

“Yellow is fine, man.” Gordon shuffled over to sit on the other end of the couch. Benrey twinged with guilt when they noticed Gordon didn’t immediately lean in for cuddles, like he had been more often lately. They nodded and sang out a long string of buttercup yellow, filling the room with golden light.

Benrey eventually paused for breath and gave Gordon a worried look. “You good, dude?” They asked in their most concerned variety of monotone. Gordon sighed and pulled the quilt tighter over his shoulders.

“Yeah. Blackouts just suck,” He said. The light from the Sweet Voice reflected off the metal of his prosthetic. Benrey looked away and continued singing yellow.

Eventually, Tommy had lined every countertop, table, and shelf with candles and flashlights, and the room was almost as bright as it was before the lights went out. He approached the other two on the couch, holding several decks of cards like an offering.

“We can’t play video games or use the TV for, uh, obvious reasons,” He said, sitting opposite them at the coffee table and placing the cards down. “But I thought we could play cards! Have I- Maybe I can teach you guys how to play nuts?”

Benrey muffled a snort in their hands, and Gordon raised an eyebrow, a smile pulling at his lips. “Play what?” He asked.

“Nuts! Like, uh, like ‘aw nuts!’” Tommy said, adding a defeated hand gesture for good measure.

“Sure, dude.” A full grin had appeared on Gordon’s face by now.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Freeman, were you thinking of something else?” Tommy asked with exaggerated innocence.

“Yeah, Freeman, what were you thinking of?” Benrey added, unable to resist ribbing Gordon a little. “Get your mind out of the gutter.”

“Listen, can you blame me? This guy’s over here spitting out balls-” Gordon gestured dramatically at Benrey, his tone having returned to its typical state of exasperated amusement. Benrey threw their head back and laughed, cackle interspersed with more bubbles of light.

By the time Tommy had explained the rules and the game began speeding up, Gordon was more or less back to himself, his quilt dropped on his lap so he could smack Benrey’s hands out of the way to lay down cards. Tommy, predictably, won by a landslide, and Benrey’s score was so deep in the negatives it should’ve been mathematically impossible, but they didn’t mind too much. They just flopped to the side with a groan and peered out the window.

“Hey,” they said, interrupting Tommy’s shuffling. “They got stars. Outside? Let’s go outside, yes please?”

Gordon and Tommy glanced at each other and shrugged, grabbing flashlights and following Benrey as they shuffled out onto the small balcony attached to their apartment. Without all the light pollution, the sky was full of stars they couldn’t normally see. Gordon’s shoulder brushed against Benrey’s as they all peered up at the sky, and Benrey could hear Gordon take in a deep breath and slowly let it out. He leaned gently against Benrey’s side and outstretched his opposite hand to interlace his fingers with Tommy’s.

“Thanks, you guys,” Gordon said, a vulnerable expression on his face. Tommy smiled and squeezed his hand, and Benrey leaned up to kiss his cheek.

“Of course,” Tommy said like there was never any other option. Benrey didn’t say anything, just hummed their agreement.

The three of them stood pressed against each other, watching the stars until the city slowly lit up again.
