Summary
“We’ll tell nobody. We’ll let them make their own conclusions about what happened to us.” Charlie softly reassured him as he gently worked through a particularly tangled clump of blood and some other mysterious substance stubbornly clinging to Ranboo’s hair.
“We’ll get you home, Ranboo.” Charlie swore to them, “It’s over. You don’t have to be brave anymore. It’s okay.” Ranboo hesitated, before slowly pulling away, and Charlie could only let them.
“You can’t go back either.” Ranboo called him out, and Charlie wavered, “Please.” Ranboo sounded devastated as he begged, “Please, Charlie. I can’t- I can’t lose you too…”
Charlie forced a weak smile on his face, feeling a sort of disdainful irony as he held up his pinky to the other. “I pinky swear, I won’t go back there.”
It was only when Ranboo wasn’t looking did Charlie drop the crossed fingers behind his back.
(AKA: A "What-if" where Ranboo and Charlie escape Showfall and deal with the turbulent journey that comes with recovery all while trying to keep the horrible things which happened to them a secret for the sake of their own safety.)
