[she's pushed him to having his hair braided back for now, which is a sign as to how much he didn't want that pink goop in his hair at all. instead, it's been mealtime, and because Zero is a baby who doesn't want to go out, Merlin has resorted to bringing her some food when he notices she's not there.
she wouldn't do the same for him, so this isn't fair. this is selfish behavior.]
Yes. Do you want me to feed you, princess?
[he's being a shit and it's a good thing he's several feet away from her so he can't get smacked.]
[ Zero grumbles something ugly but untillegiable and then she slowly sits up, blanket wrapped around her like a cocoon. ]
Shut up– or I'll bite your hand off again, and this time I won't fuck you to make the ouchies go away.
[ She hops off her bunk. ]
Now gimme!
[ And before he can offer it to her she's snatched it out of his hands and has begun ravaging the plate, only stopping to amble over to his bunk so she can sit down. ]
Hope you're not expecting a thank you for the room service.
[what the hell. he's going to go sit on her bed, then, because she's stealing his and getting crumbs on it. he should sleep in her bed to prove a point, actually, and lies down.]
Don't worry, I'm just adding it to your running tab.
[ Zero rolls her eyes but finishes her meal in relative silence. When she's all done she wipes her hands on the sheets of his mattress and stands, tugging on his hair so let him know nap time's over (for him, anyway). ]
Get up, I'm going back to sleep.
[ Which is about all she's done for the past week. ]
[he's not moving. she can sleep in that bed if she wants. she can rip out a chunk of his hair. but all five feet ten inches of him is there and not stirring at all. this is her punishment for being filthy in his bed.]
[it's the muscles he has under his robes, the secret body that exists. but at pulling him, he sits up, trying to grab onto the ladder so he won't be fully displaced.]
Don't you dare! She makes sure I eat right, and she's nice to me!
[that means he has to eat space goop. and god, how he hates space goop.]
Mine?! You're the one that just broke the bed for no reason!
[he didn't do anything but lie down? why is this now his fault, as he's now half trapped in the blanket and his own robes, struggling like a fluffy moron to pull himself out.]

Yeah? What do I owe you then?
[ She also definitely narrows her eyes when he settles down onto HER bunk. ]

[which could be tomorrow, could be in a week. could be never. who knows, with him?
also he's stretching out on her bunk in full. hardly cozy, but he's acting like it is.]

She throws herself up and over onto the bed, clambering over Merlin so she can sit on his stupid ass. ]
Change your mind?

[is this meant to be a deterrent? this is quite nice, actually. he's more comfortable for it.]

(Though truthfully she hasn't felt anything this lively in days now).
Zero scowls, hopping up once to jump on him (roughly) before she gets off of him altogether. ]
Fine! No one fucking gets it then.
[ She grabs the edge of the mattress, grunting in earnest as she digs her feet into the ground and tries to wiggle it out from under him.
He's heavier than he looks. ]
I'm going tell Konoha to stop feeding you, fucking–
[ She grits her teeth, tugs harder. ]
– whale!

Enjoy it while it lasts!
[ Zero readjusts her grip, wrapping her fingers around the mattress and frame both.
She gives it another hard pull and what do you know.
The whole damn bunk bed comes crashing down.
It's loud, painful and she may or may not have slammed her head against it in the process.
From beneath the bed, disheveled mattresses and sheets, a groan can be heard. ]
..I'm gonna' kill you.
[ There's some shuffling from beneath the wreckage, and eventually she clears away enough carnage to frown at him through it. ]
What the FUCK is your problem?
