Regressors: Drake

Little space age: 5

Caretaker: Josh

Age: 17 

Ship?: No.

Plot: Drake gets sick while in little space.

Josh and his stepbrother Drake were what one would call, "polar opposites." They had almost nothing in common. Drake was a little. He liked to slip into little space from time to time and Josh was his care taker. One day, while they were playing, Drake sneezed.

Josh: Woah, dude. That was one sneeze. Are you sick?

Drake: *nods*

Josh: Let's get you settled on the couch, buddy. I'll grab some medicine and a blanket for you.

Drake: sniffles Th-thanks, Joshie.

Josh guided Drake to the couch, tucking him in with a soft, warm blanket. He quickly went to the kitchen to fetch some medicine and a glass of water. As he rummaged through the cabinet, he thought about how much he had come to care for Drake. Despite their differences, he felt a strong sense of responsibility for his stepbrother.

Returning to the living room, Josh handed the medicine to Drake, who took it obediently. Drake's eyes were droopy, and Josh could tell he was feeling pretty miserable.

Josh: Alright, buddy. How about we watch some cartoons? I think some laughter might do you good.

Drake: weak smile Can we watch "Adventure Time"?

Josh: You got it.

Josh turned on the TV and found Drake's favorite show. As the familiar theme song played, Drake's face lit up a little, and Josh felt a warm sense of accomplishment. He sat down beside Drake, letting his little brother lean against him.

Josh: You know, it's okay to lean on me when you need to. I'm always here for you.

Drake: murmurs I know. You're the best, Joshie.

As they watched the cartoons together, Josh thought about how much his relationship with Drake had changed. Maybe they were polar opposites, but they had found a way to connect, and that made all the difference. He made a mental note to make some chicken soup later, just like their mom used to make. For now, he was content to sit there, providing comfort and support to the little brother he had grown to love.
