Summary

Set just after Episode 3 ("Station Management"). Written for H/C bingo on Dreamwidth, prompt "telepathic trauma".

Cecil doesn't quite make it to the door in time to escape Station Management. For reasons of their own, they let him live, but the radio host is still left wounded, shaken, and hurt, trapped in a nightmare of torture as punishment for asking for letters.

Carlos, who realized weeks ago that he has the survival instinct of a lemming, comes running to his rescue, and lends Cecil a shoulder to lean on and a floor to sleep on for the night. A lot goes unsaid after Cecil wakes up, because neither one of them is good at finding the right words when face-to-face. But Carlos finds himself with a lot to think about, and Cecil winds up thanking Carlos the only way he knows how.
