Summary
“Theo, you puked up Mom’s amazing pot roast because that movie was triggering. We are not watching it again. We’re watching something else.”
“Okay…” Theo says warily. “What do you suggest?”
“It’s your turn to choose.”
Theo considers that for a moment. He sneaks a glance down at Pudgy. “What do you think, Pudge?” And then without waiting for Liam to do the Pudgy voice, Theo pitches up his own tone and wiggles Pudgy’s snout as he says, “I don’t know, Theo, I think Liam owes you for this one. I think Liam should let you watch the movie you’ve been asking so long to see.”
When Theo turns back to Liam, he’s serving Theo a flat look. “No,” says Liam.
“But, but--Theo didn’t have a childhood,” Pudgy-Theo says, turning to Liam and lifting his snout imploringly to the werewolf.

Or: When Theo gets triggered because of a Halloween movie that reminds him of the Dread Doctors, Liam brings out the big (fluffy) guns to comfort him.

Bookmark Notes:
Liam raises his eyes to meet Theo’s upside down as the chimera stares down at him with a sheen over his gaze. It turns out that it was Theo’s socked feet that broke the impact of Liam’s skull against the floor. Liam swallows and opens his mouth, probably going for a casual hey, or even a lame what’s up, but what comes out instead is, “You’re shaking.”
Theo is. He’s got one hand still wrapped around the door handle, tightening now so the skin stretches white over his knuckles, but the other hand hanging loosely at his side is trembling.
“Terribly sorry about that,” Theo snarks, but there’s no more bite left to it.
Liam reaches up and wraps his hands around Theo’s ankles. He tugs. “C’mon, come over here and talk to me.”
