Wonder of Disgust

Fun Facts: In the movie Inside Out they also considered the characters Hope, Pride, Schadenfreude (taking joy in people’s pain), Love and well Surprise. 

They based the personalities of all the emotions on the Seven Dwarfs, so Grumpy is literally Anger, lol, that explains so much..think he’ll hurt me now…  This story takes place between the night, before Riley runs away, so spoilers up ahead, taking place Fear/Disgust enjoy.  I’m doing this with the bloody flu..I hate the flu.What do you guys think of this little drabble series, want to see a Gravity falls/Inside Out drabble?

Fear tiptoed up by his door, peering out into the open hallway, desperately trembling visibly hoping that nobody was still up now..well incept the one at dream duty..he bit his fingers and edged his back onto the half open doorway.

This is a bad idea..she`ll hear you..what are you doing anyway? He thought, nervously biting his lips, he sighed and pushed against his for some reason heavy door, “Hello?” The raw nerve called out, stepping quickly he slammed the door quietly behind him, “Hello..guys…anybody?”

He was so fidgety that his whole body felt like all the particles would just fly apart at any second..Could that even happen? His thoughts surged as he stepped lightly on the stairs. Please, please don’t let her hear me…

The shadows on the walls, eyed him warily as he made his way down, stepping slowly as he could, squeak..squeak…damn why they have to be so noisy..did she hear him?

Fear let his guard down, probably not his best idea ever, something in his heart if he had one told him that this was wrong..what if one of them found out he tried.. The large glowing bulb placed in the console lit up his purple eyes, as he reached carefully over.

“Come out you..this is a bad idea…” we should never had to think this way, he spread his rapidly shaking fingers along the dim bulb hoping to pull it out, a little bit..anything would be better than this..why was he the only one to see, was it even in the other’s natures?

“Come on., just one little movement..”, Fear missed the movement right behind him as a figure stepped out of the other door, “Just one more time…”, he almost got it out he was sure till the thing nearly tightened around the console and he was pushed back, as if rejected.

Something was hardly wrong..the raw nerve stared with terror filled eyes till a hand fell onto his shoulder, “AHHH!”

He jumped just as Disgust moved her hand off of him, “What are you doing out here?” She waved a hand towards the console, as she moved her way to the chair opening a quiet dream for Riley, “Well, explain yourself?”

“Hehe..I just..thought of saying..uh..hi!  So uh..hi!”, Fear grabbed his collar in his hands, but he never was a good liar, and that translated to Riley too, as none of them were very good at hiding their own thoughts really, “So..how you doing tonight..”, Fear tried changing the subject he really tired..you had to give him points for that, right?

“So your down here for…”, her voice cut him like a knife and he was sure she could see what he was thinking written in bold on his face, “Wait..you were trying to grab this?” Her hands went for the bulb lightly, “Why?!” Fear yelped at the glare she sent him, like a shark waiting to eat you, though he never seen a shark he was sure she really could have sacred one away right now..

Well? I’m waiting!” Disgust tapped her foot, in annoyance and gave a quiet huff, “You think we went over broad?”

The question surprised him, for she did say it, did she not? He moved his hands to hide his face, “Well..yes”, he squeaked, “I uh..”, the silence just leaked into the room, making him scramble to take a breathe in and out.

“Yeah, what were we thinking, me and Anger..we’re not Joy..how could we be anyways?” Disgust said in a quiet voice unlike her, Fear placed his hands beside himself and stared hard at her.

“Are you scared..?” He asked, but it didn’t sound harsh or even sarcastic, it sounded worried, “I just..uh..wnated to make sure..we could go back..you know..before this all happened..”, he laid his hands on the console slowly.

“Remember when you tried to quit!” Her green eyes went to look at the tube that all memories went, “It rejected you...”

“Yeah, the ‘coward’s way out’, I thought if Joy and Sadness could do it..leave..it’s been so stressful without both of them here..it’s too well..feels like everything’s falling apart inside out, somethings missing..something we need together..we were set here in for a reason..”, Fear stammered but he felt almost relieved at omitting this.

“We need them..I’m not Joy..I don’t know if I can be happy…” I certainly can’t make Riley happy..she thought sadly.

“Sure you’re not Joy..but you are you, even though that sounds corny as hell..”, he felt almost different here with her, like nothing could make him scared.

You’re sure acting strange about this..!” Her eyes rolled at him from the side.

“I suppose I am..I’m still freaked right out..who wouldn’t be..anything could happen to her now, she stole her mom’s credit card..she lied…to her parents..we’ve never lied before…”, his hands barely wrung themselves together as a few stray tears of stress wilted down his face.

“We never have…till we made that choice...” Disgust pointed to the bulb, “Not till we let ourselves fall into Anger’s reign...” She sat down by his chair, looking distressed for once, shaking visibly.

“Anger scares me a lot too…” she could see the visible flinching after he said that, “he acres me everything he blows up...” he chuckled almost fearing that the red brick heard him then.

“What do we do?” Disgust said softly, now she was lying in his lap, his eyes trailed to her long eye lashes, her soft glowing green particles, her shiny green hair...

Focus, this is not about you…he decided that he would lean into her, he could hear her sob quietly so that no one heard her, “Are you okay?” Fear looked into her huge green eyes with a look of concern mixed with extreme worry, “No really are you okay!?”

It was like time stooped then, her breathes and his mingling into each other, and a soft sigh filled the room, “Fear, have you ever thought you were doing the wrong thing?”

“Almost every day”, Fear said, shaking again, as was his norm, “What’s going to happen tomorrow?”

“I don’t know...” she spoke as if under water, “I just don’t...”

“I hate the unknown..it’s just so..well..big and scary and you have no way of knowing when it will happen..or what will come..what happens if we’re making a mistake..  What happens if Joy and Sadness never reach here..what happens if we’re stuck like this..”, his lips trembled, as she gazed up at the raw nerve, a sorta thoughtful smile on her lips, “What do I have something on my face?!”

“No just shut up for once, okay”, she was teasing him..that was good? Disgust did something he never thought she’ll ever do, she kissed him, not on the cheek but full on the lips, he let himself pull himself into the kiss, taking the moment as is. 

When they pulled apart she looked a little better, but still shaking, “So what now?” He asked, hoping to hold her hands again.

“I guess we watch and wait and see..maybe they’ll make it before…”, she couldn’t finish, “Wait up with me?” Disgust said, so quietly he thought she hadn’t spoken at all.

“Sure..just the two of us..and whatever happens now..I hope they make it back..to stop all this”, it scares me so much..to think she’s running away..where would she go..how could Anger do this..why did we let this happen…? We need both of you two, so please come back soon, please..

Wiping at his tearing eyes, he clenched his hands in deep worry, “Because we need you…”

Somewhere on the stairway a bulky reddish figure paced, his hands shaking in not rage, but shock, stress planted his face in grief as he heard what they had said, “This was my idea..”, Anger roughly rubbed the back of his head, “What if I was wrong..”, and with that the red emotion went back to bed, but he didn’t sleep…he hadn’t for three days.

This was all his fault…again…

What could he do?

He was wrong..and he couldn’t fix it this time… 

 

Some spoilers to the movie ahead, Fear/Disgust, when the thought of running away gets to Fear, he finds he's not the only one who that idea is bothering...
