✦ " The warmth is overwhelming me. "
Planetlord sighed, leaning against a nearby tree as he stared down; Standing under the cold shade of the leaves above; He started this silly journey to find resources at night when it was still cold, but now the sun was basically burning hot.
And they couldn't handle the heat that well, so they've been delaying the inevitable for as long as they could; Walking under the shade, or going underground..
..They would've used the nether roof, but they'd basically be throwing their guts up by the time they got home; And NOBODY wanted to deal with them, probably.
So, Planet simply pushed himself off of the tree and continued walking; Staying in the shade until he reached the end of the forest; He'll be fine, it's not that far, he can handle it.
" If I end up sick, I swear.. " Planet murmured, taking a step forward as he basked in the warmth; At least it was somewhat comforting, at least for a while.. Planet began to head back in the general direction of where the LaLa Legions base was.
Unaware of their AMAZING foreshadowing skills (≡^∇^≡)
★☆★
Planetlord had been walking towards the base for a while, beginning to search for a nearby forest as they began finding the warmth uncomfortable; Extremely uncomfortable.
They took their communicator out of the pocket of their hoodie, clicking Tab to see who was online; And apparently their luck had run out because none of the LaLa Legion members were online, leaving them to walk back alone.
They're definitely gonna throw their guts up eitherway.
Then a great idea came to mind.
Planet switched to discord, hesitating for a couple of Seconds before he sent Spoke a message.

A smile crawled onto his face, stuffing his communicator back into the pocket of his hoodie, he wasted no time to try and find a cold area..
He spent 15 minutes looking around.
" Oh my fucking God, I'm dead. " Planet groaned, ending up back where they were before; Already beginning to feel nauseous, they quickly built a small area(?). It was better than nothing.
Planet sat down under the shade, leaning against the blocks they'd place; It wasn't helping, they felt like they were getting tortured. They bent their knees, wrapping their arms around it as they pressed it against their chest; Wondering if Spoke was even on his way.
Planet grabbed his communicator again, pressing Tab as he prayed to the Gods that Spoke was online; Oh, wait, he is.

[ Pretend their whispering to each other, I'm too lazy to write all that.. ]

Planetlord gave up, closing his communicator as he rested his head on his knees; An excruciating headache was torturing him, and now, Spoke was gonna be LATE!!
★☆★
Spoke had been running for a while; he finally found the damn biome that Planetlord was in (and almost got lost three times) but finally, he was there!!
Spoke looked up and down, left and right in a rush to find him. His eyes widened once they made eye contact with him, and made the realization.
He ran over to Planetlord, and placed his hand on their forehead; only to realize that they were already extremely hot.
" How long have you been out here?? "
" I don't know.. " Planet muttered, their entire body burning hot; Contrast to how it usually would be.
Planet lifted their head up slightly, wanting to speak, though their words were stuck in their throat; Planet could only cough, their throat felt dry.
" Jeez..do you have water or something, I'm burning. "
He added, his voice was quiet and hoarse; Causing Spoke to wince, quickly pulling a water bottle out of his inventory as he handed it towards the other.
It took a couple seconds to register, but Planetlord eventually grabbed the water bottle; Opening it and drinking the water, FINALLY, something somewhat cold. It wasn't enough though.
Planet lowered the bottle away from his mouth, coughing a bit as he wiped the drops of water with his sleeve. " Can you carry me home or something..? I don't know, I'm just- I'm just not feeling that well. "
..That was obvious.
Spoke rolled their eyes and nodded, standing up straight. He wrapped his arms around him and scooped him up. " Damn, you're light. "
Spoke lifted them up, holding them close as they started the long trip back home. There were a couple close calls with mobs, but Spoke knew the correct and easy route; so they'd be fine.. Hopefully- If Planetlord didn't die.
★☆★
The two had managed to get home, and by some miracle; Planetlord didn't die! Anyways, jokes aside, at least he's alive.
Planetlord was finally in his bed, a blanket wrapped over him as he leaned against the bedframe; Taking deep breaths as he held himself.
After a few seconds of silence, he looked over at Spoke; Muttering something. " Thanks. "
Ironically the sun had begun to set AND it started raining, where was that when Planetlord was turning into a raisin??
Spoke nodded and sighed, stretching after he set Planetlord down on the bed.. " Don't mention it, Planet. "
Spoke pulled up a chair and sat down on it, looking at the rain as it pelted against the window. He'd have to get Planetlord into some normal clothes after he cools down.
He let out a soft hum, glancing at Planetlord every few moments to make sure he was alright..
.....
" You suck, Spoke. "
" Fuck you too, Planet. "
