Just plant me in the dirt.

[ she sounds absolutely exhausted for the second week in the row? yet again, everything happens so much. she's tired fam. ]

[goalsides]

You're not a tree. [but he does reach over to carefully pat her head.] ...you feeling any better at all?

[more calm, he means.]

[alitaba]

[ the void of emotion probably says a lot tbh ]

Eh. Maybe the sunlight will do me some good.

[ she blinks tiredly ]

Photosynthesis gives you serotonin, right?

[goalsides]

Good thing it's spring. [...he shrugs.] I've never photosynthesized, but maybe that's true. We could all use a little boost right now, couldn't we?

[alitaba]

Yeah, definitely. [ ... ] Either that or we just make group ice cream sundaes until we're numb with brain freeze

[goalsides]

While I can't say I totally support brain freeze, there's nothing wrong with comfort food. We could easily drag a bunch of ice cream and toppings back to the dorm for everybody.

[...but he sighs.]

Think it'd fix things for long?

[alitaba]

[ a snort ]

Maybe it'll numb everything for a couple of hours.

[goalsides]

A couple hours is still more hours than we had the first time. But maybe we should see how we feel in the morning before doing that?

[alitaba]

Mm.... I guess.

[ she is unbothered either way ]

[goalsides]

[...]

...what can I do for you right now, Futaba-chan?

[ she holds her arms out for a hug ]

[goalsides]

[oh...

...well. he would have to be a monster to deny her a hug so yeah. he will provide a hug.



if he hadn't just watched her fall apart a few hours ago he would be Suspicious but. no. this is fine.]

[alitaba]

[ sometimes you have a really shitty day and all you really want is a hug.

just don't mind the quiet sniffs when she burrows into his arms. ]

[goalsides]

[:c yeah, okay...definitely hug time. he shifts a little so he can let her lean against him and give her all the time she needs. he's apparently not going to move because big bro mode has activated.]

[alitaba]

[ i guess they're just stuck like this until she falls asleep because whoo boy, is this poor gremlin worn out. ]

[goalsides]

[rip in sneep gremlin. it's fine, whenever he does notice she's officially fallen asleep he'll at least take her back to her own bed instead of the couch. goodnight everybody.]
