[One thing Rourke didn't really care about was down time. Typically, when he was in between jobs, there was plenty to do as far as the upkeep of equipment, searching for new work, and just general duties that he could keep himself occupied during the free time.

Whoa, careful! [Thankfully, she didn't slip too far. Aladdin breathed a sigh of relief, then started to scramble nimbly up the tree himself.] I'll come up and help you down.

[The answer came from Aladdin, standing at the foot of the tree and looking quizzically up at Kairi.]
What were you doing up there, anyway?

And yeah, you're telling me.
[Oh, this guy was good at the tree climbing thing. Heck, it took her a long time to get to the top, and he's making out like a squirrel.]
