Shoe problems? This is why I scorn shoes! And clothing in general!

CITIZENS OF THE CITY! GAZE UPON MY BEAUTIFUL BODY AND FORGET YOUR WORRIES!

[Private to Umi]

Miss Umi. May I have a word with you?

[Private to Marron]

Where are you?

I took Puddles out for walk. I'm on my way back now.

Private

[eternal5thwheel]

Good. We need to talk.

Private

[eastern_magic]

Is something wrong?

Private

[eternal5thwheel]

Come home, love.

[eastern_magic]

[A couple minutes later Marron steps in to the apartment and sets Puddles down as he looks for Gateau. Concern is all over his face.]

Gateau?

[eternal5thwheel]

Marron.

[As soon as he sees his lover, the smaller man is scooped up and carried upstairs and deposited on the bed. Where Gateau promptly locks the door.]

You are staying here until you learn not to take care of everyone.

[eastern_magic]

[Marron can only stare at his boyfriend in shock. This is not what he was expecting.]

What?

[eternal5thwheel]

You are expending too much of your time and energy taking care of others again. You are staying here until you learn to take care of yourself.

[eastern_magic]

[And he frowns.]

Gateau, how will locking me in here accomplish that?

[eternal5thwheel]

[There's a pause as Gateau clearly hasn't thought this out.]

Well, it gives you time with me! And maybe a few hours of gazing at my beautiful body will convince you!

[eastern_magic]

[Marron sighs.]

A few hours?

[eternal5thwheel]

[No. Gateau's in serious mode now.]

You are wearing yourself out.

[eastern_magic]

[Blink, blink.]

But I'm fine.

[eternal5thwheel]

No, you are not love. I can see it.

[eastern_magic]

[Doesn't say anything for a little bit.]

Gateau...

[eternal5thwheel]

Gateau looked up, concerned.

"Yes, beautiful?"
