Sora, in light of seeing you almost nail your own hand to a board yesterday, I want you to stop working on the boat for awhile and give yourself some time off.

You're wearing yourself out with that job of yours. There's no need for extra work on top of that. I have plenty of help, so don't worry about it.

Riku, I'm okay! That was just a mistake yesterday, I'm fine!

[kaikishyoku]

Don't lie.

[unlocking_paths]

... Okay, fine. But I don't have to sit out entirely. I'll - I'll just go to sleep earlier or something.

[kaikishyoku]

No. You're going to sit out for awhile until you're well-rested.

Maybe you should look into another job. Having different schedules all of the time sucks.

[unlocking_paths]

Riku~ ::whines.::

My job isn't too hard! It's fine! But having different schedules does suck.

[kaikishyoku]

Shush. -unwavering.-

Do you even like your job? -eyebrow raise.-

I've seen postings for other jobs around town. You should at least take a look.

[unlocking_paths]

I like it - I like the horses. It's just hot, that's all.

[kaikishyoku]

Well ... as long as you're ok with it. You just seem so tired all of the time.

Don't overwork yourself, Sora. Or I'll just tie you down in bed.

[unlocking_paths]

I can handle it!

Haha, you'll have to catch me first.

[kaikishyoku]

...

-jumps at him.-

[unlocking_paths]

::jumped on.:: Ah! Hey!

::wasn't expecting that.::

[kaikishyoku]

-pins him down easily.-

You were saying?

[unlocking_paths]

::squirm.:: That was a cheap shot.

[kaikishyoku]

-remains passive for a long moment, but then cracks a smile.- You're too easy, Sora.

-folds his arms over Sora's chest, resting his chin in them, clearly having no intention of moving anytime soon.- So. If I have to make you rest like this, I will. You're not really comfortable, though. Too skinny.

[unlocking_paths]

Am not! ::insists, but can't deny he fell right into Riku's trap.::

I'm not supposed to be comfortable because you're not supposed to lay on me! ::doesn't try to push Riku off, though. pulls his arms up and folds them behind his head.::

And you don't have to worry, Riku, really. I look fine, don't I? ::grin.:: Being tired never hurt anyone.

[kaikishyoku]

You look like a vampire. -says dryly. studies Sora's eyes, really not liking the circles under them.-

Let's strike a deal. How about we switch jobs for awhile? I'll talk to Sephiroth -- I'm sure he won't mind. And patrolling's real easy. You'll like it, I bet. And since you have that great sword I got you, you'll have no trouble.

What do you say? -prods him lightly with a finger, not ready to take no for an answer.-
