[These are one of those moments where Holiday is SMILING FOREVER.]

[So, in the recent aftermath of a certain conversation, she figures that it would only be the right thing if she asked first. After all, she asked Six... after Xavier... moved in- BUT THIS WAS DIFFERENT

[Six sees this locked post and decides to head downstairs. He might as well find out what this mess is all about. That smile can only mean bad things.]

Holiday, wha'sss going on?

[doc_holi]

[SHOULDN'T YOU BE IN BED? No, that wouldn't go well.]

[SMILE.]

[SHRUG.]

Curious is all.

[Frown deepens a little.]

[Correction: Last time she gave that smile, Xavier was living here.]

[She won't say that.]

[She'll just... smile... to the guy that's glaring at her... and looking through her like glass...]

.... They're free...

[That helped a lot.]

[He sighs, doing his best not to lean against the bannister.]

How many?

[Action]

[doc_holi]

[GASP! He's considering!]

Just one.

[She holds up the finger and everything.]

[Course... he has two to give away... No. No, Holiday. One. Just one.]

[Six gives a quiet sigh.]

To ansssssswer yer quesssshun, no, I'm not allergic. Not allergic. Not...[He shakes his head to break the loop.]

[doc_holi]

[Is that a yes? It sounded like a yes!]

[Her infinite smile falters a little, though. Happy times deflated.]

You're still looping. And slurring.

[If he doesn't get over this within the next couple of days, she's going to seriously start worrying.]

[Action]

[sixthdeadliest]

[He'd probably get over it faster if he'd just stay put. He hates just lying there.]

I'll be all righ'.

[Not really a jack because comment not here]

[roninknight]

[If Six had said the Dreaded 'I'm Fine', he would have discovered Drift pouncing down upon him like the, uh, the fist of a pouncy god. Or something. Let's just say he should be glad he doesn't have to discover what that feels like.]

You keep moving around too much. You need to stay still for... just a little while.

[Really. Just a little while.]

[She'll get him back to his room later, but for right now-]

So... about the dog... Was that a yes?

[BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE IS TOTALLY COOL WITH IT.]

I shhhouldn' be jusss lyin' aroun'. It'sss no' ussseful a' all.

[He couldn't just lie there. He had to be up, moving, doing something.]

...Sss yer houssse. Jusss train i'.

[Squee! HUGS. Yes, Six. This is the second hug so far. Be confused. She doesn't really care.]

And you'll be even more useless if you don't try to heal.

[She pulls back from him, giving him her big smile with a hint of pleading.]

Just don't make me worry more over you, okay? Please, just try to get better.

[Action]

[sixthdeadliest]

[Shifts uncomfortably. Why all the hugging, Holiday?]

Can't jusssit ssstill. Can't. Can't. Can't.

[doc_holi]

I know.

[You're so lucky that she's still being patient with you.]

But if you keep trying to push yourself, it's only going to take longer for you to get better, if you get better at all. If you play it smart and just take it easy for just a few consecutive days, then you'll get better a lot quicker.

[She's told you this a few times already, but maybe it'll sink in this time.]

Also, the longer you stay like this, the more Drift will be stalking you. I mean, if this keeps going, you're liable to wake up with him starring at you one of these days.

[He shakes his head.]

Can't. Can't. Can't.

[He needs to be doing something even remotely useful. Lying in bed isn't helping anyone.]
