[whollyholy]

...

[sits up quietly and just kind of. stares.]

[keepyourmercy]

[feeling of being watched ping. grumbles and shifts again, grabbing his pillow and throwing it at the eyes he feels before rolling back over]

Go back to sleep, monkey.

[CATCHES THE PILLOW AS IT HITS HIS FACE]

...my, oh my. Someone's been hittin' the eggnog a little hard ♥

[keepyourmercy]

[NOT THE VOICE HE WAS EXPECTING]

[keepyourmercy]

[sits up]

... Oh. Right.

[whollyholy]

It's a little on the rude side to come on into someone's home and start throwin' things about, y'know. A well-traveled gentleman such as yourself ought to know.

[keepyourmercy]

Shut up. You were asleep when I got here, anyway.

[whollyholy]

Well, I hear it is best to wait till people are asleep before creeping into their abodes. If y'all missed me that much, Mister Sanzo, I could've made arrangements for tea. ♥

[keepyourmercy]

Coffee.

[really sitting up now]

[whollyholy]

[...l-laughs, then stands up]

The kids here aren't big coffee drinkers, and frankly neither'm I. If you're not willin' to face the world yet, I'm afraid y'all will have to make do.

[keepyourmercy]

You learned to deal with it when I started traveling with you and your little bodyguard.

[whollyholy]

Indeed I did. Developed a taste for Turkish coffee, if I'm not mistaken.

It's not somethin' I've had cause to deal with here, though. So tea it is.
