[Forget the journal. Okay, more like Ceodore forgot his at the house. The moment the ground stops shaking, he's out the door to find Selphie, and then Frey. Don't mind the freaked out princeling running best as he can towards Community Building #3, calling out to her. Especially when he sees the building is flattened.]

Selphie?! SELPHIE!!

[Action]

[boomchucka]

[Now that Selphie's blushing and attempting to hide that fact with her hands, she'll walk backward toward the bed and plop herself down on it. Boy you better not be getting any ideas. Selphie's too tired to smack you around.]

Thank you.

[Action]

[lunarianlegacy]

[He's 17, of course he's getting ideas, and kicking himself for them too. Too bad for him he'll behave himself and re-enter the room with his hands firmly in his pockets.]

Do you need anything else? Another pillow or blanket?

[Action]

[boomchucka]

[Boys and their silly ideas. Regardless, Selphie shakes her head.]

No, I'll be fine with what's here. Thank you anyway, though.

[Ceodore nods then just stands there. Awkward! He's got no idea what the protocol is for something like this.]

[Action]

[boomchucka]

[Selphie giggles as he just stands there. He doesn't even have to try and cheer her up, he's just doing it without even trying. There really isn't a lot of protocol before she's standing up on her toes and pecks him on the cheek.]

Do you need your bed clothes?

[Action]

[lunarianlegacy]

Wel- uh, I-I-I- um yeah, but...

[The peck on the cheek is nice but Ceodore's really distracted now. Give him a moment to collect his thoughts.]

Are... you okay now? Because I can stay. If you want. N-n-not like all night, but uh...

[Action]

[boomchucka]

[She's calm and that's the important thing. Disaster's just tend to freak the poor kid out.]

Stay until I fall asleep?

[Action]

[lunarianlegacy]

Sure.

[And with that, he gives her a long hug. First things first in this putting the sweetheart to bed business.]

[Action] - for being convinced that he's full of fail, he's surprisingly good at this xD

[boomchucka]

[The minute his arms are wrapping around her, Selphie's eyes are starting to close. If he plans on keeping this hug up for much longer, Ceodore's gonna have to tuck Selphie in.]

[Action] - He's better at most things than he realizes. XD Don't gutter, woman.

[lunarianlegacy]

[He'd be okay with holding her forever. But when he realizes she's dozing off standing up, he stoops down and collects Selphie into his arms to carry her over to the bed. Not the first time he's tucked her in, after all.]

[Action] - xDDDD hahahahahaha too late~!

[boomchucka]

[Selphie's awake enough to give Ceodore a sleepy looking pout but she'll rest her head against his chest in the process.]

[Action]

[lunarianlegacy]

[That pout makes Ceodore grin. Selphie's so cute like that. He places her in the bed like she's the most precious and fragile treasure in the world, then covers her up. Without warning, while simply looking at her, he feels a surge of emotion that he can't identify.

He strokes her hair lightly, since it's too tempting to resist, then bends to kiss her forehead. Unless someone throws him out, he'd be content to just watch her sleep for the rest of the night.]

[Action]

[boomchucka]

[She curls into the blanket almost immediately, looking smaller and even more childlike than usual. She does feel that peck on her forward as her eyes crack open a bit. She flashes Ceodore a sleepy smile before nodding off for the night.]
