IC: After Cheshire/Jabberwock's game

[stigmateyes]

[So one mage might've overnighted the clinic to ensure his stupid king actually slept amid the chaos. Did he sleep himself? Who knows? But, this fine dawn finds him up and hard at work CLEANING ALL THE THINGS.]

[stigmateyes]

You bet I am! Still doesn't explain the extra work.

[madasahero]

Seeds are important. Don't you think they deserve a fair price?

[And now we are taking the stairssss, and then more stairsss]

[stigmateyes]

I guessssss—Hey. Was your room always this high up?

[madasahero]

Eh? Have you never noticed?

[And moar stairssss. Now you have a panting Sion awkwardly kinging to you. He is laughing though.]

[stigmateyes]

[Supporting even more, pushing a hand against his chest.]

Ahh, this is way too much for you. You're going to die just trying to get up here, you hear me? What happened to your other room?

[madasahero]

[His heart is beating fast! He rests his head on Ryner's shoulder]

I've decided that it was time to have my own room again.

[stigmateyes]

Ahhhh, did you have to choose the one at the very top, idiot? No wonder you wanted to sleep at the clinic.

[Picking him up. :\]

[madasahero]

[Fsdadsft]

...Well, the others were taken.

[stigmateyes]

[It's over the shoulder jsyk.]

Why the hell did you leave anyway?

[madasahero]

Pointing at the eighth floor]

She was getting hurt. She was not the only one. And I needed to be in a place where...

[Sighs, clinging to his waist. 8|]

[stigmateyes]

... You're avoiding Onyx?

[Still waaaalking.]

[madasahero]

[That's the best conversation to have upside down.]

More like taking a step back.

[stigmateyes]

[Ugh your braid keeps getting in the way! Have to shift to carrying under legs and shoulders. orz]

Ehh?

[madasahero]

[Yay, Bridestyle?

Also, not answering that question. :(]

You told me yourself, to not attempt to save those who didn't wish to be saved.

[stigmateyes]

All of them... ?

[madasahero]

[Opening the door with the tip of his foot]

I'm not sure yet.

[Sounds a little dead inside. :(]

[stigmateyes]

... Maybe I should let Sion have my bed more often.

[madasahero]

[That gets him a smile]

Maybe I can pay back the favor...in advance.

[Motioning towards his super comfy bed. It's in the window facing the sea.]

[stigmateyes]

[Setting Sion down on the bed...

And then going over to the window.]

At least your view's something impressive. Though probably still nothing compared to Roland.

[madasahero]

[Holding his hand to his chest.]

Well, Roland is Roland, isn't it?

[Watching Ryner watching the sea.]

[stigmateyes]

[Feeling that sharp stab of conflict at the words.]

Yeah...

[Turns back around.]

How are you doing over there?

[madasahero]

Lonely. You and Ferris could keep me more company.

[stigmateyes]

I know. I meant...

[Glancing at that hand on Sion's chest.]

[madasahero]

...

It's under control.

[stigmateyes]

[Sitting back down next to him and pushing against his shoulder.]

Look, if you're not going to take it easier, you can at least pace yourself more, you know. You're not the only one who worries about people.
