[he really should've caught up with Yoshi last night, after hearing Medic's report on the bones and washing the ink and glitter from his hair. but by the time that last thing had been done, it was late. and while Akira is a night person through and through, the events of the past two days have left him wiped. and he isn't against crashing early when necessary]
[. . . and then Monday rolls around, and the morning is a whirlwind, for lack of a better word. new memories, new announcements, new rules about a game in which Akira had absolutely no interest in participating. and amidst it all, after helping his new pal with. . . uh. bleeding eyes, he remembers he never followed up the night before]
[and that is how Akira winds up knocking on Yoshi's room door, sometime around lunchtime after all of the excitement of the morning has passed. 'sup, friend. are you home]
[He is greeted by a drowsy kid once again! Does he ever get enough sleep? Maybe if he didn't stay up all night playing games and also, you know, end up with bleeding eyes and so on.
It's fine. In fact, it's so very fine, Akira is greeted with a sleepy yet still cheerful:]
[That's a headpat! Interestingly, if Akira's hand gets too close to the "rabbit ears," he might notice his hand phasing through them because they're just holograms.]

Hi Akira!

Hey, Yoshi-kun.
Have you. . . slept any?
no subject
Now I'm ready to play games all night again!
[YOSHI, PLEASE.]
no subject
[reaches out]
[drops a hand on his head]
[and ruffles his hair]
Naps aren't the same as sleeping through the night.

But there's still so many things left to build!
no subject
That's what daylight hours are for, actually.
What are you building?
no subject
[Very important work.]
no subject
Minecraft.
[RUFFLES HIS HAIR AGAIN]
If my cat were here, he'd definitely scold you for staying up so late.
1/2
[But he's laughing, at least.]
2/2
Your cat?
no subject
My cat. My alarm clock. They're basically synonymous.
no subject
[That's kind of weird, Akira!!]
no subject
[SURE IS WEIRD]
[but he sure as shit isn't elaborating]
[just like Akira. to drop a weird factoid of his life and not. . . elaborate. . .]

no subject
Do you have a talking cat?!
no subject
[yes]
no subject
How do you get a talking cat?!
no subject
no subject
no subject
[between yesterday and this morning and Everything]
no subject
But I got better pretty quickly. So I mean... right now, that's probably pretty good, right?
no subject
Adapting to a scary situation isn't a bad thing.
But don't force yourself to be okay when you aren't, all right?
[he's already getting those kind of vibes from Yoshi's smile]
no subject
[Ahaha.]
I mean, it's different if someone else wants me to do it - I'm happy to do almost anything people ask! But this is definitely just how I am.
