[someone has fallen asleep amidst a pretty good amount of toy soldiers and dinosaurs, one of the soldiers still clutched in his hand. he's breathing through his mouth because his nose is stuffed up, and he has a plastic dinosaur under his cheek. this will make for an interesting imprint when he wakes up.

he doesn't seem to be having a very good dream.]

Are you gonna taste it an' make sure?

Well, you're not supposed to take medicine if you're not sick... I'll see what I can do though.

'kay.

[can't breaaathe- brb picking his nose because usually that helps]

[...ew, rests a hand on his arm to push it down.]

That won't help, Riku.

[sulks and wipes his finger on the bed]

[more ew. pats his head with a sigh.]

I know it's not fun. I've had plenty of colds myself.

Can you make it go 'way?

Only with medicine, lots of water, and rest. I don't know how to get rid of it any other way.

[slumps a bit, but doesn't look willing to argue anymore]

Can I sleep in your bed?

Yeah, sure.

[he's totally giving up remaining healthy orz]

[congratulations, you are now officially a real dad.]

What about Shadow?

[hurraaaaay.]

I don't think Heartless can get sick.

Can he sleep in your bed with us too?

[..........]

Why does he need to?

What if he gets lonely sleepin' under my bed when we're in your bed?

[more dots.]

He can... sleep under mine? But I wouldn't feel comfortable with him in my bed.

[brb crawling to the edge of the bed to peer underneath it]

Ya hear that, Shadow? Chichi says no gettin' in the bed but you can sleep under it!

[ghhh. he keeps telling himself he'll get used to having that thing around, but so far he hasn't yet.]

[there are a pair of bright yellow eyes peering out from under his bed now, before a black blob on the ground suddenly darts out and swings around the corner, headed straight for Chichi's room. you can has a Heartless under your bed now. :D]

[he doesn't tense too much, at least.]

[and now he's gathering his paopu and blankie, and holding his arms out for you to pick him up]

Do I really gotta take medicine?

[picks him up immediately, nodding.]

You really have to.

[BIG SIGH but you get hugs anyway, or what he can manage with the armful he's got]

Are you gonna take a nap too?

Maybe.

[he'd been thinking of trying to make sure he had everything to take care of Riku, but he can just hang out here and do that when the kid is awake again.]

[rubs his nose on your shirt before resting his head on your shoulder, already starting to feel worn out again]

You're not gonna get sick too, right?
