[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.]

[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?

Hopefully not.

[time to go to bed sigh.]

[pats your shoulder]

Don't worry Daddy, if you get sick I can take care of you.

[smirks a bit.]

That's good.

That means you gotta take medicine too okay?

I'm not sick yet, but I will if I get sick.

Oh, okay. That means don't get the bad tasting kind, cuz you might hafta have it too!

I don't know if there's a kind that doesn't taste at least a little bad.

Maybe there's some that tastes like candy!

I don't know.

We can look later?

Alright.

But first we gotta take a nap, okay?

[as if it were all his idea, yes.]

Sounds like a good idea.

[as soon as they're in the bed, someone is going to get a lot of cuddles.]

[...well, cuddles make up for getting sick.]

[he'll fall asleep pretty quickly, so if Chichi needs to sneak away for anything that's probably the best time.]

[he'll do that to try and find some medicine, and maybe make some soup.]

[hopefully the medicine isn't pink or any kind that smells bad.]

[no, he'll find something kid-friendly.]

[If it's grape you have a better chance of getting him to take it than say, bubblegum flavor.]

[really? cool, we'll go with that.]

[are you going to be devious and give him the kind that will make him drowsy.]
