week five ♡ wednesday ♡ magilou

[jokered]

[he made himself scarce on tuesday.

sometimes, a person needs time to decompress, and save for having checked on fie once the news was going around that mera was missing...

he stayed in his hut.

even as the sun set, he didn't leave. and the night was restless, with little sleep to be had and a lot of stress on his shoulders—a protag will be a protag. a leader will be a leader. akira is absolutely both of those things, and with things coming down to the wire, it's overwhelming to say the least. he's got all too many reasons, and because of that?

he isolates himself a bit. selfishly, and yet also selflessly, because he doesn't like burdening other people with his problems—and maybe a bit because some of the thoughts in his head and things weighing on him are things he doesn't even really know how to talk about.

stupidly, because people don't ever fuss about his problems, akira doesn't really think his presence will be that missed for a day.

whoops.]

[no regrets on that front.]

Hm... What does ten thousand gald buy?

[spinatalltale]

A decent weapon. Not quite top tier, but well above bottom tier, at least!

And if not a weapon, then at the very least a nice accessory. Oooh, with ten thousand gald I could also buy myself a new hat.

[jokered]

Alright. I guess that's more acceptable than just an apple gel.

[though his statement is followed up by a pretty massive yawn.

surprise, releasing all of his feelings and those burdens means the lack of sleep since his offed mera is finally catching up to him.]

[spinatalltale]

[. . . ah]

Looks like your all-nighter is really catching up to you, huh.

[he needs a nap]

[jokered]

[he definitely needs a nap, but he doesn't want her to go yet, either.]

I guess so. [he blinks a couple of times.] I'm tired.

[spinatalltale]

[shoves at his shoulder lightly]

Go, go. Take a nap. Don't let my presence stop you, hm?

[jokered]

Alright.

[except that he's going to just.

shift to lay down with his head in her lap?

he does what he wants, it's fine.]

[spinatalltale]

Whoa--! Hey, what. . .

[WELL OKAY]

[HIS HEAD IS IN HER LAP]

[she blinks in surprise a few times, before she just. settles her hand on the top of his head]

[yes, this is fine]

[jokered]

[absolutely fine. everything is totally fine.

it's comfortable this way, so it's not going to take him long to doze off. there akira goes, drifting off with his head in magilou's lap. a good pillow.]

[spinatalltale]

[IT IS A GOOD PILLOW]

[. . .]

[and hey, if he's asleep, he can't see the brief flicker of a fond smile appear on her expression, either]

[and so she sits there as he naps, her back pressed up against his pillow, gently tugging at his curls with her finger. he deserves this!!]

[jokered]

[nope, he's going to miss this expression. rude? rude!

either way, it seems he'll probably sleep for a bit now that his exhaustion has completely caught up to him. she can just wake him when her legs are going numb.

or he'll wake up eventually, since there are probably things to be done like deciphering emoji letters.]
