everybody's fine 'cause it's party time ( W5 AFTERPARTY )

[cheerfuldays]

After a positively thrilling game of the prisoner's dilemma, it's all over. Everyone needs to get patched up, recover and... hopefully not kill each other after everything. At some point in the cafeteria, Shizuku and Madara have taken over the kitchen- though help won't be denied completely- and leaving a large meal of noodles and whatever else they can still use from Fai and Shizuku's little shopping trip... not a lot of fresh food, but it works out. There's also plenty of coffee, a tea kettle and even hot chocolate ready. (Shizuku herself is using her ill-gotten tapioca balls for some homemade boba, hell yeah.) Team Idol may not stick around for long, but there's plenty to go around for now... and Shizuku will happily bring over some snacks from the convenience store too. And did you know that place has a milkshake machine? Because it does. Get you a milkshake, people.

But tensions are high after everything. Hopefully this doesn't become a murdergame.

[selfconcept]

Yeah. I told you, didn't I?

[ That he'd love to eat Fai's cookies every day... ]

[partymagician]

[ He laughs... then immediately goes into a coughing fit. ]

Well, I think I'll be out of commission when it comes to making those for a few days.

[selfconcept]

[ He let the last one slide, but now he gets out of bed to give Fai a water bottle. ]

It's fine. Just drink this.

[partymagician]

[ He takes a few long pulls after he uncaps the bottle before setting it back down on the desk. ]

...Thanks. I might not feel pain right now, but I can tell my body is suffering.

[selfconcept]

I bet. My body wants to hibernate several years after that.

[ Sucks that he doesn't have regeneration, but oh well. He guides Fai to his respective bed. ]

So you should rest now.

[partymagician]

[ He lets Hien lead him to his bed, but he also looks at him. ]

...You don't want to sleep together?

[selfconcept]

... Oh.

[ He's not used to that, so he completely forgot that was a thing. ]

No, um... we can.

[ He's so awkward because he's the one who led Fai to the bed, but just decides to forego it so that he can drag Fai to his own bed with ten comfy pillows and other miscellaneous other pillows and cushions he got from the common area. ]

[partymagician]

Are you sure you don't mind...?

[ Because he's being awkward about it now.

And also those sure are a lot of pillows. He noticed them earlier, but now that he's in Hien's bed, it feels like so much more. ]

[selfconcept]

I don't mind.

[ He even wraps his arms around Fai's torso and pulls him close after they're under the blanket. ]

[partymagician]

[ He wraps his arms around Hien in turn, burying his face against in the crook of his neck. ]

I think I'll recover more quickly if I sleep next to you.

[ That's not how it works and he's well aware of that, but it's how he feels nevertheless. ]

[selfconcept]

You're so cheesy...

[ He won't deny his claim anyway. ]

Let's get some good rest. You can use one of these pillows so you can dream of good things.

[partymagician]

Alright.

[ He lifts his head up so he can give Hien a quick peck on the lips before settling against that pillow.

It doesn't take long for him to fall asleep. ]
