Party time, party time

[roundandaround]

WHO: Rinku, Mary, any friends of either/both
WHAT: Housewarming mingle!
WHEN: October 5
WHERE: Fine Arts House (Solarpeak)
WARNINGS: Keep it clean, there are kids here.

All those months of work are paying off, and Rinku and Mary have moved to Solarpeak! Their new house, a beach-stilt-style house in walking distance from the Summer Guild building, is bright inside and out, and today there are balloons and games set up underneath the house and a wide-open door up the stairs leading into it.

Anyone who knows Rinku and/or Mary will have been invited to party; housewarming gifts are accepted but not required, and food is provided, ordered in from nearby restaurants. The bedrooms are closed but everywhere else is open, and if you need to get away from the party, you can go sit outside... or if Mecchan isn't scared of you, he might let you chill in his room for a while. Otherwise, have fun with the games, the art room, the music room, the food, and anything else!


(This is a mingle, so go ahead and tag each other on any and all toplevels! Have fun!)

Then it's a deal! I kinda need to rest more anyway. Usagi-chan keeps saying I'm working too hard... and I kinda-sorta might have almost fallen asleep on the floor at work.

[abnormalizes]

That's definitely a bad sign! [Fret fret fret!!] Please take a break or something!

[roundandaround]

Okay... I just really wanted to get enough money to move someplace nicer after Rika-chan went away.

[wasn't that in may?? rinku????]

[abnormalizes]

How many months ago was that? Hasn't it been a while??

[roundandaround]

Yeah... I've still been going to fun things, it's okay! But I've been putting a lot of work in between the bar and quests. Maybe I really should take a break... Just for a little bit.

[abnormalizes]

You should definitely take a break! If it's gotten to the point of almost passing out.

[roundandaround]

Wah! Sorry... I'm trying to rest. I didn't mean to make you worry or anything.

[abnormalizes]

It's okay. I know you're an adult who can make your own choices, I just - don't want you to get sick or hurt.

[Rinku puts down the crayons and hugs Evangeline.]

Thanks, Neechan. I'm sorry. I didn't wanna worry anybody.

[abnormalizes]

[Squeeeeze.]

You're important to me, so please remember to take care of yourself. You'd be upset if I worked until I passed out, right?

[roundandaround]

[Snuggle cling. Rinku looks chided, but leans into Evangeline.]

Yeah... I wanna say getting tired is different from passing out, but I guess it's a dumb thing to say.

[Hina drops the crayon again and flies up to rest on Evangeline's head. Drawing isn't fun when you don't know what you're doing.]

[abnormalizes]

[Hina can get a pat too. Group hug.]

If you get to the point where you actually pass out, you probably should've taken a break earlier, I figure.

[roundandaround]

I guess so. I thought it was enough to still go have fun once in a while, but maybe that just made it so I didn't wear out until now?

[abnormalizes]

Maybe! Maybe it depends on how tiring your fun is.

[roundandaround]

It did kinda scare me. Even I run out of energy sometimes, but it doesn't happen a lot!

[abnormalizes]

It's hard to imagine you out of energy, but I guess you're still human, huh.

[roundandaround]

Usually when it happens I just fall asleep someplace. Like backstage. Or on a bench.

[abnormalizes]

You can sleep outside? I can't fall asleep anywhere but my bedroom.

[roundandaround]

Eh? Really? What do you do for quests that take a long time? Can you sleep in a tent? Or an airship station?

[abnormalizes]

...Honestly, I usually just don't sleep...

[roundandaround]

Ehhh?! Even the ones where it takes, like, a week to get somewhere? Are you gonna be okay?

[Now Eva is the one being worried about for unhealthy habits!!]

[abnormalizes]

I'm fine! I nap sometimes when I have to! ...Not all that well...

[roundandaround]

Would it help if other people went with you and guarded you while you were sleeping? Then you wouldn't feel like you were gonna get hurt?

[abnormalizes]

...If it were somebody I felt comfortable enough to go to sleep around, yeah... So that'd be you and... hm.

[roundandaround]

[concern!!!]

Then I promise! If you need me to come on an expedition really far out, I will! I don't wanna let you get hurt or sleep deprived or anything.
