[ Sinclair pauses a little, and reaches over to pat Oria's head gently. There there. Hehe]

That's too bad...it's actually pretty good. Still...mm, if you can finish half the bowl, that should be good enough.

[dissimulative]

[ Oria pouts a little, but opens his mouth again. Feed him some more, Sinclair. He'll definitely finish the entire bowl. ]

[insinning]

[Ah. Sinclair will obediently feed Oria until Oria tells him to stop or the bowl is empty. Which will it be?]

[dissimulative]

[ The bowl eventually empties. Oria has been diligent about eating despite lack of appetite and taste, because he does want to get better, for the record. He feels that the rain definitely started something, but being stuck in the shower, soaked and with conditioner in his hair definitely didn't help matters. ]

Emil, do you ever like... think of yourself as a homebody?

[insinning]

Hmmm? [Finished. Sinclair will gather up the rubbish to throw it away and get started on his own breakfast - a simple sandwich] I guess so? I like going around and exploring things, but I like being able to stay inside to read a good book or play some games too.

[And well, Oria knew what Sinclair was like with people. Shy, until he could relax]

[dissimulative]

[ Sinclair being the househusband doesn't sound like the life that he'd want, but Oria imagines it anyway. He doesn't have a vast imagination, so he can only think of the standard things. If he has to read, it's likely a comic book or a serious document. There's really no in-between. ]

We should explore the campus some more when I'm not sick... and when it's not raining--

[ He sneezes again. It's high-pitched and squeaky. Kill him. ]

[insinning]

[Heeeelp. It's so cute. It's so cute...! Sinclair tries to hold it in, by focusing on his breakfast]

Yeah. That'd be fun. Have you discovered everything you can yet?

[No more ghosts though. He will never forget that Figure. Urk. ]

[dissimulative]

Yeah. I like to go exploring too and I've been here for a while, so I found all the places that's able to be found.

[ Hehe... ]

So maybe I should start working on places that aren't normally found.

[insinning]

Like?

[Oria, don't make it sound suspicious. He gets up to make some tea for both of them. Thank god for the wonders of modern electric kettle]

[dissimulative]

Like maybe... a secret underground passage. It's one of the mysteries of the school, so there's probably something like that in existe--

[ Oria sneezes again, but this one makes him lie back down on the bed by the recoil. Help. ]

[insinning]

How old is the school? I wonder what a passage like that could even be used for...

[Ah, he's excited now though...wouldn't it be fun to find a secret tunnel? Sinclair looks at Oria and gently pulls the blankets up further. The kettle beeps to tell him it's done so he gets up, makes them both tea with a bit of honey and sets one on the table within Oria's reach]

Maybe you should go back to sleep and catch up on your rest.

[dissimulative]

What if I get a headache from sleeping too much...

[ He whines, not wanting to go back to sleep. ]

I slept enough, but I still feel so tired.

[insinning]

Ah, that does happen, doesn't it? [Sinclair opens his laptop]

Well, you're sick. It's only normal you feel tired even after sleep. What did you want to watch then?

[dissimulative]

Log into my Hulu account. I wanna see the latest from the Bachelor.

[ Nothing like adult drama to popcorn over. ]

[insinning]

...you really have fun with that stuff, huh?

[Ok then. Sinclair will log in as requested, and pull up the latest episode]

[dissimulative]

Thaaaanks.

[ Oria does his best to sit up again and grabs his glasses case to put them on. He can finally see things instead of photoshop 64px gaussian blur everywhere. ]

You don't like this kind of stuff though, right? You're not good at hiding it.

[insinning]

Mmm...it's a bit. [How should he put it in a way Oria will understand completely]

It makes people seem terrible.

[Adults, specifically. Well, if Oria is content, Sinclair will duck into the bathroom and have his long awaited shower. Hot water please be available]

[dissimulative]

Yup! It's all scripted drama, but some people can't separate their feelings from acting and the real thing so they end up going out for real after the show.

[ But horrible adults is what Oria is used to seeing, but just not in a romantic quad love spat-sort of way. Sinclair is free to take that long, steamy hot shower. ]

[insinning]

[Ahh, better. While he's in the shower, he takes a moment for everything from last night to sink in. Oh, they kissed. He confessed properly. Oria returned his feelings. Everything was fine? Good? Except Oria was sick now so--aaaaaaaaaaaa]

[dissimulative]

[ Oria's still sick, but even so, he already fully understands the weight of his decisions and has been pretty happy. It's just that he's sick so he can't properly convey it. But know that he is joyous in his heart... or something.

Much more joy than the latest episode of The Bachelor. Damn. This episode sucks. Why did Irene cheat on this guy with the trash man... ]

[insinning]

[ He's just Overwhelmed. He's quick about his shower, drying his hair gently on low heat before he changes into a fresh set of clothes, throwing everything else into his hamper. It's still raining and cold. He's going to crawl back into bed with his new book, peering at the screen]

Oh, did something happen?

[dissimulative]

[ Oh hello. Oria makes room for Sinclair to sit. ]

That busty brunette dumped this actual nice guy for this trash man. I guess cold and mean guys are still in the vogue or whatever.

[insinning]

[ It's his bed...but he'll happily sit next to Oria and make himself comfortable. It's fine]

That's just what the audience of these shows like though, right?

[dissimulative]

The cold type? I think I'd fight them.

[ Yeah. Yeah.......................... ]

[insinning]

[Sinclair tries not to laugh]

...I feel like you probably would.

[Oria, please. The show is designed for drama]
