W0, FRIDAY

[reconnective]

[at some point on friday, sora's still wandering around and seems to be investigating the inn itself. there's plenty to explore around town but he seems to be checking out the nameplates outside of each door. so. that sure is what he's doing outside of kano's door, and unfortunately he's leaning a little too close and might accidentally slap a hand against the door. kano can either hear the noise or he can come upstairs and see sora being a weirdo, ori, it's dealer's choice let's go.]

[suddenlybees]

[ The door gets flung open, a bloody disembodied arm slaps Sora in the face, and the door slams shut again.

I'm going to do this to any person who ever tries to get near Kano's door and maybe someday they will learn. ]

[reconnective]

[WHY. there's a yelp as the arm slaps him in the face and he dodges from having it touch any other part of him, but that does not deter him? instead he's now purposefully knocking on the door.]

Hey! What was that for?!

[suddenlybees]

Hm? Oh. Hm.

[ There's some shuffling on the other side of the door, but it does not open. ]

It's, like, a welcome gift? Old family custom, or something like that~ Here, you gotta throw it back now! Return the greeting!

[ The door does not open, though. ]

[reconnective]

Huh? [the worst part is he can't even say that's bullshit because hey, maybe it is in some worlds? so kano keeps the door shut and sora's giving this arm the most doubtful look of all time.] But how can I throw it back and return the greeting if the door's still shut?

w0 friday

[reconnective]

[look he has no idea where he expects to find kano, but he's off on a search for the other boy anyway. wherever kano happens to be, sora approaches and immediately flags him down.]

Hey. Did you see that announcement this morning?

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano would be in his room, barring himself away but hearing Sora's voice, he opens the door. Dark circles under his eyes and a split lip is the only development since he's seen Sora last, and somehow he can smile but make it humorless at the same time. ]

Sure did.

[ He steps back from the door, nodding for Sora to come in so he can close it. ]

Whatcha make of it?

[reconnective]

[he. will ask what happened to kano's face later. right now he nods back and enters the room, shutting the door behind him.]

Something went really wrong last night, and I want to know what it was and how it was even possible. Did you get locked in, too?

[suddenlybees]

[ Kano maybe wouldn't answer, so it doesn't matter.

His bed is the one furthest from the door, so he goes ahead and belly flops down onto it, leaving space for Sora if he wants to flop too, or just stand around awkwardly, whichever. ]

Uh... No? Your bedroom door's malfunctioning or something?

w1,thursday

[suddenlybees]

[ Going to accost Sora while he's hanging out in the lobby after the cyoa, but long enough after it that everybody else has already fussed and looked over him and Kano can no longer be expected to go "oh no are you okay??" and can jump straight into "what the fuck happened" ]

Hello, hi! Still got your sword?

[reconnective]

[kano i'm crying. anyway sora's in the lobby with his sword that's leaning against the side of his leg, but he grins a little at the question. maybe he doesn't mind the fact that kano isn't asking if he's okay.]

Seems like it. Guess this thing's not going anywhere for a while.

[suddenlybees]

[ Look, if Sora is sitting upright and smiling, then he's okay.

Kano goes ahead and sits on one of the sofa's arm rests, turned so his legs dangling off the edge because he is not that much of a cretin that he would rest his boots on the seat. ]

Yeah, you're gonna want to hold onto that! My third arm disappeared, you know? Like, poof!

[reconnective]

[what a good (?) boy. except, uh, wait.]

What do you mean it disappeared? Where would it even go?

w1 friday

[reconnective]

[knock knock on kano's door, it's update time binch!! if kano's not around though, sora will wait for him.]

[suddenlybees]

[ Update time... It takes around a minute or two for the door to open, though Sora can hear the shuffling behind the door while Kano's making his way there. The door creaks open to reveal a pile of blankets on the floor which is probably where Kano had a time extracting himself, and he turns around and shuffles back to his blanket nest and flops back down onto it face first, patting the space next to him.

Lie down. ]

[reconnective]

[you know. don't mind if he does. the door opening actually surprises him a bit for someone who should have heard kano moving around, but he wordlessly walks into the room and kind of...checks to make sure there's nothing in the nest he's about to stab himself with before flopping down.]

...so. You hear the announcement this morning?

[suddenlybees]

[ The nest is stabby object free! Very soft and fluffy and warm, obvious that somebody's been lying in this same spot for a while now. Instead of answering verbally, Kano just sort of nods his head without bothering to lift his face out of the fabric. ]

w1 saturday

[reconnective]

[when sora comes to kano's temporary prison, he's walking a little slower and he seems to have a few things in his hands. namely, there's a sandwich, a plate of beef saute and a little fruit tart that looks like it was freshly made. as he approaches though he realizes there's still a barrier so he sets the plate aside and has a seat on the floor to look at him.]

...the leaders should be able to pass through the barrier if you want these later. But I won't mind if you don't. [...the sandwich is a back-up if he doesn't like the plate of food.]

[suddenlybees]

[ Welcome to the lounge. Like last time, Kano's sitting up on the armrest with his feet dangling off the side, but shifts to sit on the ground when Sora comes by with food. ]

Haha... A last meal, huh? Where'd you get all this?

[reconnective]

Made it. [a shrug.] Figured it was the least I could do if I can't do anything else to stop this from happening.

[suddenlybees]

Oh.

[ He looks... a little uncomfortable at that. ]

You went through all the trouble knowing I'm just gonna die tomorrow anyways?

[ Put effort towards alive people, Sora, don't do this ]

w7 saturday

[reconnective]

[well. sora knows where some of the leaders are so when he enters the planetarium it's more with the intention of just hanging out.

except there's a face he hasn't seen in some time, so he lingers in the doorway a bit.]

Mind if I join you?

[suddenlybees]

[ What a place to hang out... He'd figured people wouldn't have as much of a reason to be here once the Leaders can be found elsewhere and the initial wonderment of a planetarium has worn off, but still, he hasn't been here in weeks and weeks and the wonderment is still here. ]

You can do what you want. I told you before, right?

[ Doesn't matter if Kano minds it or not. But he does pat the ground next to him where he's lying flat on his back, somewhere near the edge of the room. ]

[reconnective]

You did, but I also like to give people a choice. Not really a fan of forcing people into things they aren't up for. [with that said, he immediately sits before he joins him in laying on his back to stare at the ceiling.]

Taking a break from everybody else?

[suddenlybees]

Something like that. I don't really have anything to say to them.

[ Not like he had anything to say to Sora either, to the point of seeking him out, but. Sometimes two people are in a room together and somebody strikes up a conversation and it's always a surprise. ]

...Did you mind very much? Playing mailman?
