[ She blinks, closing her hand around it before she opens her fingers again, looking at it. There's an immediate recognition on her face. ]

Where'd you find this--?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

Tentacle had it.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

...

Tentacle?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

Tentacle.

[nods

then just

kneels down next to the bed, resting his chin on the edge to keeping looking at Ritsuka]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

Why was there a tentacle...

[ She doesn't sit up since he does that, but she does let the globe roll away, reaching with her free hand to pet his hair. ]

...

Also this is gonna sound weird, but... where are we?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

Inside yer heart or soul or something deep like tha--ah....

[leans into the pets]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

Oh my god, I'm sorry.

[ Not that she knows what he saw, exactly, but she knows enough of the people here to be apologetic. And continue petting. ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

What the heck ya sorry for? I wanted t'be here.

I missed ya.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

Was I gone for long?

[ She looks a little surprised, but she's being good. She is not actually questioning or pushing back on it. Only hand-holding and hair petting now. ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

Long enough for my taste.

How ya feeling?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

...Tired, mostly. A little confused? I don't even know how I got here. How much trouble am I in?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

Not much now that yer found. You can get back to how things ought t'be.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

...did he break something...

[ It's just a guess, really, but if she's been asleep, that means probably the Beast was up and running things. ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

No but uh I don't wanna talk t'that guy I wanna talk to Ritz.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

I'm right here, Ruggie.

[ She laughs a little as she says it, hitching closer to the side of the bed and sitting up enough to put her arms around him. It's hugging time now. ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

[GOOD

he will indulge the hug and maybe also enjoy it]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

[ They can hug and she will even give him a little kiss on his forehead. ]

...Thanks for coming for me.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

You'd come for me! So I had t'come for ya no matter what.

Wouldn't be fair otherwise.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

You didn't have to. I would've been okay.

[ But also she is clearly happy about this. :( Thank you for coming, Ruggie. ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

I wasn't gonna leave yer well being up t'chance, ya know?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

I'm pretty sturdy, you know. It's hard to take me down.

...But I really mean it. I'm happy you're here.

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

[pecks her cheek

then rubs his cheek against it

just furry things]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

[ She lets out a sputtery little laugh, but leans into it. THIS IS FINE, THIS IS CUTE?? ]

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[rugpull]

What, I do somethin' odd?

Re: FUJIMARU RITSUKA

[fujimaru]

No! It was just cute.
