>Does Kyouko snore? Loudly, I mean, she does most everything else loudly.

>No, thankfully.

>Well, you know what, we ain't sleeping on the floor again. Better off outdoors at that rate, and the room's already paid for. And all things considered, we could do worse for the first person we had to split a room with. Marisa'd probably kick us off the bed in her sleep, and I think Orange snores.
>Of course, that assumes SHE wants to.
>"Well then partner, how ya wanna handle this little issue?"

>"You're not sleeping on the floor," she grumbles, as if cutting off an anticipated argument.

>Raise hand. "This time, I wasn't thinking about that. If I was gonna sleep on the floor, I'd have headed back out of town, found somewhere on the ground. Saved the money. And I'm not about to make you sleep on the floor, either."

>"Aren't you even going to say what the idea is?" Okay, now there's no mistaking it.

>Flop onto the bed.

>You flop back onto the bed; the sheets ruffle with a satisfying poof as your impact forces the air out of them and you sink into the mattress. The bed feels wonderfully soft beneath you; It's really been too long.
>Kyouko looms over you and slowly grins. "If you really mean to take my pillow, I'll prove it to you, too!"

>Laugh and pull her down.

>You grab Kyouko by the arms and yank her onto the bed. The yamabiko's eyes flare open as your maneuver catches her off-guard and she collapses upon you with something between a giggle and a squeek. Her body feels surprisingly light against yours. And warm.
>After a moment, she pulls up enough to look you in the eye and say "So, does that mean you surrender already?" She punctuates this statement with a playful poke in the ribs.

>"Hey!" She tries to sound indignant, but can't quite keep herself from laughing.

>Alright. Alright. Here it comes, don't screw this up Naz.

>You chuckle at Kyouko's consternation for a moment, then shift sideways to give her room to stretch out. She claims a pillow possessively, but then sinks back into it with a contented smile. You feel yourself take a careful breath, as words bubble to the surface.
>"I already said not to worry about that," she says gently. "You're well, I'm well, I got to see a bunch of neat things; it was a good couple weeks!"
>You're sure parts of it can't have been very good at all, but she gives no hint of it.

Alright Sour, I've racked 'em up, you knock 'em down! I'm goin' to bed.
