( sitting up slightly, hands resting on their sternum with a few patient blinks. she seems to be pondering something herself. )
did i, uh. . . pick the wrong dialogue option. . .
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
you mean that logic dive thing i used to do, right? . . . yeah, yeah, i can take a second to think about it.
🍊
. . . hina.
( reaching out — squishing their cheeks between both of her palms with a hardened stare. )
i know im not the * smartest, but. . . like. blink for a second and review the situation you’re in. do the little skateboarding thing you do. ( * 💧 )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
i'd be happy to help. . . just. y'know. tell me what it is i need to do to keep you awake or whatever.
🍊
i know how to stay awake for a long time, i think .
i do it nearly every night when i get distracted and forget to sleep. . .
( bowing her head into their palms, humming quietly. )
but your help would be nice. ( * 💧 )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
then we'll just have to do whatever it takes to keep you awake, right? sounds easy enough considering how motivated you seem to be right now.
( they reach their hands over to her cheeks, gently squishing them together before pulling back. )
🍊
i had a gut feeling as to how i should’ve gone about it, but i didn’t wanna leave anything up to rng ! ! ( * ✨ )
( she seems to be very proud of having such a well-thought out plan. . . even if it really wasn’t as complicated as she was making it. )
that’s why i can’t fall asleep. . .
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
a walkthrough? i didn't think i was that complicated to talk to. . .
( they're obviously not upset by the thought, considering they chuckle in response to it. )
well, if you've put that much work into getting this "secret ending," then it'd be a terrible shame if you did fall asleep.
🍊
. . . ( * 💢💨 )
( puffing out her cheeks, brows comically furrowed enough to make a wrinkle in her forehead. )
i looked up a walkthrough to get the secret ending, of course. i min-maxed my skills and everything. . .
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
and what kind of social event is * that, hmm?
( they question with a teasing tone, trailing their fingers through her pale locks. )
🍊
yeah, but this is like the * one time where i’m * really trying not to .
or else i’ll miss the hinata social event. . . ( * 💦 )
( frowning, legs kicking gently in protest. )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
( well, all they've got on is their boxers. so there isn't much covering * them, either. they just have a naturally warm body. )
this is pretty nice... but we both know you're gonna end up dozing off somehow.
🍊
( to be completely fair — she’d likely be a lot less cold with more than just a jacket. )
this is a lot nicer than sitting around. . . i’m trying not to fall asleep, though. ( * 💧 )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
( slinking their arms around her waist with a content sigh. . . she may be cold, but the softness compensates for it in their mind. )
hellooooo... ( * 💕 )
🍊
you do. i can save my game here. . .
( stretching — resting her weight atop of them. )
hiiii. . . ( * 🌸 )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .

i bet it does. i'm sure i have a very comfy body to lay on, after all. . .

🍊
( hovering. )
it just, yknow. . . helps me sleep, i think.
( very nice excuse. )
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
ㅤ
of course, of course... lemme just get myself in a good laying position first...
ㅤ
🍊
yaaaay. ( * 🌸 )
my turn, my turn. . . need somewhere to lay down.
—— 𝙽𝙴𝚆 𝙶𝙰𝙼𝙴 + .
ㅤ
i'm right here, don't worry... just needed to get more comfortable.
