Description: Because Sendo needs to relax a bit



Saya patiently waited, sitting at the sofa, for Sendo to get ready. Since he was her partner, she thought it was best to talk to him about the last days and the dangers they faced in Death City; while those undead weren't like the ones she knew, they obviously left her on edge but she believed she could handle that just fine. She wanted to know if Sendo did too, however.

Not to mention, a date (IT'S NOT A DATE) going out the two of them sounded like a good way to relax a bit.

Sendo was only in his room for about eight or nine minutes once he got out of the shower. He put on some of his more casual looking clothes, just in case they did something other than walking around the city. After all of that was done, he stepped out of his room and headed for the kitchen.

“You ready, Saya?” He took some cat food from the cabinet and opened up the can. He’d feed Brawl now before they left so he wouldn't have to worry about it later.

[sayatakagi]

She moved her head when Saya heard his voice. "I am." She got up. Actually, she had picked nice clothing. it has been a long while since she used something without having to think if that was good to run. While she still worried - obviously, she has PTSD - this time, she didn't want to give in to her paranoia. Not to mention she had her partner with her.

Saya petted Brawl one last time before she motioned Sendo to come along. "Let's go."

[naniwarocky]

After he placed the food into the little dish and tossed the can out, he gave her a bit of a nod before starting over toward the door with her. He pulled open the door when he got to it and stepped outside and waited for her to come out with him.

“So what have you been doing all day?” He asked, just to make idle chitchat. He’d just been at the gym all day long.

[sayatakagi]

"At the clinic." for the calming wavelength, mostly. Saya was still a bit shaky regarding the recent events and she couldn't sleep again. The calming feeling the clinic brought was what allowed her to feel normal.

"How are you, Sendo?" she didn't mean it for it to be a light question, and she'd refuse a dismissing answer. She wanted to know how was he for real.

[naniwarocky]

“I’m fine aside from the restlessness that I have been feeling. “ It was such a pain in the ass to him. Though it had only been about a day or two since all of that stuff had ended. He probably shouldn’t be forcing his body to try to relax after exerting himself as much as he did.

“..What about you? How are you doing?” He was really more so worried about her than he was himself.

[sayatakagi]

Saya didn't answer his question. Mostly because the answer would be the same as always. PTSD, nightmares and fear of it happening all over again; after Death City was invaded by those undeads, sh probably got worse, but Saya didn't want to believe that.

"Are you restless because of the recent attack, or is it something else?"

[naniwarocky]

Don't think Sendo didn't notice you avoid his question there.

"The recent attack, I guess. I'm not scared or frightened on anything I just..I don't know. A lot of people were put into danger because of that stuff. And I guess maybe my body isn't letting me rest yet in case something like that happens again soon." That's as much as he could figure from the situation.

[sayatakagi]

"It will happen." She isn't the kind to lie to reassure people; she believed it'd happen. "This is a war, after all." The girl looked at him. "I know you feel restless, but pushing yourself too much isn't good. It will exhaust you."

[naniwarocky]

"At least I would get some rest if I was to exhaust myself.." He sighs a little. "But you know, you don't really have to worry about me, Saya. I'll be fine." He couldn't look after her and protect her if he wasn't.

[sayatakagi]

"Don't tell me not to worry about you." of course she worried! It was impossible for her not to, it was Sendo, after all. "Have you tried going to the clinic? they have calming wavelength, it can help you to relax."

[naniwarocky]

"No." That that thought hadn't even occurred to him.

"I'm sure they have better things to do than look after someone that can't sleep." He shrugged a little. He wasn't going to go and worry them with something like this.

[sayatakagi]

Saya huffed at the response "Lack of sleep is bad, Sendo." she knew what she was talking about, she suffered from it. "Remember when my performance was all screwed up? It was due to lack of sleep. And you won't even notice it; decrease of strength, ability to concentrate and ability to do proper exercises. You will become slower to react and you won't even realize that. And that will just frustrate you even more."

So basically: "Go to the clinic, stay there for a while feeling the Calming Wavelength. I do that every-night, it's no big deal."

[naniwarocky]

“Is this going to be one of those things that you aren’t going to let go of until I agree?” He knew all about what the lack of sleep would do to his body. But it hadn’t really gotten that bad yet where it was an issue. Though..it probably would have been smarter to deal with the problem before it even got that bad.

“I’ll consider it if you tell me how you are sleeping at night.”

[sayatakagi]

Why was he insisting on that? Saya bit her lower lip, frowning.

"No. If I tell you, you will do it." Because Saya must win.

[naniwarocky]

He only insist on it because he cares about you, Saya.

" I said I would consider it. Can't you be happy with just that?"

[sayatakagi]

"No, I can't. I want reassurance. I want to make sure you will be taking care of yourself before it gets any worse." She crossed her arms, and of course, frowned.

[naniwarocky]

"Fine. If you tell me, then I will go and see if the calming wavelength will help him." But if it doesn't, then he can't see himself heading back to try it out again.

[sayatakagi]

Good. That would be enough for her, for now.

"As for your answer-" since she agreed she would tell him. "I can't sleep again." Nothing new there, why would he even bother?

[naniwarocky]

He should have known that this was going to happen again. Though if she couldn't sleep, he didn't see why she was worried about him instead of herself.

"And you just weren't going to tell me?"

[sayatakagi]

"I'm taking care of it, Sendo." She was; she was going to the clinic to calm herself down and relax, and so to be able to sleep. She was slowly (very slowly) getting better, but everything had just happened all over again; Saya can't just go back to how she was before.

[naniwarocky]

“It is still something you should have told me about.” Though the same could be said about him and his own issue sleeping at the moment. Though his probably wasn’t nearly as bad as hers.

[sayatakagi]

"You didn't tell me you couldn't sleep either." Saya sighed.

"Sendo, my..." sickness? No, not that. "situation is permanent. It will never go away. It can be controlled, but it will always be there."

[naniwarocky]

" I know, Saya. But you still had it under better control before." He didn't blame her for losing control of it again, though. He knew when he saw those things, it would only make things worse for her. Still, she handled herself far better that day than he thought she would.

"You know, you could try staying with me in my room for a night or two to see if being around someone else helps."

[sayatakagi]

Saya pretty much freezes at his suggestion and her face turns red.

"WHAT?!"

[naniwarocky]

Sendo didn't know why her face was red. Maybe she was feeling feverish? "I said you could stay in my room with me. I don't know. IT might make you feel more comfortable and relaxed."
