[ If Vanitas thinks being unconcious will stop Sora from talking to him, he's wrong. He'll just do it quieter. It takes a bit but he manages to get the other inside and to the one bed that's currently available (he didn't bother do anything with the one that folds down). He pulls the blanket from one side and wraps the other up in it. ]
Sheesh, did you overwork yourself?
[ Sora leans over to press the back of his hand to Vanitas' forehead, checking to see if he has a fever. ]
Then you can stay there and rest until I say otherwise. Healer's orders. If you wanna talk, we'll talk but I'm not letting you up from that bed until you can prove you won't pass out. Even if I have to strap you to the bed.
But let me tell you that I've dealt with having two red-headed troublemakers in my clinic who aren't fond of staying in bed. So I think I can handle you.
It makes sense. Your story's kind of really long and confusing, after all.
[ He shrugs a shoulder. ]
Not to mention, it kind of extends even to parts you didn't walk, yourself. You're a functional heart hotel, so it only makes sense that things get weird when you look too closely at it.
But... trust me; I know you better than anyone else around here.
It is pretty disjointed in places. Memories that aren't just my own.
[ A nod of his head thinking about how all of Sora's memories are only that, of his time believing he was Cloud, to memories straight out of Replica Riku's mind even if Sora was there. ]
Hm yeah. I don't generally talk about it anymore, though.
[ Reaching over to ruffle his hair and smile at him warmly. ]
I do trust you and believe that. You might not be a Vanitas that my mind can remember but... I dunno. It doesn't feel like you're a stranger either.
If you ever want to though, you know where to find me.
[ That was a weird pause but he just thinks it was going to be "put them through" - as in Vanitas, Ventus, Terra and Aqua.
Hm, both arms cross over his chest thoughtfully for a long moment. ]
Sometimes but that generally involves either Roxas or Ven's feelings. And even then it was... I have memories of Sora feeling their feelings and in the Facility I felt it too with Roxas. I didn't quite have the same connection with another Roxas, you know?
[ In the Facility, the two of them often shared feelings and even dreams. Maybe because they were clones created by the same organization who incorporated that. ]
It was different with the last Roxas I saw. And I don't think what I feel with you is the same as with that Vani either... or the one before that.

no subject
Clearly, he's not happy with this situation... but he finally does manage to respond. ]
I'll be fine...
no subject
Just shut up and sleep already. If you're not dying, then you clearly don't need medical attention from me. So stay there until you're rest.
[ He gets up from beside the bed and shifts over to sit in one of the chairs and look out the window. ]
no subject
... I can't sleep.
[ Not that he won't - he... can't. ]

[ Sora sounds serious when he says that. ]
no subject
Yeah? You really think you'd be able to manage that?
[ ... He sounds like he's willing to test that. ]
no subject
But let me tell you that I've dealt with having two red-headed troublemakers in my clinic who aren't fond of staying in bed. So I think I can handle you.
[ He sounds pretty confident. ]
no subject
... but he sighs and seems to relent, even just. Dragging a hand over his face. ]
Always so damn stubborn...
no subject
Sure am and don't you forget it either.
no subject
[ There's... something to those words. Like he's just shy of saying something else. ]
no subject
[ Sora's getting up and crossing back over to the bed, taking a seat beside him. ]
Most people don't know my whole story. Even ones who think they might.

Put me through.
[ It's the last part that especially causes something to flicker in his expression.
But, quickly, a smirk surfaces. ]
... Isn't that a common thing? Feeling like you've known someone much longer...
[ Maybe that sentence feels a tiny bit weird - usually someone would say "known someone longer than you really have" or something. ]
