[ sneezes & sighs, shivering as he emits a small groan as the pounding of his head intensifies for the moment. slouches a bit so that he can press his face into brianna's shoulder, his body tucked against hers as close as possible in a (futile) attempt at borrowing some of her heat.

still, he has enough energy to look up when a nurse calls a name (thankfully not his or hers). closes his eyes again afterward, sighing quietly in relief. feels terrible, but the dread & fear of the woman behind the doctor's door is enough to make him cough out a few words. ]

I want to go home...

[ takes a while, but soon he's peeling himself off the pile of blankets, leaning back against the couch. reaches for his mug & sips at it, squinting at brianna. ]

[ does not even notice that he is looking at her for a good chunk of time, and it is only when she slowly turns her gaze back on over to him that she blinks in surprise. ]

[ blinks blearily. ]

What're you doing?

[ sounds a bit confused when she speaks. ]

I... am sitting here?

Oh.

[ a short pauses. ] Do you wanna draw again?

[ reaches over to pick up the plush cat to sit it upright on her lap, settling in again. ]

If you would like.

I'm okay with anything... do you know other games?

[ seems to think hard on this, idly rapping her fingers on the edge of the mug that still resides in her hands. ]

I think so. [ places the mug and plush on the floor as she stands up. looks down at him, her words more of a question than a statement. ] I will be right back.

[ nods, looking up at her with anticipation. ]

[ rushes off when she's given the okay, making a beeline to her bedroom again. opens her closet and peers inside, rummaging around. comes back downstairs a good handful of minutes later with what looks like her backpack, easing down on her knees again before setting it & unzipping it in front of albert. looks back up at him, waiting to see if it meets his approval. ]

[ looks through the backpack & lifts his head to look at her in surprise & amazement. ]

T-This is all yours?

[ blinks at him slowly, her gaze lowering to look at the backpack as well in brief thought. ]

It is now, yes.

[ busily going through the stuff in her bag, shifting through the many different treasures (at least in his eyes) with gentle hands. picks up & examines just about everything before he settles on a colouring book; lifts it out to show it to her. ]

How about this one?

[ looks it up and down before she nods, reaching out a hand to grab the box of crayons. ]

[ in the meanwhile, flipping through pages, looking for the picture that grabs his interest the most. settles with the two-page spread of a prince, princess & a dragon, not minding that it already has some colouring. ]

[ shifts her body a bit so that she could properly lay on her stomach, spreading out the crayons where both of them could reach them. looks over at albert, waiting. ]

[ picks out a dark blue from the pile of crayons to start on the prince, once in a switching with some yellow to outline the fancy clothing. ]

[ trails her finger across the colors, plucking a yellow crayon as well to start on the princess' hair, humming a bit to herself as she scribbles carefully. ]

[ stares at the hair colour for a moment, head tilting slightly as he tries to figure out why yellow feels wrong. shakes off the feeling, however, going back to his side of the drawing, soon abandoning the prince to work on the dragon. ]

[ finishes up the princess with a pink crayon, pressing the edge of it to the side of her lip as if she's thinking on the color choice. nods to herself after a moment of thought, satisfied. ]

[ is struggling with the dragon's horns at the moment, staring down at the brown & the silvery gray in his hand. makes little considering noises, pressing the crayon against the body of the dragon to see which one matches better. ]

[ watches him decide as she kicks her feet a little bit in the air. rolls over onto her back while keeping her eyes on him, lifting a hand to touch his free one & toying with the fingers there, half-paying attention to her own actions. ]

[ looks down at her hand, slowly extending his toward her so that she has better access, attention split between finishing the dragon & the warmth of her fingers. ]

[ her eyes flicker to the coloring book briefly, tracing his fingers with the tips of her own. ]

Stuck?

Mm... [ holds up the two colours. ] Which do you like better?
