Tifa: It’s 11 o'clock, now get up!
Tifa: The world's not going to go away just because you want to sleep all day!
Leon: Well all I know is that it's a world where you turn into Lions...or something...
Leon: ...As a resident of my house, and being a member of our family, you have a duty to do your load of the work around here.
Cloud: ....
Leon: *crosses arms*
Cloud: ...all right, I'm getting up...close the door....
Leon: ...
Tifa: *sighs*

Izzy: (true XD)
Izzy: (Cloud's picked up Zack's laziness)
Sora: Wakey wakey~
Sora: We're gonna go on an adventureeee
Izzy: (actually, he was more like "life hurts my brain right now, I don't wanna get up")
Sora: *shakes his arm*
Aki: (haha awww)
Cloud: Okay, okay....
Leon: There. The foolproof way of waking anyone up...
Izzy: (send Sora after them...)
Aki: (yeah)
Aki: (exactly)
Sora: *throws some clothes at Cloud and runs off with another of Cloud's shirts*
Izzy: (haha Cloud's not gonna have many clothes left at this rate)
Aki: (.....Sora...really likes those sweater-vests XD)
Izzy: (haha)
Leon: You can’t not get up now that you've said you're gonna go on the adventure.
Cloud: I'm getting up!
Cloud: *pushes the clothes off the bed and does so*
Leon: And your daughter- I had to feed her.
Leon: *leaves*
Cloud: ......
Cloud: *sighs and starts getting dressed*
Sora: *runs back downstairs and tackles Kairi*
Kairi: :D
Aki: (...everyone's getting mauled by him today XD)
Sora: :DDD

Aki: (You just can't say no to him XD)
Aki: (Cept if you're Aerith or Kairi XD)
Izzy: (true XD)
Izzy: (or leon)
Aki: (Leon had some issues saying no this morning XD)
Kairi: Thank you for breakfast, Riku, Aerith!
Aerith: No problem.
Riku: Yeah.
Sora: :DD
Aki: (Riku and Kairi might have some issues learning to walk on four legs. Cuz Sora did XD)

Sora: ....*rikutackle*

Izzy: aww
Riku: *tackled*
Sora: .....
Sora: bleh.
Sora: hmm.
Riku: ....
Riku: What's bothering you now?
Sora: ...Nothing really. Just thinking. *shrugs*
Sora: ....It's not like you to even consider those things! Why? *glares*
Aki: (ah, there you go)
Riku: ...what?
Riku: What things?
Sora: .....Dying. Killing yourself! *glare hardens slightly*
Sora:...Why would you even think about it..!
Riku: .......
Riku: *looks upset*
Riku: I...
Riku: I wasn't...thinking straight.
Sora: *nods and sighs* Why do I even bother...
Sora: Whatever.
Sora: Sorry.
Riku: ...no.
Riku: I'm the one who should be apologizing.
Sora: Well, I yelled at you. Sorry.
Riku: *shakes his head* I...I deserved it, all right? I upset you. I never should have given up.
Riku: I should've...known better than that.
Sora: Yelling made me a hypocrite, though...*sighs*
Sora: ...So I shouldn't have, anyway. I'd have probably tried the same thing...*grumbles to himself*
Riku: ....well, then. We can both be idiots together, like always.
Sora: I guess so.
Sora: And the other Riku put stupid ideas in my head, anyway...I shouldn't have been so angry, either way...
Riku: .....

Aki: (Sora: *chasing butterflies*)
Izzy: (geez XD)
Izzy: (Tifa's like "and this is why you study the culture of the world before you jump right in")
Sora: *nips at Riku's ear cuz it keeps twitching*
Aki: (Sora's just like, 'STOP TWITCHING, DAMMIT!")

Izzy: (..."oh that." >.> Only Sora)
Aki: (XDDD)
Simba: You don't seem to take it seriously.
