heart game - MK, rinku

[wroughtandtempered]

I’m sorry. I tried— I tried, but I can’t keep going—

I don’t think I can do this alone, so— Please. Please—

I need help.

Rinku gets off the futon to pull it over, looking concerned at MK.

"MK-san, look! The blankets are actually warm, you gotta try it! ...Are you okay? Did something hurt you again?"

[noodleboi]

"Warm blankets? Okay, that's good. We gotta move the futon though. It has a trap door under it. I think that might be where the thing hurting Eve is. Can you help me move it?" MK is excited and clearly impatient all at the same time.

"Okay! Come on, let's go!"

Rinku nods excitedly and shoves the futon to try and move it out of the way. She'll stop to rearrange any pillows that fall over.

"I put the pillows in a circle. Maybe that'll cheer Eve-chan up more! Oh, right!"

Once they've gotten the futon to where they need it, Rinku takes off the crocheted blanket and drapes it over MK instead, with all its warmth and laughter. She shifts again and flies up to perch on his shoulder.

They moved the futon and MK blinked. He felt the warmth and laughter in the blanket and laughed himself. He nodded at Rinku on his shoulder.

"Let's do this," He moved down to knock on the stone trap door then try to open it.

Knocking does nothing, but it's easy enough to open once the leather straps holding it down are undone.
