[Okay, now she's not just bored and unhappy. She's bored, unhappy and mildly sick. Or what feels like being a little sick anyhow.]

Then we're agreed. Thumb wars for better health!

[maipokerface]

[His "reasoning with gloomy girls" skills are strong!]

[maipokerface]

[She actually faintly smiles at that.]

Older sister or younger?

[thefuzzyguy]

[At least if he had someone he knew... Ideally a friend, but even if one of the Brotherhood goons was around, he could go punch them a lot, and that would probably count. He wouldn't have to worry about giving away his fuzzy secret, anyway.]
