boathouse roof

[thirdarrow]

[ It takes a while, but he finally makes it to the boathouse with a flashlight. It's very dark now - how did Feliks even get up there? ]

Lukasiewicz? Can you hear me? [ He somehow manages not to mangle the pronunciation too badly. ]

[niepokonany]

[He pretended something was a ladder. If anything, his power is more effective when he drinks.]

{I'm drunk, not--}

[Right, English.]

I'm like drunk, not deaf!

[thirdarrow]

[ Well, at least he's still alive.

Takakage doesn't comment on how rude Feliks continues to be. First things first. ]

Good. Can you get down from the roof?

[niepokonany]

[Feliks has a lot of strong points in the right light, but politeness just straight up isn't among them.]

Probably if I felt like it?

I mean my power doesn't do anything to gravity.

...As far as I know.

[thirdarrow]

[ Unfortunately Takakage deems respect as not being rude. And you're younger than him, which just kind of translates to insolence. ]

Well, kindly get down from the roof. Before you fall off and gravity causes you more damage than necessary.

[niepokonany]

Nie. So not feeling it.

The moon's way pretty up here, and anyway I still can't find my shoe, I'm just gonna hang up here.

[thirdarrow]

[ He suppresses a sigh. Drunk people were always hard to deal with - willfully poisoning themselves, no less. ]

I'll check on you to make sure you are not haemorrhaging, then you can go back up. Does that sound fair?

[niepokonany]

I mean look. I'm not hurt, I only had a few drinks, and also it'd be a total pain to climb back up if I already climbed down. Can't you come up here?

[thirdarrow]

No, because I cannot make ladders, and there are no ladders within range.

[niepokonany]

[A blond head appears over the side of the roof, and a collection of junk next to the building makes itself into a set of stairs]

There.

[thirdarrow]

[ He raises an eyebrow, though whether Feliks could see the expression is doubtful at best. ]

And this construct will hold my weight?

[ How can you be sure that it did not only apply to the maker's reality? ]

[niepokonany]

[Feliks cracks a grin at that.]

Dude, don't worry about that! It's not about if you believe in me, it's about how much I believe it's real.

Plus you're probably almost as light as me!

[thirdarrow]

[ That's... actually quite true. He might even be lighter than Feliks, despite being taller.

And the youth's cheer does reassure him a little. If it isn't too bad, he could just leave the patient Feliks be and just send some medicine for the morning. ]

Very well.

[ He makes his way up the stairs, and thankfully it doesn't collapse. ]

[niepokonany]

[Feliks lies back down on his back, when Takakage's safely up, still a little fascinated by the moon.]

See? Totally told you.

[thirdarrow]

[ Takakage won't be convinced so easily, though. Only after he does a basic check of Feliks' various vital functions (and alcohol metabolism markers) does he finally believe the youth's words. ]

You do not seem to be in any immediate danger at the moment. [ Which is good. ] I will send you some medicine for the morning so you will recover faster.

[ It could have turned out worse. ]

Please get some rest soon.

[niepokonany]

Yeah, I'm gonna have to pretty soon here.

I told you, though, right? No harm done.

[thirdarrow]

[ ... he's implying that he'll sleep on the roof.

That might not be a good idea. While the atmospheric humidity is still low, there is no telling whether it will change... ]

I meant resting in a proper bed. Hard surfaces tend to cause spine problems, if not dislocations.

And if that happens you will have to see me again.

[niepokonany]

I don't wanna go back, though.

[He flops onto his side, messing with the edge of a shingle.]

I don't wanna be there right now. So here's fine for now!

[thirdarrow]

[ There seems to be something else to this case, but professionalism prevents him from enquiring further. And remaining here will only complicate the problem... ]

I see. [ He fishes his flashlight out from his pocket where it had been. ] If you require anything, my phone line is always open.

[ ... he means it medically, of course. ] Have a good... night, then. Remember to attend your classes.

[ Luckily the stairs are still there, so he carefully picks his way down. ]

[niepokonany]

[And Feliks can sulk in peace! ...Mission accomplished??]
