Akumal, Mexico - Room 1 - Cuddlepile of Hangover and Regrets

The cuddle pile was once again in configuration 2.0 - Dōjima, Reno, Rikku, Romeo - as Dōjima and Romeo were still not quite back to cuddling terms.

Rikku nuzzled carefully against one of the warm bodies curled next to her, trying to wish away her pounding hangover, and then flinched as a stray arm brushed her hip. Ow. Bruised. ... Bruised?

She squinted to take in the brand-new bandage on the back of her hip. Oh. Oh.

"Oh, nooooo," she groaned, burrowing deeper into her pillow. "We didn't."

As the other three had bandages of their own, it was fair enough to say that they quite possibly did.

(for the other occupants, and great SP justice! mod was with permission, all rights reserved, BYOB.)

There was a muffled whine from the other end of the bed. "Riiiiiikku! Shhhh! Some of us are still trying to sleep."

That whine would be Dōjima, who took the chance to cuddle closer to Reno. He was nice and warm, for such a skinny guy.

Between Rikku groaning and Dojima whining, it wasn't like Romeo could stay asleep. He kept his eyes closed for a moment for a moment, trying to hold onto unconsciousness, before giving up and propping himself up on his elbows.

And bumping his bandaged shoulderblade on the pillows.

"Ow," he said, and resettled, gingerly, on his side.

"Stop movin'," Reno grumbled, his brain refusing to acknowledge that there was waking up being done, here. Waking up meant acknowledging that his ass was sore, and that really did seem to be far too much of a bother at the moment. Especially since something told him that he didn't want to know why his ass hurt. Just that sleeping on his front was a good idea, today. "You girls are all... squirmy an' stuff this mornin, yo."

"Thought you liked your women squirming," Dōjima muttered, settling one arm across his lower back. "Shhhh...my head hurts."
withoutverona: (i say sir)

The combination of the comment and the way Dojima had very carefully placed herself as far from him and as close to Reno as possible made Romeo want to hit something.

He settled for glaring in their general direction and muddling to his feet. Without a word, he went over to the coffee maker.

Which, he was sure as he stood staring at the thing stupidly, he would miraculously understand how to use any moment now.

"You guys all drank too freakin' much," Reno decided, grabbing the pillow in an attempt to bury his head under it. "My ass hurts. Gnn."

[identity profile] dojima-hime.livejournal.com 2008-03-02 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Sensing more movement, Dōjima opened her eyes to watch Romeo get up and go stare at the coffee machine. Men. Go help? No. Warm. Shaking her head slightly, she closed her eyes, hoping to return to sleep.

Besides, she was still mad. Kinda. Let him figure it out himself, it might build character or something.

"Your ass hurts 'cause we drank too much? You sure you got that right, Red?"

"P'rrty sure," came the reply, mostly smothered under the pillow. "Yer dr'nnkin gave me a headache too, zoto."

It was easier to blame hangovers on everyone else, dammit.

"Figure out th'coffee pot, Romeo?" Coffee would be good.

[Pinging from super-weak spotty connection being ganked from the Theatre Scoiety building. Will probably vanish without warning, whee!]

"Almost," Romeo said sulkily, as he poured water into the ... water holding thingy. By process of elimination, he figured out where the grounds had to go, and randomly hit buttons until the water started to heat and bubble and coffee seemed to be imminent.

He scratched his fingers around the edges of his bandage. "Itchy," he groused. "And my head hurts."

"Try fluids and b-vitamins," Reno replied absently before surfacing from under the pillow. Unfortunately, he couldn't hold his breath nearly as long as Rikku.

Finally, he got the nerve up to venture forth with the million-Gil question.

"What the hell did we do last night?"
withoutverona: (Looking down)

[personal profile] withoutverona 2008-03-03 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Coffee was a fluid; nodding absently, Romeo poured some into a mug and took a big sip.

It tasted like mud mixed with dishwater, but there was definitely caffeine in there. "Shopped. Drank. Shopped some more," Romeo said, still not up to anything like flowery language. "And then ..." his blue eyes were wide as he consciously remembered this bit. "We got tattoos?"
raspberryturk: (Ow.)

[personal profile] raspberryturk 2008-03-03 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Reno wasn't really in any particular sort of cuddle mode.

Reno was more in 'his ass was too sore to let him roll over' mode.

Totally different thing.

"Always stupid when I drink. Why'd you let me do something this stupid?"
withoutverona: (Montague)

"What did you get?" Romeo asked, a little distracted since he was standing in front of the mirror, peeling back the bandage and craning his neck to try to see what his new body art looked like. As far as he was concerned, if it wasn't Juliet's name, it was all good. "Drinking means being stupid, that's why you do it."
raspberryturk: (What am I Saying?)

...

"If Rude's involved, this can't possibly be good, can it?" Reno half-rolled over and put his hand on the bandage on his behind. "I should be freakin' out right now, right?"
withoutverona: (suspicious)

[personal profile] withoutverona 2008-03-03 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Romeo peeled off enough of the bandage to finally get a good look at his tattoo and saw a perfectly nice sacred heart, with no extraneous names. All things considered, it could have been worse, so he sighed with relief as he replaced the dressing.

And gave Reno a Look. "I hope I am misremembering what you got, and where."
raspberryturk: (What am I Saying?)

[personal profile] raspberryturk 2008-03-03 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
"You misremember what I got on my right ass cheek, and you'll be rememberin' a lot better than whatever I got," Reno grumbled, very carefully wiggling out from Dojima's arm and attempting to sit up. "Because I got nothin', here?"
raspberryturk: (What am I Saying?)

[personal profile] raspberryturk 2008-03-03 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
"What!?" Reno tripped out of the bed and made a beeline for the mirror.

ShitShitShitShitShit. Boxers were being pulled down and the bandage was coming off and--

"SHIT. No freakin' way!"
withoutverona: (i say sir)

[personal profile] withoutverona 2008-03-03 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
Which would be Romeo's cue to get out of the way and fast, because Reno's butt was not what he needed to see when he had a hangover, no matter what adornment it held.

"Could you not have warned me before you stole the mirror?" he asked, swallowing back his laughter.

"You people are not going to let me sleep, are you?" Dōjima asked, sitting up. "Yes, Reno, you have a picture of Rikku's acid trip Big Bird on your ass, and you asked for it all by yourself. You thought it was a brillant plan, and we aren't your mother, so we let you do it."

"Um, viva Mexico?"
raspberryturk: (D:)

"Did I say anything about not killin' Rude?"

It was a perfectly valid question.
