*Mizu, in the meantime, is busy beating the Water Temple in OoT3D*
Oh, god… *The man working at the front desk rings up to the apartment, saying they have a visitor* So quickly?! Let her up… *Tugs on his pacifier a bit* Damn it…Mizu! Take my pacifier with you. *Pulls it out, wiping it off before handing it to her*
Huh? *uncurls from the little ball she was in under the lamp* Whaddoyah mean? *actually unaware of what he means*
She's coming. *Blinks at the pacifier, taking it and staring for a moment before he throws it on top of his bed* Jeez… *Jakkan dims the lights, and plays some soothing music in the background* I'm not letting my paci ruin this for me…
*Mizu is off getting warmed back up before Luka arrives. She'll have to hide in the cupboard under the sink for a few hours with her 3DS again* *meanwhile, every time Jakkan passes by his paci, he gets a twinge of need for it in his head*
Hey, yeah…alright, I'll see you in a bit. *Hangs up, standing and heading into the kitchen. He grabs to glasses and a bottle of red wine*
Is the lucky lady on her way, or is that wine for me? Oh! *she holds out Jakkan's pacifier* Can you take care of this for me? I need to go warm up under the heat lamp a bit.
*He seems pretty absorbed in it until the phone rings* That must be Luka. *He answers*
*she watches him intently* *eventually, she grabs the tv remote and turns it on, going to some colorful educational children's cartoon. An episode about colors!*
*After his shower and returning back to his adult self, he changes his clothes and puts on some cologne. Afterwards, he sits down on the couch and rubs his head*
Alright. Be careful and don't slip. *she takes his pacifier and pockets it* I'm gonna put this away. You wanna know where I keep it? In a tiny box at the back of your grown-up diaper drawer. It'll be there if you ever feel like having it. *waits as he finishes his juice*
*Pulls it out of his mouth* Yeah, I slept fine. Where are my pills?
I got one right here. *she holds it out along with a bottle full of apple juice* It might take a few minutes to kick in, since it's been a few days since your last one. Do you wanna get on a clean pool diaper and head to the shower?
*Rubs his head* Mmmn...*Tiredly sits up* What time is it...?
*Mizu heads back to bed, letting him sleep until his meds arrive at 1:00* *she slowly makes her way in to his room* Jakkan? Psst. Time to get up... c'mon kid. Time for a fresh diaper and your pills.
Wait, how does that work? *Takes his pacifier back*
Well, you know how you get when you have that thing. I just gave you a baby bottle of milk and you didn't even notice! And THAT was just from a few minutes. Think of a few hours with it. **eh, she's probably just talking nonsense! Of -course- he would notice if she had just given him a bottle! She's just messing with him. Surely!**
S-Shut up. I'm not addicted.... *Frowns, looking to the side* I'm a twenty year old man. Of course I don't need my pacifier... *Rubs eyes quietly*
Right. Twenty year old. Unless you're twenty months old. *she leans in and wipes some of the milk he spilled off his face, taking the empty milk bottle back* I know I normally keep this hidden, but... *she hands him back his pacifier* You can have it tonight. To help you sleep! Don't come crying to me if you wake up unable to count to your normal age.
*Reluctantly removes his pacifier* I won't use it as an adult...which is why you should tell me where you put it. *He says before sucking on his bottle*
You sure? I've seen you looking for it before. You sure you're fine with it as an adult? It's not like an addiction, is it? ((Oh god she's gonna give it to him during his date. He's doomed.))
