Action -- Vongola III (Backdated to yesterday)

[not_mafia]

[Tsuna's been feeling pretty lackluster today, but not for the same reason everyone else has. He'd just discovered his loss the day before, and even though he can't recall the memories to miss them properly in the first place, the very fact that he knows what's missing has created an ache in his heart, and a worry in his mind.

Who is the person most important to me?

At first he thought he'd be fine with just staying in his room for a day and just refrain from eating since he was in no mood to deal with ghosts, but when he heard they hadn't been in the kitchen, he figured he'd at least come down to make himself something quick, then just head back up to his room to sulk keep out of everybody's way while he took in this new information.

And that's exactly what he was doing. Gripping his good luck charm in one hand, he'd first check if there was anybody already in the kitchen, and when it seemed empty, he walked on in, going over to the fridge to grab the ingredients before moving to the counter to fix himself a sandwich.

Come on. No kid should look this down while making food. Bug Salada Tunasushi?]

...

[Silent for a moment, before he realizes.]

Oh, that's right, you don't really remember. Well... I guess you feel guilty because I figured out my loss when I was talking to kid-you.

[akito]

O-Oh...

[ GUILT GUILT GUILT. Also he knows he was a weird kid and ... hopes he didn't like. tell people... stuff........ ]

[not_mafia]

Still, I'm not blaming you or anything, Akito-kun!

[He looks down.]

It bothers me, but... at least I know what it is, now.

Gao.

[akito]

Knowing is better than not knowing... ne?

[ Realizing that he still doesn't know what his own loss is...

Will hide any sad feelings and worries in the pettings he continues giving Natsu. D< ]

[not_mafia]

Yeah, I think so.

[After a moment, Tsuna relents, sitting down and taking a bite of his sandwich.]

[akito]

[ Will wish himself up some melon bread and ignore the nasty headache it gives him. :|b ]

Sorry if I was a burden to you when I was a kid.

[not_mafia]

Don't worry, you were fine. Compared to the kids back home, you were really mild, trust me.

[akito]

If you're sure..!

[ Omnoms on his melon bread. Needs to gain back the like ten pounds he lost while coma-ified. q_q ]

[not_mafia]

[Natsu sniffs curiously from his spot on Akito's lap.]

Mm.

[Tsuna gives that simple response and continues to eat, himself.]

[akito]

[ Feeds a piece to the little lion. :D ]

[not_mafia]

[Natsu takes the piece and eats it, before going Gao! It seems he likes it.

Tsuna smiles a little at the two, although it seems half-hearted.]

[akito]

[ Feeds Natsu some more bread. >> ]

[not_mafia]

[Natsu happily takes it! Tsuna doesn't say anything... yet...]

[akito]

[ There's not much left anyway so he just gives the rest to Natsu, then makes a wish and pulls another out of the purse he carries.

. . .

Wow that is a nasty headache.



Oh well.

He'll nibble on his newly-acquired melon bun and continue petting Natsu. ]

[not_mafia]

[Tsuna watches curiously..]

Are you sure you should be doing that, Akito-kun? Aren't there consequences for wishing up things now?

[akito]

Someone has to make sure that food stays in the kitchen while this is going on, ne? I rarely wish for anything, so I shouldn't be too badly impacted...

[not_mafia]

Aa, but you could just go over and get stuff from the fridge.

[akito]

But where does the food in the fridge come from?

[not_mafia]

...

I have no idea...

[akito]

Exactly!

So if I can make my own food and save the food that's here for other people, I think it would be better.

[not_mafia]

Does the stock here ever run out, though?

[akito]

... I don't know!

But if the food here is conjured up out of nothing like wishes, and the ghosts are gone, then I think that once the food runs out it won't come back.

[not_mafia]

Ahhh, maybe.

[A pause, and then:]

Do you really think the stuff from wishes come out of nowhere, though?

[akito]

They could come from energy, though the energy source would be debatable.

[not_mafia]

Ahhh.

[Takes another bite, chews, and swallows.]

I was just thinking-- since people are brought here, wouldn't it makes sense for the items we wish for to be brought here, too? ... I guess that just sounds more plausible to me than some sort of magic making it up on the spot.
