Stone Circle The wonderful thing about tiggers

At Steph's comment, Nikai nodded with a "mm-mm." Valette seemed to always think of everything, so he wouldn't be surprised if she had already thought of this. "Yeah, she always thinks of everything," said Nikai. Valette always made being an adult look so effortless, but Nikai's own experience was that it was confusing and difficult often times not to lose oneself in the midst of caring for everyone else.

"That's probably it," said Nikai after Steph suggested he'd just need a little bit more time to heal. "I'm practising walking around on three legs, at least. I mean, just in case." He smiled reassuringly, though Nikai wasn't really as confident as he tried to let on in his healing abilities. So far it wasn't going too well and he was slowly beginning to lose hope that it'd ever be well again.

"Do you want to play a game? A not-walking-around-game like..." He considered a moment before deciding: "I spy? I'll say like... I spy.. something furry, or round, or long. Then you have to look around and tell me what you think it is." Nikai waited to see if Steph was up for this game or if she had better ideas of her own.
