Cg Gyomei/Little Muichiro

Requested by: AlondraMarroqun

Muichiro had been really out of it the whole day, which wasn't unusual, but he had been more so than most days. His brain just felt way more foggy than usual, and he really just wanted to cuddle someone or something as he slept.

Gyomei noticed Muichiro was act8ng a bit off, though it wasn't noticeable to others. Seeing as he was the only one who had noticed, Gyomei decided to talk to Muichiro about it.

It was a quieter point in the day when Gyomei approached Muichiro, sitting next to the boy. Muichiro agnoledged his presence by glancing up at him before looking down again. Gyomei decided to just start the conversation.

"I've noticed that you have been a bit more out of it than usual today." He told Muichiro. Seeing that Muichiro wouldn't respond to that, Gyomei continued. "Do you have any idea why that is?" He asked. Muichiro shrugged in response.

Gyomei knew he would have to dig deeper to find the answer, so he asked another question. "Do you feel any different to the way you normally do?" He questioned.

Muichiro thought about it a bit before answering. "Head 's a bit foggy." He told Gyomei whilst slightly shaking his head from side to side. "M also tired, but nu wanna sleep without anything to cuddle." Muichiro stated.

Gyomei thought about the information that Muichiro had just given him, and on top of Muichiro's shortened words, he came to a conclusion of what might be happening. "Have you ever heard about age regression?" Gyomei asked.

Muichiro looked up at him and shook his head. "Well," Gyomei started, "Age regression is something that happens when your brain regresses to a younger age." Gyomei explained to the best of his ability. "Does it feel like that is what is happening to you?"

Muichiro thought about it for a few seconds before nodding. "I feel this old." He said, holding up three fingers. Gyomei nodded, lightly ruffling Muichiro's hair. "Is there anything you want to do?" Gyomei asked.

"Sleep." Came Muichiro's instant reply. "But cuddle you." He added. Gyomei nidded, scooping Muichiro into his lap and letting him cuddle against him as Muichiro started to drift off to sleep.
