NIKI
"If I sit in the dark for too long I will fall back asleep," Niki says with a chuckle, already having walked to his main windows to draw the curtains back. Murmuring his thanks when Sunjata joins him, the squirrels that scurry past have him jumping a bit in alarm, but a laugh escapes soon after. "Gods," he says. "I am still not used to that. We had them in the Greatwood, but usually out on the trails." Still, with light now pouring into the room, Niki abandons the squirrels to pull back the rest of the curtains and then retreats to the sofa.
"It was perfectly fine. Thank you for taking the trouble," he assures the other man of the wagon. "Honestly, I do not think there was a person there who did not walk away sore, so I treat it as part of the adventure." But now that he's home he's much more interested in recovery, and in not having to go out again for a little while.
Grabbing his coffee with another thanks, he's no longer surprised to see that Sunjata knows his order, merely settling back to cup it between his hands. "I am glad you thought so," he says of his directions. "Now what is it I will see?"
