“Everything okay hun?” your wife asks you, looking up and seeing the look on your face.
“Yeah, it's just... I'm not sure what to do.” you tell her honestly, your wife blinking in surprise at your admission. “I've spent the last year so focused on training, on getting Chaya ready for fighting that Tuffle, I'm not entirely sure what to do when not training.”
For a moment your wife is still, then you see her eyes shut, trying to contain her sudden laughter. Not a small laugh either, but a deep, rumbling belly laugh that causes her entire body to tremble. You look down at her in confusion, the force of your wife's laughter bringing a tear to her eye. Which she wipes away before looking up at you, flying up and out of your arms to gently kiss you.
“You idiot. You can't blame that on the last year. As long as I've known you, you've always been pushing yourself just one step further.” she says with a warm smile. “Fighting harder and harder, day after day either training yourself or someone else. You've NEVER been one to just rest, not without a doctor's orders. And even then, you'd be resentful about it. No, I think this new training schedule's gone and done you some good, hun.”
“You think so?” you ask, looking back. And, much as your wife said, it's hard to remember a time when you WEREN'T pushing your limits, pushing yourself harder and harder. There's always another threat, another challenge, so much so you can only remember a handful of times you truly took days off to rest. Usually the day after you'd nearly been killed or your world obliterated, but that was mostly because you'd been too physically exhausted to do much else. And you don't really know what to do on a day off, without being there for someone who needs you, someone with a problem they need you to solve. For the first time in years, for just a moment, you're not NEEDED. And you don't know what to do with this.
Well? What now?
>Take your wife through the city, see if anything catches either of your interest
>Stay home around your ship and rest, spending time one-on-one with her alone
>Head over to the arena, see if any interesting fights are going on
>Ask Meloka what she'd like to do, if there's any way she wants to spend the day
>Other(write in)?
