how do you make dreams stop?

[The message appears fairly early in the morning, maybe 4-5 AM.]

[Everywhere, really; though nowhere special. This is just what he does.]

Well, [counting on fingers,] there're two stops in town, first. The other two aren't anywhere close to each other, near the forest, and the last one's further out this time.

[Not that he minds. ...He never minds. The further he strays from thoughts, the better. He isn't inclined to think at all when he's wandering through wildflowers, wherever opened paths lead him.] I think the countryside's better, so I save the longest trips for last. Since it's quiet.

[His smile's drowsy still, sleep-shaded. He doesn't mask it this time.]

You can sit where you want, though. The blanket's there if you're cold still. [Then, forcing excitement down,] We might get food as tips this time.

[If they're lucky!]

That sounds good to me. It won't be too heavy if I'm sitting back there, will it?

[He doesn't want to be an extra burden, and while he's hardly someone to get up and run in the morning (he's not Ryohei or Yamamoto), he can still do it. Sort of. Distance running's not a forte.]

Do you often get food as tips?

[Is he worried about that?]

I think you're lighter than the flowers are.

[Looking him over. Honestly— He isn't All Might, but he's not so weak either. His brows lift slightly.]

Sometimes. [Then, shyly, scanning the ground instead,] I kind of like the pastries best. [But who needs gold these days? Hasn't he seen enough money? He doesn't try for that; wants his friends instead. ...All those danishes.] We should hurry. [Before others eat them! He shifts in place.] Did you want any? I can save you the doughnuts...

[A note of excitement. He's smiling softly.]

C'mon. You won't be heavy.

[His friends never are.]

[Compared to All Might, Tsuna is definitely a weenie. Or at least, All Might in his prime (now they might be equal).

Tsuna can't help but return the smile, looking encouraged.]

If you say so! But let's see what we get first.

[He climbs aboard, happy to help if he needs to. He won't just take the pastries.]
