''Do you know how hard it is to find grass in a stone prison?!'' Linus yelled as Blaze flew off. ''Ah, never mind.'' Linus said while beginning to mutter a song. (Here we go!)

He immediately stopped as soon as he noticed Lily staring at him. ''What? Just singing a song from my colthood.'' Linus said while a small tear rolled down his eye. ''I still remember that day..'' Linus thought.

Rook and Starbolt made their way back to the house. The moon was high in the sky and the lights from the city guided their way.

At first, light snow was falling from the sky, kissing the street and the building with a light dust. However, this soon escalated to a much more powerful storm. A blizzard ensued. Rook and Starbolt found themselves hiding in the same Dappalese place they had been to earlier.

“Well, here we are again...” Starbolt said, somewhat cross.

“Something the matter? I’m sure the storm’ll blow over soon enough. We’ll only be here for a good fifteen-”

“Rook, are you sure there wasn’t anything else you wanted to ask me earlier?” Starbolt said, staring at Rook.

“Um.... I don’t-”

“It’s just we’ve been together a for a good while now, we just seem so well together...”

“Yes, we -”

“Would you like a table?” Said a mare behind them in a thick accent. She was waiting for them with menus and such.

“Oh, sorry,” Rook replied politely, “we’re just hiding from the storm is all.”

“Yes, we actually got food here earlier.”

“Well, suit yourself,” The mare said, before walking off. Apparently, business was slow. From what they could see through the glass, only a few of the tables seemed to be filled.

“Well, I guess a cup of tea wouldn’t hurt....”

Lily kept staring at him as he went back to throwing daggers at the dummies. "That song...what is it about?" she asked. She felt moved by the song, as if it was talking to her directly. 

 

"Nothing." Linus said. "It's just an old song from my past. Nothing special."

 

"Are you sure? It looked like it was something important." 

 

"It was nothing!" he exclaimed. Lily jumped a little, causing her stomach to hurt a little.

 

"I...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you." she said, holding her stomach as it began to hurt even more.

 

"You alright? You getting a stomach ache?" Linus asked. 

 

"I...I don't know." she said. She let out a small cry of pain.

 

"Whoa whoa whoa, what's going on?" 

 

"I think...I think I'm...." Lily started.

 

"I'm back. Linus, they didn't have any silver teeth, so I got you a pair of vampire teeth. Lily-" Blaze started but stopped when she heard her scream. "You okay, Lily?" he said as he walked up to her.

 

"I'm having the baby you imbecile!" she shouted at him. 

 

He just stood there, shocked. "Wait....what!?!" he exclaimed. "Are you serious?" 

 

"Do I look like I'm fooling around here?!" 

 

"Blaze, what do we do, what do we do?!" Linus asked frantically.

 

"How should I know? I-" Blaze was interrupted by a screaming Lily.

 

"Take me to a bucking hospital!!" she snapped. "Or so help me I will rip you apart and leave you to hang by your explosive cache!!"

 

And the hormones return. Blaze thought. "Linus! Where's the nearest hospital?" 

"I have no idea! I just arrived in town looking for you guys!" 

 

"Gah!" Blaze exclaimed. "Then help me carry her and find a place!" he said. They picked her up and Lily screamed in pain. "Be careful!" he shouted.

((OOC, Somepony had to do it))

 

 

 

“Ok! Ok! Breath with me, Lily!”

Blaze hyperventilated, squeezing Lily’s hoof. He and Linus had successfully carried her to the house before the th blizzard started. Lily was lying on the couch, sweating and in pain, tryiing to control her breathing

“ACH! GAH!” Lily screamed.

“Oh sweet Celestia, does it hurt!?” Blaze said in a panic stricken voice.

“NO! IT’S ALL PEACHES AND PILLOWS RIGHT NOW! YOU BUCKING IDIOT, OF COURSE I’M IN PAIN!”

“Gah! We need to get Rook, and Starbolt! Linus, stay with Lily and-”

Linus shook his head with vigor, “No way in tartarus am I staying with a mare in lab-”

“JUST GET THEM, OR I SWEAR I’LL RIP OFF YOUR HOOVES!” Lily yelled as she had a contraction.

“And that’s my que!” Linus kicked the door open and ran off into the storm.

“No! Don’t.... leave me with....” Blaze felt abandoned.

“WITH WHAT!?”

“Nothing, sweetie! You’re doing a great job”

“SHUT UP OR I’LL-”

“Ok! OK! I’ll be quiet! Just... breath!’

Ten seconds later, “WHY AREN’T YOU TALKING TO ME!?”


***


“....So then I ask him to get the tea for me, and they came back with a bottle. A bottle.” Rook laughed, as did Starbolt, “Who does that?”

“Blaze, apparently.” Starbolt giggled.

“You’d figure him watching me make it so often, he’d get the picture with all the tea.”

They both laughed again. The nice waitress came over and refilled their teacups.

“Thank you.” Rook said to her before looking again at Starbolt. “So....”

“So...?”

“Yeah, so. What time did you want to me to come to the school to meet all your students?”

“Oh, just come with me. It’ll be a fun surprise for them. They wanted to throw this hearts and hooves day thing for me and you.”

“Wasn’t that-”

Starbolt giggled, “We have leftovers from the actual party. They’ll figure something out.”

“That’s so nice of them.”

“Yeah. They kept asking...” Starbolt trailed off and just looked at the steam from her cup.

“Asked you what?”
csd
“Oh, nothing. They just kept asking...” Starbolt started to laugh, “If we were married.” She calmed down and sighed

“Oh... That’s...”

A tear rolled off Starbolt’s nose and fell into her tea, “Yeah...”

Rook realized something was wrong, “Oh Celestia, is there something wrong?”

“No!... well... Rook...” Starbolt kept looking down. “I’m so... I just... Rook, are you sure about this? Maybe... maybe this isn’t... I mean you haven’t...”

“Starbolt?” Rook held out his hoofs, touching Starbolt’s. “Star... I think... Can I ask you a question?”

Starbolt looked up, wiping the tears from her face.

“...Will you-”

“ROOK! STARBOLT!” yelled Linus as he barged into the restaurant. “Lily! She’s having the baby!”

“WHAT!? NOW!?” They yelled.

“Hurry! We don’t have time! They’re at the house!”


***

After running (more like drudging) through the snow, three of them ran into the house. Blaze was still with Lily.

“BLAZE, DON’T JUST SIT THERE! GET SOME WARM WATER!” Rook immediately ordered. “LINUS! Go call an ambulance!”

“But what about...” Linus started

“GO CALL AN AMBULANCE!” Rook yelled. The two guys ran to do what Rook said. He kneeled next to Lily and started to breath calmly with her. “Don’t worry Lily, I’ve delivered a foal before when I was working with the police.”

“WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG!?” Lily yelled.

“Calm down. Just breath with me. Starbolt, be ready to catch the baby when it comes.”

“Ca-WHAT!?”

“Just do it, it’ll be fine.” Rook looked again at Lily, “Ok. Control your breathing. Breath in, and out. In, ou-”

“SHUT UP I KNOW HOW TO-”

“Lily, c’mon. Work with us, ok?” Starbolt said, “Dear Celestia, it’s all...”

“Don’t remind me. BLAZE WHERE’S THAT WATER!?” Rook said.

Blaze rushed into the room with a small glass of water. “Will this-”

“BLAZE! WHEN I SAID ‘GET WATER’, I MEANT A LOT OF IT!”

“.... Mug?”

“BLAZE!” Rook, Starbolt, and Lily yelled. Lily then screamed in pain.

“Tub?”

“Ugh, I’ll help you. Star!” Rook used his magic to open a drawer and pulled out some alcohol wipes. “Wipe your hoofs or something. Help Lily with her breathing!”

Rook and Blaze rushed into the kitchen to get what they needed. They passed by Linus, who was trying to use the phone “Stupid thing, why won’t you work!”

“Allo? What would you like to order?” The phone said.

“Oh, c’mon, Linus, just dial 911! It’s not that hard!” Rook said.

Blaze got a larger tub from under the sink and started to fill it with lukewarm water. “Rook, you sure that’s a good idea? What if the police -”

“Blaze, Lily giving birth sorta trumps that.”

“But what if I get arrested!?”

“Blaze, that was a long while ago! If they’re still looking for you, I think we-”

Rook was interrupted by linus yelling on the phone. “Lady! Our friend is about have a baby! Send somepony!.................... thank you.” Linus hung up, “they’re on their way”

“Great. Lily’s kid is about to be born and I’m going to prison.” Blaze mumbled. He tried to lift the tub out of the sink. Rook lent some magic assistance to move it.

“Blaze, stop caring only about yourself! There are other ponies on the line here!” Rook struggled using his with the tub.

“Hey, all you are is a bomb manic. I’m an assassin! What’re you going to think they’ll do to me!?” Linus yelled.

“Oh, come off it. If anything, I’m going to rot in a prison now for the rest of my life.”

“Yeah, well, they’ll banish me to the moon!”

“They’ll banish me to the sun!”

“BLAZEHELPWITHTHETUBICANTHOLDITMUCHLONGER!” Rook yelled.

“Guys...” Starbolt said in the other room, barely audible enough for them to hear her.

“Fine, you big crybaby,” Blaze helped with the tub, “C’mon, let’s get this to her”

“You weaklings. I’m an earth pony. I could have lifted that tub with my bare back.” Linus said.

“Guys...” Starbolt barely said again.

“Oh yeah? How’d you like to carry it then?” Blaze tried to throw the tub of water at Linus. Rook barely caught it with his magic

“Are you CRAZY? What the hay is wrong with you!?” Rook said.

“Look, if he wants to take it-”

“We’ll all take it in! Now-”

“GUYS!” Starbolt yelled. Rook, Blaze, and Linus all looked into the room and saw Lily, all tired and breathing heavy. Starbolt was holding the wet baby.

Blaze fainted at the sight with a thud, causing Rook and Linus fall down as well from the shift in weight from the tub.

“Ach... Great... job... Star...” Rook groaned.

Luckily, the ambulance arrived.

Blaze woke up with a bright light shining in his eyes. He moved a hoof in front of his eyes and moaned. "Hey, look who finally came back." Linus said. 

"Ugh." Blaze moaned. "What happened?" he asked. He looked over to his left and saw a pink alicorn laying in the opposite bed, cradling something in her arms. Blaze shot up. "Oh my god! Lily, are you okay? How's the baby? Is it a boy or a girl?" he asked frantically.

 

"Yes, I'm fine. I only gave birth to life. While you passed out by seeing him for the first time. He's fine, unlike his father, who's going to have a fun time when we get home." she said sarcastically. 

 

"Oh, right." Blaze said, embarrassed.

 

"Would you like to see him?" she asked, returning her voice to it's sweet tone.

 

Blaze nodded his head and walked up to her. He took the baby into his arms and looked at him. "What's his name?"

 

"I haven't decided yet. I wanted to wait until you could hold him." she said. "What do you think?"

 

"He's amazing. I'm not sure what to name him though. A baby this awesome needs a great name. I guess we'll have to think about it for a little bit. You get some rest." Blaze said as he handed back the baby to Lily. "Do you need anything to drink?" 

 

"Some water would be nice. I haven't had much to drink since I got here. If I want water I have to press a button that calls them in and I only get about 2 ounces per button. You should get yourself something too. Take Rook with you. I think he wants to talk after you dropped that tub of water on him."

Rook and Starbolt were in a little sitting area in a little nook in the hallway of maternity section of the hospital, waiting for Blaze to come back.

 

"Rook.... is delivering a foal always that..... messy?"

 

"It was when I helped do it." Rook shivered.

 

"I see..." Starbolt's eyes followed a couple of nurses walking down the hall, carting some bundled foals to the nursery. "I wonder, is it worth it?"

 

"Well, I guess if it wasn't, no pony would be here." Rook thought.

 

"Seems so. I mean.... being a mare and all... I guess that's something w-.... I should think about." Starbolt smiled and looked at Rook, "I guess we'll have a chance to watch Blaze and Lily go through this. We'll know if it's worth it."

 

Rook sighed and looked at the clock, "Star, there's something I gotta ask you."

 

"Hmmm?"

 

Right before Rook got a chance to say anything, Blazed trotted up, "Hey, Rook, can you help me get some water for Lily?

 

Rook rolled his eyes, "Depends, are you going to use it to break my back again?"

 

"Har har, you're so funny." Blaze said sarcastically, "Look I need to talk to you about something important."

 

Starbolt got out of her chair, "I guess this means Lily's awake? I'll go check up on her." She left down the hall.

 

***

 

Rook and Blaze bought a water bottle at the Hospital gift shop. On their way back to Lily's room, Blaze started to talk about names.

 

"....Trotting Nathan Turbo!'

 

"Blaze, are you trying to make the poor foal bullied when he grows up?" Rook sighed.

 

"Fine fine, ugh. Ummmmm Tiberius Nitro Tiger?"

 

"That's not much of an-"

 

"I wanna give him a explosive reference for a name! If his initials were TNT, that'd be awesome." Blaze beamed.

 

"For you, perhaps. For the poor foal who will grow up with a stupid name like that? Not so much."

 

"Ugh fine. What do you suggest?"

 

"Nexus is a fine name. Just name him Nexus."

 

"But that's boring! It's only one name!"

 

"Blaze, we only have one name." Rook rolled his eyes. "Nexus is nice, classy, projects intelligence, and rather unique."

 

"But it's not explosive! Besides, you only suggested it because of that filly you had a crush on for a little while when we were foals."

 

Rook did a light smile and shook his head, "It's a unisex name. C'mon blaze, just consider it."

 

"No, it's not... explosive enough."

 

"UGH! Naming your kid after explosives has 'bad idea' written all over it!"

 

"Well, he's my kid."

 

"Not really. In all technicality, you're not his biological father. Your-"

 

"I get it, I get it" Blaze lowered his smug look.

 

"If anything, it's all Lily's say."

 

"I know, I know."

 

"Which is why she'll agree with me and the Nexus name."

 

"Awwww, c'mon, can we think of some sorta compromise?"

 

"Ugh, fine. Thermite. Thermite Nexus. You like that better?"

 

Blaze stopped and rubbed his chin, "so Tiberius Nexus Therm-"

 

"NO! Thermite Nexus. Two names is classy. Three isn't"

 

Blaze and Rook stared each other down for a moment. Blaze conceded, "Fine"

 

"Look, we'll ask somepony. Hey, you!" Rook waved over a brown Unicorn walking (more limping) down the hall. "What do you think of Thermite Nexus as name?"

''I would call my child 'The Foal With No Name'.. Wait, nah. That's too long.'' Linus said out loud while noticing the brown unicorn. ''I feel like I know him from somewhere..'' Linus had said to himself while noticing the limping unicorn. ''Hey! Did I try to kill you once?'' Linus asked the brown unicorn. ''I'm screwed.''

(Kay, I'm here. Sorry for being late, there were some complications)

Gears looked behind him, and saw no one.

"Anything besides Grinding as a first name is okay, I guess."

He looked over to Linus.

"I don't know, were you apart of that mob in Baltimare? Or that one in Fillydelphia? Or perhaps that one in Coltifornia? Or maybe it was the one in Manehatten?"

''Well, I've been everywhere latel- I'm not going to answer that.'' Linus said while shivering. If he told this new unicorn that he was a hired assassin, he would have his flank kicked off to the moon. And everpony knows how ponies need air to live. And the moon doesn't have any.

"Wow. Who'd you tick off?" Blaze asked. "I mean, I've had my fair share of time on the run but that was just from-" Rook nudged him, trying to keep the whole running from the cops thing from spilling out, despite it being a long time ago.

 

"Grinding? I think I've heard of that name from somewhere. We're you that one pony who sent that weird flying thing crashing into town hall in Baltimare?" Rook inquired. "I think I read about that in a police file awhile ago."

(Lucky guess :))

 

"Cool! I love anything that can cause chaos!" Blaze exclaimed. "I'm a professional explosive expert, if I do say so myself." Rook gave him a death stare. "What? I only nearly blew up the house twice. And nopony ever gets hurt when I detonate them." Blaze said proudly.

"So you blow things up for fun? I just do it on accident. An expected accident, but nonetheless an accident. And I have two robots named Rhoda and Dolan. They're a... Interesting couple."

His goggles fell down to his face, but he quickly pushed them back into his hat.

''Dolan?'' Linus said while snorting into his hoof. ''Yeah, Blaze tends to have his fair share of accidental explosions as well..'' He said while shivering at the thought of another explosion. ''Well, my name is Linus. This is Rook, and you'll meet Hormo- I mean.. Lily, later.'' Linus said with a slight tone of fear.

"Well, birds of a feather, I see?" Rook said, knowing full well Blaze didn't know what he said. "You know what? I'm going to check on my marefriend, see if Lily's giving her a hard time..." Rook shuffled away from Gears and Blaze before they got a chance to blow something up.

"So, how'd you do that?" Blaze said pointing at the cast Gears had. "Did you get caught by one of the mobs or did was that an accident? And what exactly did they chase you out for? I've been blowing things up here and I've yet to be chased out." He said trying to forget about that one time when he was celebrating Rook's birthday.

((OOC: I would like Blaze and Gears to walk in on this portion talking about whatever Gears was doing after Rook posts))

Lily and Starbolt were sitting down laughing together.

"And then he crashed into the ground with his feathered contraption poking him in the eye!" Lily exclaimed while laughing.

"And you're telling me that Rook, one of the ponies with the most common sense did that??" Starbolt asked. She couldn't help but laugh.

"Yep! You know what they say about common sense? It's not all that common. If it weren't for Blaze, Rook would never have tried to fly in elementary school." Lily said.

"I see you've told her that embarrassing encounter I had with the dirt." Rook said as he stood in the door way.

"C'mon, Rook. You know I was going to tell that special somepony that one day." Lily said with a chuckle. "Now I know Blaze has been cutting you a lot of slack lately, so I'll remind you. Don't you have a question you want to ask Starbolt?"

Aw great.. they bring that up....

 

"Yeah Rook. It seems that every time you try to ask me that, something comes up."

 

"Yeah, like my baby." Lily and Starbolt laughed.

 

Rook smiled and rolled his eyes. "Well, you know what they say... why ask if it's raining if it is raining."

 

"Ah, but when you ask a wise question, you get a wise answer." Starbolt smirked.

 

"Har har. We should play chess soon. Perhaps you'll beat me at my own game again."

 

"Ok Rook, stop stalling!" Lily said.

 

Rook paused for a moment. "Not here, not now Star. I'll ask you... when the time is right."

"So you're telling me you created a machine that could deposit a drink from the fridge right next to me?" Linus asked.

 

"Yeah. Until it blew up when I mixed some chemicals to create fuel for my flying machine. Lost all the blueprints and was chased out of that town as well." Gears said as he limped next to Blaze. "And how have you not been run out of town yet? From what you've told me, you've done enough damage to get sentenced to the loony bin for five lifetimes." 

 

"Eh, we make up excuses. Gas leaks, faulty fuses, bad detonators," Blaze said as they arrived at the hospital room. "Unicorns who know how to put a fire out in less than a second and rebuild the house in the same time frame." he said as he looked at Rook. 
 

"And if you do it again, I will send you to the loony bin." he replied. 

 

"No you wouldn't. You don't have the heart to." Blaze taunted.

 

"I wouldn't test him Blaze." Lily said. "He's still stressed about that question he's been meaning to ask." 

 

"What question?" Gears asked.

 

"Oh you know, just the simple-" Blaze was cut off.

 

"Just the simple question on whether or not Blaze should keep his rights to living in the same house as me." Rook said, giving him a warning glare.

 

"That bad, huh?" Gears said.

"Yeah. I swear.... If he's out of my sight for 10 seconds, something will explode...."

 

"That also happens when he's in your sight." Starbolt laughed. She yawned. "Wow.... it's like 4 in the morning.... I have school tomorrow!"

 

"You're.... still in school?" Gears asked, somewhat bewildered.

 

"Ha ha, not like that. I'm a teacher! Which reminds me...Rook, you sure you want to come to school with me and meet my class?"

 

"Positive." Rook said.

 

"Great! You sure it won't mess with your work?"

 

"I think Crater owes me enough for me to have another break day."

 

"Haha, ok. Then it's -"

 

A white earth pony with a red cross cutie mark walked into the room, "Alright, Alright. Time for you all to go home!"

 

"Visiting hours are over?" Lily asked.

 

"Not really. They don't even start for another 6 hours. Anyway, the new Mom is going to need some rest."

 

Lily paused for a moment, "Wow... yeah.. i'm a mom......"

"We got you covered!" Blaze said. "You can live with us!"

 

"Blaze!" Rook exclaimed. "Think before you speak! We don't have room-"

 

"Of course we do! We have an extra guest room that we had whenever your parents visited. It can be Gears' room. Besides, you know I don't like your parents visiting. It forces me to be careful with my free time." Blaze said.

''I thought your free time was spent nearly killing me by mistake.'' Linus said while shivering. It was the first thing he had said since.. Like, 2 pages. Roleplaying wise, of course. ''So, we meet a down on his luck inventor, and a colt with a defense system his grandpa installed? This can only end happily.'' Linus joked.

***Back at Rook and Starbolt's house***

 

"Why couldn't we bring Gears?" Blaze whined as they opened the door to the house.

 

"Because I can't deal with another one of you..." Rook mumbled as he pushed Blaze to the side and walking up the stairs to his bedroom.

 

"I think what Rook means," Starbolt said, "is that Gears doesn't need to stay with us. He's already got a home."

 

"Besides, aren't you a bit concerned about your marefriend staying at the hospital?" Linus said as he walked in.

 

"Yeah I am.... Hey, Rook... where's Linus staying?" Blaze asked, shutting the door.

 

"Lily's not here, right?" Rook said from the top of the stairs, "Let him sleep where she sleeps..."

 

"But Lily and I share a bed...."

 

"Dont worry. You and Linus are a perfect couple." Rook said sarcastically as he slammed the door to his room.

 

Blaze looked confused. "Why does he seem so pissed at me?"

 

Starbolt sighed, "I don't know... normally he can put up with you, but maybe the dam is overflowing..."

 

"You saying he needs to use the bathroom?" Linus said. Starbolt looked to see if he was joking, but it seemed he had a puzzled look.

 

"Uh... Its a metaphor."

 

"Oh.... now I feel stupid..." Linus said with a facehoof.

 

"Anyway, I should go check to see if Rook's alright... He seems a bit stressed..." Starbolt went up the stairs to their room.

 

"Well time for bed... after you, honey?" Linus joked. Blaze gave him a punch.

 

 

****

 

 

"Rook? You ok?" Starbolt said as she opened the door. Rook was lying on the bed, facedown in a pillow. "Rook, there's... there's been something I've been meaning to talk to you about...."

 

Starbolt sat on the bed, facing away from him, "Rook, we've known each other for... I guess nine, ten months now? Umm... Well... eleven if you count us meeting for the first time. I guess it's not as long as other couples. I mean, Blaze and Lily have know each other for years, and they only really discovered their love recently."

 

"I dunno, I guess I'm rambling or something. I know we haven't been together for that long, but... I've never have felt this strongly about something like this before. I mean, I was in a few, really short relationships before this, and none of them really amounted to anything. Nothing like this one. We've trekked across landscapes, run away from bad guys... Hell, you even survived my parents." Starbolt laughed quietly.

 

"To think I was ready to forget you after you stood me up -twice I might add- for our first date. Then you came and whisked me away. I guess that's what makes it romantic. No formal date, just... an adventure."

 

"I'm at a loss for words, really. I feel so lucky that I ended up with you. I'd figure somepony as great as you would be snatched up by some super model or actress...  And yet you still say you're the lucky one."

 

"It always seems that way, the best stallions are always taken. Somehow, you weren't." Starbolt giggled a bit, "Well, now you are, I suppose. But i'm just surprised it's with me."

 

Starbolt stroked Rook's mane, "You're probably the most handsomest pony I've ever met, but that's certainly not the whole story. Sometimes..... the heart sees what is invisible to the eye. I know you always feel bad that you're no 'knight in shining armour', but you don't have to be. Your wisdom, insight, finesse, compassion, they all win out over mindless brawn. And I," Starbolt gave Rook's ear a kiss, "welcome that in my kingdom..."

 

As Starbolt walked off to get ready for bed, Rook reflected over what she said. After thinking for a few minutes or so, he whispered his conclusion to himself:

 

"Wheresoever she is, there is Eden"

 

 

 

 

 

((OOC: Ok ok, i'm sorry for the sappy romance. I normally dont write like that. I just had to get a lot off my chest, and this was the best way I thought to do it.))

''Just to make it clear, I'm sleeping on the floor. The last thing I would ever do is share a bed with you. Or I would watch every episode of The Colbert Report?'' He muttered the last part to himself while rolling his eyes. ''Ah, well. I'm tired. All that silence can really tire a guy out.'' Linus said while rubbing his eyes. ''So, this is the part where I fall on the floor awkwardly.'' Linus said as he flopped onto the floor and closed his eyes.
