Rin woke up the next morning to his entire body screaming at him.
The goblin fight hadn't felt that intense while it was happening, adrenaline had carried him through, but now every muscle ached, his arms were covered in bruises from blocking attacks, his legs felt like concrete from all the movement.
He dragged himself to the shower, stood under hot water for twenty minutes trying to convince his body to function.
His phone buzzed with notifications, he checked it while getting dressed.
Joy: you feel like death too right
Joy: because i feel like death
Joy: everything hurts
Rin: same
Joy: want to grab food? actual food not that association cafeteria garbage
Rin: where
Joy: theres a place in downtown that does good breakfast. real eggs, real bacon, none of that synthetic protein shit
Rin: send address
She sent the location, some diner called Rosie's, Rin called a car because driving seemed like too much effort.
