"BLOOD WHY IS IT SO FREAKING BRIGHT?" I yelled, my head immediately beginning to explode a bit because of the awful headache I happened to be suffering from. I buried myself under the blankets, emitting an odd humming noise like an irritated bumblebee, and curled up into a ball.

"Miss Toki?" I heard he-with-an-amazing-hat shout back (okay, so he probably wasn't shouting. But whatever.) "Are you quite alright?" I feel the need to note the extreme amusement in his voice at my hangover.

"Nooooooooooooooo. I hattteee youuuuuuuuuuuu."

"You were the one drinking, if I do recall."

"You. Gave. IT. TO. ME."

"You accepted it from me."

I tried to think of a witty comeback, but all I came up with were the lovely options of "your mom" and "your face". So I combined the two in my fit of not wanting to think.

"My... face's mother has nothing to do with this, Miss Toki." I heard the Hatter walk over to the bed and sit down beside me, imagining that he had some really dumb expression on his face for my personal entertainment, and I pushed my hand out from under the covers to poke him. Because I'm Toki and it made sense at the time.

"Miss Toki, might I ask why I can't so much as touch you without being accused of sexual harassment, but you can poke me there?"

"EwwwIdidn'tmeantoyoupervertshutupIcan'tevenseeyouyoufreak." (What I said.)

"Ewwwidmeeohahshu'upIcan'evnseyoufeeak." (What I sounded like.)

Toki+an awful headache=total nonsense, in case you hadn't guessed. I'm not even sure if that's like, a valid hangover symptom. Maybe I was still drunk. Whatever the case, no one cares. After Blood informed me he was only being a perv and that I actually just poked his leg as planned I made him close every curtain in the room and turn off anything that generated light (including the digital clock I had insisted be used in the house, but that was more because I wanted to irritate him than the brightness) and took a nap.

I woke up in a cycle, drowsily creeping over to Blood's desk and leaning over his shoulder as he worked on an immense stack of papers I didn't find relevant to being a mafia boss. "Blood~, what're you doing?" I asked, slowly reaching my hand that was out of his sight toward his headgear.

"I had a few things that needed signed, so I took care of them while waiting for you." (Read "so I took care of them while you were sleeping so you didn't obliterate my work"). He lifted the hat off the desk just as I reached for it, never looking up from his work, making me fall over because my balance is equivalent to that of a newly hatched chicken, but at least he caught me. "How are you feeling?" He set down his pen, which in order to follow the theme naturally had a little hat. I was beginning to think at that point that he had like, a hat fetish or something.

"Better."

"That's good. Would you care for some tea or anything?"

"I'm never drinking your "tea" again. I thought this was established." (Was it?)

"Very well, suit yourself." He grinned evilly. "You're quite fun when you're drunk, though."

I tossed him a death glare and crossed my arms, sitting on the ground beside his chair and kicking his feet a few times. "Tokis are always fun, I'll have you know."

Just then my favorite faceless knocked on the door and came in, carrying a tray of the evil leafy-juice that Blood was addicted to. "Aido~!" I shouted, giving him an amazing hug. Well, he stepped to the side a bit so I didn't really get to the hugging, but whatever.

"Er… Hello, Miss Toki. I brought you your tea, sir." Blood nodded and the servant set the tray on his desk, looking (does it count as 'looking'?) at me again. "Miss Toki, there's someone waiting at the gate for you."

"Ew. Who is it?"

"A soldier from Heart Castle." Mr. Hatter seemed interested at this and got up.

"I believe I'll accompany you, if you wouldn't mind," he announced, coming over to me and pulling me to his side. I love when he gets all jealous, it's awesome.

"Um… alright." And so, we skipped walked outside, where we were greeted by the Heart Castleian soldier.

There was also someone else, though. Because life's a freaking bugger, you know.

"Hahahaha~, hi Toki~!"

/AN. Yeah, this chapter's sort of… Meh. I set it down for too long again and ended up writing it in three parts. I found Toki's original self the other day… I was writing a Final Fantasy VIII fanfic about my delinquent persona Haru, and she sounded like a slightly-worse written version of Toki XD And had a friend obsessed with bagels O.o
