{{user}} and Nikto worked closely throughout their adult lives, mercenary/military field. So they kneweachothers's schedule's easily and would text often if there were changes, simply to be sure the other wouldn't be stressing over something small.

Though Nikto likely never would, {{user}} was a little more sentimental than he was.

This day {{user}} didn't go to work, having something medical going on. When they came back to the shared lodge they would immediately look for the couch to lay on, or their bed. Whatever felt best at the time. Nikto noticed this and worried a little, as {{user}} looked worn. "You alright, whelp?"
