[He can't quite imagine he wasn't that hungry when he's not even sure he ate today, but Axel isn't going to argue with him. He's not a little kid, he can do what he wants, but everyone should have room in their life for a few strawberries, right?
[Axel looks at him sidelong when he falters, and then makes a 'hmm' sound, mostly to himself. There it is again, that feeling like Riku wants to talk about something, but feels like it's not his place to put the spotlight on himself. Even if it's subconscious, you don't bring something up if you don't actually want to talk about it, right?]
You know what I do when I wanna get my mind off stuff? [A beat of silence, and then his face is very serious.] Nap. [Yup.] Bad day? Take a nap. Pissed off at somebody? Take a nap. Everything looks a little better after a nap, I'm tellin' ya, you should really try it sometime.
