Aidan was raised on the belief that there's more benefit to a holistic approach, which means taking care of Kai beyond just his physical fatigue and that sometimes means getting him to go enjoy the beauty of a sunrise while munching on a fresh croissant. This is what they do, zipping along the mostly empty roads of the Keys as they head for the beaches, the sky gradually lightening from twilight grey as hazy streaks of colour start to paint the previously blank canvas above them. Sal's deli is open, the portly owner greeting the two with his usual cheery attitude, fresh croissants immediately plucked out for them to take while the coffee is politely declined, and then Aidan's parking the bike to find a spot in the grass above the sandy beach to sprawl on.

"How are you feeling?" Aidan asks as they take their seats, offering up the paper bag of pastry to Kai to take his pick from. "Not too stiff?"
