[sighs]

I didn't want to stop and forget everything.

[silverspotlight]

You still have to take care of yourself! You worry people, acting like that.

[noteasybeinggreen]

[embarrassed headscratch]

I don't mean to.

[silverspotlight]

[leans on you anyway]

It's okay, though. It happens sometimes!

[noteasybeinggreen]

[arm goes around you automatically]

[silverspotlight]

[aw yeaaaah loose hugs time]

Just pace yourself! Maybe I should start checking on you...

[noteasybeinggreen]

You'd do that for me?

[silverspotlight]

Yeah! I'll drag you to bed next time, so watch out!

[behold: it is the sound of your reaction flying over his head]

[noteasybeinggreen]

[I have lived too long on the good ship Gay Subtext to be quite that innocent]

[silverspotlight]

[I am just dense]

What's the matter? Is a bedtime really that shocking?

[noteasybeinggreen]

[you are adorable and I wouldn't have you any other way]

What? Um. No?

[silverspotlight]

[B| INVESTIGATE]

Okay. I mean, I just want you to get good rest. [pokes your forehead]

[noteasybeinggreen]

[oh crap]

[thwaps your hand]

There's just always so much to do! Do you get enough sleep?!

[silverspotlight]

[thwaps your thwapping hand!]

Of course I do! I go to bed at nine and get up at five!

[noteasybeinggreen]

[thwaps YOUR thwappin' hand with other hand]

That's awfully early. But I know the laundry takes forever.

[silverspotlight]

And it's pretty useless asking the others... I'll help you with the laundry if you want, then!

[thwaps your FACE]

[noteasybeinggreen]

Yes, Ahim tries but really... and I wouldn't let Marvelous near my washing machine even if he begged!

[head snaps back, flicks you on the forehead]

[silverspotlight]

He'd probably hurt himself on it honestly. . .

[thinks about this a minute before mashing your cheek]

[noteasybeinggreen]

Yes, I really wouldn't want to deal with him trying to eat the spray stain remover or anything.

[pouts, tweaks your nose]

[silverspotlight]

So it's settled!

[just pats your head now]

I'll help with the laundry so you can get in bed at a reasonable time!

[noteasybeinggreen]

[not quite sure what happened but I'll yawn and rest my face on your tiny little shoulder anyway]

Thanks, Gai.

[silverspotlight]

No problem. [leaning in to nuzzle your hair a little and smile] Do you want to take a quick nap now? I could... probably sleep too.

[noteasybeinggreen]

[this is not a giggle, I am far too manl- okay fine so it was a giggle]

[yawning] I have to move? But you're comfortable.
