Wrecking Home
Night's here. I don't have to keep watch for this shift, so I went straight for bed.
When you're real tired, there's not much thought that goes into preparing for sleep. You don't act, you just do.
Bed's all warm, blanket's over my body, and all I gotta do now...is turn off the lamp.
'least that was what I was thinkin' as I closed my eyes. Then, with the most terrible timing ever, the door knocked.

Grrrahh...

Heathcliff
REVENGE
Bloody hell-! Can't you bother me about whatever it is in the morn—

Kiya

I can't sleep.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
Oh.
Even though my eyes are barely registering shite, I know better than to say no to him of all people.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
What, is your room flooded again?

Kiya
替紋
No, but I keep hearing thumping.
That was probably Ishmael. If she's not in the night shift, she usually ends the day taking out anger in her room...
Whatever. Not like this was an actual problem.

Kiya
替紋
Will you let me in?

Heathcliff
REVENGE
What if I don't let you? What'll happen?

Kiya
替紋
You're not gonna stop me.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
...Aye, fair enough.
I never say no to him nowadays. Kiya comes in with a fish pillow on hand and he climbs onto my bed without hesitation.
My bed could fit two people in it. I made it so.
This happens every now and then, where one of us would barge into the other person's room and sleep over like it's nobody's business.
And for me, I'm not exactly in the mood to give a damn.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
You, uh...You gonna cuddle with it all night?

Kiya
替紋
I was planning to. What, jealous?

Heathcliff
REVENGE
Of a fish? Hell no.

Kiya
替紋
...Pfft-

Heathcliff
REVENGE
Shut it and move.
He scooches over and I lie down, pulling the blankets over the both of us. Doesn't take long for him to settle on my chest.

Kiya
替紋
If I knew that you ran out of fucks to give I wouldn't have brought the pillow with me.

Kiya
替紋
Whatever. You're better anyway.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
I'm gonna rub that in yer face someday.

Kiya
替紋
Don't care. Goodnight.

Heathcliff
REVENGE
Niiiiight~
I'm glad we're used to each other now. Back then, the mere thought of this would've made me cringe.
But this is alright.
