well! gu yun comes in quietly, taking the time to take off his boots and his upper layer before carefully pulling back the covers enough to slide into the leftover space... if there is any.
when he speaks, his voice is a pleasant rumble. ] Goodness, did I leave the bedwarmer on?
[she makes space! she blearily blinks her eyes open - she's still monsterfied, but she's not burning, just kind of a subdued version of the lava monster. she inches closer to him, resting her head against his chest.]
Mmhm. That's now my job. No more Avatar duties for me.
[ you know. corpse fingers. gu yun shifts down in bed a bit and pulls up the covers over his shoulders and hers, draping his arm across her waist and getting comfortable, tucking his cheek against his other arm and folding it under his head. ]
Hmm. You can always appear down here, you know - I won't complain.
And I'm as well as I can be. Better now, I think. It feels like we're getting somewhere, though... [ . . .
gu yun trails off, as if he's remembering something, and he like. attempts to lift his arm off of wrath for a second?? are you sticky too or is it just participants... . ]
[ he just... drops his head and laughs, a low snort that turns into silent, mirthful laughter, shoulders shaking a bit with it. ]
We're going to be stuck like this for hours, if what's happened with the others is any indication. [ bonding...after gu yun managed to avoid being sticky all day!! ] Well! I hope you were planning on staying the night.
[ he's teasing, though, clearly not actually bothered. ]
[ but they’re getting somewhere. so there’s that, at least. clingy is fine; the warmth lup radiates makes him sleepy anyhow, and he doesn’t mind being close. ] Writing letters to your brother?
[she sounds sleepy herself. subdued.] Not that uh, not that he'll ever get them, probably, but it makes me feel better to have some record that I existed at all.
Aren't you supposed to be an excellent cook? Have you been feeding me teeth? Lup.
[ this is very stupid, but he eggs it on anyway, because it's just a fact of life that the happier and more at peace gu yun is the more annoying he is. therefore, he uses one of those stuck limbs to dig his fingers into her side. hehehe no escape ]
Sometimes they do, depending on how early in the morning. [ stop
he does stop poking at her though, settling his hand back against the flat of lup's back instead and making himself comfortable. of all of the options of people to be stuck to, this is a pretty ideal option. ]
You know, you're welcome to sleep here whenever you like. Whenever you're finished, tomorrow, and return - I'd be more surprised not to find you in this bed, I think.

Tired. I haven't really slept since Monday. [she says, with a little laugh.] Are you okay?

no subject
I am now. [...] I don't have anywhere else to be.
no subject
How lucky for me. [ mm... ] Your bed is rather comfortable, though. What’s been going on up there?
no subject
Just research. Writing letters, uh, helping Greed try to figure some things out. Trying to avoid the - thing. It's mad. We're poking a hornet's nest.

there’s a pause. almost imperceptibly, his arm tightens around her. ]
...are you all planning to go do something like Pride and the others did, last time?
no subject
Nah. I'll be fine. I just have some stuff I'm going to fix.
no subject
his palm flattens out against her back, and gu yun frowns over her shoulder, worry creasing his brow. ]
Don't pull teeth from tiger's mouths. [ and be careful, though he doesn't say it. ] Perhaps you'll be giving me a gray hair, this time.
no subject
[that's not how that saying goes]

[ TEETH OMLET?? He just
Starts laughing, honestly, a little hysterically as he turns his face to the side, into the pillows to muffle his snort. ]

Yeah! Keep up! Haven't you heard that saying before!

I'm going to feed you your own if you don't stop poking me! [this means nothing because she would never.]
no subject
And ruin my smile? You wouldn't. You love my smile. [ what a fucking goblin ]
no subject
Unfortunately. [she tells him, teasing.] Stop poking me. You're my pillow, pillows don't poke.

and then she sinks into his side with a sigh.]
... I might take you up on that. [she murmurs.] After everything, I'll uh, I'll take what I can get.
[whatever grace he'll give her.]
no subject
that's better, anyway. he tips his chin up, resting it on top of her head. if they're stuck there, it's fine.
for a moment, his eyes flick open, looking at the wall across. ]
So take, then. [ a little softer. ] You may be surprised at what there is to give.
