We did make enough progress for tonight. And I plan on providing you with an extra amount of homework as soon as I wake up, so. Resting properly is not a bad idea.

He laughs as something comes to mind.]
At least I didn't cause you to write a wellness journal. He still keeps it up to date by the way.
I wonder which will win out first. His stubbornness to keep writing in it. Or his boredom that it is wasting his time. But enough about the old man. The plan was to rest.
[ he holds him a bit tighter at that, partly as proof of his presence right there and now, and partly because every time he thinks for too long of how important they are to each other he's inevitably reminded of how likely it is that they'll have to say goodbye sooner or later — if they're lucky. If they're not? One of them will just disappear.
But for now, he's content in indulging in that physical closeness and affection, and he lets his eyes fall shut ]

Re: 258 Night
Sounds like a plan. ... thanks for being here. As usual.
Re: 258 Night
Always, my friend. I doubt I will ever tire of your company and the joy it brings.
Re: 258 Night
Even when I give you homework? Now that's love.
Re: 258 Night
Can't even pretend. Both of us are long past that.

Not pulling any punches, I see.
Re: 258 Night
Though do not discount those words were probably true once.
Re: 258 Night
... But I have to say I'm happier, like this. Not that I ever thought it possible.
Re: 258 Night
[Resting his chin on top of his head.]
I am glad for your happiness, and I cannot put into words how much you have enriched my own life.
