[ dryly ]

That was in the context of biting or bopping intruders, not glomping me.

[ but the grumpiness is just TSUN, without any real bite to it. with a sigh, she picks up her book ]

It applies to many aspects of my life. I can't win all debates by dental assault.

[He is quite familiar with tsun, he has watched the animes.]

[ grumble, grumble ]

Uh huh. You're lucky you're cute.

[ewjaoeijawioew]

[Excuse him, he will just grab a pillow and put it over his head because he is STAYING HERE, but also this ASSAULT on his emotions!]

[ REVENGE IS HERS

nevermind that it's factually correct and a genuine compliment!! ]

Heh. [ With that, she seems to finally actually start to settle; some of that lingering tension bleeds away, and her wings droop out of their tight tuck ]

[Compliments are always appreciated, but also unexpected and when its a kind he has no preparation for, he is just going to get flustered and will prefer to bury himself while he deals with the warm fuzzy feelings.]

[People keep saying CUTE and its WEIRD and nice, but W E I R D.]

[But he will figure out an angle to read this book while draped on this girl who clearly needs a nap and also more contact in her life. He'll have to recruit Raph, he thinks.]

[ unfortunately for him, the book on botany is both interesting and engagingly written. it's at least an hour before she even starts to nod, and longer still until her grip on the book slips ]

[He catches the book when it slips.]

[Ninja awareness is a powerful thing.]

[He'll bookmark the page with a piece of scrap paper and sets it aside and he'll keep reading his book.]

[Its been a while since he's gotten to just read for pleasure and he'll take advantage while bullying someone else into self care.]

[ donatello hamato is RUDE and he will GET WHAT'S COMING TO HIM ]

[ at some point. later. after much-needed naps. ]

[That is the Donnie life TO BE QUITE HONEST.]

[He is a rude boy who needs karma payback of all sorts.]

[But for now, reading and nap time, shell yeah.]

[ he gets a solid couple of hours of peace before her breathing very subtly changes. she stays loose and floppy, it sure LOOKS like she's asleep, but awareness is trickling back and she's Assessing, reminding herself of where she is, that it's donnie leaning against her.

which is ... ????

fine? SHE GUESSES THAT'S FINE.

only then does she let herself go through the true motions of waking up ]

Mrghh.

Good afternoon, Korone-san. Feeling better?

[He's almost done with this incredibly thick book.]

Afternoon? Huh. [ and a mumble, mostly to herself ] Turtlepiles really are powerful.

[ Stretches her legs and rubs her eyes, but doesn't otherwise move ]

That makes almost a full night's sleep. Nice. [ JOKINGLY. And yet? ]

They are, yes.

[He knows what they're like.]

[He looks up from his book, quirking an eyebrow.] ...wow, you and Leo are gonna get along so well.

In my ... our? defense, sleep is hard.

I am quite aware, but that doesn't make it less necessary. Especially when innovation isn't the reason you're up.

Sometimes I'm up because of video games.

There are no video games here.

But there will be if I have any say in it. If Hunter-kun can get a sewing machine, I can get a Gameboy.

[Awwww, he was gonna make him one. Nts, check on that.]

Of course there will be video games eventually, but that is still some time. And you need sleep.

Jokes aside [ not that wanting video games is a joke. please. please let her have stress relief. ] I do try to sleep.

... I'm kinda hoping that none of the people who would notice end up here, but if they do - they would notice. And I won't be able to help my team effectively if I'm sleep deprived.

[Video games are very serious business.]

Add Raph to that list. I swear he's developed some way to smell sleep deprivation. Too many days and he will find you if he's found you even remotely charming.

If he clocks me as an insomniac as quickly as I clocked him as a big brother, I'm in danger.

[ reaches for her book; she's comfy now, and she doesn't want to move just yet ]

[He will hand the book back, bookmarked and everything.]

You may get two weeks before he determines what is the difference between sleeping well and not.

Or you could just come to the pillow fort. I'm usually awake about two hours before dawn anyway.

That's -

Honestly tempting. Uhm. You sure that'd be okay?
