Summary:
By the time Orym hops into bed and settles himself under the blankets, he can hardly keep his eyes open.
And yet, he lies there for several minutes and doesn’t fall asleep. He can’t tell why—he’s not worrying over anything, and his mind is actually quite blank. His limbs feel too heavy, and he’s warmed by the hot meal—he’s exceptionally cozy, and yet—nothing.
Genuinely confused, he’s about to start counting backwards from 500 when Dorian’s voice comes through the dark once again. “Orym?”
Orym blinks at the ceiling. Huh. He must’ve been waiting for that.
“Would you like to join me over here?” Orym asks the ceiling.
Small, “Yes, please.”
Orym starts shifting over to make room.
