No, those things are dangerous. [Moving right along...he's also letting his hand idly play with Dave's hair.] Is it dumb I can't get over how glad I am to have an actual kitchen and a laundry room we don't have to share with a bunch of people?
[ it's stressful and soothing at the same time, dave can't tell which is stronger. ] I miss the college laundry experience of one weird creepy person in the room whenever you have to use it at all times.
[A little, but not really for the reasons Dave might assume. So instead he just does as advised and chills, going quiet and letting his hand continue what it's doing with Dave's hair. He still can't see very well without his glasses and he doesn't move back, keeping himself close and letting himself kind of watch Dave for a few moment.
There's a lot to think about, but that's for him to think about later.
He doesn't say much but he does shift forward for another brief kiss, so there's that.]
[ it gets dave to open his eyes enough to squint at john, though he'd kissed back just as briefly. ]
You're a goddamned nuisance. [ but it's said so mildly he can't actually mind. then: ] Maybe I do want to go back to sleep, dork. [ or at least to zone out. he slides an arm around john's middle and turns his face towards john's shoulder, hiding from his too-awake boyfriend. ]
[There's no verbal reply but he's shaking with silent laughter so. Whatever. He doesn't speak up again and won't until Dave wants him to, but he shifts to accommodate for Dave's arm and also his face. It's fine. He doesn't really care and he's likely to go back to sleep this way but he's also not planning on letting Dave leave anytime soon.
Granted. He's not great at going back to sleep after he's been up and also he hasn't quite calmed down from working himself up earlier, but at least he's physically at rest even if his mind isn't.]
[ whatever else is going on, dave seems to be capable of flipping himself off without too much trouble. his breathing is perfectly measured and he doesn't seem frustrated from earlier in the least. it gets less measured after a little while in the more natural rhythm of drifting off, so one of those rare moments of actually seeing dave fall asleep might be john's to have to treasure and maybe not ruin by moving around a lot. bye john. ]
[Everything else can be dealt with later. He stays awake and calm and still, a solid presence for Dave to cling onto as he drifts back to sleep. Bye Dave, rest well.
John's going to stay rigid and not move at all until Dave wakes up because disturbing him would be Awful. ...but at least he looks at ease like this. That's nice.]

Thanks but no thanks. I'm a lot happier without people stealing my socks at least.
