[ They shrug. They're fine sleeping without one but if it floats his boat... they pluck the crystal from the bed, typing with one hand before they move to stand. ]
Thanks For letting me use this
[ Did they add the "for letting me use this" belatedly to avoid him thinking the thanks was for anything else? We'll never know (the answer is yes). Anyway, they don't waste time getting out of his proximity, feeling exhausted both from the time of night and from the emotional consequences of digging up their past. It's making them feel more and more like they need to retreat to the comfort of isolation, so they walk out of his room wordlessly after plucking the other two gems from the crate. They don't need him to tell them how to move cushions, after all. ]
[ not so fast, gem-kun. Lupin's not about to let them leave just like that - especially not after actually opening up to him a little bit. Before they can flee the room, he pulls a sheet off his bed in one smooth motion, even with the laptop on it (that's some Lupin magic for you, Cairngorm), and, gently, he sets it on their shoulders. They always feel so cold, after all. ]
There. And thank you for helping me out. [ and not laughing at him too much while he looks like a fool!! He gives them a playful smile, patting their shoulder once before stepping back. ] Sweet dreams. Try not to break the couch.
