[The sun had set a long time ago. The tea had settled and become luke warm, if not cold. The gentle incandescent light of the lamps were supplemented by flickering candles. Gentle moonlight filtered in from the large windows of her late father's study. Together they both sat on one of the long sofas flanking an antique wooden coffee table.

Tohsaka's eyes felt heavy. Almost as heavy as the tome in her hand. She has spent the last five minutes attempting to reread the same paragraph again and again as her brain refuses to retain anything this late.]

[ At the same time, Shirogane had been reading and note-taking close to Tohsaka, studying for his upcoming exams. While he felt a drowsiness come on, he was kind of used to it. All nighters were par for the course, and he'd pretty much trained himself to operate on maybe 3 or 4 hours of sleep.

It wasn't healthy in the slightest, but that's the price he pays.

His eyes momentarily scan over to Tohsaka, who hadn't seemed to turn her page in a while now... hmm. ]

Do you want to take a break?

[erbe]

[Shirogane's sudden voice gives Tohsaka a start. She jolts upright, and for a brief moment she looks somewhat awake. That fades fast, though. Her heavy lids fall, and the soft light of the room lulls her back into that sleepy atmosphere.]

Mrmm... a break?

[taketori]

Yeah. You're not going to retain any more information like that.

[ So he says, as drowsy as he is too. ]

...any more tea?

[erbe]

Nnnn... needs to be reheated, I think.

[Tohsaka touches her cup, and... yep. It's cold.]

[taketori]

Right... mm, gimme a second, I'll go heat it up...

[ ...he yawns, in response. Actually, he closes his book and leans back on his spot on the couch. ]

Just... give me a moment.

[erbe]

You... you said that twice. Are you falling asleep?

[Get it together, Miyuki!!! Because Rin sure isn't. His moving has roused her, but... Well she's going to snuggle up on her side on the couch and rest her head on his lap.]

[taketori]

[ Miyuki shakes his head, petting Rin's head a bit. ]

I said minute, then moment... can't really move now...

[ He's not complaining, really. ]

[erbe]

[Tohsaka nuzzles in against his lap much like a cat fidgeting to get its preferred spot just right before it sleeps.]

Hahaha... you are falling asleep.

[taketori]

Look who's talking...

[ Mumbling, as Shirogane just pats down her hair before tapping her shoulder. ]

Are you comfortable like that?

[erbe]

Mrmmm you're the one who said he'd get up. Guess we aren't getting any tea?

[Tohsaka has to stifle a yawn.]

[taketori]

Guess not...

[ He on the other hand, is just going to do that, trying to shift his body a bit on the couch. ]

Come closer?

[erbe]

I'm on your lap. How much closer can I get?

[Is he trying to lie down?]

[taketori]

[ He is, without trying to disturb her too much. ]

Well, closer... to put it a different way...

I wanted to try spooning? Something like that.

[erbe]

No.

[Her refusal seems like she's shutting him out at first, but it's quickly followed up by grabbing him and attempting to just put Miyuki on his back so she can rest her weight atop him instead.]

[taketori]

[ He was about to accept his rejection before he's pulled and laying back on the couch, finding Rin just laying on him suddenly.

...he's decided to be careful with his words, lest this girl just up and fucking murders him. Instead, gingerly wrapping his arms around her body. ]

Better?

[erbe]

Mmmmmaybe. For now.

[Her head rests on his chest as her legs tangle with his.]

[taketori]

[ As they get comfy, Miyuki carefully goes back to petting her head. Potentially helping her let her hair down, provided it wasn't already. ]

For now? You're not going to force me to move again, are you?

[erbe]

Maybe I will. For breakfast.

[Or maybe the couch will hurt and she'll drag him to her bed? Who knows.]

[taketori]

[ He doesn't seem that torn up about it, either way. ]

Mm... I'll make it, when we wake up...

[ It does sound like he's intending to just conk out like this. ]
