[All that spare time he has, and had he given a single thought to how he could spend so much of it with his brother? He... hadn't, really, and it's strange how he feels a prickle of shame at that.
Ugh. It had been easier to feel nothing at all.
He moves his hand from Hypnos' head to the back of his shoulder and lets it rest there. Thanatos knows very well that he has never been the kindest person in Hypnos' life and he has always had his reasons for that, but while they're here... While they're here maybe things can be a little different. They can be different. How? He isn't sure yet, but he's sure that while they're here he's going to be keeping a close eye on his twin.]
Do you think you can get to sleep now? [Thanatos asks, tilting his head just enough to barely be able to see Hypnos' face.]
[ He teases a little. Just a bit. Sometimes it's weird to still call him that. To still call Thanatos big brother simply because he's just a small bit older. He's settled in against him easily. Comfortably. More comfortable than he ever thought he'd be cuddled - yeah, cuddled - up next to him. And he knows he won't tease Thanatos about the fact that this interaction is happen because he's too delighted by it to do that. ]
You too.
[ He'll fall asleep fast, though. He always does when he's comfortable. ]
[He believes that Hypnos is wise enough to not tease him about this, because he assumes that his brother would like this to happen again.
Thanatos closes his eyes and adjusts his position slightly to account for the weight of someone against his side, and though he doesn't fall asleep quite as quickly as Hypnos does he does, eventually, doze off.]
