I know I have a reputation, but I can manage to carry a few blankets.

[A small amused smile.]

I thought we could find a good place to sleep outdoors. The, uhm, the way we did when I didn't have so many spells.

[headmt]

[He gives him an expression of doubt, but it's mostly teasing.]

Yeah alright. Sounds nice. Been too cramped indoors for too long anyway.

[katzepaw]

[Going to find a slightly secluded spot under some trees to clear and spread out a blanket for them.]

I spent all my vouchers on healing some people so we could steal their beds and replace them with bread, so I regret that I cannot provide a tent.

[headmt]

You know I got blamed for the bed thing? Why would I put any beds on the roof of my own feckin' dorm. No shenanigans happened when you weren't around Mollymauk. You're the one that's the eye of the chaos storm, you know.

[He looks really charmed by that statement, even with the bread involvement, just flopping down on the blanket and putting his hands behind his head.]

Kind of nice anyway, open air.

[katzepaw]

[Lying down on the blanket next to him, seemingly pleased to be called the eye of the chaos storm. He whispers to him - ]

Afterwards, I texted all of them to tell them I was still on their side and to help them plan revenge on Winter Dorm.

[headmt]

[He laughs at that, rolling over to put his chin over Caleb's shoulder, letting his eyes close. Some of that same sort of easy affection as before.]

You're certainly having a good time with all of this, aren't you? For the kids is what you said before?

[katzepaw]

Mm. They will have fun plotting revenge.

[He feels a little uncomfortable being called out as sweet, but in a strange way, this is the one thing he's done here that he feels a little proud of - inciting more of these ridiculous pranks, getting both dorms involved. It always makes him feel a little happy, too, when they fight over who gets to keep him. It's. . . very sweet.

Wrapping his arms around him, cuddling right back, pulling some of the extra blankets over them.]

. . . But what about you? Taking it a little harder than you wanted to talk about on Monday, maybe?

[headmt]

[He's laughing at first, at the ridiculous pranks and thinking about dorm revenge, but he goes quiet once he's asked that question. Hesitant, suddenly.]

It's true. What Aikawa was saying. You've got to wake up from the dream sometime.

[katzepaw]

And what does this dream you have to wake up from entail?

[Just going to stay curled up with him while they talk this out. He can hide his face in his shoulder if he needs to, though.]
