[ He gives her a Look, though there's no heat in it. ] Honestly, I'd prefer it if you could, like, stay out of trouble. Maybe take it easy for a bit. I know that sounds weird, but, hey, sometimes? When people get hurt? They rest.
[ After a sort of heavy pause, he adds cautiously, ] So this is why you've been avoiding me, huh? And here I thought it was just 'cause you were too overwhelmed by my roguish good looks and sparklin' wit.
One thing you're gonna' learn pretty quickly about me is I don't know when to stay down.
[ It's light, a little teasing but... there's a hint of truth to it too. Resiliency is hardwired into her brain; it is fight or die. Rest isn't actually a bad idea right now but there's still that fear of sleep nestled in the back of her waking mind preventing her from doing any such thing. ]
- Yeah. I mean, the roguish good looks and sparkling wit were a small part of it. But it was mostly the other stuff.
Hey, understandable. I mean, sometimes when you're confronted by such a perfect specimen like myself, it's hard to know how to cope.
[ Yeah, more joking. He knows they're not out of the woods yet, not by any means, but it feels like at least they might be able to get there. ]
I know you're trying to do the hermit thing, but if you really need to, you can crash here. There's, like, six other people staying here, aside from yours truly, but I don't imagine they'll really care.
If I'm gonna' crash here that comes with the condition that you're forfeiting your bed. [ Which, actually, there's a couple reasons for. Mostly that she doesn't feel comfortable taking up an empty bed and running the risk that someone thinks they have a new roommate.
The other ( totally not important ) reason is that, well. His bed has his scent and that's kind of a weirdly comforting thing right now. It makes sense in her mind but that may also be the wolf part of her speaking, which can be tricky translating to human understanding. ]
But it'll probably only be for... a couple hours, at most.

Make it five hours, and you won't hear any complaints from me.
no subject
Five hours, sure. But no longer than that.

Deal, then. Not many in this place who get the opportunity to say they've had a girl as hot as you in their bunks, anyway.
