It's been a Long Night [Body Swap LOL, for Ixis]

[smartass_captain]

It's well past two am by the time Jim and Verity make it back to the tower. They're both tired and Jim's already had a mug of that dream-free tea Viatorus was kind enough to provide for him during his meet up with Schon earlier.

He'll awkwardly give Verity a hug before waving her off to bed and heading back to the couch to try and get some semblance of sleep, if only to make it tomorrow all the quicker.

Jim is not expecting to see his body perched on the end of the couch, looming at him in the darkness.

"Okay, what the fuck now??"

"It was, but Viatorus gave me some dream-free tea and I'm not about to turn down a chance to get rest without anyone's fucked up mind or thoughts getting in the way."

Jim wonders briefly if that seat on the arm of the couch had been comfortable, but decides any bruises or pulled muscles Ixis gets from sleeping on stones is just one more problem for future Jim once he gets his body back. Not worth fighting over now.

Naugus still hasn't figured out the problem could be him sleeping on a stone slab, rather than it being yet another failing of Jim's tender body. Not everyone has hide like you, Mr. Wizard.

"That sounds ideal. Like I said, I never remember mine, and my sleep never suffers for it. Highly recommended."

He straightens up, cracking his back loudly with a pleased grimace before turning and tromping up the stairs again without so much as a good night. Bye, apparently.
