Pane Rattling

by: bakayaro onna

A Gravitation exercise in scripting

Just some silliness inspired by tales of ratling's grandfather. Not to be taken seriously...

More of a scripting exercise than anything else. If you know the charas you can picture what they are doing and how they are reacting.

'Grumpy' is based more on the manga chara, hence the reason why he is being adamant about where his bed partner is sleeping.

"Where are you going?"

"To the couch."

"Get back here."

"Urm…, no."

An eyebrow raised. "I said, get back here."

"And I said, no. You may start off on your stomach but eventually you roll over and when you do you snore, loudly."

"Do not."

"Do too."

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"Do NOT! Get back in bed... here."

A sigh was heard. "Look, I HAVE to get to an early meeting tomorrow. If I am late Kai will kill me, and Touma, well, you may not find my body after he is done with me. So I REALLY need my sleep, and tonight I just can't with you rattling the window panes."

"I do NOT snore!"

A heavier sigh was heard. "Fine, fine, you don't snore. You just make noises so loud the crystal bowl that was above you on the headboard shelf vibrated so much it just jumped off and landed next to your pillow. It almost beaned me on the head!"

"How do I know you did not just put it there to prove a point?"

"Get real. I am exhausted. Do you really thing my brain is firing all cylinders right now? I need to be unconscious!"

"No, I want you here."

A yet heavier sigh was expelled. "Then fix it, now, so I can sleep." The last word was stretched out as a whine.

"Okay, let me think. If you fall asleep first do I wake you up when I move around?"

"Usually not. Once I'm out you can pretty much shoot cannons next to my head and I won't hear it. Why?"

"How about this? You come here and get into bed. I will stay awake until you doze off. Deal?"

"Okay, but if you fall asleep before me I am so out of here…"

"Fine. Now come HERE."

"Hey, are you horny, again? I need sleep, not sex!"

"Promise, no sex, at least not right now. Just come to bed."

"Okay….." Fabric rustles as bedclothes shift. "Happy now?"

"Mmmm, snuggle happy…"

"Now remember, no falling asleep until I do, agreed?"

"Agreed." A contented sigh. "Warm…."

"Mmm, comfy…. G'night."

A voice almost purring. "Night."
