Mm. Worry more about yourself; if you're on my side I'll end up putting my cold feet on you, likely.

[Even as she says it, she's carefully rearranging the pillows, pushing G'raha up enough to wrangle one beneath his head, untucking the folds of covers where they've gotten trapped and smoothing them out for a better fit.

But then, gradually, she slows and looks at Ezar, a little thoughtfully.]

...No. I'll take the middle and leave you the side, I think. You'll have a smoother...escape, that way, if something happens and you think you need a moment.

[An out, free for the taking, if he needs it. One that he can use anytime. Free to stay, safe to distance — wherever his changing level of comfort might fall at any moment.]

[ He nudges his shoulder lightly against hers. ] I've had a lot worse than cold feet.

[ And her idea for arranging things is wise, ultimately. He's going to be more comfortable near her, on the side that also smells more like her, and... he's already admitted he's up because of his night terrors. If he awakens as a sweating, gasping wreck again, better for him to be on a side where he can scramble free and find air without accidentally lashing out at either of them.

He sits on the edge of the bed and unties his braid, the movement of his fingers habitual as he unravels the strands, then collects the length of his hair back in to twist it into a loose knot that he ties on top of his head. ]

If I snore in your ear or something, don't feel bad about kicking me.

But never my cold feet.

[As though she is in a class all her own, which is probably not the case, but still. She yawns, brushing a few stray wisps of G'raha's hair back into place from where it'd fallen loose while arranging him, then rolls her shoulders in one final stretch before crawling back up onto the mattress herself to join them.

She's taller than G'raha by an ilm, yes, but in terms of build she's still debatably the slightest of the three of them, and like any proper cat has an inherent knack for making herself as expansive or as small as she pleases, depending on her whim of the moment. With three in the bed, it's simply not feasible for them to end up not touching each other in at least some capacity, but there's at least enough leeway remaining for Ezar to decide between a range of options from minimal contact to full-out canoodling.

But before she fully settles, she mumbles something too low to distinguish, and rearranges her hand just the slightest fraction — an almost imperceptible shift of a thing whose only purpose seems to be to ensure that there's some part of G'raha beneath her fingertips, for all that the positioning has them in contact in other ways.]

Mmmm. Sweet dreams, Rolanberry.

[basura_boi]

You too, love.

[ He stays sitting on the edge of the bed until Summer's fully settled, then a bit longer, feeling more and more like an intruder with how comfortable they look. They already strike him as a complete picture, of themselves.

Stop overthinking it. His choices are to lay down or steal away to the couch; the latter feels too cowardly after having been invited, and after agreeing.

He finally settles on the very edge of the mattress, taking up as little space as possible, one hand lightly against Summer's back. To calm himself and try to empty his head, he listens to the both of them breathing and tries to find a harmony with it. As exhausted as he already is, sleep comes for him quickly after that.

And no longer overthinking things by grace of sleep, he soon migrates over to being curled around Summer, his nose in her hair, one arm draped over her waist so his hand, too, rests on G'raha. ]
