[codere]

If I make her do it for a week, will you bring her Noble Phantasm back for us?

[ She doesn't want to do any work. ]

[swordboning]

I can't. But I promise once you have the cooperation of a certain someone, you'll be able to get it easily.

[codere]

Great, I'd have to include someone else.

[ Dropping her face into his shoulder. ] I don't care to talk about it anymore. You're okay with everything, right?

[swordboning]

[A sigh.]

Shirou Emiya has it. He probably doesn't know it but he does. We can leave it at that.

[codere]

[ Opening her mouth.
Closing her mouth. ]

[swordboning]

Didn't you say we were done with this conversation?

[codere]

Do you want to go to sleep? [ Resting against him. ]

You sure you can't fit under the bed? It was kind of comfy under there.

[swordboning]

I'm far too big for that. If you want me with you, you're going to need to be on top.

[Phrasing.]

[codere]

When we move, I can get a larger bed. [ Because that's what he is going on about, right? ]

So you can have a bit more space.

[swordboning]

......why don't you let me build a canopy for your bed so you can sleep on it properly but feel closed in?

[codere]

A canopy?

Kind of like the ones all the princesses have in movies?

[swordboning]

That's about the extent of it. Would you like one?

[codere]

Can it be a black canopy? [ The most spoiled princess. ]

[swordboning]

[It's what happens when her boyfriend is an enabler who will do everything.]

Yes, it can.

[He likes black anyway.]

[codere]

[ This will be the reason she starts wearing yoga pants with PRINCESS in glitter across her ass swear to god. ]

So I'll have a black canopy and be able to sleep during the day.

[swordboning]

Only if you promise to try to get some sleep at night. It wouldn't bother me but you can't keep Saber awake at all hours.

[She has to work too.]

[codere]

Are you afraid I'd mess up her sleeping schedule as well? That's cute of you to worry.

I promise I'll still get sleep at night. If I didn't, then when would we get time together like this?

[swordboning]

If that's what you want to use as an incentive, that's good enough for me.

Were you going to get to sleep now?

[codere]

I think I can now that my mind's been put at ease.

[ She'll still worry a bit, but so long as he's not upset with her? Rin can rest a bit. ]

Stay with me?

[swordboning]

I'll be right by your side.

[Let him tuck her in, okay??]

[codere]

[ He has to. It isn't as if she can rearrange her blankets on her own and lay down at the same time. Moving from his arm to the bed, she curls up as she usually does and waits for him to get down to business. ]

[swordboning]

[No seriously, tucking her in so she can get comfortable.

But he's not laying around all dressed up for the day. Gotta change yo.]

[codere]

[ But does she get to watch? Because this is what's important to her. ]

[swordboning]

[He'll allow minor allowances in private. Even if Rin is intentionally keeping her eye on him.]

[codere]

[ Dat EX+ Rank Ass. ]

Hey Archer? [ Pulling the sheet up closer to her mouth, she asks in a muffled voice: ]

Can you brush my hair?
