It is 2am, and Marlowe is asleep. Not by much, and it's a restless, edgy sleep, but he is asleep. Not quite dreaming, at least nothing he'd really remember.

He's asleep, and it's too easy to remember how hard it is to sleep when you can't hear someone else's breathing.

"I'm an adult. I'm perfectly capable of shoving you off if I ever seriously think it's a bad idea."

So he's not to worry about that.

"I think I just need for this not to go badly."

"I'll try."

"I know."

He came back, didn't he?

And Marlowe really doesn't know quite what to say. He was asleep about ten minutes ago.

"You'll start writing again," Darren assures him. He's going to be asleep very soon too.

"Mm-hmm," goes Marlowe.

Are you going to argue, Marlowe, with the man who's affectionately got his tongue tracing patterns on your shoulder, nearly at the throat?

[no-sin-but.livejournal.com]

Ah...

No, not really.

Hah. Darren wins.

Or maybe they both do, if you look at it slant-wise.
