[ Her forehead presses to his once he has given his silent answer. She will insist that she is fine and that aether can be replenished, but his assumptions are not wrong. A faint smile teases the corners of her mouth. He is ever more thoughtful of those around him. What will the pair of them do with one another? Although, she supposes there is very little for them to do than make sure the other is cared for. She wishes she might be bold enough to call them a couple... but she knows quite opposite of that. ]
Setting your own conditions? [ An attempt at a small jest as she gently kisses his brow.
Regardless, she pulls away from him and returns to her side of the bed. Well, the side that she has taken to her own for the night. She would not dare to presume it is hers by right or by ownership. The robe she has been loaned slips off easily even as one hand makes sure the larger shirt on her remains in place as best as it can. While she certainly would not mind him seeing her... she has her doubts he would ever want their relationship to be so intimate.
Alkaid settles into the bed underneath the sheets and waits for him to join her. Once he has, she is his side practically in an instant. Her arm wraps around him as her head rests against his chest. A part of her instantly chastises herself for moving so. Perhaps he would not want her so close or wish a space between them in his bed. They are far from being formally together or even a couple.
She glances up at him as if to ask a form of late permission that it is alright for them to be as they are. ]
