[tenses a little, but doesn't attempt to move. the bags under her eyes are certainly no less heavy, especially close enough that the glare from her glasses can't give much cover]
[ nuzzles against her forehead, where warmth abruptly spreads-- all the fear, anxiety, anger, it all washes away, smoothed over by a sense of calm and peace. the bad feelings are still there but they just... don't matter, right now. everything's pretty great. ]
[it's kind of a full-body sigh as every muscle relaxes at once. she sags forward, draping over Requiem like an awkwardly shaped blanket; gives another long sigh, breath washing warm over her skin]
[ pauses a moment, just to bask in the feeling of her girlfriend melting bonelessly against her, before casting it on herself as well-- and gives a deeply pleased hum, leaning her head back and closing her eyes. ]
[relishes the feeling of contact for a little while longer--the idea that of all the things to do and places to be, she gets to be here with Requiem, and maybe even Requiem feels the same way about her, too.]
[Eventually she slithers a hand to Req's hip, balances there enough so she can lean up and kiss at her nose]
[ scrunches her nose at the kiss, smiling back at her with a soft expression-- and well, she can find out in just a moment as req's hand threads through her hair, because; ]
[ quiet for a moment, thinking on those words-- normally she'd feel a
little self conscious if that. And she does, but it doesn't quite reach her
the same way... she mulls it over a moment before speaking again, stroking
her arm. ]
There anything I can do to make it more obvious...?

[ with good humor, nuzzling at her. ]
Re: day 215
That's the truth.

Re: day 215
Definitely one of the hottest girls I've ever met.
[ squeezes her, before settling back down again, rubbing her hand up along her spine. ]
Re: day 215
Anyways...yeah. It's just...relaxing, I guess. Comfortable.
Re: day 215
[ smiles, just soothingly petting her. ]
... you still have trouble sleeping, baby?
Re: day 215
...Nothing worth wasting time over. Why?
Re: day 215
I always wanna waste time on you.
[ lifts her hand to her hair, gently stroking her fingers through. ]
I got that feel-good power now. The Pep one. If you wanna try it.
Re: day 215
[hesitates, obviously considering the options]
...Have you tried it?
Re: day 215
Re: day 215
I mean...it's not like it's a bad thing or nothing.

Mm...this feels like it should be illegal...
Re: day 215
It's pretty good.

... love you.
Re: day 215
[her tone is pleasant, somewhere between baffled and flattered]
Kinda thought you'd've come to your senses by now, to be honest.
Re: day 215
[ settles back again, closing her eyes. ]
Keep saying it cuz it's true, obvs.
Re: day 215
[settles in as well, curling in beside her]

Re: day 215
--I mean, if it's doing stuff, you already do plenty for me. I'm coddled enough as it is.
Re: day 215
Re: day 215
That's so vague. I don't even know what that's supposed to feel like.
Re: day 215
[ hums, unsure herself. ]
... it's not like there's a straight answer for that kind of thing... I don't know. Do you believe me, when I say it?
[ a pause. Then, softly: ]
I can stop talking about it. If you want.
