how do you make dreams stop?

[The message appears fairly early in the morning, maybe 4-5 AM.]

[That's actually good advice, and Tsuna is going to take that to heart. Just trying to focus on the now, and try not to worry about Home. Everyone's safe there, and he can't really do anything else about it.

But god forbid Byakuran show up here]

I'll try my best with it. Hopefully it works.

But that means you need to relax to. Otherwise, I'm gonna worry.

[God forbid any of their enemies (even those turned ally), show up in Avalon.]

Oh, I can do both! A rest isn’t as satisfying unless it’s after some hard work, after all.

[He wants to feel as though he’s earned every break he takes.]

[theskyaccepts]

[Tsuna's heart couldn't handle that level of chaos.]

Just don't work too hard.

[You're allowed to be lazy!]

Do you mind staying for a bit longer?

[bakudan_bambino]

You know that’s impossible for me, right?

[Gokudera doesn’t really give himself much opportunity to be lazy or rest. It is a ceaseless grind.]

No. I don’t have anything else planned.

[The downside of him trying to keep so productive is that he often finishes his tasks ahead of schedule. So… time to fixate on this next thing in helping distract his boss so that he won’t be focused on those bad dreams.]

Are you going to try and go back to sleep, or was there something you intended on doing?

[They could… make something together? Honestly, Gokudera is comfortable around Tsuna, and would happily just… read to him. He’s sure if the subject is boring enough, they could both take a very rewarding nap together.]

[theskyaccepts]

Yeah, I know.

[Said with a bit of a laugh. He can try though.]

No, I don't think so. I don't really want to. I was thinking of just watching tv or something. Not focusing on anything.

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera gives him a gentle, fond smile at that acknowledgement and laugh. He doesn’t mind talking with Tsuna… ever. It’s getting more comfortable, probably because he’s trying to treat his boss more like his friend.]

I can watch something with you and we can hang out!

[He’ll probably fall asleep though.]

[theskyaccepts]

I'd like that. If there's something you want to watch, go ahead. Otherwise, I might just surf until I find something.

[Maybe something with giant robots. That's about his speed right now.]

[bakudan_bambino]

That’s fine by me! I don’t watch much of anything, so it’s all interesting.

[But he will inevitably fall asleep and lean on Tsuna, even if he isn’t planning to do so. Gokudera settles down comfortably and looks at his friend with a gentle smile. No expectations for him aside from his company.]

[theskyaccepts]

[This is really all Tsuna needs, to be honest. So he'll just flip through channels until he finds an interesting looking movie or tv show. But with Gokudera there beside him, it's easy to just let go of the dream for a bit.]

Idk if you wanna wrap but here have a sleepy Gokudera

[bakudan_bambino]

[Gokudera is asleep against him, completely crashed. Even if it’s midday, he may have been pushing himself a bit hard. Not that he ever mentions it or keeps close for anyone to pick up on his habits. Tsuna likely knows about them, but if Gokudera can stretch himself towards his breaking point to achieve faster growth, he will. Maybe not as recklessly as he used to, but he’s tired.

Comfy there with his boss, assured by his safety and just leaned right on Tsuna, almost snoring.]

<3 we can wrap here

[theskyaccepts]

[Tsuna flips the channels a bit, eventually settling on what looks like a nature documentary. But mind settled a bit and with Gokudera there, he eventually drifts off as well.]
