Nap, Nancy. A nap is like... 45 minutes. Two hours tops. I'm not wasting thirteen hours with you asleep. No way.
( uh, Steve, if you pass out what is going to stop you from spending it asleep? if sheer tenacity was enough to stay awake, he wouldn't be flagging so hard right now. )
Hmmm. So, I see what you're saying, I hear you. Totally. But it kind of feels like you're underestimating my skills as a big spoon right now? And I don't love that. Because I'm preeetty sure this koala is about to give you the best 13 hour nap of your life.
[ she might be acting a little silly because she likes the thought of him smiling at his phone at work. but also, she's so competitive it's actually embarrassing sometimes. ]
( ugh. just... look at this shit. honestly he would show it to Robin, if she weren't the other occupant of Grumptown, population 2. right now Robin would just huff and say, Thanks Harrington, I didn't want my back molar anyway. Anything else you want to rot my teeth with, dingus? honestly she'd probably say that if she weren't grumpy, it's just you'd hear the playfulness a little better. so he won't inflict it on her right now, even though it feels unfair that he's the only one to witness this. it's just that Nancy Wheeler might be the cutest thing on the entire planet. and she's putting herself up against literal koalas, notedly cute creatures. imagine that kind of cuteness, knowing not even little bears that cling to trees with big tufts for ears can compete with you. )
Tell the koala to have mercy, all right? If I sleep thirteen hours we're going to be up at 4am and I don't know about you but I'm up then way more than I want as it is.
I suppose we'll just have to find a way to keep busy ourselves for 4-5 hours befo Okay, no, I can't even pretend that I have enough energy to handle 4-5 hours of anything.
You're right. I don't want to wake up at 4am, either. Or completely butcher my sleep schedule, for that matter. But... I do really like the thought of spending the rest of the day just relaxing with you. Like a truly low-key, lazy, relaxing night in. Maybe. Even though we're both very bad at lazy relaxing.
[ it's close enough that she gets what he meant, and that's all that matters!! also... she really is down bad for him bc nancy's the type to get a little annoyed when someone jumbles up sayings like that, but not when it's steve harrington. if he's ever said something that's really off, she'd gently correct him, but broken clocks... can still tell time, sure. yes. she gets it. ]
Can you, though???? Alright, sure. I'll follow your lead. But I make no promises about how on or overboard things might get, because I'm one of those unpredictable wily koalas.

( that was a pretty good approximation of a broken clock can be right twice a day considering he's functioning on minimal brain power. )
I can relax just fine. You just gotta follow my lead.
Which includes a short nap. Got it? Don't go overboard, koala.
🎀 ?
