Puck, who has woken rather early having frankly not slept all that much, prepares to greet the inevitable day.
Is this enough water?
He'd thought it was.
He does hope Havelock isn't cross.
... But if he is, it will likely be at least a little bit hilarious.
"And I wish to hear not a word from you," he notes to the portrait.
The painting sits balefully on the wall, keeping a sulky silence.

Puck ... loves you ...?
no subject
...And he's okay!
Yes, it took that time to check.
Once reassured, Havelock rakes a hand through his hair with determination.
"What time is it, anyway?" he asks.
no subject
"But I should guess it is near ten."
no subject
Definitely shouldn't go back to sleep.
"All right. Time to get up."
It is unclear who he is convincing.
no subject
Puck nuzzles cheerfully into his throat.

"I would just get up and carry you with me," Havelock says thoughtfully. "But... I honestly think I would collapse."
no subject
"Perhaps you ought to collapse, so long as you were awake about it."

D:
Swift and decisive, he slides his legs off the mattress, and gets to his feet.
...The closes his eyes for a pained moment or two.

And may also be caressing a little bit. Just his hip.
It's totally reasonable.
no subject
"All right," he says. "I'm going to go and stand under the hot water until I either wake up or drown."
Odds are about even.
"Coming?"
no subject
"Absolutely."
Or not.
no subject
Maybe he'll survive the experience, in that case!
...Either way, he'll probably feel marginally better in short order.
