"I was very motivated to make a good impression," Niki points out with a sly smile. "But if you have any pointers, I am all ears. I do prefer my feedback while I am in the middle of the task, though. I work better that way." And clearly his wits are very much back about him now, though Sunjata ties his tongue in knots all over again as he shifts to lay down and lands his head directly in Niki's lap. His cheeks flush pink at the unexpected intimacy of the moment, though he'd be thoroughly ridiculous to feel like this is a step too far after everything else they've just done.
Instead, shifting just enough to get comfortable and to give Sunjata a bit more room, he inclines his head and relaxes back into the couch. "As long as this works for you, here is fine," he says with a nod, reaching out to absently brush his fingers through the other man's hair. "I will wake you when the fire gets low?" That feels like time enough for a decent nap, he thinks.
