sleep doesn't help if it's your soul that's tired
Again.
It's happened again.
Finn's meds wear off towards the morning anyway, leaving him in a light doze; the perfect recipe for disaster when it comes to realising that he isn't alone in bed any longer. But it's not just a naked version of the man who wears his face this time. Nah, this time Remi's brought a tiger along for tea.
Well, a leopardess. Same big cat difference.
Not naked, the Spyglass is in a perfect position to rocket back and fall out of bed the second a furry head comes pressing towards his own, choking out a curse that's too sleepy to be anything but random noise.
He recovers quickly, though - remarkably quickly, for Finn. All that work he's been doing on himself is paying off in some way, at least. "Out." His voice is firm this time, and it carries, and it leaves no room for questioning.
