“W-Well, you deserve to sleep comfortably too, Emily!” he insisted right back, as he sat a little more upright: Quite honestly, he’d be more than happy to give her his bed...but he also knew (even before she said so aloud) that she wouldn’t want to deprive him off the bed (especially after he’d just begun getting used to sleep in it...), leaving them once again at a bit of a stalemate...
(For a brief moment, the idea of the two of them sharing the bed crossed his mind, but he very quickly dismissed it, as his face suddenly turned white-hot behind the mask; he supposed that was one good thing about having it, so that Emily didn’t see him blush so hard and ask what the matter was...)
As much fun as it was to playfully to volley teases and arguments back and forth, Randall was now well aware of the tiredness beginning to sink in for him as he sat in his seat, eyelids beginning to grow heavy: Between the rainy, moody skies outside, the rhythm of the rain on the roof, and his own overall tiredness, his will to stay awake was beginning to ebb, as he stifled a little yawn (trying not to appear as tired as he was), saying (as one last weak protest), “I really don’t mind if you take the bed, Emily, r-really, I-I can get perfectly comfortable on the lounger...”
#((exactly! it's sorta like a distorted mirror image of canon; with the truth not coming to light in the wake of death))#((and ultimately ending with randall and emily running away together-only here in this au they at least get to be alive in doing so))#((unlike in canon when they had to marry/move away together post-mortem!))#((and as for future rps we certainly have a lot of options! 'death of a bachelor' would be GREAT; even with all the angst))#((and we defidently have the revamped 'even a man who is pure of heart'; that's one i would love to do!))#((i'd also be down for trying out that 'mummy' au we discussed a LONG time ago; with randall being a peat bog mummy))#((who reanimates and seeks to reconnect with emily in the modern world!))#((so all of those are all options i'd be more than down for; as you said we've got a lot of rp left to go in this one))#((so we don't have to decide right away but still; it's interesting to think ahead a little!))#((hmmm...did we have any others with june and wilhelm lined up in there somewhere? i don't think we did))#((but i wouldn't say no to seeing them again in an rp somewhere in there! :D))#outofhatboxes#beatingheart-bride#V:Phantasm of the Mansion
