#tbh this fic is just me dealing with my thomastair feelings

[vwritesaus]

      ‘Hello? Earth to Costume Guy?’       Alastair pulls himself back to the present, and finds Kit staring at him with a raised eyebrow and his arms crossed over his chest. It dawns on him then that the poor boy has probably been trying to get his attention for a little while.       ‘Sorry,’ Alastair mumbles, feeling sheepish. ‘I, uh… sorry, I was…’       Saying nothing, Kit merely uncrosses his arms and makes a gesture with his hands that clearly states want to tell me what that was about?       ‘I hear them,’ Alastair says, ‘but I can’t see them. Or gain any idea of where they are and how to get back to them.’       ‘Who? What are they saying?’       ‘My sister. My friends. To—’ Alastair cuts himself off abruptly and clears his throat. ‘They’re discussing our next steps and also how to go about waking me up.’       Kit’s eyes narrow, scrutinising, and his voice mirrors it as he asks, ‘You think you’re dreaming, aren’t you?’       Alastair shrugs helplessly. ‘Wouldn’t you? If you were me?’
