( he notices the way kaiser reacts at the touch to his neck and he slowly retracts his hand from his neck, placing it back on his shoulder, not thinking too much about it, but he's definitely making a mental note of that. it's a habit of his, constantly trying to figure other people out by paying attention to the little things. )

Ah... Understood. ( isagi doesn't think it's the same for him. he definitely doesn't fall asleep that easily. probably because he's constantly brainstorming something or other. usually he heads to the monitoring room, but these days he likes lying down next to kaiser, just listening to his even breathing through the night. )

You also fell asleep when I was reading to you that time. But that's probably because you had a good meal too, right? ( he'd cooked for him. creamy chicken and mushroom soup which they ate with some bread. )
