Magic or not he'd probably have passed out. The warmth of her lap under his head was relaxing.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
“ Very well then, Leo｡ Now may you have peaceful dreams｡ ”
Her voice lowers that into a whisper as her hand moves from his head and over his eyes｡ Time for her to do some magic to make sure he sleeps all nice 〜
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
" Because full name and title introductions are ridiculous. Call me Leo. "
By now his eyes had fallen shut for the past several moments. Fatigue catching up to him.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
A couple blinks and then a smile that held back her chuckle｡ What a cute little name ｡ ｡
“ And you are laughing because — .ᐣ ”
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
" If that's how you want to do it. Leonidas Vernon Dawnlight the third. "
He lets out a dry chuckle. Laughing at his own name it seems.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
“ My name .ᐣ It is only right one gives theirs before asking for another’s｡ ”
Very old fashioned it seems｡
“ But since one is resting I will overlook it ｡ ｡ I am the Sorceress Circe｡ ”
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
" Sometimes. "
His eyes shut, legs crossing as he sighs. Another new one...
" What's your name? "
Ꮮꭼꮎ
“ Mind games are fun 〜 ”
A bright smile and then a soft chuckle once more｡
“ Ah, yes I am but that is okay, right .ᐣ ”
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
" Depends. If it's for business, mind games. For fun, RPGs. "
Emerald hued eyes blink up at her. Scrutinizing her features.
" You're new. "
Ꮮꭼꮎ
“ And what kind of games does thou like to play .ᐣ ”
Her gaze remained softly on him｡ A little bit of conversation wouldn’t hurt before his slumber, right .ᐣ
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
" I like playing different games. "
Despite the natural grey colour his hair is exceptionally soft.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
A gentle chuckle comes from her as she lifts her hand and places it atop of his head｡
“ Of course, I am 〜 ”
Fingers lightly began to run through his strands｡
“ Are you not .ᐣ ”
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Sighs, sitting down a few feet away before laying down. Hands under his head as it sets in her lap.
" You having fun yet? "
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Pat, pats her lap again .ᐟ
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Fine. Just for the sake of getting this voodoo hoodoo over with he'll go along with it.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Her lap will make the best pillow though .ᐟ And plus she still needs to put the spell on him so he can sleep peacefully｡
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
He said he'd sleep. He did not agree to this.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Pat, pat her lap —
Time for him to rest peacefully ✨
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
...fine. If it gets her off his ass.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Nope .ᐟ
Now come rest.
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Most haven't heard of rhetoric
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Because most of them do not know defeat therefore most are very confident individuals and most have things done their way.
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Sigh...
How come servants are always so difficult?
Ꮮꭼꮎ
He is, absolutely, correct !
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
She's not going to listen even if he says no is she...?
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Then after those hours she will put him to sleep. No ifs ands or buts!
One needs sleep to keep up their beauty and health.
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
He's a professional with a reputation to keep up.
Supposedly 22:00 to 06:00 hours. Supposedly. Usually there's some sort of emergency call though
Ꮮꭼꮎ
My, my… Very by the book, isn’t he? It is no wonder he does not get any sleep.
Then what are hours he is not needed for labor?
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Servant, goddess, whatever. His position has rules, and guidelines.
Not even the servants can be in his office unless they're one of his.
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Ah, but she is a Goddess and a servant. How more qualified can she be? Is it not the duty of a servant to watch over man?
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
She's not qualified...
Ꮮꭼꮎ
Sh, shhh~
Let Circe take watch as he slumbers. She promises to wake him up if he is needed.
𝓒𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑒 ✶⋆.˚
Then he wouldn't be able to respond to an emergency.
Which honestly is half the reason the insomnia has gotten so bad. This damned base can't go a day without something happening.
