[The only response Alhaitham lets out here is a quiet hum, mostly to show that he's listening even if the words are starting to make less sense to him now as comprehension gives way to a rising sense of drowsiness. His body relaxes even more, encouraged by the way Kaveh's fingers continue to run through his hair, gentle and warm.
Though Alhaitham can fall asleep easily if he wants to, its been a long time since he allowed himself to gradually drift off like this. It's different from the way they curl up in bed each night, different from the naps that he takes when the mood comes. Because its not so much as him desiring to fall asleep but him relaxing enough to be able to drift off without much thought, lulled into an easy sense of comfort that permeates through his entire being.]
only real homies break up and then get back together and sleep together under the pretense of rent
