amused by the people giving ilya undeserved credit in hit or miss for effectively communicating to shane that he was welcome to share the same bed as him when the subject of svetlana came up. like yeah, that's what ilya THOUGHT he was conveying.
but the way this came out was shane picking up svetlana's bonnet, asking what it is, and getting.
"oh, is svetlana's. for her hair when she sleeps."
"oh, she sleeps in here?"
"oh yes, always. i don't think she has ever even seen the guest room here."
and what ilya THINKS he's saying here is, "hey, my other friend i fuck sleeps here so often and it's so normal. SO normal. she doesn't even expect to go in the guest room because it's SO normal for my friend to sleep in the same bed as me after sex. it's SO normal, shane. please come sleep in my bed with me, shane. it's SO normal."
and instead what shane has gotten out of this is that ilya (who always gave him space at first because shane was still settling into sex and was waiting for *shane* to decide if/when he wanted ilya to stay) is fine with svetlana sharing his bed but apparently isn't interested in doing that with shane because he's never said anything before whenever shane gets up to go to the guest room.
