[aria] falls asleep on [genji]
nonverbal actions ( not accepting ) — @mioamato
Things have been blessedly quiet for the past fifteen minutes or so, a welcome relief from the incessant nattering that has filled the room since Aria invited themself onto the couch unnecessarily close to him, given that the rest of it is completely empty. Genji hasn’t questioned it, certain that if he does it’ll only kick off a second round of annoying chitchat in his ear. Instead, he’s taken advantage of the silence and put his regained focus on the datapad in his hands.
It’s about halfway through filling out his report on his most recent mission that a weight falls against his shoulder, instantly tearing his gaze from the screen so that he can growl at Aria to stop touching him. …Except, when he looks over, he finds that their eyes are closed. It’s their head that has flopped against his shoulder, and a portion of their upper body leans heavily against his arm and side. Well, that explains the silence – he’s always suspected that the only time Aria shuts up is while they’re asleep.
An aggravated sigh passes through organic and inorganic lips, the cyborg rolling his eyes as he turns his attention back to the data pad, and yet he doesn’t shove the pilot off. He wants to, but if he wakes them he’ll only be treated to more rambling about some topic he’s just finally managed to shove from his mind, paired with pouting and additional whining about how he refused to be their pillow. He’d rather not suffer through that. If remaining safe means allowing Aria to sleep against him, then so be it. For the sake of his report, he’ll allow it – this time.
