[ Life is very weird. K-2SO is snuggling with his commanding officer slash friend, in a Rebel hideout, as they wait for a storm to pass.

K-2 doesn't acknowledge the thanks, merely wrapping his long metal arms around Cassian's shoulders. ]

[ Miracle upon miracles, Cassian does fall asleep eventually, breathing evening out.

He sleeps about forty minutes, this time, before another nightmare has him jolting awake.

Can't win for losing. ]

[ By the time Cassian awakes, K-2 has shifted so that only one arm is wrapped around Cassian, the other arm extended at an awkward angle to jack into the data port and monitor the storm's progress.

He doesn't notice at first that Cassian is awake. ]

[ouzel]

How are we doing? [ His voice is muffled and groggy, and he will probably drift to sleep again in a moment, but he wants to know.

Also he is forever thankful for the arm around him. ]

[ Kay tilts his head down towards Cassian and says in what he tries to make but probably fails at making a hushed, spring tone, ] The storm has shifted to the west. We should be able to leave by morning.

[ouzel]

That's good. [ Stifling a yawn. ] Do you need to move?

[ktwo]

I have no sense of physical discomfort. And I can reach the data port from this position.

[ So that's a no. ]

[ouzel]

You're a good friend. [ Cassian shifts so he's even further down in the blankets. ] Better than I deserve.

[ktwo]

I am.

[ No comment as to what Cassian does or doesn't deserve. K-2SO thinks Cassian deserves a lot of things, not least of which is a real night's sleep in an actual bed, but it might be some time until he can have that. ]
