I apologize this is a little later than it should be, but I will not be tending to The Blue Light today. If there is any trouble contact me as you can.

I suppose I do. I have not had any privacy to myself since the day I arrived in this world.

[It's only mock annoyance of course. He appreciates having never spent a single day in this world without another Narnian.]

It's not a place to sleep. [ on purpose ] I'll be fine.

[ Part of her feels if the witch was here, she would've been found already anyway, in truth. ]

But you...I understand that people are usually asleep at this hour.

[ But clearly....Caspian is not.

'Why' is not necessary, but it is a point made all the same.

What are you doing up?

What will you do? ]

Says who? I have napped there on occasion.

You don't read?

[ She may be teasing.

...may. ]

Um.

I read.

Sometimes it is so comfortable I fall asleep.

[Yeah that's it.]

[ She looks away from the device, even though no one can see her through it of course. ]

It is.

...but I don't sleep for some time yet anyway.

Well, that is true. You will keep it in mind for when you do?

The half that isn't being rebuilt, certainly.

[ Pause. ]

You should get some rest. Your senses will be sharper for it.

[ You can search or keep an eye out better when you have slept than when you haven't, basically. ]

Yes. They might be...

[It could be that he has stayed up to the stroke of midnight every night, hoping it will all end, but in a few ticks time that will prove wrong again. He keeps that numb disappointment out of his tone.]

You are right, Yvaine.

I know.

[ Well, she did say will, not might be...as far as her own sureness on that particular conviction goes, but she will never understand how running oneself into the ground helps any situation. At the same time, she is no stranger to sleep simply refusing one, and in that case she thinks to offer company again, if only to share the silence.

But in the end she withholds. If it comes to that, the truth is she isn't hard to find, especially in the dark. ]

I imagine so.

[ Not sarcastic, not even dry, just plainly stated. ]

Go. You'll be watching the sun rise too at this rate.

All right.

[It sounds like maybe he's gone already, except then he adds.]

Thank you, Yvaine.

Good night, Caspian.

I hope your dreams are kind.

Perhaps they will give way to a kinder wakefulness as well.

And yours as well, when you do sleep.

[There's a soft laugh here and he actually nods at the device like the star is in front of him.]

Good day, Yvaine.

[See what he did there? Rather, hear what he did there?]

[ She turns the device off but as she does, Caspian may catch the softest trace of a laugh---not much, in fact, barely, but it's there. ]
