Midnight Manor Private Residence, Sunday Night

Well, it sure has hell had been a day. There was a lot of bread currently populating both the private residence's and the boarding house's kitchen, let's just put it that way. And we won't even talk about the dough in the freezer.

Eventually, though, Watts had slipped into bed exhausted, falling asleep rather immediately.

The smell of vomit and sweat hit him like a wave as soon as he stepped inside.

It was overwhelming, he was practically choking on it. He wanted to run, be anywhere but here- but at the same time, he knew he needed to be here, this might be the last-

Also naturally, Steven reached over Llewellyn's lap to tuck the blanket in around him to help keep Llewellyn nice and close.

Steven pondered. "Something with an adventure, perhaps? No danger but excitement?"
