[ Good question. But it's probably a good thing, in this situation, that Claude's been sleeping even less than normal this week. The room's been all but empty every time Sylvain's gone to use it. Which, if he's honest, hasn't been a lot himself. Anytime he's closed his eyes, he's been haunted by nightmares and memories and the endless whispers preying at the edge of his consciousness, so he's given up even trying until he's too exhausted to resist anymore.
Jesper's not the only one in dire need of distraction.
But he knows that look on Jesper's face all too well, but seeing it there, aimed at him, has him freezing for a moment. Almost balking when the whispers latch onto the guilt, the self-loathing, but he pushes it away. He can worry about his own issues later, he needs to focus on getting Jesper away from here first. And if that means distracting him with another sort of distraction...
Well. At least he's real damn talented at that.
Which is why he leans in against the slim body he's got pinned to the wall, a knee angled between Jesper's legs as one corner of his lips quirk upwards in challenge. ]
Oh, I can think of a couple places. [ No one's ever accused him of passing up a chance at terrible innuendo. ] But for the moment, anywhere that's not here.
[ He steps back, fingers curling in the front of Jesper's jacket as he drags him along with him, keeping him faced away from the gambling hall as he backs away. ] We can go to my place for the time being.
