On the fringes as we are, one must take the work as it comes, I'm afraid.

I know. I don’t hold it against you or anything. Just… [ there’s a pause there as he yawns ]. Exhaustion is catching up to him. Gonna need an adjustment period.

[redoubling]

You need your rest. I shouldn't keep you up much longer.

[ He lifts a hand, visibly hesitating before seemingly biting the bullet; he rests his hand lightly on Charlie's shoulder. ]

If you need me, I'm just a shout away, alright?

[ The contact is… a little surprising, but oddly not unwelcome. It’s comforting, in a way, and again Charlie finds himself with the urge to ask Myriad to stay. He swallows it down. The Changer has other things to do, he doesn’t need to babysit Charlie all night long, so in the end, Charlie just nods. ]

Alright. Thank you.

[ He stands, maintaining the contact a second longer. He squeezes his shoulder -- reassurance, probably -- and turns to the entryway. ]

Sleep well, Charlie.
