Klaus probably seems like the type of person that would be a dead-to-the-world kind of sleeper, but the truth is, the tiniest things could wake him up. Especially nights like this, when sleep is such a precarious thing to get close enough to hold anyway. So, when Charlie shifts and slips away, Klaus is already awake. The disappearance of both the weight and warmth he'd been clinging to was a bit jarring, and he frowns, wondering where she was going. He can't see between the darkness of the room and his own sleep-blurred eyes. It isn't long, though, and she's back and draping a quilt over him. As Charlie settles back on the bed, Klaus turns onto his other side, staring at his sister. "Hey." he says quietly, smiling a little. "Thanks."

She loves her brother ok

“I don’t know why you’re thanking me. It’s a terrible quilt.”


Charlie, don’t be a shitheel. This humble thing is not pretty. “But I made it for you. Your initials are in a few squares in your favorite colors.” The look on her face is tired and hopeful. She wants to ask if he likes it, even if it looks like nothing but flaws to her.

he loves her too sobs

"So?" He shrugs and curls a little closer, to both Charlie and into the blanket. "You made it. And--" he peeks out from the edge of the quilt. "are apparently giving it to me, if my initials are sewn into it. So." He shrugs a little. "Thanks."

i think if either of them lost the other they'd lose all their shit

"I figured it'd help." With the ghosts. With the monsters in his head from the ghosts. With all of it. Give it some time. She'll figure out how to make weighted blankets and make him one in all his favorite colors and patterns and fabrics. It'll be a hot mess of a blanket when it comes to appearance, but Charlie wants to help.

"You're welcome." She shuffles under her own blanket, something in an off-white and robins egg blue stripe pattern from K-Mart, rolling onto her back and taking up very little space before turning to look at Klaus again.

"Mom says my stitches are improving." Pleasing Mom is far more important to Charlie than pleasing dad. "She says we're going to start working on clothes, next."

1000%

"It will." Not even a maybe or a might, to Klaus it's a definite with no doubt to be had.

"Really?" His eyes light up at the idea of it. "Do I get to be a model?" This. This right here? This is exactly the kind of thing he needs after days like this. Something bright and hopeful and distracting to keep the wild swirl of thoughts he doesn't want to face at bay.
