Ah...! Well, regardless, wouldn't it be better to sleep in your own bed? I never had much desire to sleep on the floor!

Ah... that's natural, isn't it? Tonight's been awfully eventful.

[y-yep, going to scoop Tokiomi up -- even with his small body, he has a Saber class's strength, and it doesn't take much to get Tokiomi to his bedroom]

[ :c Master...

He pushes the bedroom door open and lays his master down as gently as possible. Despite his tendency to get overexcited and a bit rough, he's being quite gentle now that he puts his mind to it]

There, that's much better.

[It was simple to sense how scared Tokiomi is -- still, it does feel strange to see it shown so openly. In a way, he's grateful that Tokiomi has the chance to stop being brave, because it's a very tiring thing.]

Ah, as you wish, Master! I'll be right here.

[He hops onto the foot of the bed and sits there, cross-legged and attentive]

[It occurs to him to decline - after all, he doesn't really need the sleep.]

[...but modern beds are terribly soft, and he hasn't had a good excuse to curl up on one since he was summoned. So, in the name of comforting his Master, he scoots up to the head of the bed and curls up there himself.

And he's terribly, terribly pleased about it]

Ah, then perhaps I will. Thank you!

...Master -- you've done well...

[He drapes his arms around his Master and lets him cry. Gilgamesh had counted on cruelty and hardship for the both of them, but he never once thought to question Tokiomi's ability or resilience. His Master had proved worthy from the beginning, and that sense of acknowledgement has become an undeniable affection, the sort that he imagines he'd only be capable of in this younger body of his.

In his down time, he's meditated on the sort of person he knows he became -- he can't call the result good or bad, but it's something he doesn't wish to see his Master duplicate. The modern world does not strike him as well-equipped to handle many great yet cruel men (indeed, it barely weathered his older self), and so he'd prefer Tokiomi to remain as he is now, kind and noble. The loneliness, in this case, is fixable, and Gilgamesh has set his mind to aiding in that.]
