Thanks, [ comes his answer, and while the delivery is certainly a bit dry, well — he means it, because he asked and expected the answer to be "yes", and the fact he can be here is... good. somehow.
and yeah, the fact that this isn't the first time charles has stayed with junpei as he sleeps doesn't escape his notice, though this is miles better from the storage room and the cold floor (and the blanket pile that charles kept adding to with every passing day in the faint hopes it'd make things at least a fraction better).
feel free to ditch me, junpei says, and charles thinks no, never, and then promptly decides that that's something he probably shouldn't say out loud. instead, he lifts his hand that still has junpei's fingers curled around the wrist and gives him a crooked smile. ]
Well, I think that'll depend on if you're still holding me hostage, then.
