When Skye looked at her phone, Lincoln took his chance and quickly let a small stream of electricity from his fingertips, smiling slightly when the light turned green. Hopefully she didn’t see. Hopefully. “I won’t get bored,” he said, handing her the handheld, careful to make sure their hands won’t brush. “A nap sounds nice, but I don’t want to overstay my welcome, or get you in trouble when any of your coworkers get back.”

Skye undoubtedly saw the small smile that ghosted on his face when she turned to accept the handheld from him. It was nice. “I’ve overstayed my welcome. Six hours and counting. Besides, they don’t really come down here anymore, which I take full advantage of when I need to get away.” The time it took the 3DS to boot up was the time it took her to retrieve a blanket from underneath the bed, lazily throwing it over Lincoln’s legs to express her complete support for being indefinitely unconscious. “So should you. Go on, recharge. I’ll alert you in case of any developments, the developments being me beating your high score or breaking this thing.”
