[ The thing is, the stone floors are more comfortable to Trevor than anything else sometimes. More familiar than plush sofas and soft beds. More solid and reliable. Less like he's going to just sink into nothing at any moment. It helps that now that the summer is here in earnest the stone is blissfully cool.
(Alucard is blissfully cool in this heat, as well, and that's certainly one good thing to come out of the outburst last week, but he can hardly spend whole days wrapped around him.)
There is work to be done, though much of it is infuriatingly reliant upon Alucard because you can't make steps from the top of a thing downwards and getting in and out of the hold under his own steam is a task that would take half the day in itself, but all of it is the kind of hard work that's made hellish by the heat. He's taken to working from dawn until the heat becomes too much, and then from late afternoon until dark. By now it probably isn't a surprise, even if it not being a surprise doesn't make it any less weird, that he's just lying on his front on the ground, shirt discarded somewhere to one side, head resting on his folded arms until the heat starts to pass with the afternoon.

Because it's too fucking warm. ]
