(She is made of glass in comparison to the two of them, but they will always argue about it. It isn't important now.
Alucard rises, but he moves slowly, still unsure. When he reaches Trevor, he stands closer to Sypha, like that might deflect any more negativity if it comes.)
[He's stiff for a moment. Unsure. Terrified. But it melts away all at once, and with that one of Alucard's arms is wrapped around Sypha's shoulder, the other slung low around Trevor's hip. He's found a way to rest his forehead against Sypha's head and Trevor's chest at the same time, and this is...
...exactly what he's wanted for some time now, isn't it?]
[ This is all any of them have wanted since the dreams began. It’s perfect. In the absence of everything outside of it, it’s perfect. He leans down to kiss the top of Alucard’s head. Sypha nuzzles fondly at his cheek. ]
You don’t need to be sorry. Just promise that you won’t let him hurt her.
[This stupid cave is full of far too many emotions. Fear is one of the strongest, but it's settling now. Allowing the much more proper ones to take root, and for that, there is a soft sight out of the vampire.
He tries to draw himself closer to them both. He probably fails. That's just fine.]
[ And he lays back, pulling the both of them with him. It's- a little less perfect in real life, in truth. Dream logic allows for things like ignoring how bony Alucard is, how Sypha's robes always find a way to end up inconveniently and uncomfortably wrapped around some limb or another.
But it's also real. It's real, at last, and whatever price they have to pay for that later might just be worth it. ]
[ Sypha's the most vulnerable of them to sleepiness, and she's already moving to pull a few of the furs from the ground over them. He can't blame her - it's earlier than they'd usually sleep, but worrying about the vampire boyfriend for the last few days is tiring work. ]
We're going to have to start doing work at night, eventually.
[ But he doesn't sound like he's in a hurry to move. Even if he could. ]
[Alucard's happy to move past it entirely. He instead sighs, content and quiet and so very, very quiet. Sypha's rest is well deserved, and maybe it'll be nice to just watch her sleep.]
Don't reorient the entire schedule for my sake. Please. I'd rather just fall asleep with you both.
And here I'd thought you'd have had enough of sleeping.
[ He doesn't really want to test Dracula's patience too much, and they were told that his purpose in letting Alucard be with them was to work and further his campaign of kind-of-being-helpful.
But one night. They can have one night, at least. He raises a hand to Sypha's hair, combing his fingers through it. ]
Still, doubt you're going to give me permission to get up and move any time soon.
[ Sypha makes a sleepy noise in response. Nope. He's not going to get permision to leave until she's good and ready. ]

Sorry for being an ass about it.

[Alucard likes how Sypha's robes catch. That Trevor's softer than he thought is nice too, and everything else is...
this is good.
Better than dreams, because it isn't confined to that space.]
