[devoutish]

Royce, it's a fucking word. We want people to stay with us, too.

[bywolves]

It's a word that has meaning in context. [ Royce says bitterly. ] If I say no?

[devoutish]

Are you going to say no?

[bywolves]

I asked first.

[devoutish]

I can't chase you all over the town.

[bywolves]

No, you can't. Nor should you.

[ Royce stares up at the ceiling. ] I haven't decided. I've only reached the end of my patience.

[devoutish]

We only have a couple months left. You don't want to spend that on your own, mate.

[bywolves]

[ This is harder because Royce knows he can't do the same thing to Alfie that he can to Tifa - Alfie won't stand for it. And Alfie's right. Royce doesn't want to be alone, not really. ]

I do. [ But he lies anyway. ] I can't go anywhere tonight. It's not worth arguing about.

[devoutish]

I don't believe that you want to be on your own. I believe you wish you wanted that.

Don't sneak out in the morning.

[bywolves]

[ SHUSH you don't know him, Alfie! Except for how you do. ]

Fine. [ Royce says, with a sigh. He kind of just. Sits on the stairs. ]

[devoutish]

You're taking one of the empty bedrooms tonight?

[bywolves]

[ He shakes his head. ] I don't care. I'll sleep wherever there's room.

[devoutish]

You can stay with us. We'll all take a room together.

[bywolves]

Alright. [ He doesn't have the energy to argue anymore. There isn't any point. ] I can take watch.

[devoutish]

We'll take shifts, yeah? You and me.

[Let the girls sleep.]

[bywolves]

Mm. [ Royce looks up at Alfie for a second, like he's going to say something, and then he just nods. You and me. It'd be a lie if he said that wasn't good to hear. ]
