"Heeey, you've reached Yang! Well, actually, you didn't reach far enough, 'cause I'm not here right now! But don't yang up! Just leave a message on this baby, and I'll get back to you soon enough, okay?"
[Naoki's pretty good with taking his time, though he feels more aware once they're outside. He looks around as they walk toward Yang's apartment, shifting to walk closer with her like he can share any warmth against the cool of outside.]
[Even when she's sleepy, she still says things like that...] Thanks. [He bumps their shoulders.] But I'll try not to make a habit of getting you to come over so late.
Go ahead. [He grins sidelong, his own steps slowing as he turns his face toward her apartment. Naoki's hand absently tightens with hers before he resumes his pace.]

Yeah, someone needs a bed. ]

Haha, I will. I'll set up a good spot so you can sleep over next time.

[ Mostly asleep or not, he should know that she'll call him on his jokes by now. But there's her apartment, and Yang slows, turning her gaze to it. ]

Until then, go get some sleep.

[ There's a pause, before she squeezes his hand and slips her hand free to work the sweater off. ]

We can train together later tomorrow too, so get a lot of sleep.

Night, Naoki.
