[Aside from the room, it seems the rest of the castle is dark and uninviting, and Rin doesn't need to pull back the curtains to know the outside doesn't fair any better. If he thinks he can try and fool Sousuke into believing otherwise though, then he's probably worse off than he thought... Still, stubbornness keeps him going, and by the time he's halfway across the room he's managed to stabilize his legs. He can say he sat on them weird, that they fell asleep and they're just waking up now. A little white lie on top of more little white lies.
How much longer will he have to keep this up?
Not for long, looks like, because soon Sousuke reaches out for him and with a gentle, surprised noise he stops and glances over his shoulder. This again... He's not gonna push him up against a door this time though, is he?]
... I'm tired.
[That's not a lie.]
We're both tired. And we've been thinking a lot so--
[Looking away again, but not walking off just yet. The hair falling over the back of his neck leaves his skin feeling especially sensitive, so he twitches out of reflex, like he wants to reach up again to brush it away.]

That's all.
