"I do not sleep," growls Rush, "on couches."

He makes it to the door and leans against it with a press of forehead to wood as he attempts to condense his perception and his irritation and his fatigue into something marginally workable. There are a number of things he can ascertain. One - recently, to his superb exasperation and despite his endurance and continued resistance to any such outcome, he fell asleep. Two - he fell asleep on a couch. Three - Asadi is present. Four -

He savagely aborts any further enumeration when his mind brings all the relevant pieces together under a single permutation: he is not in his apartment. He is in Asadi's apartment, and it is, clearly, early enough in the morning for him to be sufficiently disoriented.

Rush sighs and opens his eyes. The vertical streaks of wood grain inches from his nose are incapable of holding his interest, and he turns away.
