Joshua suddenly knows what it feels like to have a wild animal fall asleep on your lap in pure, unadulterated comfort. Not that he would ever call Dion "wild", of course - but he had certainly been distanced like one might be, to keep himself safe. But this slipping of his walls is...
Precious. Utterly, undeniably precious. He cannot see it as anything but. And the nuzzle into his chest is the final strike of a hammer to the nail.
Gently, he presses a kiss to the top of Dion's head, letting himself selfishly linger for a moment to breathe in the scent of the soaps Dion has used in his hair. He won't disturb Dion further, listening and waiting for his breath to slow into the deeper breathing of unconsciousness. And, once he does, he very carefully untucks one of his wings from behind himself, unfolding it over and around the two of them like a blanket.
Perhaps he will get a little bit of sleep himself. ]
