[ The pressure against his shoulder is slow enough that it's not a surprise and the way Houou's mind swims with other moments, it's welcome.

Sage advice, but do not fret, I rest-- meditation mostly, sleep when it can be found..
[ The warmth and weight is comforting, Naruto's mere presence in fact; the rough murmur across his thoughts has become a common occurrence and after a day of stress and fear, Houou - for once - finds himself fatigued enough to relax just that bit more.
There's a moment when he glances down, he expects a grey ponytail or soft brown braids or even tidy flicks of black hair - this position, so many times with those close to him, close to his heart.. - they overlay in flickers until there's only sunshine blonde left. ]
..fear not, I'll wake you before dawn.
[ There's a breath of humour to the thought given Houou's track history. ]
