Glitch had swum for hours, chasing fish and insects and bubbles and sunbeams. Eventually, worn out and tired, he had swum to shore and curled up on the bank on the sun warmed pebbles, grumbling about his lack of coat until he fell asleep.

He woke up with Rennie shaking him, a scolding voice telling him he had to come in, he was all wet and dirty and needed a bath and clean clothes, and was she going to have to strap him in the chair.

Glitch reacted predictably.

He screamed at her, judo flipped her while sitting down, dove into the water, swam to a far edge and took off.

Rennie asked Cain to go find Glitch and bring him in before he froze or hurt himself.

Glitch had retreated to the rotunda, sitting on the seat and swinging himself back and forth, watching the sun setting on the lake. He was soaking wet again, but his trembling didn't seem to worry him at all.

"No, I'm saying I won't wake you up if I wake up in the middle of the night and you're still asleep."

He nods. "I can live with that."

He settles in, does his best to relax with his head resting on his arm. Maybe it'll be a long night of trying to go to sleep, but it'll be fine. Glitch is there.

Glitch keeps holding onto Wyatt's hand, watching it for a while before closing his eyes. "Night, Wyatt."

"Good night, Sweetheart."

Following Glitch's cue, it isn't long at all before he's drifting off to sleep. Holding hands in the moonlight.
