(But a noble cause nonetheless)


Nagi woke up feeling groggy, his pillow feeling suspiciously much like a keyboard and the crick in his neck felt suspiciously like what one usually felt when falling asleep while sitting in a chair.
What had he been doing last night that'd caught his attention so much? Nagi took a moment to rewind. The last he'd looked on a clock, it was past five in the morning... He'd felt the need to rest his head, just for a moment. Before that... Before that he'd been hacking. Hacking into high security Kritiker files...
His eyes shot open and his head up as he stared at his screen. Thank god, he'd at least had the presence of mind to log himself out of the data-base. It really wouldn't do to get caught in there. He sighed and blearilly looked around the room. His desk was littered with empty coffee-cups and energy drink-cans. The chair Farf had been sitting in last night was vacated and- Nagi double-checked. A soft mewling could be heard from his left pant-leg.
He looked down and there was the cat, staring up at him with soulful eyes, as if certain that Nagi would know what to do for him.

Still feeling far from fantastic - a quick glance at the clock in the bottom of his screen told him he'd had about three hours of sleep - Nagi picked the little thing up and cradeled it in his arms the way Farf had shown him. Carefully carrying the small animal, he made his way to the kitchen and livingroom in search for Farf and something that would stop the kitten from mewling so pittyfully.

Farfarello was sitting on the couch, playing solitaire with a well-worn deck of cards while the tv was on low, playing some damned infomercial. It was more there for background noise than anything else.

He'd left Nagi's room just shortly before Nagi had fallen asleep; had he known the boy would end up sleeping at his computer, he'd have moved him to his bed. He was half-finished his nth cup of coffee, picking it up and finishing it in one go, tensing suddenly as he heard footsteps.

The sound of their kitten mewling made him smile though as he looked at Nagi, sleepy, holding the tiny kitten in his arms, standing up after a moment. "Hey, Nags. Everythin' alright?"

Farfarello laughed quietly and put a hand on Nagi's shoulder, leading him toward the food dishes in the kitchen and motioning to them, "Put 'im down; if it's food he wants, it's right there for 'im."

He went back to the livingroom to grab his mug, then returned to the kitchen. He'd been making coffee all night, thinking it endlessly to the point where his hands were actually shaking slightly at this point. He poured himself a cup and grabbed a mug for Nagi, not even needing to ask the kid to know that he needed some as well.

He handed Nagi his cup and took a long sip from his own, easily able to ignore how hot it was.

Farfarello watched the kitten for a long moment before his assessing gaze turned toward Nagi himself, looking at him critically for a minute or two before he spoke.

"Ye fell asleep at yer keyboard, didn't ye? I can see keyboard imprints on yer forehead." His voice was amused, but his single eye showed concern; Nagi needed more sleep than he was currently getting, or he'd be useless to them all.

Farfarello tousled Nagi's hair gently as he shook his head, "Aye, but ye're too tired to be much good. I'm good for prob'ly another day or so if I have to stay up, so I won't sleep yet. You should, though. Ye're needed at yer best, mentally." Farfarello wasn't, really. He just needed to be at his best to..play guard dog, really. At least, for now.

"I shouldn't have given ye coffee; really, ye should get some more sleep, Nags."

Farfarello's eye narrowed as he looked at Nagi, cuffing him gently, "Then they'll wake ye up if they need ye. Or I can wake ye up. Doesn't matter, ye need to sleep."

And if the others had a problem with it, they could bring it up with Farfarello himself; he wasn't letting Nagi work himself to the point where he was too drained to think straight. That would only make things worse and he could be caught in the midst of his hacking; a point that he brought up to the youth as well.

"An', what happens if ye're too tired to realize that someone's caught on to ye? Or ye're too tired so ye're too slow to do anythin' about it? Sleep, kiddo." It was, essentially, an order. Well, as much of one as Farfarello could give.

Farfarello bent down and picked up the kitten, then started nudging Nagi toward his room. "Good, now get goin'. I'll wake ye up as soon as the others get out of bed." He was smiling just slightly now, relieved that Nagi would be getting some more rest.

He could continue playing solitaire until everyone was awake and ready to go for the day.. Though he could possibly check on Schuldig and Crawford and see if they'd be even out of bed today; he could see about getting them something to eat, even, and mentally started trying to figure out what he could make.

Farfarello only watched Nagi long enough to make sure he was asleep, then he took the kitten with him back to the livingroom and continued his game of solitaire while petting the little guy, a pleased little smile playing on his lips.
