[Irene actually moves from Finley for just a moment to hop over to rub her head against the man's shoulder. Don't be sad, old man!]
And you followed my advice. That's why I'm not upset at all. You asked around, found out information, and now you know! The basis of investigation, is it not?
[He'll shift his hand to brush his thumb over the other's cheek.]
I shall be behind you all the way, you know. Of course, I'll tell you when you're having an incredibly stupid idea not even worth sharing with everyone, but that's just my treat of honesty, for you.
[ He can't help but laugh at that bluntness. Perhaps if they weren't as close as they are or if the general situation were not so stressful, he'd be giving him some dramatic protest over that. This is fine, though. ]
My own personal consultant. Lucky me. [ This might read sarcastic, but it's not. ] I'm glad to have you to help pull me back when I'm going into dangerous grounds.
[She was just bapping because you were being sad! Stop being sad, old man! But she relaxes at the touch, nose twitching. Sholmes lets out a pleased sigh at it.]
You are tired. Do you want to rest? It might be best, if we want to go ahead with the idea we had.
[The dumb hug booth idea they totally have discussed prior to this.]
[He'll shift the book away just so he can turn and wrap his arms around the other man, sighing with content. Irene moves to loaf against the man's back, content for the touch.]
[ Kotetsu moves around arm around Sholmes, but lets himself be held like this and just snuggling right in. Finley curls up against Sholmes' back. That nice, safe feeling being here. ]

I couldn't ask for anyone better to have my back.

I should recharge my batteries a bit. Though, I'm already starting to feel better laying here with you... You're good for the soul.
[ And with that comment, Finley pads over and nuzzles Sholmes affectionately, right at the side of his face and at his neck. She loves Sholmes, too. ]

[Gesturing! And smiling at Finley coming over - he'll warmly move to scritch her over her neck, petting the side of her neck.]
We can take a short nap.

[ He feels warmth spread through him at that touch and then shifts to get comfortable with Sholmes.
Finley makes a content sound at that. ]
