[Jasper chuckles a bit at that as he pulls himself to sit back up again.]
Do be cautious about repeating that when I am better rested, Hendrik. I may very well be compelled to see if she is interested in a conspiracy against you.
[He's at least polite enough to cover his mouth as he yawns, then reluctantly pushes himself to his feet and brushes his bangs aside as he does so.]
Fortunately for you, I am presently in need of some rest so that I can wake up in time to make sure she is fed. I would imagine you also need some time to go over the notes for tomorrow's speech, do you not?
[Jasper's words loosen a snort of amusement from Hendrik, and he slowly climbs to his feet as well, setting the emptied goblet on the chair he just vacated.]
I will at least make the attempt before I go to sleep.
[Someday he will not do his studying at the last minute. Today is not that day.]
I shall drop by after I finish with my business at noon, if it pleases you. Best give you as much daylight as possible for your shopping.
Ah, I would be ever so tempted to see if I could sit in under other circumstances, but... well, I have other concerns at the moment.
[Jasper picks up his own goblet and picks up Hendrik's so he can put it on his desk, before heading towards the divider separating his bed from the rest of his room.]
I shall see you then, my friend. Have a good night.
