Let's... call it a temporary arrangement. If either of us ever actually need the bed-- for, back pain or muscle cramps or whatever-- we'll tell you and we can switch out. That work?
[He's just here finishing his tart like a good person.]
Wouldn't that just cramp her up with one of us on the couch then? [You know. The thing they were trying to avoid to make sure she was comfortable and all that? This is a bad time to point out logic.] Sleeping on the floor isn't the worst thing. And there's always the bathtub.
[You know what? He's going to get up and actually go check out the bathtub for the purpose of this conversation. He comes back after a few minutes (and ignore the squeaking of his sneakers on the tile of the tub in the meantime) and he sits on the arm of the couch again.]
The bed is Escha's unless a trade is necessary. We can agree on that. [...ugh. He doesn't want to ask. He really, really, doesn't, but...] Is it really going to bother you that much if it's just you?
[ They're not agreeing on it because Escha nods. ]
It will. The bed is big enough for all of us, there's no reason I should be the only one that gets to sleep comfortably. No one is sleeping in the tub, and neither of you should be getting so little sleep that you're sleeping in shifts!
Shut up. [Look. But ah. He looks at the bed from his place on the couch and settles for a squint toward it.] On the other hand, nobody says we'll sleep comfortably with all three of us either. [But...there's a look of consideration there as he tries to puzzle that out.]
[ She just meant that it was like a big bed for just one person, she hadn't really considered all of them actually sharing it. Or her sharing it with anyone, because she still thinks her on the couch and them on the bed makes the most sense. ]
I think it'd be hard to be worse than the tub. [ that aside; ] So what's the actual plan, here?
[ honestly, he has no issue sharing a sleeping space with anyone, it just seemed a bit messed up in this specific scenario because of all the. y'know. sex stuff. ]
[Kill him. Anyway...he looks at the couch. Which is actually a fucking loveseat. And then he looks at Dick, and then at Escha, and then at the couch again.]
You're taller than me. Would you even fit on this thing? [He says, as if he wouldn't have to tetris himself to fit. And then there's an annoyed sigh.] Alright look maybe we can try it for a night just to get it out of the way and see if it works. If it doesn't, we'll go back and do it the way Dick and I suggested sleeping in shifts on the couch while Escha takes the bed. That way everybody gets some answers.
[ Hrmrmrmg Escha doesn't like this but she also doesn't like arguing for too long or being pushy, so she's just!! Silently like >:T but not arguing!!! ]
Fitting's not a problem for me. [ i mean, listen, junpei can't throw a challenge like that at a guy who enjoys showing off, because that's exactly what he does, putting the tart down and doing that classic contortionist pose where they hold themselves up with their arms and bring their legs up and around their leg. this is completely unnecessary.
anyway the show off thing done he drops the pose and picks his tart back up ]
So after all that we're bed sharing?
[ he's too tired to not find it funny. pointless stubborn arguments are hilarious ]
[He actually climbs up a little higher so he's perched on the back of the couch instead of the arm to watch? That's fine? This is so unnecessary but Dick is being a show-off and Junpei just...sighs. Of course this is what he's stuck with.] Stop, I got it.
[With the dramatics from both of the idiots in the room finished, he settles for a nod. Glad they're all like this.]
It looks like it. [Cannot believe this. But, to Escha:] Are you good with that?
[Like she wasn't the one who has been trying to get them to make a decision for the last ten minutes.]
[ Escha claps lightly for Dick when he's doing contortionist stuff because?? Wow???
And looks pretty relieved at the solution, just by virtue of it not putting anyone on the floor or in a TUB. ]
I don't mind. I don't think I move around a lot in my sleep, and I don't take up a lot of space, either! [ Looks at size chart for this game... Escha smol... ]
[Escha will quickly come to learn she just agreed to share a bed with two stealth-clingers, it's fine. In the end, yeah, he's...kind of assessing their sizes and the bed.]
We'll make it work. If it doesn't, then...we'll figure something else out. [The "it doesn't" is if one of them kicks a lot or something, whatever. There's a huff of laughter.] Wonder if any of the others are having this problem.
[He means about agreeing on the bed in general, not having three of them. They're special.]

It should be two in the bed and one on the couch. Maybe we could just do a rotation...?

It has to be more comfortable than a bathtub.

...keep an eye on her. See if anything changes. If they really want us to be doing this we might see some results from her efforts.
