Your Honor I love them, I adore them, I will protecc them and give them the world-

The babies sleeping

Also this was an excuse to ramble about Del’s sleeping habits so here goes:

They’ve had a lot of trouble sleeping ever since their mom and younger brother died. We’re talking nightmares, insomnia, lots of not so fun stuff.

However, sleeping near / in the same room as someone helps a lot ! Lightens the stress of being alone in the dark for long periods of time. So once they start living at Bodie’s things get a lot better thanks to the boys !

Now.

You’d think it would be the same with Milo.

It is not.

They don’t necessarily have trouble sleeping around him, but they become extremely aware of their surroundings when he is asleep.

Most of it stems from losing their little brother so young, and they’re scared of Milo disappearing the same way without them being awake to protect him. Which results in them becoming an extremely light sleeper and waking up at the slightest noise.

It gets better with time but it’s a little rough for a while. If Milo sleeps in Del’s bed they’re always curled up around him, holding him with one arm and often letting him use their other arm as a pillow.

If a noise wakes them up they’ll curl up around him even more in a protective way.

Not that Milo minds tho, he’s a cuddle fiend ! He also sleeps like a rock
