[He raises a hand, wanting to point out the crunching crackers, but thinks better of it. He doesn't think of any further protest or excuse to offer either. He didn't want to take away her chance to sleep...

O-okay... Um... thanks...?
[He makes his retreat for the room, checking that it's not the one with the bookshelf before stepping inside. He then goes to shut the door, pauses a moment, and calls out.]
Good night...
[He won't undress. This is a world where one needs to be ready quickly, even if they aren't hiding secrets much worse. The boots stay on, the gaiter and goggles stay on. The quiver and bow, he decides, can come off. Those are settled at the bedside. He's a little sorry that he's going to make the bed filthy, but this is the apocalypse and that's how things go. He lays down on it, curling up on his side. He's surprised by the comfort. How long has it been since he slept in a bed? He doesn't have an answer for that.
He hopes she won't worry. He hopes she won't check on him. And more than that, he hopes she won't check his pulse. But, after a little while, he allows himself some rest. All in all, if nothing happens, it will only be a few short hours before he's up again.]
