Sometimes, in the middle of the night

Summary:

"Krejjh, if you had to guess, how often do you feel the urge to destroy all humans?"

"Mmmm... sometimes, in the middle of the night... when you steal all the covers."

Krejjh was woken from a peaceful sleep by a blast of cold.

Notes:

I needed a comfort listen recently and Starship Iris was right there (as it always is 💖), so I put on episode 1.03, In the Deep. A few days later, my brain just had the urge to turn Krejjh’s joke about Brian stealing all the covers into a Brian/Krejjh drabble. (I relate to this scenario, though it’s possible that I may be the cover thief. No-one can confirm 👀)

This is early days Brian/Krejjh, set pre-canon. I was tempted to title it 'The Urge to Destroy All Humans' but thought that might be a bit misleading, tone-wise xD

Krejjh was woken from a peaceful sleep by a blast of cold.

They frowned and groped around for blankets - all of which were wrapped firmly around their soundly-sleeping frie- love- around Crewman Jeeter.

“Crewman Jeeter? Crewman-”

The only response was a snore.

Krejjh huffed. Human-style co-sleeping had been going fine. Dwarnians typically slept in emreh groups of several members, so just two had seemed ridiculously simple. Until now.

After ten minutes of attempts to wake him, Krejjh gave up, tugging at Crewman Jeeter’s shoulder until he rolled half on top of them, arm flopping over them.

Krejjh snuggled in. There.
