For a while, Jake thought Finn might actually fall asleep against him. He wasn't necessarily looking forward to walking the rest of the way home at this awkward angle, but there were worse things. For example, dislodging his baby bro midnap. He stretches an arm over him, rubbing his back with easy affection.
Jake was midway through planning the logistics of the rest of the trip home when Finn spoke, recapturing his direct attention. The hand against him stalled mid-pet, only to quickly resume as Finn began talking. Far be it from him to give Finn the impression his honesty was going to disrupt those small comforts, especially when he seemed to need them most.
Even if that honesty scared the crap out of Jake.
"Yeah?" He asks, trying to sound more casual than he felt. "Well, we can fix that, dude. This is the first fight you've been in since Fern, it's natchy being stressed out. What went through your mind when you were up there?"
