Room 406, evening

This is Isabel in her room watching the download of last week's episode of Spooky Things. Damn the boys are pretty.

The door was open.

"Want to try the bed first? It's comfier," she pointed out. "The floor should be the last resort."

Greg nodded and stumbled towards the bed.

He concentrated and managed to keep from going through the bed.

As pleased as she possibly could be given the circumstances, Isabel reached for a blanket. "Okay, that's a start. Let's see how the blankets work." Using her powers, she heated up the blanket so that it felt like it had just come out of a warm dryer and tried to drape it over him.

He was concentrating, so he stayed solid enough for the blanket not to go through him. "Thanks," he said shakily. "I don't know what's happening."

"Something weird I'm sure," Isabel said quietly as she carefully sat down next to him. "But we've dealt with weird before. We'll deal with this. Want me to lay down with you? Body heat and all that?"

"I think I can touch you as long as I'm focusing," he said, nodding.

"Good. Then focus on this." She leaned down and gave him a gentle kiss.

He was too tired to really do much of anything, but he concentrated his energy on returning the kiss. "I don't want to stay like this," he mumbled unhappily.

"You won't," Isabel promised, stretching out next to him. "We'll figure it out. Why don't you go to sleep? I'll stay right here."

"Mmkay," Greg said, and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Part of his leg immediately sank a little into the mattress, but the rest of him managed to stay solid.

Isabel gently ran her fingers through his hair.

It took a long, long time for her to fall asleep.
