[She's not going to sleep, but she exhales, letting Tess pet her hair. It feels nice.]

[There's not much to say past that. If anything, Tess keeps on running her fingers through, tries to be as comforting as she can, all things considered. Out of anything, she's on the edge of losing her cool and snapping, but that's the last thing anyone needs.

So she keeps quiet for the rest of the night, waits to hear Ellie's breathing even out before she even thinks about laying down herself. It's a long night.]
