"You just can't decide whether you like being Pillow or not, can you?" Keag asked merrily, a laughing lilt to her voice as Finn feigned indignation, rather dramatically, if she dare say so.
The Lioness watched with passive interest as Finn followed along the path she had taken up the bed and plopped down beside her. "Oh, I don't know. Are we?" she asked.

"You pick," Finn replied casually, glancing sideways up at the girl and taking a cheap shot by poking her lightly in the side. She still hadn't got him back for tickling her earlier, and he feared that by instigating this one, he was about to feel the effects of karma.

"I guess it depends, then. I have to know all the de- EEP!" Keag managed to get out before she felt the ticklish touch of Finn's finger in her side. She scowled and swatted at his hand as she tried to continue. "Details before I can make a decision. What are we switching?"
She gave Finn a playfully warnful look before she stopped swatting him.

Finn just swatted back at her as she swatted at him, laughing slightly at her childish reaction, but finding it adorable all the same. "Switching Pillow duties," he answered, "I get a chance to lie on you. Mind you, my big head might crush you..."
Chuckling at himself, Finn took another chance and poked her again. It was funny, seeing her flinch, and he knew he was going to get it later anyways, so it was worth it now.

"I doubt you'd crush me," Keagan replied with a roll of her eyes. She was about to agree to the swap when she felt another poke at her side. Her eyes immediately shrunk into a glare as she looked down at the boy on the bed beside her. She couldn't believe he had done so again, and yet a part of her thought it had been inevitable.
Pouncing with the agility she had developed as a Quidditch player, Keagan took the pillow that lay on her lap and placed it over Finn, smothering him, but not in a violent fashion. Hoping this was distraction enough, she attempted to take revenge by poking the Ravenclaw in the same place he had poked her.

Finn smiled sweetly up at Keagan as she turned and glared down at him. He hoped that a sweet smile would get him off the hook, but he knew better. He was really in for it now.
Yelping slightly at Keag's suddenly move, Finn tried to wiggle out of the way. However, he was smothered and attacked, being poked where he had poked Keagan. Finn was a lot more ticklish than Keag and he burst into laughter immediately. "No! N-not fair! Uncle!!" Finn choked out between spurts of chuckles and laughs, "Not fair!"

Finn had said Uncle far quicker than Keagan would have expected or preferred, but listening to his laughter coming out, sounding almost painful after only one poke, she couldn't help but pity the poor boy. And so she took mercy on him, for now, plucking her pillow from off of him and resuming her seated position again.
"Be good," she warned, though she didn't know if she would have the heart to force that upon him again, no matter how much she herself secretly enjoyed being tickled. She knew she never succumbed to such raucous laughter so quickly, so she figured it must be different for him.

Finn's laughter died down slowly and he grinned up at Keagan. "Alright, alright, I'll behave," he caved finally, pushing her pillow out of the way to make room for himself, "Now shove a bum and make room." He winked at Keagan before finding himself a spot.
Her lap was quite comfortable, so that's were Finn's head took up temporary residence. He snuggled in, taking her hand in his again and locked their fingers. "This is definitely good," he stated, rubbing his thumb across the back of her hand again. Finn liked the way it felt on his thumb, so soft and so perfect. Very Keagan.

Keag giggled as Finn made room for his head on her lap and said something that, inconsequentially, didn't make much sense to the Gryffindor. He was silly, and it was one of the many things Keagan was coming to love about the boy who now lay in her lap.
Now, her one hand caught in his, Keagan's other fell lightly atop Finn's head, stroking against the hair at the crown of it. She loved the feel of his thumb on the back of her hand as he stroked it. It was an almost intimate touch, it seemed to her, though it did not require much proximity at all. Perhaps that was part of what she loved.
"I'm glad you like my lap," she stated herself, grinning down at the Ravenclaw.

Once again, Keagan was stroking his hair. It always seemed that he ended up with her hand, and she ended up with his hair. He wasn't complaining, Finn loved the feeling of her hands in it. It was like some kind of weird connection, and he felt closer to her than anyone else but saying that didn't really do it justice.
"What a pair we make," Finn muttered softly, still stroking Keag's hand.

"I think we're a very odd pair," Keagan replied, tilting her head back against the wall. Her hand lazily ventured to other places on Finn's head and came to brush against the shell of his ear at one point.
"Such a very odd pair." The Gryffindor smiled faintly and pondered what exactly made her think they were such an odd pair, but wasn't quite sure why she thought that.

Things were starting to quite down now. The tickling was over and they'd resorted to lying down again. Which meant the sleep was fighting to come back as well. Finn forced his eyes open, determined to not fall back asleep. However, he was fighting a losing battle. With Keagan's hands in his hair, stroking it lightly, he was in trouble. He didn't want her to stop, but it was part of what was making him so sleepy.
His mouth started to open slightly, letting the yawn out. He forced it shut, trying to keep it in but that wasn't working either. Damn it! Finn cursed himself in his head.

Hearing Finn's yawn, Keagan's hand began to ruffle his hair instead of stroke it, not that it changed Finn's appearance much today. "You're not falling asleep on me, are you?" she asked, a laugh in her voice at the double meaning of her words. She supposed she wouldn't mind so much if he did, but if either of them was going to sleep, it seemed to make more sense now to just go back to their dorms instead.

Hearing Finn's nod, Keagan's hand began to ruffle his hair instead of stroke it, not that it changed Finn's appearance much today. (I resent that!! XD) "No," Finn lied through another yawn. He chuckled slightly and rolled over so he was now facing up at Keagan. Snuggling himself back in, Finn's eyes wandered up to meet Keag's. He breathed out deeply, blowing a pathetic raspberry at Keag. "I just got so...tired," he said, having a yawn cut him off mid-sentence.

Keagan giggled and rolled her eyes at the raspberry Finn blew. "Tired, huh?" she asked, stroking the tip of her finger featherlightly against the shell of his nearest ear. She knew she was ticklish here, but wondered if Finn was, too. "That tends to be what happens when you lie down, get comfortable, and close your eyes."
Notice, if you will, that Keagan hadn't allowed herself to lie down, for she knew she would be in the same dire straits if she had.
