Archie let his head fall to the pillow, feeling rather dazed. He hadn't been expecting that, not at all, though... it felt very much like it could be a good thing. He was calm now, at least. He could still feel it all, bubbling away under the surface but he was trying to focus on this, on lying here with Horatio and William.
