Summary
Their hopes of John being able to finally sleep —and with that, dream— fizzled out after a few nights. He would lull Arthur to sleep with his rambling, talking about what he missed about being in the real world, and what he hoped they would get up to. He would slip in pressing Arthur about seeing that movie whenever he got the chance. Eventually Arthur would doze off, leaving John in the dark for a few hours until he woke up; albeit from a nightmare, John brushing his hand along Arthur’s cheek, or simply the sun shining through the window.
One of the first things Arthur would say is if John had dreamt, always being answered back with a grumbled “no”.
To which Arthur, being the optimist, would say “Well, there’s always tonight”.

Summary
When Arthur is asleep, John is haunted. Every bit of his surface area is too hot, too cold, too aching, too empty. John is convinced it goes beyond wanting. Every fiber of his limited existence craves touch and simultaneously rages with burning jealousy that it’s not easy to ask for.
or, 5 times John navigates his relationship to touch without a body + 1 time with a body
