Ugh, Griffin was adorable. Toby loved her. He wondered what it would take to be able to, like, properly adopt her and take her home and everything. She could live in his room. Toby was pretty sure he wouldn't be allowed to take her, but maybe he could SNEAK her out. That would probably last about... five minutes, before he was caught.

Worth it, though.

But he needed to stop thinking about Grand Theft Griffin, and focus on the task at hand; trying to get the baby griffin to sleep. It wouldn't take long, Toby was sure. But he was sort of wary as it meant that once she was asleep, he'd have to leave her here 'til he came back later. And Toby didn't want to do that. He already missed all his pets AND two whole family members 100% of the time, so...

... soooooooooooo, he was just gonna... lay down and take a nap with Griffin. He had no more classes for the day, after all, and it was still early afternoon. Toby was just... doing his homework.

And so it was that he scooted around a little to that eventually he was lying down on the stable floor, curled up a bit to make a space for Griffin and keep her warm, one arm curled protectively around the bundle of blankets.

"It's time to sleep now, Griffin," he said to the creature, who indeed looked like she was about to slip into griffin!dreamland. "I'll stay here for a while, yeah? I'll talk to you 'til you sleep. How's that sound?"

Griffin didn't respond, not even with a squawk or anything, just snuggled down in her blanket. She was actually probably already going to go to sleep, but Toby still spoke to her about nothing in particular. Random little stories about recent Hogwarts things, stuff about home, even a little made up story about a baby Griffin. And then, eventually, when she was fast asleep, he allowed himself to snooze too, right there on the floor of the stables. Protecting Griffin, cuddling, keeping her company, all that. Later, when he woke, he'd go back to the castle, show his face so people knew he'd not fallen off the face of the earth. But now was time for a nap with Griffin.
