The initial jolt of adrenaline has long-since disappeared. His exhaustion is tenfold now, being pulled mid REM-cycle destroying what little there was to gain from his short sleep. He nods tired. "Oh, yes," he says quietly. "I most certainly can go back to sleep."
But more rest goes for both of them, not just himself. Raju needs a reset, a fresh start; he needs to rest his body and at least attempt to let his mind drift away from his troubles.
"Do you think you could sleep now?"
Crozier can't bat his eyelashes. He wishes he could, and look alluring and sweet in his pleading, instead of just kind of odd, but he must play with the cards he's been dealt. He smiles, tries a little head tilt, inviting him to join him so they both won't be so miserable tonight.
