what had him up so late?

that he lost something inside the house and couldn't sleep until he found it again.

though in the end he fell asleep looking for it...

found that rather cute. He would help look though if he wanted.

doesn't want to bother Basch but what he lost was a watch that Mitzi gave him years ago.

doesn't think it's bothering. He would be happy to help. ((Gah Plurk is keeping replies from me.))

explains that it's a silver pocket watch with goats on the front cover.

nods to him. "Understood. I will keep my eyes open." He pauses, before gently pushing Aloys towards bed. "On the otherhand, you need sleep."

blinks at him, his eyes dragging to come back up. "Are you sure...? I should help if you're going to be looking.."

shakes his head before pulling the blanket back so he could lay down. "Nein, you need to sleep."

"Alright..." he lays down. "Thank you..."

tucks him in, nodding to him. "Of course. Gute Nacht."

, "Gute Nacht," and is quickly drifting off.

gathers some things he would need and sets off to find the watch. He ends up spending the day and a good part of the night searching.
