Addam awoke with a start to find a pen jabbing into his cheek, no hand holding it but his own. What had he...?

Ah. Fallen asleep at his desk - a good look for the Lord of Aletta, wasn't it?

Grumbling, he stood, stretched, and crossed into the bedroom, where all was still dark save for thin flecks of light pushing their way in through the blinds. He'd just turn on the lamp, and...

"GAH!"

"Wh- Addam?! What is it, are you alright?"

He was, after he'd blinked, copiously.

"Flora...I'd hardly recognized you."

"Serves you right - even I get bedhead!"
