Théadan could see the thoughts whirring through Navia's head, she looked a little lost at first upon realising she no longer had a proper pillow to sleep on, just all the decorative ones that lay strewn about him. Her eyes were soon upon him and then his cushion, which he clutched a little more tightly already well aware of just how deft Navia's fingers were when she desired to pilfer something. She pouted, and pretended to seek sympathy, which only had him narrowing his eyes a little more, watching her every movement warily. She took a couple steps forward gauging him, now clearly intent on retrieving a pillow or turning the situation around somehow to her advantage, still using attempts for sympathy to make him let his guard down.<br/><br/>Using her pregnancy to draw sympathy from him, nearly succeeded. As much as Théadan enjoyed their games, knowing Navia was pregnant did inherently make him want to look after her first and foremost. She made it even tougher for him as she lamented over not being able to sleep because he would not share his pillow. The amusement she was having to stifle kept Théadan from wilting before her little act. She even used the fact he had not long ago told Osa he would take care of her, but before he could reply, Navia was taking a step closer then moved forward with a quickness that showed how she had so often managed to steal things from him, only this time she used it to gather up the pillows strewn about him.<br/><br/>Théadan remained frozen in place for a moment, while Navia gathered up all the pillows leaving him to turn in a circle to watch her do so, before she was running back to the bed, leaping on top before kneeling on the mattress, a victorious grin on her lips all the while. She claimed the bed for her own, all of it, and in the most childish manner he had ever heard from her that had him openly laughing while she declared he could sleep on the chaise, or explain why she was better than all other duchesses. It seemed a fair trade for the right to sleep in a bed with her, but he couldn't fold too quickly or she would simply walk all over him, and then he would be subject to her every whim and desire. First he had to provoke a little bit before telling her what she wanted to hear.<br/><br/>"You sure don't look exhausted, standing up there claiming such a<i>big</i>bed all to your<i>little</i>self." He had a little fun emphasizing the size difference, a grin forming on his features as he thought about how things would be for her months down the line. "You're not yet so pregnant as to need all the space on that bed." He took a few steps forward however, crossing the room, pillow in arms as he gazed thoughtfully at his lover. "I did say I would take care of you, yet you refused my offer to massage you and ease any aching muscles you have." He reminded her. "I can only do my best to look after you if you let me look after you." It felt a bit of a stretch though, he was the one still keeping a good cushion from her, and had been the one to start their game, but he was prepared to use any excuse to teach her back.<br/><br/>He brought a finger to his lips to tap against them in thought, studying Navia for a moment. "I could list all the reasons why you're better than all those other duchesses - it certainly wouldn't be difficult." He offered truthfully. Théadan was tempted to merely leap on the bed with her and seize it from her using his greater strength, even Osa had told him he would know when to dial back his passions for her, which in Théadan's mind meant they could continue to be a little rough in some of the games they played. "But first I'd like to know, just how you would stop me from simply taking the bed from you anyway?" He raised an eyebrow at her in challenge, reaching out a hand to invade the territory she had taken for herself, smoothing over the blankets covering the bed, stopping near her thigh while the other; still holding the blanket, came to rest next to her other thigh as he brought himself level with her. "If I laid down on it now, would you be able to get me off it?"
