Cassian pauses for a second, then just lets out the quickest burst of a laugh, barely two seconds long. "It was probably a good reminder, about everything." Sofia was bound to come up, all of it was, and maybe it's better to some of it out now. They both hate talking about feelings, but they'll need to. For Sofia's sake, at the very least. She is very in tune with her father's moods.

"I would not have wanted sleeping with you to be a one off thing anyway." He doesn't mean just having sex to scratch their sexual tension itch. He wants... more than that, with her. Somehow. "You can still stay over, if you'd like. Have another existential crisis in the morning." Even without the sex. He doesn't want to ask now, but he wouldn't say no to curling up in bed with her, regardless of how their talking about the future goes.
