[ thank you for this gift, i am so delighted by the sleep but also devastated by your meta so actually i take my thanks back
It's a good thing Eustace is conking the fuck out then before he can say anything. Good for both of them, because it means Toge doesn't have to deny the distressed upset that clearly clings to him like a heavy blanket, and it means Eustace doesn't have to do worse to this kind boy who has only ever shown him sympathy and mercy.
The desperate plea works quick, a sudden wave of lethargy washing over him as his eyelids fight (and fail) to stay open. The unceasing motions of his body to fight his invisible bindings slow and then stop, and then his body's slumping to one side, the rise and and fall of his chest much steadier and slower in rhythm than before.
Maybe there won't be pleasant dreams now, but at least no one will be hurt further. Better peace in reality than peace in his dreams. ]
