He caressed her own braid as she leaned down. But shook his head when she asked if he wanted her to remain with him. "Sleep. Its been a long couple of days for you." he said.
Eventually he did rejoin her in bed to try and see if sleep would come to him at all. Not even a wink, and soon his crew were calling him away to his duties and he left her alone.
He was away from his chambers for most of the day, busy conversing with those also suffering insomnia as well as working on the list of wants they intended to put forward to Atlantis for the hive. They eventually found that the list was far too long and even if they did get even half of them approved, the power requirements calculated were too large to be handled.
So they reduced the list down to a select key upgrades that the hive could handle with its current power, and then a second slightly longer list of upgrades that could be accomplished if Naquadah generators were installed. ZPMs were out of the question unless they managed to acquire them themselves, and even then, they'd become a target for Atlantis to keep an ever-watchful eye on. But the generators would be enough to handle the upgrades while ensuring that the hive could not reach the Milky Way Galaxy within a Wraith's lifetime.
Cody was not part of the discussions and Todd had sent him to his chambers to see if Rogue was in need of anything as it was likely he'd not see her until dinner.
