Summary
When he goes to sleep the second Friday after their fight—ugly and snarling, the two of them; always too good at both devotion and destruction—he sets an alarm. He slips into his dreams like a thief, and once he is there, he seizes and twists the gossamer threads that make the Dreaming, the way he knows but never uses.
Never before tonight. Tonight, he does, until the scenery of Hob’s living room and Dream’s head in his lap shudders and crumbles, leaving only the throne room behind.

Summary
It’s not that Gaius doesn’t know how to brew a proper sleeping tonic, or that knights aren’t known to ask for them, every once in a while. It’s just that Gwaine has more or less exceeded the number of times one can ask before Gaius—and then Merlin and, inevitably, Arthur—starts looking at him as if he is going to break.
