[It's not likely he'll need it — even if he does get tired, Gabe's pretty good at powering through and he's not about to leave them unguarded — but he acknowledges the couch with a nod.]
Get some rest, Jack.
[He turns to leave the room, deciding he'll wait for Jack to fall asleep before he starts pouring over all that research of his. And it's not any burning questions about what he looks like that has him looking for the bathroom, but hey, if he happens to find it and it has a mirror then it's only prudent he take a look.]
[And he's definitely not using this as a way to distract himself from any deeper questions, like what Talon did to him means or how to handle being around Jack like this now.]
[Anyway his reflection is kind of underwhelming. Gabriel flicks the light on and spends a while staring, looking at different angles, expecting something to change. It's not even the worst he's ever looked. The ashen tone isn't great, he's not a fan of the way it makes him look a little like soneone who died out in the cold, but he was expecting something a little more... Monstrous. Red eyes, maybe. Fangs. An upsettingly long tongue.]

[How disappointing.]
