I ended up conjuring up some backstory that the guardian is really good at telling if someone is awake or asleep (as learned during a war where he specialized in taking out slacking sentries) so he just sort of asked why she was still awake without any real catalyst
This is what my lack of knowledge on sleeping bags reduced me to. And, woo, 1200 words in three hours, I'm trucking along now
