John shook his head, smirking faintly. He's tired, and handling Harry does nothing good for his frayed nerves, so the wizard fixating on this of all things is a relief.
He settled onto the other side of the blanket, half-turned to Harry, his legs folding up into a loose lotus position. Once he's down, he snaps open the other blanket with a flick of his wrists and floats it down onto Harry's legs without a comment about it. His own shoulder twinges at the cold, and he can only assume Harry's leg is not much better.
"You said it," John points out mildly. "You seem unduly excited about the idea. If I'd known, I'd have packed a basket." As it is, his supplies don't stretch that far. There's a few granola bars in his pack, which he tosses to Harry as a paltry replacement for a picnic meal.
"You've been cooped up for over a week and I've spent every day the same or in the city. Sometimes, away time is needed. Even I took vacations from Chicago." Specially planned vacations set at the perfect times to help John rejuvenate and maximize productivity, but that still counted.
John looks around, like he's half-expected their little outing to be interrupted by hostile forces. But after a moment of playing look-out, his eyes slide closed. With his palms flat against his knees, he might seem to be meditating. That sounds better than falling asleep, at least.
