[Even with Pyro bringing him into an awkward topic against his will (as usual), Sniper had thought she might cry herself out and go to sleep, and that he wouldn't have to bother even trying the delicate art of comforting her- he wasn't any good at it, anyway. When one spent nearly all of his time living in solitude and caring only for himself, he forgot how to deal with others, especially in situations that required a certain degree of tact. Having little experience dealing with women in general wasn't helping matters.
Given that and his own tiredness, he'd thought briefly he might be able to doze off again, even with her pressing herself against his back, the heat of her body making him almost uncomfortably warm. He closed his eyes as he shifted, trying to move his knee to where she wasn't bumping into it. It was as he did that she nipped him on the ear, giving him a very sudden wake-up call.
He pulled away from her, turning around, gritting his teeth against the pain that shot through his elbow as he pressed on his arm.]

What was that for?
