"Yeah, and you wouldn't be aware of the impending doom of the world," James responded with a dry laugh, "In all honesty I'm glad I met you too."

"Impending doom, that's a nice way of putting it. But maybe as long as they don't hang around each other it won't be as bad." Sariel said, the last of what he said quieter than when he had started talking, as Bamboo slid under the couch with a twig in his mouth.

"Maybe, but from what I've read they're drawn to each other," James sighed running a hand through his hair, "Whether it's curiosity, or some other force they want to find more out about the others."

Nah, it's fine, say whatever.))

Sariel slouched in his chair, "The only bad thing about finding this out is the worrying part." He said, glancing down at the legs of the couch, but quickly looking back up after seeing that the cat had disappeared under the furniture.

"Yeah," James nodded in agreement as he leaned back in the chair, "Maybe we should go out and try to find them? Ya know talk to them about all of this."

"Yeah, I mean, we could try. Do you think they'd look any specific way? They probably all look completely different this time than they did in all of those paintings and drawings." He said, looking down at the book with the painting while stifling a yawn.

"Well, we know what they look like as animals," James said in a bit of hopeful voice, "Otherwise I have no idea. We'll just have to look for them."

"At least one of them has to know how to do that. Plus an owl and a bear are a bit hard to hide, the problem will be the cat and mouse." Sariel said, sitting up once more. As opposed to light coming through the windows like during the day, it had since become dark outside. Reaching over to the doorway, Sariel flipped on the overhead lights.

James looked out the window to the darkened world. He let out a little sigh as he stood up, "Those two are definitely the problems. Anyways I should get going, you can keep the books for now."

"Oh, thanks…I'll see you later then," Sariel said, closing the books and stacking the four or five of them on a cushion on the couch. I've got a high shelf I can put these on. He thought. There isn't possibly a way that an aloe plant could mess them up anyway.

James gave him a slight grin and wave before walking out into the night back towards his home. He let out a sigh and looked around his surroundings, everything felt strange at night to him. It was calm and peaceful, yet there was a constant tension in the air. He never really like the night all that much anyways.

Once James had left, Sariel picked up the books and took them into his room to put on a shelf that was hung above his bed. Bamboo had finally come out from under the couch, leaving Sariel to feel around for the things he had hidden under the furniture.
"Couldn't you at least have put it somewhere easy to get to? It's not like it's super easy for you to get under here either." Sariel mumbled, grabbing a handful of leaves as well as the twig Bamboo had taken.
