"Let's go check it out!" Osiris poked his nose indoors. He moved through the foyer room into the living room, carrying Dev throughout. There are a few doors leading to other rooms from the living room. He didn't want to crash on a couch. Osiris snooped his way into a room across from the living room. It wasn't the same room Lis and Bane had crashed in before nights ago. This one was different, in fact, this room was plain. Osiris crinkled his nose at the pale walls and minimalistic design. He laid Dev down on the bed with its pure white sheets. He then crawled onto it himself and poofed into his wolf form. Osiris rolled onto his back. He wasn't going to sleep until Dev did.
Devon looked around, sitting up he took off his shoes and set them aside. He laid back down, putting his hands in his hoodie pockets he closed his eyes. He laid there for a moment before turning on his side and scooting closer to Osiris.
Osiris scooted himself closer. He curled up in the negative space between Dev's chest and stomach. He closed his eyes, nuzzling Dev's hand for a pat. Osiris through that being in his dog form would make things less awkward. After all, they hadn't known each other that long. His ears were pinned in a relaxed manner and he sunk into the comfy mattress.
Devon wrapped his arms around Osiris, running his hands through his fur, falling asleep shortly, the physical contact making it easier for him to relax.
Osiris let out little whimpers. He was having his little doggie nightmares. His body was shaking and his back leg was kicking. Osiris pressed his back to Dev and all motion stopped. He woke up in a dazed state. He put a hand to his head and realized he shifted out of his wolf form in his sleep. He liked Dev’s arms wrapped around him. He trucked his head slightly into his chest.
Devon, being a light sleeper, woke up when Osiris did, he didn't show it, he just kept his eyes closed, and laid there. He smiled as Osiris pressed against him, it made him happy, he fell asleep again.
“I guess i’m not getting any sleep. I thought I wound be able to.” Osiris whispered. He turned over to face Dev and started poking at the boys face. He held Dev’s jaw and brought his face to his, pressing his forehead to Dev’s. “I hope you can get better sleep than I did.” Osiris wrapped his arms around Dev’s chest to emulate a hug. “Sweet dreams buttercup.”
Devon woke up when Osiris whispered, and his face heated with a blush at the nickname. He tried to keep from showing it, but he wasn't good at it.
Bane looked at the thing. “What’s technology, and why do you seem to like it so much.” His eyes light up. “Ooo, please! I’d like to know. Please teach me all the things I never learned. This is another reason why I love you!” He threw his arms around Lis and hugged her. He gave her a kiss of appreciation. When he pulled away, he looked at her. “You are very silly, Lis. Make it our mission to track them down. I want some peace. Look, Naize was almost catnapped…SHE WAS WHAT.” He turned around and threw a dagger into an assassin’s chest. “Lis— we need to eradicate these people now.” He watched as Lis did her creation thing. Bane got excited when he put the necklace around him. “I never knew you could do that! Now I have two necklaces! That’s awesome! Just don’t expend yourself too much. There is a right time and place for…lovey you.” He chose his words carefully. He smiled at Lis being happy that he was generally looking at her. “Yes, tracing my lips makes me giggle. Kissing me makes me red.” He grinned. He looked over at Luna and tilted his head. He didn’t know her well. He turned away and looked at the sky. “It’s getting late. Maybe we should go inside and sleep. Or tonight might be the perfect time to ambush our enemies.”
"Well, it lets me do stuff like this. . ." she laughs, pointing the camera at Bane and snapping a picture. She shows it to him.
"I will! It'll take a bit, but I will." she smiles, hugging him back and feeling her face heat up when he kisses her.
"I am not silly! And I shall. . . it will be my mission." she murmurs.
"I know." she replies.
"I can, but I did it only for ammo and knives and other such things. And I won't. It isn't that exhausting." she laughs.
"So if I do a bit of both at the same time. . .?" she grins.
"Yeah. . . probably." she says, lifting Bane into her arms, taking a moment to watch the others, and Naize, before dragging Bane into their room.
Luna smiles and catches the cat, stroking her head.
Naize purred, licking at lunas neck
Luna giggles.
"Oi, what are you doing?"
Naize giggled, shifting back halfway
Luna shifts Naize so her weight's more evenly balanced.
"C'mon, let's go." she murmurs, even though her form isn't glowing anymore. She shifts, and her panther form looks normal black, not silver. She runs away.
Naize shifted and followed
Luna races into the forest, letting Naize get close, then bounding away, sometimes as a shadow, sometimes as human, sometimes as cat. Occasssionally, all three. Eventually, she lays down, panting.
Naize pounced playfully, hitting at the woman's neck just as playful
Osiris giggled. “I can see you’re awake. Your face is as red as a tomato!” He hushed Dev, urging him to go back to sleep. “Slip back into the land of sweet dreams. You need it. You said so.” He shifted his weight, sitting up. He reached up at the ceiling. It had a string dangling from it, and he messed with it. Osiris stopped his curious pawing. “A trap door that smells of death, huh? That’s odd..”

Bane blinked when Lis took a picture, the flash hurting his eyes. Bright lights tended to hurt his eyes. He shook his head, looking at the picture on the phone. His brow furrowed and he looked worried. “You trapped my soul in the rectangle :(.” Despite his worries, his eyes lit back up when Lis said she was going to teach him. “That’s alright if it takes a little. I want to know what you know. You know a lot, and I’m not up to pace.” Bane brushed his thumb across her cheek to feel the heat rising from her face. “It’s my mission too. I’m not letting you go in alone. That’s suicidal.” He growled at her as a warning. He looked away and threw a knife at a tree. He looked back at her. “Well Lis, we’re going to need a lot of knives. We’re running out.” Bane stared into her eyes for a good minute. “Everything has its price. I don’t want you expending yourself, exhausting or not.” He glared at her. Another warning.
Bane’s giggly mood came back as she continued to touch his face. “I don’t recommend doing it at the same time. I might explode or turn into the actual sun.” He put his forehead to hers. “But you could always try. Who knows.” He shrugged. “Sometimes you have to be adventurous.” When Lis picked him up, he started thrashing around, yapping about how he can walk. Although, as soon as he into bed, he sunk into it and stared at the ceiling, processing the day.
"Nah, it's a picture. It's an exact replica of your face, on the phone. No magic, just tech." Lis laughs.
"I don't actually know as much as you think I do." she grins.
"Yeah, and if it's suicide, I've lived a long life. If you want to come with me, you can, but I'll tie you to a 1,000 year oak tree." she smirks.
"I know. The only price is a much shorter life." she whispers, too softly for even Bane to hear.
"That would be fun." she giggles.
She places one finger against his lips, then sets him down, laying down on top of him.
Luna yelps, then melts into the ground, reappearing a few feet away.
Devon sat up, "I slept…I don't need much sleep…" he shrugged, stretching. He looked up at the string, "you should probably leave that be Osie, who knows whats in there…"
Osiris tilted his head. "You didn't get much sleep…because of me. I kept moving and talking and waking you up…I disrupted your sleep. I'm sorry, I won't do it again." He rubbed his arm and held his head close to his shoulder. "Just lay down again…I'll stop playing with the string. Whatever is in that top compartment smells like death anyway. Maybe it's just a bunch of decomposing corpses."
–
Bane tilted his head. “Strange…” He then made a face at her. “If it's a suicide mission, then you're not allowed to pursue it! You hear me, Lis.” A growl came from the back of his throat. “Me coming with you is the only way I can assure you're safe! Tie me to an old oak tree, and you'll no longer have an oak tree in that location!” He played with her hair. “You're not allowed to die until I say, alright? Not until I say. You say we have forever, and now I don't believe you.” His face flushed at her comment, and it got redder when she laid down on top of him. “Lis—I’m not a bed. I am a person.” A little giggle came from the back of his throat.
Naize trotted after, laying down beside the woman
Lis laughs. "Yeah, it is. But that's not the point. What the point is I can take pictures of every single time your face turns red!"
"Yeah, fine. . ." she murmurs. "And besides, uprooting the tree is very illegal."
"Fine." she huffs.
"Oh, hush. You're comfortable, and warm. And I honestly don't want to move." she giggles.
Luna lifts her head, then lays it down on the smaller cat.
Naize purred softly, closing her eyes
Bane became flustered, his words coming out in stutters. "Y—you—I— you can't do that! I won't let you do that? Why would anyone want to do that anyway? Huh? Is it because it shows I'm vulnerable, or is it because I look cute?" He smirked. He was thinking about doing things up to no good. "I need to collect photos of when you're flushed. You don't get red, and it shows me something don't get to see often! Like this." He kissed her. While he did that, he stole her phone and pulled away. Looking at Lis' cherry-red face, he managed to snap a photo. "Cute as always." He kissed her on the nose, trying to provoke her more. Bane shrugged. "Don't 'yeah fine' me, I'm looking out for your safety. Plus I like doing illegal stuff. Provokes the government." His face is still burning bright. "I—I am not comfortable! This is very uncomfortable for me." He said falling asleep while wishing she wouldn't move. "Uh—good… I mean, not good. You're crushing my lungs."
"Yes I can!" Lis grins, snapping a picture of Bane before he takes the phone, tackling him when he does, still bright red from the kiss.
"Hmph." she huffs.
"Well I am! And I will not move!" she growls playfully.
"And I'm not that heavy!" she laughs.
Luna starts purring as well, falling asleep where se is.
Bane managed to keep the phone from her and looked at the photos. “Well, looks like I've had a secret admirer for a while now.” He giggled. “Took you a while to admit your feelings.” He snapped another picture of one Lis flushed to the nth degree. “Took you a while to kiss me too. And a new rule— no tackling me. I'm like an anchored rock.” Bane gave Lis her phone back and put his arms around her back. “Fine. You can stay. You're like a dog with its favorite nesting place. My second rule is: If you lay on me, you have to sleep. Unless it's cuddles.” He rolled his eyes at Lis’ objection to her not being that heavy. It was cute how she was like a guard dog around him.
Lis yelps and yanks the phone back, fire red at this point. "You hush! No more phone for you!"
She grins. "Wanna bet?"
She pushes him against the ground, straddling him. "You were saying. . .?"
"Eh, I'll lay wherever I want. Especially if it's on you." she smirks.
Luna yips in her sleep.
Naize licked her gently an purred louder
Luna barely stirs, just continues doing what she was doing. Eventually she starts purring.
