She looks so nice. . . he's incredibly lucky to be able to see her like this and has such a (cute) charm as she currently was. With a small smile he could do nothing else but gently but firmly hold her close as she rested and closed his eyes as well.
The serpents tail slowly ended up in her arms. Like in the manner a child would cuddle a stuffed toy. With love and care. His trainers body grew heavy and her eyes began to shut. The only thing she could think to do is bury her face in the fan of his tail end.
Comfy.
He stared at her in silence for a moment before closing his eyes and releasing his breath. Clearly he wasn't going to convince her from her position.
". . .If you're absolutely certain."
β Me doing my laundry with yours saves me time, detergent and money. Itβs not making more work for me. You getting a pair or two of clothes isnβt going to cause me any issues. β
@AbyssalArbiter Even if she says it he's not really use to such a reputation, it's a complete 180 from when he was younger after all. But he does appreciate her words.
Wrapping the middle of his tail around her forearm.
Her, rotten? She should perish the thought. She is a dazzling flower who keeps to herself and he would like to get her out the house more often, perhaps walk around the garden a few times a week so she can stretch her legs. Being cooped up can't be good for her.
Oh silly snake. In a way she is royalty, but itβs something she doesnβt like delving into. Still, this is very comfortable. She couldnβt even imagine how much more spoiled he could make her feel. She already feels rotten.
@AbyssalArbiter He's always genuine, he didn't think he gave her cause to think otherwise. Still there are rumors he's heard from humans before... though usually children.
"I understand that, but at the same time I would prefer if you did not overwork yourself even if it's in the name of taking care of us... and of course I'm not use to this level of treatment so I feel like I have to do something or I'm taking advantage."
@AbyssalArbiter Then he will do so... just that if he would need a moment to find the locations of said malls.
On a plus side if there's any malls built over previous graveyards her gift will come in handy.
"Ah, wait. You don't have to do that. I can do mine separately since you're taking care of the others."
Side eyeing the door as he does think some could put in a little effort themselves.
She shook her head at his assumption. Her lips pursing at the fact that was what he took from that.
β Itβs more about me being able to wash your clothes when they get dirty. Your suit is plenty comfortable. β
He was use to his suit being practically a second skin to him and barring special occasions rarely wore anything but it. Of course he had copies in case of any tearing or the job.
"Ah.. my apologies. I had no idea my normal attire wasn't good for prolonged contact. Thank you."
β Yes, Milo. I want you to be able to be comfortable at home. Youβre always in that suit, so Iβd like you to have something cozy to relax in when we cuddle. β
She got up, pulling out her phone to try to find a pair on his size on a delivery app.
Milo immediately scanned their surroundings for any bad company, something he was used to while working and couldn't simply turn off. Wiping the seat with a handkerchief before sitting down.
"You're awfully chipper, and just what is whiskey...?"
Hestia pushed open the doors to the restaurant and made a beeline straight for the bar, sitting down on oen of the stood and patting the one next to her.
β Hi hi! Two whiskeys please! β
She spoke to the bartender, giving a wide smile.
@AbyssalArbiter Well aren't some of them weighted, supposedly helps some to get to sleep he's heard but she's small so in that case it would be too much for her.
He'll double check them just in case.
work while she slept and interrupt her sleep due to dream stress.
Then he finally closed his eyes and relaxed, not fully falling asleep and rest his eyes.
He doesn't fall asleep immediately, instead watching her back and waiting for her to relax into slumber completely.
His tendrils slowly extend and touch her head before closing his eyes emanating a calm pulse through her body. It was to deter her mind from thinking back to her +
Sheβs burying her face in his scales. Enjoying the cool texture as he curls up behind. Sheβs making little noises of fatigue.
Aching muscles relax in his hold. Slowly but surely shutting her eyes and drifting into silent slumber.
He rested a hand on his chin for a moment to ponder the idea.
"I see... well, from the other companions I'm aware of I guess I would be the simplest to meet. I assume you have questions then? In that case, what would you like to know?"
β "there is something i do have an objective on.
since i'm fairly new to alice's team, i should get myself to know her other pokemon. and i first thought of you. "
It would take more than that to 'ruin' something for him. He's not the Fire-type here to be easily heated...
The serpent is somewhat surprised on how strong she can actually get when she wants to do something though.
Pfft. She's only had a couple drinks. Nowhere near her limit! She'll drop it though. No point in ruining what she can only assume is a good mood for him!
The boar squeals happily and practically drags him out of the building and toward a bar.
He's still testing it out with arm movements as he listens to her and inclines his head slightly.
"Sweatpants...? Those rather baggy form of pants people usually wear and claim are comfortable?"
Good, itβs nice and snug. She didnβt have to worry about any inconveniences and he could be cozy at home.
β Good. Iβll buy you some sweatpants tomorrow. If they donβt have it Iβll attempt to make them. Iβd make something more elaborate, but I donβt have the equipment. β
