listentomymuse | Overlord and the pup

What about you?

[He tilts his head, looking over.

Moroha helps where she can. Though she does gather the kids around, starting to tell a story of some of her adventures when she was a young pup that got seperated from her parents and had to deal with wolves and other cool stuff. just something to keep them entertained until the inn finds somewhere better for them]

I need to talk the old hag.

[He sighs. Nodding to him, he walks off to find Hanako.

The kids all look up at her with wide eyes. They do ask questions here or there, but seem to settle down around her.]

[Seth gives a lazy wave.

Moroha continues on with her story, being dramatic and energetic at parts for effect. She use to entertain some of the town's kids before so she's use to this.]

--Then I was home for awhile doing shrine things but I pushed by the town's higher ups to be a sacrifice for a scary all powerful mega big time demon lord that ruled over us. Many maidens were sent to him and none were ever seen again...word was that he could turn anything and everything into sand and that he liked to eat young maidens....

[dun dun dunnnnn and she continues on]

[It’s a bit after when Moroha’s done telling her story that Leona finally speaks up from his place. Leaning against the doorframe.]

Didn’t know you were such a compelling storyteller, pup.

[Moroha blinks! She turns around to him...he heard all that? really?]

Y-Yeah? Well...I hung out with the kids in town alot and you pick up on things...ya know?

[Smile???]

Everything good?

Is that so.

[He hums.]

Yeah. Mind if I steal you for a moment? Need to talk to you.

[She blinks a bit but gives a nod]

Uh, sure?

[She gets up. He seems...unhappy. She figures maybe hes tired from last night after everything.]

Here fine or you wanna go else where?

Somewhere else.

[He waits for her briefly before leading her away from the room.]

[Moroha tilts her head to the side a bit and but follows after him casually. She's curious...?]

We’ve found a place for the children.

[Leona speaks up once they’re in a different room. He leans against the wall, looking tired.]

Just a town over. It’s one of the safer places for them as it’ll be protected by the Sky Demons. We’ll be smuggling them out of the fishing village to get them there.

[Moroha blinks and gives a slow nod]

That’s great news there’s somewhere safe for them. I’m glad. We’ll get them there tonight then?

[She perks and smiles]

That’s the plan.

[He exhales slowly.]

So for now, just rest and conserve your energy. Don’t push yourself more than you’d have to. Depending how tonight goes, you’ll be defense if something goes awry.

[She nods!]

Leave it to me. I’ll keep everyone safe.

[She grins more. She gets some action!]

You should rest up too then.

Yeah, yeah.

[There’s a brief pause before he reaches out, hand cupping her cheek.

He looks thoughtful for a moment.]

…you should shower. I can smell the sea on you.

[Moroha blinks at the gentle gesture. She looks up at him, a little surprised]

……is that your nice way of saying I stink?

[She doesn’t seem offended though.]

I know it was all apart of the plan…but thanks for saving me and the kids.

I wouldn’t have let anything happen to you.

[A slight frown before he pulls his hand back.]

Stay within the inn for now and don’t let yourself be seen. With how things have gone, it’s going to attract attention.

[She stares up at him, cheeks warming up again and her heart beat picking up. ]

Y-yeah. I wasn’t planning on it.

[She nods to him. She lingers a bit longer before excusing herself to go wash up. Moroha passes by him]

Make sure you get some rest too…

[With that she to the bathroom]

…

[He watches her leave before sighing softly.

This…may be an issue.

Leona shakes his head and walks off to a different room.]

[after they rest and wait for the cover of night to smuggle the kids out, things seem to go rather smoothly. Moroha is on high alert but no one really seems to catch them bring the children to the sky demons.

Seth is grateful. He’s still tired cat]

[Fortunately, it’s a quick and smooth mission and the sky demons do offer them a place to stay for the night. The other demons are bringing the children in, helping them find rooms to settle in for the night.

Leona sighs and looks at his companions.]

Want to stay here for the night? We’ll leave at dawn.

That sound amazing…it’s a ways back to the inn or the palace…

[Seth yawns. Moroha nods too]

Roof over my head and a cozy bed, I got no problems.

[She smiles, giving a thumbs up]

Then let’s get some sleep.

[He yawns.]

I’m beat.

[Moroha nods, stretching her arms over her head]

Same here. We did a lot the last two days.

[She smiles to him and Seth. Though she feels something a bit strange that as he blinking and looking around a bit before waving goodnight and going to the room given to her. Lily follows after]

can we share a bed Leon? Not to do anything but to sleep. I think it’d be nice.

[He yawns]

[Leona blinks slowly, watching her. It has his brows furrowing and he nudges Mythril to watch them, too. Hmm…

He looks at Seth.]

That’s fine. I’m not against it.

[The fairy grumbles from Leona’s shoulder but flies after them.

Seth’s ears perk and he gives a lazy grin. It won’t be much of a cat cuddle pile but better than nothing. He nods and heads to Leona’s room]
