[...Wow, Seth.

Leona scoffs softly.]

I'll handle the pup then if she stays too long in the shower. Just go wake her up.

[bloodthirstydawn]

[Seth perks and nods! Leona is nice to him. But he goes ahead and leaves to wake up Moroha. Mythril snorts softly as he finishes his orange slice. The lion can be a bit soft to certain pride members more than others]

[sunsetking]

You got something to say, pipsqueak?

[Those eyes are suddenly on Mythril.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[He stiffens and quickly shakes his head]

N-no. I just thought it was nice of you to deal with that girl in Seth's place is all...

[sunsetking]

[He stares hard at him.]

You sure that's all?

[bloodthirstydawn]

Yes....

[He ducks down]

I-Its a compliment.

[sunsetking]

[A longer stare before he sighs, finally moving his gaze away to finish his coffee.



It is hours later when they finally return to the palace.

Leona waves Ruggie off when the hyena comes to greet them, wanting nothing more than to just lay down and sleep longer.

Jack raises a brow at them.]

You guys look like you've been through a lot.

[bloodthirstydawn]

It's been....a trip. I'll fill you in later.

[Seth smiles lazily at Jack]

Its just been a long trip. Longer than we thought.

[Moroha seems fine now after sleeping. She does glance at Leona's back but doesn't stop him. She waves to Jack before going off to her room to change and such too]

[sunsetking]

Seems like it.

[Jack glances between Leona and Moroha. Hmm...

Leona is just...going straight to his room. Ugh, he's tired. Though he does feel a pull before he's tugged down into the underworld.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

Leona.

[Kao smiles sweetly at him. Welcome. Oh he's so pleased to finally have him by.]

I believe you owe me a visit for a long while now.

[sunsetking]

Kao.

[A slow blink before he exhales slowly.]

You couldn't have waited another day?

[He didn't even get to greet Iris yet.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

One day turns into another day and then a week, a month and over year....with you.

[He gives him a bit of a flat look]

You only have yourself to blame for putting things off for so long.

[smile]

[sunsetking]

I was busy.

[Don't smile at him like that.

He sighs, feeling his shoulders slump.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

Dont look so miserable. You'll bring down my mood as well. Am I really such a bother? I can start visiting if you prefer that.

[He casually walks over to him]

[sunsetking]

I was hoping to be able to enjoy my bed is all.

[His ear twitches when he comes closer.]

I'd rather you don't come to the palace. You make everyone antsy.

[bloodthirstydawn]

I don't see why. I have no interest in your pride. Its also good to see our daughter. She has grown into a very beautiful flower. I knew she would.

[He stops just in front of him.

Behind him, peeking into the room are the pink-haired twins. They're not too surprised to see Leona]

[sunsetking]

I believe our terms in still in place when it comes to Iris. Unless she wishes to see you, you are not to see her first.

[Leona looks down at him.]

As for the rest of them, is it surprising considering how long they've been with you?

[bloodthirstydawn]

You are so fickle with her. She is half of me, Leona. Do you think I would really do that much harm to her?

[He tils his heads a bit.]

If you're tired from your trip, my bed is open for you to rest in.

[sunsetking]

[A flat look. Does he really need to answer that question?

He huffs softly.]

If I lay in your bed, are you going to let me up again?

[bloodthirstydawn]

You say that like I could keep you down.

[He already seems pleased. Leona is certainly the underworld demon's favorite....dangerously so.]

[sunsetking]

You'd find a way to.

[It is...something to be the fixation of the underworld demon. Leona always has to tread carefully when it comes to Kao. Who knows when his mood will suddenly change?]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[His lips curve into a slight smirk]

Perhaps you wouldn't have to worry so much if you merely came by more often and didn't avoid me so.

[A snap of his fingers and they're suddenly in his room]

Make yourself comfortable. I will let you rest undistrubed.

[Smile~]

[sunsetking]

It won't make much of a difference if I was avoiding you or not.

[But there's a sigh as he does sit down on the bed.]

[bloodthirstydawn]

[In a smooth motion, the lion is pushed from sitting to laying on his back with Kao over him, long hair spilling over his shoulder.]

It does. I feel like you're hiding from me. Do I scare even you, Leona?

[sunsetking]

[He looks up at him.]

What's there to be afraid of when it comes to you?
