[ extremely unfortunately for muffin, he thinks, he cares quite a bit. ]
I thought that... it would be easier, ultimately. For the pasture at large. But the only one whose convenience it actually served was my own. Because... you...
[ there's no music this time but in my HEART what's playing is THIS, thanks. After Muffin's gotten comfortable, though... when Angie thinks he may have already fallen asleep...
he does... hum, soft and meandering, not quite a structured tune. More like a dream of one, that wanders off whatever direction suits the whim, at the time. ]
[muffin's purring turns warmer, steadier, and he slips easily into a doze. comfy and comfier still...
not long after the humming starts, he sighs and relaxes even further. he won't nap for too long (a catnap—), but for a sweet while he's as deeply asleep as if he were in his own nest]
Angel Devil allows himself to think of nothing, but learning more about the personal rhythm of his breath, the sound of Muffin's resting voice, and his purrs.
Perceiving people he cares about while they're vulnerable often puts an indescribable twist in his stomach, expecting only the moment that peace ends, whether he relishes that fact or not. But right now
he merely drinks of it, as it is. Some stolen island of peace, amid the sounds of the nearby forest and lake. ]
[watching as closely as he is, he can learn the little signs of muffin waking up too. the uptick in his breathing, how his purring rumbles louder as he becomes freshly aware of comfort, and the way he streeeeetches, sighs, and snuggles his face back against angie's side.
[ it's not like he's the only one that knows that... but if it's REALLY cutting close, it's not like he's out of range of cubecalls right now, either... ]

I need to. "Perhaps." Try caring in a way that actually demonstrates it.

Ah... I've really made you have to chase a lot, already...

Do you... when.
Do you want to be escorted back to Daffodil, after this?

I want to take a nap before you take me home. —you can stay awake if you want.
