Welcome to Gaia! ::

Avery felt a little relieved that Timothy offered to stay. He really, really didn't want to be alone... if Timothy had left, Avery probably would have tried to sleepover in someone else's duplex instead. "Yeah, I'd like for you to stay," he smiled at the other boy. "Thanks... I could use the company..."

He flopped down on the bed, laying down on his stomach. "It's an odd coincidence that Awen gave me a plushie of the animal I'm turning into," he murmured as he stared at the dog plush on his pillows. "Oh well, at least it helped you figure out what I'm turning into..."

"Puppy! I'm not turning into no puppy - I'm gonna be a dog; a studly one, too. None of that cute stuff for me," he chuckled. "Like - a German Shepherd or something. You know, a manly dog."

Avery shoved the plush dog out of the way and scooted closer to Timothy, sliding his arms around the other boy and snuggling up. "At least fur is nice to snuggle with," he sighed contentedly, letting his one of his hands wander to touch the soft fur on Timothy's tail. "And soft." Cuddling always cheered Avery up.

Luckily for Timothy, Avery was still too worn out from his transformation to notice he was trying to hide anything from him. He tried to keep his eyes open for a bit, trying to think of something else to talk about... but eventually he couldn't stay awake anymore, eyes falling shut as he gave in to sleep.

Avery had been sleeping very well for the first time since he arrived here. He missed being able to just snuggle up to someone and fall asleep in their arms. He shifted when Timothy got out of bed, hugging his pillows instead, wanting the contact. He was sleeping peacefully until Timothy started to play on his guitar and sing.

Avery slowly opened his eyes, smiling when he saw the other boy singing. He waited for him to finish before speaking up. "G'morning," he mumbled sleepily. "Or... afternoon... whatever time it is."

"That's true, I guess it doesn't matter much - I'd rather not sleep away the whole day, though. It feels like such a waste!" Avery smiled at him. He put his arms around Timothy again when he crawled back into bed. He wouldn't mind just doing this all day, though. "Hmm... well, I'm kind of hungry. Want to go get something to eat? Oh! Maybe you can show me that place on the cliffs you were telling me about before?"

"Okay! Lets go grab something to eat real quick then, and then we can go see that place." Avery climbed over Timothy to get out of bed, and got out a change of shirt. He decided to keep his pyjama pants on because of his tail, until he was able to get some scissors to adjust his other pair of pants.

After he changed his shirt, he grabbed Timothy's hand and led him off to the cafeteria to eat. Avery helped himself to the food, waiting for Timothy to get some food too before he sat down with him. "So, is this place on the cliffs far? I think you told me before, I can't remember what you said..."

Avery chuckled. "I don't either! Besides," he said, pausing to look at Timothy, "I don't mind spending the whole day with you." He made short work of his meal, and once Timothy was done too, Avery stood up. "Well, are you ready to go? I'll follow you there," he said.
