"Mmrph..."
John slowly got to his feet, shaking his body a bit in an attempt to get off the last drops of water.
"Alright..."
The pup turned, walking back the way they came.
Cypher smirked slightly. At least he was getting on their good side... Smirk disappearing, he followed after the two.

John led the way back to their clearing, looking around for an entrance to a cave.
Along the way Cypher had been gathering small rocks and twigs, stuffing them in various pockets on his coat.

"Over there!" Jane pointed to a small opening in the rock wall with her wing. Leading the way, the female cautiously stepped inside. The cavern nature had carved into the crevice was larger than it appeared from the outside. Before them lie a wide opening littered with stalagmites. A high vault ceiling capped it's expanse, giving them shelter from the rough weather that might lurk outside. "This should do," the female proclaimed.

John followed the female inside, looking around the large cavern.
"...this'll do nicely..."
Cypher followed them both inside, looking around for a moment before heading to the center of the cavern to dump the rocks and twigs.

Jane sauntered to the center of the cave, watching Cypher at his work once more. This knowledge of fire making might prove useful later. "...Perhaps it might be better to stay here rather than in the open meadow from now on," she suggested, casting a glance back at John.

John followed the female to the center of the cave, plopping down near the ring of rocks Cypher was constructing.
"Sounds good to me..."

"It will protect us from our enemies....and there's plenty of room for the others who choose to join us," the female declared. "And perhaps we could bring in some grass and leaves for bedding," she added thoughtlfully.

John curled up by the small fire Cypher had going, the pup's small wings tucking around his body.
Fire started, Cypher stepped back to admire his own work.

Glancing at the males, Jane mutterd to herself something about talking to walls. Turning, she left the cave and went to collect the leaves on her own. "I'll be back," she called over her shoulder as she disappeared into the bright sunlight.

"Okay..."
John muttered a reply, remaining curled up.
Casting a quick glance at John, Cypher followed the female outside to lend a paw.

Jane glanced at Cypher wordlessly before trotting off to find the brush she sought. As she passed into some nearby woods, she found what she was seeking. A small fern should provide enough bedding for the three of them. Stepping over to it, she gently tugged a multitude of brances from its core.

Cypher followed the female into the nearby woods, looking around for danger as they went. The male walked over to the small fern, helping Jane in her quest for bedding.

If he really did want to help, there was no harm in using him right? As she pulled the strands free, Jane began tossing them onto Cypher's back. Once finished with the fern, Jane made her way over to a broad leafed plant and collected three to use as covers for the colder nights. That done, she turned to Cypher, ready for the return trip. "Anything else you think we'll need?"

Cypher glared for a moment as he was used as a common pack mule, but quickly got over it. He didn't want to piss Jane off now...
"...just some extra twigs and things for the fire...we can make a storage of it."
