"Maybe we should set up camp for now." Mala suggested, honestly tired of walking at the moment.

"Starting to get dark now anyway." Van said looking up at the steadily darkening sky.

Mala nodded. She pulled the magical pouch from out of her top - having hidden it there once more since her skimpy outfit allowed her little else. From it she got out her own sleeping bag, refusing to sleep exactly on the dirt as she normally did.

"Got any more bags in there for us?" Riley asked as the group settled down in their chosen clearing.

Angel, for the first time in weeks, took her bag off her shoulder and pulled out, in this order: a sleeping bag, a blanket (to cover her wings with), and a second little bag from which she pulled out an apple, which she nibbled at. All three siblings had bags; while her older siblings had a simple backpack, hers hung by her side and was generally unnoticed, even by Angel.

Mala pulled out about two more. "This is all I've brought - since I originally only expected just the three of us." she admitted. "Outside, they're rather coarse. On the inside, however, 100% Arachnathian Silk." she then said with a smile, wanting to show how expensive they were as a sort of hint for them not to get them torn up. Especially since Arachnathians were an extremely rare breed of spider-people these days. Mala then glanced over at Angel, noticing that she had brought her own bag. "Well, that's convenient. Looks like I won't need to buy another."

"In retrospect, I'd think having a luxury sleeping bag would defeat the purpose." Van said taking one of the bags and laying it down on the ground. "It's like....It's like having a mansion for your barn animals. Er, no offense..."

"None taken. I just didn't want one of those cheap ones that kept getting ruined every time it rained." Mala said, remembering one incident in the past where she settled for a cheaper one and ended up with a cold the next day since it rained during the night. "I didn't like that experience one bit." she said, laying her's down and removing her shoes before she slipped inside. "So warm~"

"Toasty." Van said climbing inside his own sleeping bag, which he'd laid out next to Mala. "And I think Riley would agree." he said with a chuckle as he looked over at Riley, who was all zipped up in his sleeping bag with a satisfied l3 look on his face.

Angel stared at her sleeping bag, still nibbling at her apple, then asked softly, "Does someone want to snuggle with me?" Her face was a little pink, since her heart was still beating. She let it slow and stop again, and the blush faded from her cheeks as she looked at the three. She had often had trouble sleeping even when at home, and the previous night had proved it was impossible away from home. Having someone close helped.

Mala had already flat-out conked out, since the day had been a highly eventful one. Not to mention the fact that she would have to wake up early for training.

"That's right, you're not used to being away from your brother and sister huh?" Riley said looking to Angel. He looked over to see Van had also already fallen asleep with Mala before sighing. "I guess you can, er, snuggle with me...But just for tonight and nothing too touchy feely, okay?" he said scooting his sleeping bag over to her. His brave sacrifice would no doubt ensure Angel would refrain from whimpering or anything throughout the night.

Angel smiled happily and snuggled with him, carefully spreading the blanket so her wings could rest on them, and then she expertly covered her wings as well. Angel then promptly buried her face in Riley's chest and fell asleep.
