Madison woke slowly, blinking blearily at the room around her. It wasn't... where was she? She shifted to one side and touched something warm- no, not something. Someone.
... Leon.
Right.
She sat up very quietly, looking for her bathrobe and finding it on the floor next to the bed. She'd come to him last night, looking for one kind of comfort, and ending up sating a... well, not entirely different, but slightly unexpected need. It hadn't been amazing, but it had been... good. Not her best, but definitely not her worst. She was, in general, okay with this...
... other than the aching silence in her mind.
Madison sighed, quietly, and slipped out of bed, shrugging on the bathrobe as she did so. She could see the dim shape of Kouki's tablet on the chair where she'd left it-
-No. Wait. Something was different. The runic bandages that she'd wrapped around the tablet were crumpled in a pile, no longer holding the shape of a tablet. With a surge of panic, Madison lunged for the bandages and came up not with something solid, but with a tangle of faded gauze. Something tumbled free, and she caught it reflexively. Four beads-
The sensation of four yawns blossomed in her mind, filling that space that had been so painfully empty. Is it morning already? that dear, familar voice mumbled.
"Kouki!" she yelped, all thoughts of silence forgotten. "Leon - Leon, wake up! Wake up!" She grabbed Leon's shoulder and started shaking.
Such a sexy wake-up.

Sosiqui "It hadn't been amazing, but it had been... good. Not her best, but definitely not her worst." leon's going to have to try and redeem himself now. lmao Leon never really cared for alarm clocks. The hunter could only groan when Madison began to shake him awake. "I don't have to do my running today sir." he said in exasperation before opening his eyes. thank the heavens above Madison wasn't his old instructor. least she was easier on the eyes. "What is it?" he began to stretch and limber up. flashback of bumbling in the night to grab a protection in the nightstand, the lost boxers scattered to the floor without a care. The scratchmarks on his back made themselves known with a dull pain. And below the waist he felt as light as air. "We can go for round two in the shower if that' what you're asking."Give an inch, take a mile. he had to wonder if the same saying went for the plural form for inches.

Madison's eyes widened, and her cheeks flushed pink. She was abruptly very glad that she hadn't wakened him with talking about his weapon, because she knew how Robert could have taken that, and in a few ways Leon was cut from the same mold... "I, uh, maybe?" she stammered. "But, seriously - Kouki's back!" She held out her hands, which had Kouki's unsummoned form, an unassuming bracelet made of four pink beads, cupped in them. "Where's, um, your guy?" No, she didn't remember Leon's weapon's name.

That sounded like a yes to Leon. The smirk plastered itself onto his face hastily and he found the willpower to get up from the bed. The sheets would have to be changed, but it was a small price to pay. don't care, had sex.But the chance for more perverted ideas passed as Maddie began to show off the bracelet in her palm. it wasn't something he remembered the girl showing off last night and it piqued his curiosity. "Oh he's back?' he asked. it was good news, the worries from last night about losing their weapons felt like it was lifted off his shoulders. But then came the thinking. and a joyous mood soon became sullen. "Does he know what happened?" he asked quietly. He didn't think Kouki would have wanted to greet his morning with a naked hunter in front of his charge. But that was happening, deal with it. It took a moment, but the curiosity of his own weapon got the best of him when he went to peer over at the nightstand where he left the tablet. and gave it an experimental poke. suddenly one tiny little tooth bracelt made its grand appearance and he missed the deep rumbling of one Nidhogg in his mind. But not what he asked. -What's for breakfast meathead?- "looks like Nidhogg is back too." he added excitably after a pause. "and hungry."

"Yeah - thank god," Madison replied with a sigh of relief. She slipped the bracelet over her wrist, feeling a bit of tension drain out of her. Yes, this was the way things were supposed to be - either the bracelet around her wrist, or the sword-belt around her waist, and that comforting presence in her mind. What happened?A wave of sleepy confusion was Kouki's only answer. "Hm. He... doesn't seem to know," she said, after a moment. "Yours?" She filed away the name - Nidhogg - just in case.

"Nid i'll get you some food in a bit ok." Leon gave the dragon spirit a reassuring tone and sat there, soaking it all in. The scary time of not having the weapon and the voice had passed. It felt like a complete miracle. -Fine, but it better be a big breakfast, I'm a growing dragon after all.-"Nid's too busy thinking about food to pay attention." he said with a smile. it was typical, normal. He was so glad for that. "I should probably put something on huh?"Leon was ever so classy.

Food?"Oh, great, now Kouki's 'hungry', too," Madison said with a sigh and a smile. At Leon's comment about putting something on, she looked over at him and raised one eyebrow as she realized he wasn't wearing a damn thing. "Maybe - unless you think you can perform with a bunch of whiners complaining about being hungry." She grinned, impishly. "Though, um. No... no regrets?" she added. "I mean, uh, I'm not - I don't have any. And, y'know, I'm not assuming this meant... things. No strings, right? Unless you wanted strings, or whatever, I don't know." Strings?Not the time! The last thing she needed was Kouki getting curious about this.

"Your weapon is hungry? Welcome to my world." he said snarkily with a low chuckle. If was almost as if they were two peas in a pod, similar situations with their mind buddies.Madison had her own cheeky moment that caused him to raise an eyebrow to her, the gleam in his eye that said 'try me'. "Considering that you said a bunch and I can't hear Kouki, I take it you need sustenance as well?"He wasn't sure if that meant she would subject himself to his strict diet, as much as he wanted to ask, that always seemed to prove to be a mood killer in the past. The moment of silence stretched, followed with the awkward conversation of last night. He knew it was coming, as he slipped on a new pair of boxer briefs and tossed the formerly worn pair in the laundry basket. "Lets see where it goes, hm?" the life hunter replied back after a moment of thought. It wasn't the worse night of his life in his book. "After all, we're just.... looking out for each other, right?" he continued, giving the female a peck on the forehead. He knew Madison was a lot of things, but being cute as a button when she blushed was going to have to be added to the books. "No regrets."

" Your world?" Madison grinned. "Pretty sure they're all always hungry. It's just the degree that they complain that's different. And yeah, I could probably use something... I didn't eat a whole bunch, last few days. Didn't feel like it." Anxiety about Kouki had twisted her stomach into a knot, but now that the serpent-sword was back, hunger was making itself known. "Too bad they don't offer room service, right?" When the silence opened up between them, she just watched him move, one hand fiddling with the beads of Kouki's bracelet; when he finally responded, she let out a quiet breath of relief. "Yeah, sounds good to me," she said, flashing him a genuine smile; a faint pleased pinkness spread over her face when he kissed her forehead. "Absolutely." A grumble from her own stomach coincided with another silent complaint from Kouki, and she sighed. "Of course, to feed them I have to go fight something. Geez. They should have FEAR-dispensers in the cafeteria or something... you up for a round, maybe? After food. And clothes. Clothes before food," she added, looking down ruefully at her bathrobe. She was not going to wear that to the cafeteria.

"If they offered room service, I'm sure it would be Doctor H, walking around with a plate of caviar, wine, strawberries and some Marvin Gaye playing on a speaker." Leon replied back dryly, snorting at the concept behind the image. All too soon, it was expected. it was the moment of time he was dreading, the awkward silence.The time when self reflection was done and questioning if the right thing was done, that moment of hesitation for the sake of a friendly relationship. The fact that Madison didn't open up with the questions on their friendship wafted of him with relief. it was almost as strong as the sense of feeling when the bracelet was wrapped around his wrist again. A sense of belonging, of a item that was his and his alone back in place, it was a good feeling. 'One day, they will make Emergency FEAR rations, or even sell capsules of FEAR in the compound." he stated back proudly with an affirmative nod. It wasn't as if the Life techs weren't already thinking about it, it was in the works, albeit far from ready, but it was on the table. Right next to a hidden transmitter that Caelius could have bugged on his clothing that offers a warning when he was nearby within a 20 foot radius. "Define what you mean by round Madison, both my heads are thinking differently about this."-what are you talking about meathead, I'M THINKING ABOUT FOOD!-"I didn't mean you Nid."

Madison smirked, plainly flattered by his interest. "A round of sparring, to shut these two up... temporarily. And once the peanut gallery has been sated, maybe another round of something else." She raised one eyebrow at him.

Madison had a plan. Leon liked this plan, especially where it was heading. "Well then lets get these two dragon fed on the double."Cuz Leon wanted to have seconds. and the one night just was not enough. He didn't hold back from grabbing the swordsmaster around the waist and tugging her out of the room. "Im not worried about my exercise today because im sure to get enough cardio as the day progresses"

"Hey, hey, whoa-" Madison laughed, then squirmed away before they could pass her door. "Hang on. Just a second. I am not going to the cafeteria in my bathrobe, let alone sparring in it." She aimed another kiss at his cheek, then quickly opened her door and slipped inside, closing it behind her. ... It was slightly longer than a second, but three minutes was pretty good turn-around. When Madison emerged again, she had a more 'normal' outfit on, her coat slung over one arm, and she'd had a go at fixing up her makeup. "Ready~"

"I still think you looked better in the bathrobe." Leon offered Madison a smirk before extending his hand and pointing the direction of the mess hall. "Shall we?"

"Yeah, well," Madison smirked back, then pushed open the door and headed out. "Don't need much, just a coffee and a breakfast bar or muffin or something. Just enough to get through a bout..." Mm. Coffee. Kouki made a contented hissing noise in her mind, and her smile grew at the sound of him. God, could this morning get any better? Bloodlust Dante if you wanna timeskip through food and say they ate and then ended up on the practice field that's fine with me!
