She knocks before entering, but it's quiet.

Well, it's late, it should be quiet.

Moon pads into the suite on her bare feet (she briefly wonders if she's ever owned shoes) and makes her way to Indy's room. The wolves behind her, she stops just over the threshold and turns to them.

"No. You two are staying in the living room. And don't go terrifying the other residents here, all right? Just... be good. Like... normal puppies or something."

Mons sits and tilts her head. Why can we not sleep at the foot of the bed as we did last time?

Because she and Indy intend to make puppies. Mare proudly states this, nuzzling Mons' muzzle.

Moon feels herself flush painfully. "We are not making puppies, Mare. You two are enough for me, thank you, and... just... no!" Gods of the multiverse, she felt so silly. "Go sleep by the sofa and behave."

Mons and Mare trot off, their voices distant to her as they talk between themselves, and she sighs and closes the door to Indy's room.

Puppies?

No.

No puppies, no kitties, no chicks, no calves, no babies.

Moon sheds her clothes, folding them neatly as she does, and chooses to conjure a creamy white slip to wear. She wasn't shy or modest by any stretch of the imagination, but she didn't want to just sit nude in Indy's bed.

That just seems tasteless to her.

She pulls down the sheet and blanket on one side and crawls in and looks around the room as she hadn't the last two times she'd been in it. It was an Indy room, she decides. Very much like him and very much like the rough and laughy drink he'd given her.

Slowly, she smiles, nestling down into the bed where she could smell him so easily.



Oh, she very much likes him, she decides as she waits for his bartending shift to end.

Indy's first response takes the form of an incoherent croak.

With considerable effort, he then manages to regroup his mental faculties and offer something decipherable.

"Dunno about ours, as a unit, but we passed mine quite some time ago."

He doesn't look unhappy about it though. Not in the slightest.

"Heh. Shame on me," Indy replies, with a distinct lack of remorse.

He's still wheezing a bit from the recent exertions, but composure is starting to return.

"I know," Indy concedes. "But then I'd have left myself open to a whole new round of old man stamina jokes."

He lifts his eyebrows and directs a lop-sided smile at her.

"Or, y'know, maybe I just couldn't help myself."

"Uh huh," Indy deadpans, not buying it at all.

"I'd like that in writing."

Without disturbing her comfortable snuggle, he reaches out for the bedside table and starts fumbling around in the drawer for something.

"Not a bad philosophy," he says, a touch distractedly.

Her first query doesn't get an answer. A crease of frustration appears across his forehead as he continues to rummage. His search isn't yielding much so far.

"Dammit. Mike must've filched 'em again."

He sighs and slides the drawer shut again.

"Nevermind. You wouldn't have approved anyway."

"And yeah," he chuckles. "Nothing's sacred around here. Not even my underwear."

"He says he does. My good silk ones. I never quite know if he's kidding, and I've never actually caught him in the act."

He wrinkles his nose disparagingly.

"Er. No. It's a one way thing, if it happens at all."

"Mmmm. True."

There's an air of amusement in Indy's tone now.

"But, it's not like he purloins 'em while I actually have 'em on."

As if somehow prompted by her actions, Indy begins to apply some similarly absent strokes to her back, while chuckling at her remark.

"I'll be sure to tell him that they're now under your protection."

When Indy is done chuckling at that comment, he plants a kiss on the top of her head.

"Knowing him, he'd prob'ly respect that without questioning. Not that I'd ever declare you to be off your nut."

"Not blind," Indy corrects.

"Able to appreciate them, and look beyond them."

His eyebrows raise again, more quizzically this time.

"You do?"
