Nic stays quiet as Cassi tells him everything he’d missed while training this morning. Resting a hand on her knee, he showed her an encouraging smile to keep talking. His brow furrowed to learn that the two of them were in similar positions because of their families and he wished he could say or do something to help his girlfriend through this, just as she was helping him with his father.

As Cassi starts apologizing for ‘upstaging’ Nic’s situation,  he plucks her tea out of her hands and sets it down. Swiftly, he wraps his arms around Cassi and pulls her close, hugging her tightly. [color=F7941D]“I don’t care how big or small something is or if I’m dealing with something; I want to know what’s going on in your life. I want you to rely on me… I want us to rely on each other.”[/color] He keeps his tight hold on her for a few moments longer before releasing her, cupping her face now to kiss her forehead.

[color=F7941D]“I can only understand so much of what you’re going through right now, but I want you to know I am here for you and I love you.”[/color] He places another kiss on her forehead before adding, [color=f7941d]“And you’re entirely too adorable.”[/color] With that he hugs her tightly again, pulling her into his lap.

Nero peeks over the large book they’re in the middle of at Caden’s news, eyebrow raised. The book blocks their excited grin from Kiki, but they’re sure Caden can see it from his perspective. Almost falling into a fit of giggles, Nero bites their lip and ducks their head into the book again. Their wiggling in the seat is impossible to miss though.

Kiki had just begun diving into some of the angelic and demonic archives available when she felt it - a tug at her consciousness. She’s already starting to perk up and look around when Caden announces Avery’s awake. Having paid attention to the important lesson from this morning regarding mating bonds, Kiki doesn’t even try to block him out, even though the idea is tempting.

[color=FFF79A]“He’ll be able to find us based on me, right?”[/color] Kiki asks of Caden before settling back into her seat. [color=FFF79A]“Because I suddenly feel [i]very[/i] dedicated to this research.”[/color] Try as she might, she still sits straight in her chair like there’s a board attached to her spine. She has to force herself not to get up and run to him; he needs to seek [i]her[/i] out if he wants to repair this.
