BURNING MY DREAMS
Since he didn't have a toy at the moment the knife didn't quite matter to him at the moment. Bastion figured that it would always remain right where it was for when he needed it. He hadn't scented anyone else having been in this area any time recently so he figured someone wouldn't find it later. If no one had discovered it before then why should they be stumbling upon it now. The small boy fully believed that this whole town was going to be under his rule and control. He didn't think that he would ever have to worry about someone else finding this place that he didn't end up bringing here.
He settled himself onto Janos's back after he was picked up and placed back there. The small male wrapped both his arms and his legs around the larger male as he held tightly onto him so that he didn't fall off. He smiled when Janos reached back to check on him and made sure that he was there securely and nuzzled his face against the back of the other's neck. Of course that ended up leading to Bastion licking at the mark that was back there, lavishing it with attention as he was being carried.
A slight nod was given as the other explained how the place had been found. It didn't really matter if it was accident or not just so long as it worked. He waited until they were down into the cellar before lifting his head from Janos's back. A glance around was given before he ended up loosening his hold so that he could slide down from his puppy's back. He listened to what the other male was saying as he slowly paced the room. It was big enough to hold multiple toys if need be. And well, he had to agree with the hybrid on what was being said about making this place fitting. The room by itself would help and work hand in hand with whatever he did decide to do.
"Good puppy. Like it. It work." The words were given as he ended up quickly returning to the other. He shivered with the chill of the room and made to press himself close to the other male in order to try and warm back up some. His fur had helped to keep out the cold at first but the longer he spent down here the more it seeped in. "You make exit?" He figured that it the other would bring it up then he would do the work on it as well. It would be nice to have a secret escape just in case.
With another yawn the boy ended up lifting his arms over his head again. "Home now." He gave the simple instruction. He liked the place and figure that they could come back later now that they knew just where it was and outfit it to where it would be ready for when Bastion got toys. Of course that would also mean finding things to outfit it with. After all it was lacking something to tether the toys and keep them in place. There was nothing they could do about that now until they found things that would work and brought them here. Not that he was looking to do that now. No, all he wanted to do was to report back to leadership that the mission was accomplished and then curl up to get an extra bit of rest since he had gotten up early and walked all over to even find someplace that could be used. Trips after this wouldn't take as long as this one hand since they knew where to go and could head directly here rather than the round about way they had come previously since the place wasn't know about.
Maybe even after they get back and inform the leadership then napped they could come back. Right now Bastion didn't want to do anything more than take a glance around and get back. Perhaps when he didn't feel tired, or simply eager to get this over with, he would be more willing to take a closer look. After all he didn't want leadership to think he was slacking off on his task. He wanted to get it over and done with. He wanted to just let them know it was done and then work out things on his own time. Because once they knew it was in place he would be able to come and go as he pleased without checking in and giving progress reports. If he was looked for and found missing then it could be assumed that he would be working on preparing his secret place. At least that was how the thoughts worked themselves out in his head. |
