It was obvious that Asher found something fascinating about the Cajun, and while Max was ignorant to the idea of homosexuality being odd (he had, after all, been Ezekiel’s apprentice) he found the whole display entertaining. Vesper certainly did. The four of them had settled in nicely and Max was glad for it. Before Inferni he had known only isolation and fear from groups. This was his pack. In the vague, distant part of his being that was feral and primeval in nature, he identified Inferni as home and safety and therefore found himself most comfortable around them. He would likely never be able to shake the notion, but this was his home. Maybe someday he would find a girl to settle down with and make babies, but he was young yet and still beyond such things. Still, he thought of Draugr and smiled wistfully at the idea, wondering what children with her might look like…
A cup was pushed into his vision and Max blinked twice, clearing his head. The same could not be said for the moonshine, which burnt the whole way down and settled into a warm pit in his stomach. It growled loudly and Rémy laughed behind him. “It’s a comin’, it’s a comin’!” And sure enough, he tested the stew and found it adequate to serve. With great flourish the coydog ladled three bowls of the stuff and balancing precariously, placed them before the trio. He padded back to gather his own and pulled up a seat next to Max, much to the young warrior’s chagrin. The coydog poured everyone another round of drinks, took his own, and then motioned for everyone to eat.
