Cas sighed shakily, burying his face into Zachary's neck to try and steal his warmth. Nix was somewhat awake by now, but still very noticeably sleepy. He was drained from all the crying.

Zachary rested his head against Cas's, humming faintly. Serna scratched Nix's head lightly, bringing him out to the living room and sitting down with him.

Cas looked up at Serna shyly, still shivering. Nix purred a bit when the goddess started petting him, closing his eyes and leaning into her hand. "H-How long can we stay here, ma'am?" Cas asked meekly.

"You can stay as long as you need to, sweetie. I'm not gonna be kicking you out anytime soon." Serna looked over at Cas, noting how he was shivering.
"Do you want to come over here? I can help you warm up." Serna patted the seat beside her. She still kept petting Nix, holding him close.

"B-But I don't wanna leave Zachary…" Cas replied quietly, holding tightly to Zachary. "Halm hurt him too." He rested his head on the other's shoulder and tightened his grip on the blanket, still shivering.

Serna's eyebrows drew together. She turned to look at Zachary. He looked up at she with his broken eyes, and she let out a long breath.
"So that's why you're like this…" She gently reached out to cup Zachary's chin, and he leaned into her hand, closing his eyes. He nodded a bit.

"I-I don't know what he did to him…" Cas said weakly. "But he… h-he hurt him, and I'm trying to help him get better. I dunno how to help, though… we're working on talking right now." He gently kissed Zachary.

Serna was caught off guard when Cas kissed Zachary, and even more so when Zachary kissed back.
"I… I know what he did, darling, but I don't think it's a good idea to tell you." Especially with the look Zachary gave her, pleading with her not to.
"But I can tell you it was an accident." She moved over to the side of the couch, bringing Nix with her.

Cas sighed softly and nodded, huddling closer to Zachary. "B-But he still hurt him… look what he did to him! H-He can't walk!" He whimpered, hugging Zachary tight. "Or talk much at all… he can only really say one thing from what we've found…"

"I see… Which word is it, dear?" Zachary hesitated a moment.
"L… Love." He kissed Cas's head gently, tightening his grip on the boy. Serna closed her eyes a moment.

Cas smiled softly and returned the kiss, seeming pleased. "He's getting better at it too. We're still working on it, though. It's encouraging, though… I really think he'll be able to get better."

Serna nodded, watching as Zachary leaned into the kiss.
"Yes, it is. He should be able of form simple sentences soon." She let out a small breath, concerned.
"Is it alright if I talk to Zachary alone for a bi" she asked of Cas.

"Oh! Um… yeah, sure, I'll just… go into the bedroom…" Cas replied awkwardly, wrapping himself up in his blanket and wandering out of the room. Nix yawned and huddled closer to Serna.

Serna ran her fingers through Nix's hair once, turning to Zachary with a stern look.
"I'm disappointed in you," she said, voice as stern as her eyes. "That boy couldn't be more than twelve!" Zachary tried to interject, but Serna stopped him.
"I expected more from you, especially knowing what happened to your sister."

Nix looked up at Serna, a bit confused before he remembered how young Cas looked. "Um… Miss Serna?" He asked softly. "Cas isn't twelve years old." He fidgeted a bit, curling his tail around himself.

Serna looked at Nix, raising an eyebrow inquisitively.
"Then how old is he? Surely not old enough for being with Zachary." Zachary let out a long breath, rubbing his face.

Nix flushed lightly. "He's nineteen, ma'am. I've lived with him for years. I'm technically his cat, after all, but Halm turned me into a person… But I know Cas looks really young. He gets that a lot."

Serna was completely surprised by this information.
"I'm sure he would…" she said softly. She turned to Zachary.
"I'm dreadfully sorry, Zachary sweetie." Zachary shrugged a bit, offering a small smile in acceptance. He understood.

"Should we call him back in? I'm sure he's still freezing…" Nix looked over at the door that Cas had disappeared into and sighed. "I wouldn't bring this up to him, by the way… he's really self conscious about his height."

Serna nodded.
"Okay then. I can go get him. And I won't say a word about it." She stood, setting Nix down a moment. She looked at Gloria.
"Could you help Zachary to the couch?" Gloria nodded, helping Zachary to the seat next to Nix. Serna knocked on Cas's door.
"Do you want to come back out now?"

Cas nodded and came back out of the bedroom, still huddled up in the blanket and shivering. "Is something wrong?" He asked. "Did I do something wrong again?"

"No, you didn't do anything wrong, dear. I just had to talk with Zachary a moment to figure things out." Serna gently stood next to Cas, putting one arm around him to keep him warmer.
"Everyone is out on the couch now. Do you want to join us?"

"Mhmm…" Cas stuck close to Serna for warmth and crawled back into Zachary's lap when they returned to the living room. It was getting to be pretty late in the day by now and both Cas and Nix seemed to be pretty groggy.

Serna sat down next to Zachary and Cas, her warmth still reaching the mortal. She set her hand on Nix's head, sighing softly.
"You two don't look like you'll be awake much longer. Why don't I get you a quick snack before we all head off to bed?"

They both shook their heads. "Not hungry…" Cas mumbled, huddling closer to Zachary with his eyes closed. "Not much of an appetite after today, ma'am…"
