Truthfully speaking, it hadn't felt all that long since Fuu had been captured by some crazy ass Hollow, and since Arianda had essentially intimidated to release Fuu. Regardless, it had been more than long enough and Arianda knew Fuu needed a bit of a return back to normal instead of what she had been doing; a lot of rest at Ari's behest. Now, however? There was no need to continue her resting if she was sound of body, and better in respects to the event she had endured.

Because of this, Arianda effectively shoved her way into Fuu's room, opening the door quite rudely as she burst her way in. If the noise of a door slamming open wasn't enough to wake Fuu, Arianda flopping onto the woman's bed and giving her one hell of a hug, not enough to hurt or anything, to help wake her up even further before Arianda carefully placed a tray of food upon Fuu's lap after the woman sat up a bit.

"Wakey Wakey, Fuu~! This may be your last breakfast in bed unless you ask for more~! It's a bit light, I know, but I want you to meet me outside when you've eaten up and dressed. We could use a bit of training~"

With an adoring pat to Fuu's head, and a bit of subconscious scratching behind one of the woman's cat ears, the demon pecked Fuu on the head and left the woman's room without further ado; unless she was stopped by Fuu. After all, Arianda had to get a bit more ready herself! Otherwise, Fuu would come outside to an unprepared Ari; and that simply wouldn't do~

A Return to Form

Fuurinji was curled up, blanket pulled completely over her, and dead asleep. Constantly sleeping on the ground in gods-knows-where wasn't exactly comfortable, so a proper bed, blanket and heating made her all too comfortable. Even as Arianda came into the room and began takling, Fuurinji didn't stir in the slightest.

Even as Arianda's hand met her head, she did not wake, though she did slightly lean into the hand until it was pulled away. It wasn't until the door itself was closed that she began to stir a bit, peaking out from under the covers and looking around the room only to see just the tray of food which had slid down next to her, though surprisingly nothing had spilt from it, so she began to eat what was presented in an admittedly slow manner.

Given Fuu's lack of rising for a few moments, it gave Arianda more than enough time to properly prepare for the woman. After a period of time, Arianda re-entered the woman's room and shut the door behind her. The demon walked in and carefully sat next to Fuurinji, resting a hand upon the woman's head as she begun to pet her carefully. Frankly speaking, Arianda was mostly petting Fuu because the woman had leaned into her hand while sleeping. Even if it was only a fluke, the demon desired to convey her affection to the woman gently.

After Arianda found a break in which Fuu stopped eating her food, or at least a general breaking point, Arianda caressed one of the woman's ears with gentle fingers. Clearly, she was fixing to say something but she didn't want to interrupt Fuu at the exact moment. With the right timing, however, Arianda did her best not to interrupt Fuu's eating too badly.

"How are you feeling, hun~?"

Arianda continued to caress the woman's sensitive ears and otherwise pet Fuurinji as the woman ate and whenever she decided to reply to the demon. Frankly speaking, Arianda was more than happy to sit here and pet Fuu for a long while, even if the demon did have some training planned for Fuu. Scraping off the rust was a good thing to do, especially in this world, but it was also a good idea to enjoy life to the utmost while you can.

A Return to Form

The girl was groggy at best and still almost asleep at worse to be honest, barely even registering that Arianda had reentered the room. Her head only slightly leaning into her when it rested atop it, more focused on eating than anything else. As she began to move towards her ears though, the girl did pull away and shake her head with a soft grumble. Even as she asked her a question, the only answer she got was another muffled grumbling from the girl almost as if she was upset that she'd been woken up.

Once she had finished her food, or at least what she cared to eat, she moved the tray off her own lap and back onto the demon's lap before flopping back down into the bed and curling back into a small ball. The girl was either still very tired, or just didn't want to get out of bed... whichever one that was, was a mystery.

ARIANDA VAEL

In times like these did Fuu's feline side really shine through. Not only did the woman respond poorly to Arianda trying to pet her ears, she also pushed the try from her lap and back onto Arianda's. The response brought a small smile to Arianda's face as she looked upon the woman who, moments after, curled into a tight ball to go right back to sleep. Arianda couldn't help but giggle softly as she carefully slipped the tray of food, unfinished or otherwise, onto the table next to Fuu's bed. Truly this woman was far more feline like than Fuu might ever admit, and Arianda found it positively adorable.

As the demon watched Fuurinji for a few moments longer, calmly observing her breathing and overall state of being, Arianda reached a hand up to gently caress the woman's back. After a few moments of gentle caressing, the demon then moved to the woman's head, but swiftly faked out the movement with the softest movement down the woman's back and carefully up the woman's tail if it wasn't covered; but it likely was. With another movement, Arianda caressed the woman's head gently and inched ever so slowly to the woman's ears; intending to pet them if Fuu didn't pull away suddenly. If Arianda was successful in reaching the woman's ears, she would caress and pet them with all the gentleness she could manage with her dancing fingers. Watching her like this... she was honestly adorable.

Ah, however, if she laid in bed all day, they would simply get nothing done. After Arianda let Fuu sleep for a good ten minutes, in which Arianda couldn't help but worry over Fuu's destroyed eyes, Arianda began to gently shake Fuu awake; a gentle croon in her warm voice.

"Fuuuuu~ Wakey Wakey~ Else we shall have to seize the night instead of the day~! If I must drag you out of bed, I will~"

Arianda continued her gentle shaking, more of a gentle upset of Fuu's shoulder than anything else. However, she would make the movement more insistent the longer it took for Fuu to awake. Perhaps it was a dangerous business, but Arianda didn't mind. After all, even if Fuu lashed out in her sleep for being woken so rudely, she couldn't hurt Arianda in a way that wouldn't heal; at least, that's what Ari figured~!

Honestly by the time Arianda had reached for her again, Fuurinji had already fallen right back to sleep. It didn't take much for her to fall asleep in all honesty, she'd learned and gotten comfortable sleeping just about anywhere so a warm and comfy bed was a place that she could just slip right off into sleep. Even after the ten extra minutes she was 'given', she didn't begin to wake as she was shaken.

In truth even after almost a full minute of intense attempts at waking her the best Arianda had gotten was grumbling and a few attempts to pull away to try and keep sleeping, though never anything 'violent' as she might've thought. No it wasn't until almost two minutes that she finally got some kind of coherent response out of her "mmm... then the night will be seized... no daylight..."

She muttered only half coherently, though if the incessant shaking continued for much longer Fuurinji would finally cave with a grumble and a huff, her head moving to glare at the woman for a few moments before she stretched and let out another huff.

ARIANDA VAEL

Really... What would Arianda do with Fuu? Not only was the woman not waking up, she was refusing to almost entirely. Frankly speaking, Arianda found it quite adorable. Arianda studied the Shinigami for a few moments longer before she hummed and made up her mind. With a snap of her fingers, Arianda poofed herself into comfy pajamas as she ceased her shaking right after Fuu spoke. If she wished to seize the night instead, then so be it~ Ah, but there would be a price for keeping Ari waiting.

Arianda hummed quietly to herself as she made sure every and all curtains were closed, she sent the food away with a flick of her wrist and she considered Fuu. She did adore the feline woman quite a great deal, and Ari didn't have anything else planned but letting Fuu rest for now was fine. After all, the price for Fuu sleeping in was that she would just have to cuddle Ari until she woke up~! Really, it wasn't much of a "price" more of Ari being herself. Fuu looked so adorable, it was a bit hard to help herself.

Without preamble, Arianda slipped next to Fuu in the bed, moved the covers some so Ari would now be under them too, and the demon cuddled right up to Fuu. She hummed quietly as she snuggled up to the Shinigami, rested her head against the woman's shoulder blade, wrapped her arms around Fuu's waist, as much as she could at least, and soon Ari too had drifted off to sleep. Perhaps this wasn't the best solution, but it was far better than trying to make the feline woman wake up before she was ready~! As it was Ari was conked out too, giving Fuu the best cuddles ever.

At first Fuurinji didn't reciprocate, merely accepted. Allowing the woman to cuddle and wrap her arms around her as she slept, primarily just wanting to sleep and being allowed too right now was all she cared about. Her sleep finally allowed to be, mostly, peaceful.

But as they slept together she shifted slowly, until eventually she was pushed back against the woman, held safely within her arms. In fact Arianda's arms were slowly shifted and pulled until they wrapped entirely around the feline Shinigami's torso, with Fuurinji's own hands holding onto the womans tightly. Perhaps it was simply the lack of protection that caused this, perhaps it was something else entirely.

Whatever the reason, whilst they slept it was happening, held comfortably within the woman's arms to a comfortable extent. Her own hands squeezing Arianda's as she slept and acting as the 'little spoon' as some might call it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They sleep was kept entirely uninterrupted for the longest of times. Hours which to some might've felt like weeks, months, or perhaps even years... It did not matter. Such tranquil sleep could only be interrupted by one thing, something that caused the feline Shinigami's eyes to shoot open at such speed that by the time her eyelids had reached their fullest she was already out of the bed.

Perhaps to some her speed might not've been that impressive, but for Fuurinji... it was a speed that was matched only by her fastest possible Shunpo. Such immedicacy that even the door to her room was destroyed as she proceeded into a series of Shunpo that led her right out the front, whether that be through a window or a door she didn't care.

By the time she had arrived her Zanpakuto was already drawn from its sheath, Fuurinji herself in a battle-ready stance as if there was a hollow at their front door step... Yet there was nothing, no Hollow, No Quincy, No enemy in sight. But for the Shinigami, she had sensed something was amiss. In spite of her difficulty sensing specifics, it wasn't difficult to tell that SOMETHING was amiss.

In truth, she couldn't explain it... She couldn't explain why her instincts were so refined in this precise moment, couldn't explain why she had reacted in the way she did.... In fact even if Arianda or another within the house had approached her... She didn't budge or ease. Her Zanpakuto remained at the ready, her eyes, despite being blind to sight, wide open and darting around the area as if there was some kind of invisible enemy.

Yet.... there was nothing... No Hollow was even within dozens of miles of their remote location.... No Quincy, No Enemy what-so-ever... Not even another Shinigami.

ARIANDA VAEL

The more time that Ari spent with Fuu in her arms, the drowsier and drowsier the demon became as the ‘big spoon’. She didn’t fall asleep immediately, so Ari was awake long enough to experience how Fuu held her arms and hands. She drew Arianda around her and closer, their fingers interlacing as Fuurinji began to hold the demon’s hands. Whatever the Shinigami’s reasons for such actions, Arianda rolled with it. She warmly snuggled up to Fuu in those mere moments before sleep finally took her, and she snuggled into Fuu dearly.

—————————————————————————

Arianda’s dreams were unclouded and unburdened as she remained as physically close to Fuu as sleep would allow. As such, Arianda didn’t fully notice when Fuu’s spontaneous awakening cast the demon’s arm away. It simply mixed into her dream. However, the violent splinting and tearing of a door being rent away from its frame and hinges certainly did the trick. Arianda’s eyes snapped open as she sat up swiftly; her half lidded eyes peering upon what little remained of Fuu’s door.

With a frown, Arianda slipped out of Fuu’s bed and moved towards the destroyed door. Following the trail of splintered wood, and what appeared to be a broken window, with the tiniest bit of blood upon one of the broken shards, Arianda saw Fuu outside; seemingly prepared for an invisible enemy. The demon frowned again before she clambered out the window, also cutting herself on the glass; but it healed nigh instantly.

Arianda then moved up behind Fuu, that characteristic tired stumble ruining her usual gait. Without warning, Fuu would feel Arianda’s chest press against Fuu’s back. Soon, the demon’s supple, yet strong, arms wrapped around the Shinigami’’s waist. Arianda’s chin also rest upon Fuu’s rigid and tense shoulder, careful of her horns the whole time.

”Fuuuu… Come back to bed~ I don’t sense anything dangerous immediately near us…”

Arianda yawned softly as she held onto Fuu, clearly just at the precipice between being awake and falling asleep. But the affection in her voice, and the concern, was unmistakable. Additionally, the way she was hugging Fuu conveyed more emotion and care than words could provide. However, she didn’t want to discount whatever may have bothered the woman.

”Do… Do you know what you sensed, F-Fuuu~? ”

Fuurinji didn't respond or even react as Arianda leaned against her, her body as rigid as it had ever been in preparation for a non-existent attack that would never come or materialize. Even as Arianda spoke, her body remained completely still and unresponsive for several minutes. It wasn't after almost five minutes that her body began to finally relax slightly, though her hand still gripped the hilt of her Zanpakuto tightly.

But with the relaxing of her body, her lips finally opened to respond to her question "I... don't know. Something's different, something's wrong..." She silently cursed her inability to sense things properly as she moved to sit down where she was, placing her Zanpakuto in her lap and pulling the bracelet from her wrist that suppressed her Reiatsu. While she didn't actively use it much anymore, she did still use it to help correct the fluctuations she still had.

But as she removed it, the, admittedly tiny, Reiatsu that was held back began to flow freely once more as she closed her eyes. She went silent once more as she began to concentrate, trying to sense whatever it was that had her on such high alert. "There's nothing and no one around... But I know something is wrong..."
