She hadn't thought of that. But Tessa didn't think it'd be a problem. It was easier for her -extremely easier- for her to keep this form. Control was still unmastered, but hopefully Tessa could assert her will enough....It was chancy, but she felt no need to change. Plus Tessa highly doubted that it would happen in this cold. I'll be fine. One thing, though, was on her mind. Food. A mouse nearby, suspiciously looking like the one Khe had tried to give her yesterday, (had it been yesterday? It seemed so long ago...) was twitching his whiskers. Tessa hadn't eaten breakfast. Very fast, in barely a couple of seconds, she was off of Khe and had caught the rodent, happily gulping it down and not caring a whit about what Khe thought.

Khe chuckled. "I must really like you, I even thought that was cute."

Which is slightly sad, commented Tesssa, winding her way up to her former position, a slight bulge from her meal showing and slowing her down.

Khe nuzzled against her as she reached his shoulder. "Well even if it is, i'd prefer it no other way."

Same, she said softly, topaz eyes bright and trusting.

Khe smiled. "Come on, we'll go to my place, er...my other place that is, the one I have that no one else knows about." he laughed as he began trudging through the woods away from the collective HQ.

You've made yourself your own place? That was impressive....the fact that he had been able to make one without anyone else knowing it was even more so. Already they had passed far enough from the Collective to down a mountain, and entering the treeline. Everything was frosted in white from snowfall, which muffled all the sounds.

"Actually..." Khe said sheepishly, I have 4 various places, two people know about, and two only I know about..." He explained, he couldn't bring himself to lie to her.

The cobra was just incredulous. That's amazing.

Khe laughed. "Why? Whats so amazing?" He asked as they drew near to the secret hom he spoke of.

You, she said simply.

"Not anywhere near as amazing as you." he returned before leaning down and lifting a snow and earth covered trap door to reaveal a downward staircase.

Tessa had no clue what to say, and instead hsowe affection for him through a whirlwind of emotions. She tightened slightly around his neck as they began the descent down, for fear of getting shaken off...

Khe had the same fear as he descended and let a hand rest on her reassuringly. They entered into a room which he immeditaly lit with candles. It looked excatly like a cozy log cabin, only without windows and the soft candlight gave everything apleasant warmth. It was an unusually plaesant place considering it's proximity to the collective.

It's lovely, she commented, flowing down his side.
