Fortunately, they weren't going to capture them. Instead they were amazed and perhaps a bit grossed out by how humanlike the roache's hands looked. Very uncanny...but interesting!

So much so that they simply laid down onto the floor to watch. Eyes wide in amazement as they simply observed. Perhaps they were just bored today?

Send me a ‘★’ if you actually like my blog. Takes a second, means a lot

You're far too sweet. I like your blogs a lot too. Especially your art and worldbuilding stuff! Really truly your style is so unique.

Surprise! The plague demon in their bugboss form was standing over Sterling while he was in bed. Softly crooning at their dear before leaving a gift of jewels and riches they plundered from many a dungeon.~ leaving it on the nightstand, carefully not to wake their husband. Though, there was a pause in their attempt to leave, rigid as a statue- the demon pondered something, carefully, their attentive antennae droop low in regret. A quiet ruckle escaped their beak before laying themselves right on top of Sterling, as if it felt like the same weight pressed on to them like a sleep paralysis demon. Thankfully... Without the paralysis part!

Well, even if they were one Sterling would never want to try and move.

And he did at first.

Allowing himself to feel the weight on his body with his eyes still closed, minus the small smile on his face, content of the body heat against his. Sometimes it's a little reminder that they still felt the same.

So to keep that way his arms does eventually move to wrap around the tall bugboss, keeping them just where he wanted them to be.

At least till the morning~

Vincentaux! What are your thoughts on the reputation your family had gotten from the other houses? Is there something you wish to dissuade, something big? something small? Is it better to let such whispers be?

Vincentaux sighs quietly, and thinks for a moment on his response, though it was something that came up often.

"It is a reputation well earned. House Bourreau is a house of inquisitors and executioners, first and foremost, before personal or professional relation, before any values at all. To interact with us is to court hatred and danger. It is better to think of us as a specialized military force than a family, cold as it may be."

The second part was what actually gave him pause. It was tiring to be treated as a threat that meant all he encountered ill. But the reality was not far from it. He was a protector, but to protect is to eliminate threats. He was always on the lookout for a reason. Better to keep away from someone like him. Even moreso the rest of his family.

"... There is naught to amend. Should fear and superstition keep them safe, so be it."

-Full of trust, bor puts their figures in jack's enclosure, surely confident that they won't lose a finger or draw blood!-

>> Jack chomps on Bor so so gently

[cyberneticlagomorph]

I don't know why, but I feel like I wanna put my fingers in your enclosure!

do it, it's so safe :3

yup!! they're in roach mode, and they began preening the tendril, though... cute aggression is a hell of a feeling, and this palmsized demon bug do be nipping!

Go on try to touch them || Accepting

WHOOPS yep that first unexpected bite is going to trigger that tendril to LASH like a horse's tail to get that unidentified biter OFF

Bor curiously tappa their antennae on his tendrils, then just... places one and keeps it there. Are they tasting? what are they listening for? we just don't know!

Go on try to touch them || Accepting

If Bor's in roach mode, he's not even going to feel that they're there. His tendrils are just swaying idly. Might make it a bit tough to do...whatever they're trying to do.
