"Everything is so pretty up here Cal! Thank you, for…..uh, sitting with me. Most people have told me to shut up a lot by now. I tend to be sort of annoying. Sorry." Orion starts off chipper, but his voice grows slowly quieter, like he is ashamed for pointing it out, and his ears and tail are drooping.

Cal turned to the cat man as he spoke, watching his happy expression turn somber. Normally, Cal would have shrugged it off, saying something along the lines of the fact he didn't have anyone else to talk to, and being alone kind of sucked. However, Orion looked truly grateful and his expression was apologetic, looking ashamed for asking to have someone to talk to. As far as Cal was aware, it was just the two of them in the jungle. To be quite honest, it was kind of a good thing. Orion seemed like a truly sweet person who just needed a friend to talk to.
Scooting over closer to Orion, he wrapped an arm around his back, embracing him the best he could.
"You're not annoying," Cal assured him. "I'm just not a super talkative person is all. Your enthusiasm is a nice change for me if I'm being honest."
(AND CUE THE SHIP)

(DUDE LOOK IN THE OTHER RP, I HAD SOME SHIP ACTION THERE TOO LMAO)

(STOP MAKING ME SCREAM DURING CLASS XD)

Cal's eyes widened. Orion was crying? He felt the need to calm him down. His mind went back to the young girl he had to watch over (in the story universe he belongs to btw), and did his best to use any experience to soothe his companion.
"Hey, hey, stop apologizing, okay? No need to cry…" Cal said in a calm voice.

(Cal is just like: OH NO, THE CINNAMON ROLL IS CRYING. SHOOT, WHAT DO? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

(I TOLD YOU TO STOP MAKING ME SCREAM IN CLASS LMAO)

(draw more Satthias-)

(ALSO I DREW ORION, CA1)

Hearing his breaths even out, he notices Orion fell asleep on him. Figuring the position isn't quite comfortable for either of them, he backs up against the trunk and shifts Orion to sit on his lap. He also wrapped an arm around Orion again to be sure he didn't fall or something. Maybe Cal imagined it, but he swore Orion attempted to snuggle closer than they already were. His hair brushed up against Cal's skin as he slept. It was quite soft and the man smelt of something sweet. The fresh outdoors were also having effects of calming Cal, and he drifted to sleep as well, still holding on to his precious cat.
