<i>"First of all, I can use energy around me, you know this. The bat is just a host for it. Besides, I do like giving a few hard hits."</i>Her incredulous look made him smile because he knew she could handle herself fairly well in a tussle. However that didn't mean he disliked poking her buttons any less.  Raelyn was a prideful creature; and he knew exactly what to say to make her simmer. Her temperament had never been a problem for him. He like that she was so emotional--and unafraid to feel things. Unless they had to do with him apparently. Then she was a veritable vault. Suddenly unable to decide whether she wanted to degrade him or help him.<br/><br/><i>"You could at least pretend to be in pain, it's frowned upon to heal when it's not vital."</i><br/><br/>"I could but you never asked me too; and they already saw me walking normally downstairs." he shrugged carelessly, because the problems that resided in the coven weren't really his to deal with. They'd irritate Raelyn, but hardly end up being the end of the world for her--if it was discovered she healed a wolf; that was barely able to stand.  Roderic at least would thank her; and seek similar assistance for the rest of the pack. Although looking at Raelyn now--it appeared the act of kindness she'd granted him had a cost.<br/><br/>The witch looked rather drained.  Paler than usual, and Lyfe couldn't help but think it might be a rare event to be the recipient of her healing magic.<br/><br/>Perhaps she still cared?<br/><br/><i>"Well, I like to spread out. It's just enough for me to be comfortable.And the spare rooms, hm? You've filled them all up already?There's a sleeping bag in the trunk at the bottom of the bed, feel free to use it." </i><br/><br/>Or perhaps she was playing an intricate game with him to showcase how little she cared anymore. It was hard to tell at this point. The only thing Lyfe was really certain of was that he wasn't going to be a good dog for her and sleep on the damn floor. She turned the lights off with a magical flick of her fingers; and threatened to break his leg again if he came near the bed. That was either an idle threat--or one that held very little value because if she wanted him to have a limp she'd never have healed him in the first place. He stood motionless for a second- debating what his next step was.  She tended to lower her guard when she was sleepy. Perhaps he could coax her into letting him into the bed. Smiling evilly he shifted; limbs contorting as he assumed his wolf form. A rather large snow driven wolf with summer streaks in his fur; that shimmered gold in the sun. He wasn't as bulky as Roderic, but he was certainly just as tall; and his head was easily able to hover over the bed. He crept up to the side Raelyn was laying on and squeezed his cold nose under her arm, begging for attention like any dog would.<br/>He let his tongue rasp against her cheek yearningly, and a pitiful whine escaped him as he peered at her sleepy expression.<br/><br/>Even in wolf form his desire was clear.<br/><br/><i>"Let me in the damn bed with you." <br/>
