Something Unsuspected

Cerberus wasn't really a light sleeper but not a heavy one either, so when Ruse joined him at his side he wasn't immediately aware. He hadn't been asleep long, so it was like somewhere in that dark, blank part of his thoughts he could feel where they were close together. And soon his mind would show him that wasn't just a feeling lost in his thoughts. He took a strong breath in and out still in that half slumber zone, but he could catch his sister's scent easily in his nose.

He didn't jump up in too much of a panic, but his body still rolled more up on his stomach and towards her once he realized she was here in his den. "Are you alright?" Was his first instinct to respond to her. There was that little bit of worry and awareness in his tone, but again he wasn't in a full panic for why she was here. He was after all familiar with the way she was feeling. He just didn't know that's what it was just yet. His paw had also reached out to gently set along the side of her back out of instinct, in a way ready to jump up for anything she or the pack needed.
