Chapter Text
eyes half-lidded, leona lounged on the savanaclaw dorm couch, knowing full well that no one would disturb him. the rain outside, mimicing the natural cycle of the sunset savannah, pitter-pattered gently on the sand, and when leona inhaled, he could feel it thrum in his veins, but oh, how it made him sleepier than usual.
"hi." he heard behind him, and there you stood, soft and sweet with a little basket of food (he didn't have to try. you always brought food) by your side. "you look sleepy." leona knew you didn't really expect a response, but he shifted to make room for you on the couch nonetheless.
"'s just the rain." leona mutters, gracefully accepting whatever you brought him, and he turns his nose just a little at the smell of vegetables. but he knew better than to complain, when you could easily convince floyd to cook something beyond the mostro lounge's repertoire, and so he stuffed it in his mouth, chewing tentatively for dramatics.
"i know. i get sleepy too, when it rains. lazy." you agree, chewing on your own share before tucking the lunch box away into your bag before pulling out a bottle of iced tea. "tea?" leona raises an eyebrow but takes it anyway, opening the bottle with a resounding pop before chugging the contents as you sip your own.
"why?" you didn't need the rest of the question.
"it's just nice to sit with someone." leona doesn't object, and instead slings a heavy arm on your shoulders. you don't mind the weight.
