Lucas chuckled to himself, as Reese’s licked his face, and gently cradled the puppy in his arms, smiling amusedly as the pup wagged his tail, [color=seagreen]”Ah, well. I’ll clean the pup up, then see about helping you clean up, Ajax”[/color] He said, shifting to wrap the dog in his shirt, folding it around Reese, even as he still wore it. His good mood was ripped away, in the space of a few seconds, as Virgil entered, narrowing his eyes with distrust to Angela’s cousin. Lucas didn’t particularly like Virigl, nor did he trust him. Something he was sure that Virgil knew about, yet Lucas couldn’t speak out against the man, with Angela letting him have another chance. 

He said, frowning as he watched Angela try to coax Genji to eat. He watched as she pressed herself against Genji, managing, although he didn’t know how, to keep his expression neutral. He turned slightly, lowering his gaze to the pup in his arms. He didn’t really know why the sight of Angela trying to entice Genji to eat like that was unnerving to him, but it was. He knew she was only doing it to make sure that Genji ate, that the man wasn’t going to end up killing himself through lack of nutrition, yet it bothered Lucas all the same, and he shifted a little uneasily. 

[color=seagreen]”I’ll just go and clean this little one right up and then be right back, if you still wish to talk”[/color] He said, his tone a little shaky, although he knew no one would really notice, as he clicked his fingers, Remus falling in by his side, giving the wolf pup a slight nudge with his snout before doing so. Taking Resees to get cleaned up, he filled a bath tub with water, adding in some pet friendly bath soap, and setting the pup in the water, Remus sitting outside the tub, as if to guard Reese’s and make sure that the younger dog wasn’t going to try and escape, as Lucas grabbed a few things, turning back to wash the pup off, before cleaning him, letting his own thoughts wonder. 

Lucas had known Angela essentially his entire life. She was family, certainly, so why should it have troubled him so much? As he scrubbed Reese clean, Lucas tried to push the scene fron his mind, instead trying to focus on the wriggling pup. He didn’t know what he could do. He normally talked things through with Angela...but if Angela was the reason for this troubling thoughts, who could he go to? He didn’t really want to trouble his sisters. He sighed, and bowed his head a moment. 

There were times when Lucas wished he had his father. Or anyone he could look up to that was a [i]parent[/i] figure. Not that he had ever scored well in that department. He didn’t know what to do, as he splashed water on Reese to rinse his coat, leaning against the tub. He’d get through it, just like he did everything. 

He soon returned with the wet pup, bundled in a towel, to the kitchen, rubbing him as he walked, and handing the pup to Ajax once more
