After wiping his own feet, Alex cautiously entered the small cabin. He was a bit surprised at how cozy and rather homey it seemed, but was also rather grateful. If he and Hitsugi were going to be spending their time there, it was a good thing the space was comfortable. Alex then decided to take a bit of a closer look around the large room. He glanced into the fridge and cupboards, finding only a few small cans of food that thankfully hadn't expired. That done, he ran the sink, and was glad to find that the water worked well, and actually tasted pretty good. The generator was switched off, so after making sure it was on, hte young man was glad to find that he and his friend even had power.

"Wow. I'll admit, this seems pretty well put together for a hunting lodge in the middle of nowhere." Alex commented as he moved to lay down tiredly beside Hitsugi with a sharp exhale of relief. In a rather quick moment however, he noticed the odd curve that his companion's lower belly had taken to it. Not only that, as he sniffed the air, Alex noticed that Hitsugi smelled...different somehow. Moreso than he had before. "Um. I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but are you feeling alright?" Alex sat up looking defensive. "I mean, clearly given everything that's happened...even I'm not feeling alright. It's just...there's something else...different about you."
