Molten and Bryan walked out of Molten's tent slowly, Molten with an annoyed expression and Bryan with a nervous one. Foxy was standing on the other side of the freshly put out campfire, to Bryan, Foxy looked dangerous with the way they were glaring at him with their arms crossed over their chest and the blackish smoke sizzling in front of their face, and it seemed like their eyes were glowing through the smoke. Jon wasn't in sight, meaning he must still be in Foxy's tent, while Lefty was sitting on the ground near the campfire, giving Molten and Bryan an apologetic expression. "Sorry to sound demanding, but you've got a lot to explain," Foxy stated towards Molten, removing their glare from Bryan and staring at Molten hard, but Bryan didn't notice any hint of hatred in Foxy's eyes when they looked at Molten. "I honestly don't know what to tell you, this just sort of-, happened," Molten stated with an annoyed tone as he made a small hand motion towards himself and Bryan. Foxy only gave a slight tilt of their head in response to this, indicating for Molten to continue, and Molten let out a quiet sigh. "I don't think neither one of us planned on this happening, like I said, it just happened," Molten stated with a confused tone, not sure what he was supposed to tell Foxy, and Foxy let out a snort, making it obvious they weren't satisfied with this response. "Fine, whatever. So what now? You two a thing? Or are you just fucking each other for the sake of a one night stand?" Foxy replied with a confused and rude tone, swishing their tail behind their legs, and Molten and Bryan both flinched and tensed up at this question. "First of all, we've been-, like this, for a few days, like-, three or five, I'm not sure exactly how many. Where as the one night stand thing, we haven't even so much as had a make out, you fucking pervert," Molten replied with a loud growl in his throat and he glared at Foxy, and Foxy seemed to falter a bit as Molten got a bit more aggressive. "You didn't answer my question, are you dating or not?" Foxy replied with an unbothered tone, but Bryan could see the slight hesitation in their eyes. "I-, uh-, I-I'm not sure. Bryan?" Molten replied with a confused tone, now he was the one faltering, and Bryan flinched as the question was turned over to him. "I-, uhm-, I don't know. Molten?" Bryan stated, quickly turning the question back over to Molten. "You're a little shit," Molten mumbled with a playfully annoyed tone, quickly earning a smile from Bryan. "Bryan, do you-, would you like to be my boyfriend?" Molten mumbled with a now soft and nervous tone as he slightly rubbed the back of his neck, keeping his voice down enough to avoid the ears of Foxy and Lefty. "I'd love to," Bryan replied with a small smile, speaking with the same soft tone before he nudged Molten's arm with his own, earning a smile from Molten.

"Yea, we're dating, and you know what? I'm fucking happy about it, I'll leave the kingdom for Bryan if I have to," Molten stated to Foxy, speaking with a determined tone, and Bryan couldn't help but smile at Molten's words, but at the same time, he didn't want Molten to leave everything behind just for him. "That's-, I don't know what to say to that. I suppose the only thing I can say is be careful, if this gets out, you two will be beheaded, I think this is a pretty stupid decision, but it's your decision I suppose," Foxy replied with a confused and slightly disappointed tone, before they gave a slight shrug of their shoulders and walked into their own tent. "That went-, better than I expected," Lefty stated with a relieved tone as he stood up. "Yea, kind of odd too, they seemed pretty mad when we first walked out of the tent," Bryan replied with a confused tone and expression, staring at Foxy's tent. "I don't know, let's just forget it, Lefty, go ahead and start packing up," Molten stated with a tired and slightly annoyed tone, rubbing his face for a short moment. Lefty gave a small nod in response before walking into his own tent. "You want me to help you pack your things?" Bryan asked as he turned to Molten with a smile, he wanted to be helpful, and spend as much time with Molten as possible before they leave. "Uh, sure, but you don't have to," Molten replied with a bored tone. "I'm offering because I want to," Bryan replied with the same bright smile, and now spoke with a slightly determined tone. "Alright, come on than," Molten replied with an amused tone and a small smile as he turned and walked into his tent, with Bryan following close behind.

Molten began to fold up his now empty tent as Bryan was putting the tent pegs into the bag the tent came with, Jon still had his hands tied behind his back and was sitting on the ground near where the campfire had been, Molten had threw the leftover sticks and the small rocks in random spots throughout the forest, leaving no trace that someone had ever made camp here, Foxy was packing their weapons, they had already taken down their own tent, while Lefty was struggling to fold his tent correctly. Bryan noticed this of course, and rushed to help Lefty after checking that Molten could fold his own tent himself. "Alright, Foxy, Lefty, you two coming with us or staying?" Molten asked as he shoved his folded tent into the tent bag, and expected for the two to know what he meant. "I'm going with you sir, and we shouldn't leave Lefty behind by himself, so he'll be coming too," Foxy replied with a decisive tone as they slightly squared their shoulders to show that they wouldn't let Molten decide otherwise. "Alright, Bryan, go tell your friend the plan," Molten replied with a slight sigh before ordering Bryan. Bryan gave a small nod and walked over to where Jon was sitting and crouched as he told Jon the idea he had for Jon to get Bryan his cat, and Jon looked both confused and stubborn at first, but Bryan managed to get Jon to agree, which Molten could tell by Bryan smiling and nodding at him once he and Jon stopped talking, so the group of five grabbed their belongings and set off towards the human kingdom, with Foxy keeping an eye on Jon and walking at his shoulder, while Bryan lead the way and talked cheerfully with Lefty, and Molten kept an eye on the group's surroundings.
