There was one excitable puppy running towards a young man, bouncing and yipping at his heels. There was one haughty black cat, slinking through the open door to the Homestead and miaowing a soft warning at his human. And there was one teenage girl, her face covered in fading bruises and scratches lying beneath a set of blankets and dozing softly. She dreamt of dark girls and darker deaths and terrible things and it was only Cat, leaping onto her, that woke her up and startled her.

"What? Oh, what are you doing hey fusspuss? See, I'm okay you need to stop worrying silly Cat. Were you worrying?" Coraline asked curiously, tickling Cat beneath his chin and wrapping her arms loosely around him before hugging him. Listening to his soft miaow, Coraline looked up at the warning and listened out for the excitable bark of Bobo. Staring at the door curiously, Coraline waved at the familiar sight of Percy and made a face at him. "What are you doing here?"

Comments

At her comment about my being an idiot, I couldn't help but grin. "So I've been told. So I've been told." I accepted her hug and touched my forehead to hers, gently. Then I pulled back. "And I'm really glad you're not dead."

Coraline wrapped her arms a little tighter around Percy, smiling at him when he pressed his forehead against hers. Scrunching her face up she smiled at him before turning her head slightly to one side, leaning forward she brushed a kiss against his cheek before burying her head against his neck. Hugging him tightly, Coraline enjoyed simply hugging her best friend for a moment before pulling back.

"Definitely not dead. Besides if I was dead, you'd probably have to come and rescue Hades from me." Coraline said. Because it was clear if Coraline was ever to die the Lord of the Underwold would probably be getting a whole lot of trouble on his hand and need rescuing more than Coraline ever would.
