She headbutted his shoulder in exchange for his loving brush against her chin and he smiled. "Teamwork, indeed," he reiterated back.
The canine stiffened up as the cabbit's paws made contact with his back. She was ice cold. Hopefully, his body heat was of assistance. He only loosened up again when she draped over his shoulder and relaxed herself. Montgomery pushed up from the floor with a huff and wavered on four paws momentarily before heading out towards the direction of camp.
He peered over at Mae. Rather than nodding in agreement and risking any extra movement that would knock his wife off his back, he offered a grin. "You're right." Originally, he planned for them to meet in camp and eat there, but her insight made him change his mind. "We'll go home instead." The archon hoped Lucia would not protest to that, but her health was priority here and she should have every right to call the shots. "You are all free to join us for dinner if you desire." Montgomery thought it would be less trouble to have everyone gather in one spot and have Lucia rest in her nest while they cooked. A win for everyone.
If they followed after, so be it. In time, they would arrive at Montgomery's home. The archon pushed through first and lowered his body to the floor so he could crawl through the tunnel with Lucia on his back. When at the end, he barked for them to follow and held the second door open with his backside. The rest would be met with the sights of their home upon coming through. Their place was quite simple. It was nothing out of the ordinary for the Congregants, being lined in a wide variety of pelts to keep them warm. Even so, the house had it's charm. Besides their personal knick-knacks, Lucia had a pile of netting and swim gear for herself in one corner, while Montgomery had out of commission windchimes for repair in another. Together, they shared a space to cook that was hooked to the air vent at the top, but the archon was it's main user. They would be making use of it today.
Once everyone was inside, he maneuvered over towards their pile of pelts and lowered to the floor once again to let the cabbit down. He shimmed his back a bit, encouraging her to get off with a soft smile. "Rest a bit while we prepare the food," the canine pleaded.
