i was born, on the highway, in a train wreck
with a heart, that was beating, out of my chest
Abathur and Leroy arriving shortly behind him didn't surprise him that much, considering that they were probably suffering from the cold just as much as Crowkey was. Abathur more so than Leroy, of course, since Abathur didn't have the nice thick coat that both he and Leroy possessed. Offering a nod to both of them as they approached, Aurum found himself idly wondering how Leroy was doing at the moment, with the cold. Given his body change, the lion was fairly sure that Leroy's coat was thicker and more healthy, as was the rest of him, so the Captain was pretty sure he was in a far better position than he had been... the thought of a poor still cancerous Leroy having to navigate both his illness and the cold struck Aurum right in the heart, and he found himself frowning for the briefest of moments before shaking it away. None of that mattered now, because Leroy was really back, and everything was going alright, a fact that Kiira seemed to be reminding herself of as well, at the sight of the new General.
Aurum felt a sort of... relief wash over him when Kiira confirmed that he could take some blankets for Crowley, mainly due to the fact that he had been terrified the girl would recoil away from him after what had happened with Astiar. Offering the fox a small smile, Aurum moved forward to grab a couple of the blankets, tilting his head and placing them upon his back, nestled securely between his two large wings. He would bring them back to his cabin in a little while, and draped them over Crowley's bed, as a sort of surprise for the demon. The Captain wasn't sure how much Crowley would like it, but... even if he wouldn't admit it, Aurum had seen him shaking and twitching thanks to the cold, and it felt good to do something nice for the male. Even if it made his insides flip flop a bit, and his heart give a strange twist. Ignoring his conflicted feelings about Crowley, Aurum dipped his head to Kiira and said, quite grateful he didn't have to go searching all over for some nice warm blankets to bring home, "Thank you, Kiira. These will work great, and I'll make sure Crowley says thanks too." His voice had a bit of a teasing lilt to it, and he hoped that he could make it so that Kiira saw him as a source of safety again, even after his vicious attack on the Pittian dragon.
