[C] The old Master

Tuzik nodded with a little smile.

"Lucifer."

He replied before fussing the pup, he doubted Lyo would know about his Master, he didn't know how religion had spread stories around earth like wildfire.

"Puppy."

Tuzik confirmed, petting him gently as he wrapped an arm around Coilean.

"Get as big as Tuzik."

The pup would be large, that much was already clear, but like Lucifer had said, he wasn't any use to him, he was too affectionate.

"Lucifer?" Lyo repeated in a breath.

The name caused a low growl to erupt from Coilean. Like any exorcist worth his salt, Coilean had learnt a lot about Lucifer over the years.

The thought of Lucifer being here made his stomach churn.

The arm around his shoulders didn't calm the Irishman down much, He was tense and wary now.

Tuzik gave a soft whine as Coilean growled.

Why was he growling for, wasn't he happy?

"Coilean?"

He whined, nuzzling up against the man fondly, he thought everyone would be happy.

He was happy.

His growling quieted when Tuzik nuzzled against him, but he still eyed he pup with a wary expression.

How could he trust something that came from Lucifer?

Lyo stroked the puppy in his lap, wondering just how something so cute had come from Lucifer.

Wasn't Lucifer supposed to be the ultimate evil?

"Why mad?"

He asked, his hands stroking through Coilean's hair, giving it a gently tug.

The hound seemed a little disappointed.

What they were forgetting, what the markings on his chest meant, was that he was something that came from Lucifer.

Lucifer had raised him since he was a pup smaller than this one, they trusted him.

Prejudice was a strong thing. It was something that Lyo could stop in its tracks pretty quickly. He soon found hismelf petting the puppy with a smile on his face.

Coilean, however, was a little more strong-willed. Even his puppy nature wasn't helping much.

Lucifer's name was just too big of a name for him to ignore.

He leaned forwards and sniffed at the puppy, though.

He smiled as Lyo seemed to accept the pup, but it was Coilean that he was more worried about.

His hand moved to stroke over Coilean's flat stomach.

"Can't have pups."

Tuzik murmured, pursing his lips a little before looking at the puppy.

"...family."

He wanted pups with Coilean, this was the closest they would ever get.

Coilean gave a little huff.

He'd done the having children thing before and that hadn't gone down too well at all. He hardly ever saw his daughter and there was a big rift between them.

Could he do it again and actually do it right?

He sniffed at the pup again.

Tuzik shifted nervously where he sat, resting his head on Lyo's leg.

He wanted a puppy so badly and it only occurred to him now that Coilean might reject it.

He had no idea what he was going to do if that happened.

He was hesitant as he nudged the pup's cheek with his nose.

The pup yawned and nuzzled against Lyo's leg, giving a little puppy-whine.

Coilean had to admit that it was cute.

He was worried, if Coilean really wanted to he could attack the sleepy pup.

Regardless of his training, he was instinctively protective of the pup.

His hand moved to stroke Coilean's thigh softly, he didn't want to influence the man's decision but at the same time he didn't want to lose Coilean or the pup.

after a little bit of prodding and nuzzling, Coilean just sat back to watch the pup.

It would take a while for him to properly accept the pup and get used to the idea of being a parent figure again.

It'd be a slow process, but wary look in his eyes said that he'd at least give it a try.

Tuzik gave a little smile, feeling a little guilty for suddenly dumping is on them.

Leaning up and cuddled and nuzzled against Coilean, lapping his tongue against the man's neck and cheek.

He wanted to make sure the Lycan wasn't mad at him.

Coilean nuzzled back against Tuzik.

He wasn't mad. Just a little shocked and nervous to some degree. Suddenly having a puppy wasn't something he had expected when he came over last night.

He lifted his hand to stroke Coilean's cheek before pressing a kiss to the man's lips.

At the very least, they probably saved this pup's life, a gentle soul wasn't one that was going to survive a hellhound's lifestyle.

He returned the kiss then pulled back with a little smile.

Coilean moved to lay out in front of the fire again adn motioned for Tuzik to join him.

A littel cuddling would be nice about now.

The pup was asleep in Lyo's lap, safe and warm so when Coilean beckoned him over he curled in against the man eagerly.

He gave a happy whine and nuzzled in close, enjoying the heat of the fire against his skin and the feeling of his lover up against him.

Lyo just watched the two cuddle silently for a while before his gaze dropped to the puppy.

"I need a bigger room," he grumbled to himself.

His life was starting to look pretty packed with the new addition of a puppy. His room was large, but when the puppy started growing, it would soon seem a lot smaller.

The pup yawned and looked up at Lyo as he grumbled, his little paws stretching out and resting on the man's arm as he curled in closer.

It was a strangle looking collection of people in Lyo's life at the moment, well, people and canines.

Lyo shook his head as the puppy looke up at him.

He hugged the pup closer and leaned down to nuzzle into his soft fur. It'd be nice to have a puppy around again.

Even if the amount of money he'd spend on shoes from now on would increase exponentially.

The pup gave a soft whine as Lyo nuzzled closer, his little pink tongue lapping out over the man's ear and face.

If allowed to he'd lick the man non-stop.

His out of proportion paws swatted playfully at the man's long hair, batting at it.

Lyo laughed.

He was more than happy to run his fingers over the pup's ribs and flick his hair for the pup to play with.

He hadn't had a puppy since Ostanki. It had been a long while and he missed have a little affectionate puppy to play with.

This would be good for him,

Now that he was awake, he wanted to play, though his movements were a little groggy and clumsy.

He wiggled and writhed happily as his stomach was scratched.

His paws batted at the hair, occasionally accidentally booping Alyosha's chin or face when he missed the swinging locks.

He laughed as his chin was batted.

He just knew the Hellhound's paws were strong and they'd leave a couple bruises on his tattooed face.

Not that a bruise or two ahd ever worried him.

"Careful," he chuckled, toying with the pup's tail; encouraging him to spin around and play with it.

The pup have a soft yap as Lyo spoke, his flailing limbs pausing as soon as his tail was grabbed and wiggled.

Immediately he went for it, barreling over himself in an attempt to flip forward enough to latch onto it.

He managed it, the tip of his tail caught in his front teeth.

He gave a growl and shook his head, tugging at it.
