The cage had held, thanks to Michael's last-minute ingenuity and some industrial chains Aaron had found in the hardware store. They were heavier now, exhausted as he was thanks to the transformation (and spending the night fighting with it as he always did). But he bore it well enough, awkwardly sliding into the jeans he'd set aside, just in time to hear Mika's footsteps.

Aaron's nose was keener than a human's, but weaker in this form than Mika's likely, but he sniffed at the air all the same, in perhaps a throwback to the wolf's instincts, offering a greeting in a quavery voice.

"Morning, Mika..." He rubbed at his eyes, sitting up on his knees, leaning against the bars, offering her a small smile as she came into view.

"Did you sleep at all...?"

"I did, but Rubi was all for coming down and blasting holes in whatever made the noise." She smiled awkwardly, her ears cocking back. "I tried to persuade her otherwise. I should've brought you a blanket or something, huh?" She tsked, that would definitely be something she'd have to remember next time. Pulling out her assorted bounty that she'd pilfered from the garden, she offered it to Aaron through the bars.

Aaron scooted away from the door, kicking one of the overlarge chains away, offering her a contrite smile. He didn't mention how unsettled the thought of someone blasting a hole into his prison made him, but then again he didn't feel he needed to.

"I...did my best to get as far as possible while still waking up somewhere...you know safe." Not that anywhere in the apartments was completely safe, but Aaron had at least strung some of his remaining red tape over the bars to create a rather...colorful mini-prison.

"Jeeze, you braved the scarecrow thing?" he added in a hushed whisper, resting his cheek to the bar, staring up at her with large blue eyes.

"Wow...thanks a lot..."

"I know you did, babe." Mika made a face as she sat by the bars, her knees making a horrible series of cracking sounds. She was not getting any younger. "You and Angeal came up with a good setup
