[ he shrugs a shoulder, keeping his gaze on nike as he watches her drop her head against raven. he doesn't think to argue the assumption he hears what he wants. he knows he does — he hears the bad all the time, barely listening when someone has something good to say about him. but he doesn't let that weigh him down as he treads blindly, thinking, maybe, this is a good path to walk along. it's easy and it requires no thinking, even if teasing raven is just a little new. she's always been teasing him with a boom to try and scare him. ]
Do you? [ nike's entire body begins to shift until she's lying on her side, tail moving slowly as he scratches her stomach. he watches her move one of her back legs, but, otherwise, she remains on her side, loving the attention. ]
[ his fingers glide down nike's front leg to press his thumb against her paw. if bellamy's about to step on a landmine, he doesn't notice. that's the downside to being around raven, he gets too comfortable that he doesn't exactly peer down and watch where he steps, forgetting to take note of any upturned earth or uproots ready to trip him. ]
