Turn their head to the side.  The gun in their sleeves almost pulled out but stopped. It was that other shark that was with Mr. Shortfin. "Pardon?"

"You said Mama?" The green-yellow shark stared at them.

"I was talking to myself." Stare right back at them. See them rolled their eyes. Bet their thinking they are a weirdo of some sorts. Oh, well it was not their business since he was eavesdropping. "By the way some Lola talking to your boss."

"Son of a bitch!" Goes to rush down the hallway.

Well, that takes care of that. Glance back at the picture. Stare at the signature at the end. Turn it over to see another signature that was printed, along with the date. Tap their hood for a bit until. Put it inside their coat along with the money in their inventory. Then head on off back to the truck. Double check to make sure everything is good until they get inside. Pull their phone out and call Maria.

"Taken care of."

"How was it?"

"It was fine. No, problems."

"Good."

"I'll be heading back over soon."

"Okay see you then Mox."

Both of them hung up.

Moxxie tap the wheel a few seconds until they shook their head. Start the truck and start driving to get out of here. The drive was a little slower as they went in a different direction that was part of the city. Sort of remember the area when they walked here to cash that raffle ticket.

There was a bit of traffic, stops or letting civilians cross over carrying their shopping bag.

It's crazy seeing this side of Greed that's for shopping, tourist attractions, circus and shows. Then you got another side that is just a war zone of crime.

The wealth hiding the ugly.

Glance at the sky.

May not like the color too much. But it would maybe be a little nice to see what the sky really would have looked like before. Without all the toxins, smug.

Light turns green.

Goes forward to the elevator

Once he made it home gave Maria the envelope and signed papers. Small talk. Then they go to do what they got to do for a while. After that, go to take off the makeup. Keep in contact for now. Then they go back to their room. Sit down on their desk for a bit while their claws tap the wood. Goes to pull out the picture from the inventory box along with another box. Place it down, unlock and open the lid.

A few materials of true importance that Moxxie keeps.

Pick up one of the pictures of them as a baby with their birth mother. Reyna Flor.

Pulls out the other picture. Compared the two. While the black and white one shows she was a little younger. But besides that, they look identical. Who he kidding they are identical. The names. Along with the signature. She had sung there at some point. Somewhere down the line they came along.

Place them down.

Don't get Moxxie wrong. He loves Maria. That will never change.  She is an important figure to them, that was their Madre who raised them. Who took care of them? Who dealt with so many of their troubles?

It just. It is not fair how Reyna was taken away. Just like how Striker lost Susie.

To see another who loves and cares is similar just like Maria.

Shook their head. "Stop it. She would be happy for you."

They at least hope so just with those small memories. Until they remember her fierce protectiveness, smile and laughter.

Put the picture up in the box with the other. Close it shut as they took a steady breath. While these feelings can be complicated it never bothered them when thinking about the other one. The other one being who their biological father could be.

Never could really care to know. Even to this day. Not something they wish to know or care about. What good would be of it now? Maybe because there was no attachment of sort? That could be the case. Prefer it that way.

Ding!

Pick their phone up. Eyes soften as they soon text back.

A few minutes later.

A portal open into a familiar room as Moxxie walks out. Stare at the living room. Walk over to the curtain as they move them a bit along with the blinds.

Well, it was kind of hard to tell if it got worse or not. The neighborhood is the same. Then again it could be worse outside IMP city.

The back of their scarf grabbed. Spun fast until their face pressed against a firm chest.

"You are so lucky you're not a robber."

"If I recall correctly the apartment in my name." Lift their face up to their partner. "So, I think you would be the robber."

"Me? A robber?" Pick them up. "Guilty."

Moxxie snort but wrapped their arms around his neck to hug them. Felt the hugged return back. Relax to hear his tail rattle softly as it wrapped around their own.

It's probably be considered pathetic if anyone saw this. Or if they learn the other keeping track. If only they knew this was a habit from both of them since well teenage years. So, can buzz off as this wasn't new for them. Just miss each other presence being away from the other. So, let them both be greedy.

Striker holds their small partner close. Not letting go. Even as he goes to lay down on the couch. Kept Moxxie right in their arms. Nestle his face in their hair and horns.

While Moxxie face a little heat up. Could blame the scarf and layers. Which would be obvious choice. But it could be also as their pressed close to Striker shirtless chest.

To this day I still can't get over it. Along with their reaction being flushed about it. Of, course, while in space Striker being a jerk sending them pictures. Which would result in him flipping off the snake a lot.

Striker likes to remind them. Also, they are very proud of themselves to get that kind of reaction. That is never old to witness it.

Right now, Moxxie must be in luck to not be teased about it. As their boyfriend is too busy just holding them. Very, very tightly and possessive mind you.

Moxxie kissed his neck to calm him down. That they aren't going to leave right now.

Nope. Should have known better.

The snake grabbed the back of their head. Sharp claws dig into the hair to move their own head. Could have grabbed the ponytail but this will do much better. The other mouth on top of the other in a deep kiss. Neither of the pair separating from the kiss. Only movement just being hands tracing the other. Along with their tails not letting go of the other.

"Not leaving me for a while."

"I'm visiting on my 'break'."

"Well, then your just being cruel to visit and not staying."

The pair now just relaxing after a long over do make-out. Both of them were pleased and content.

"Well, you're on double break now till I'm you go." His hands brushed their hair. A pleased hum just feeling their face against their chest.

"Any trouble out here?" The tail tightly coils up with the other. Must be annoyed to have deal with those wrapping again. Well, they're staying on for the time being.

"Besides the usual. Maybe a few extra explosions than normal. Riots. Annoying siren sounds. Same old. Same old. It worse where the sinners are at in their district." His mind went back just remembering when he was looking around. To avoid and what not to avoid. "There was a power outage but that came back on. Many lost their heads about that."

"Wouldn't survive Wrath."

"It would be pathetic to watch them try to live our life."

"Have you talked with upstairs?"

"Nope and not going to start." See the look. Roll their eyes. "Don't start. The moment you 'return' she is going to hog you to herself. While I'm here with my arms empty and alone."

"I get it. You miss cuddling me like a teddy bear."

"Watch it."

Move to sit up, while still looking down at him, "What you going to do?"

The spiral eyes sharpen staring up at him. Face still calm but watch those eyes twitch. With their scarf loosen can see their mouth twitch. Wanting to smile. To tease them. Let out a chuckle as his body shakes a bit.

Moxxie raised an eyebrow.

"You look too damn adorable."

Pillow to the face.

Moxxie twitch while trying to kill him with the pillow. Even if a flush was showing on their cheek. Another twitch just hearing the laugh against the pillow. "Suffocate."

Push the pillow off their face. Give Moxxie a big grin even as they look away. Another low chuckle as he grabs the ends of the scarve. Pull the small down to lay on him and nuzzle his hair. "Aww Critter come now I'm messing with you."

"Not funny." Mumbled against their chest but kept his eyes up to stare up at him. The scarf lowered down and can see they are giving them a look. Along with a mix of grouchy pout.

"Don't give me that look before I do something I might regret."

"Make me Rattles."

Suddenly Moxxie was on their back. Blink a bit how fast that just happens. Until their gaze on the one trapping them. look many would be terrified. Maybe worried how it will turn out like they are going to be hunted. A predator looking at prey. A foolish look to fall for and could make it leave.

"If you insist Critter."

A touch of that predator was still there but a look that was part of it. Could miss it in a snap if you didn't know the other. Even after the pair grew a bit apart. Then they came right back together again. An underlying sense of affection and longing.

It was a gaze Moxxie cherish.

Moxxie pulled them down into a warm kiss. The other returned it back with a bit of power but kept it at a speed to not be forceful. Hand trailing till they go underneath of the clothes, The pair just enjoying as much time as possible.

Not carrying what is going outside these walls.

~ ~ ~

Done!

What do you all think?

Get to our favorite Critter, Rattles be with the other after being separated for a while. Job reasons on both sides.

Also, here is a fun fact that will blow your mind.

These two already done the deed a few months back. Yes, they bang during the time skipped.

That's right!

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
