Toothless liked that. He nearly purred as Heero scratched him. Huh, so this human was pretty okay too, he decided.

He waited, watching Heero's actions and movements. Heading upstairs? Toothless knew what was up there. He'd been attacked himself but had ultimately gotten out unscathed. He wasn't so sure a soft and squishy human would be able to accomplish the same thing. He was quite sure Duo would be upset again if his friend was eaten by the strange creatures that attacked him.

With that in mind, the dragon snuffled and shook his head before following a comfortable distance behind Heero. In the darkness, he instinctively quieted his breathing and his steps. He almost vanished if it wasn't for the gleam of his eyes in the stray bits of moonlight.
