Avery was in the, surprisingly fully functional, bathroom, with a towel and a shower running. After spending about 10 minutes wrestling Kane and aching all over, he was more than ready when Kane offered to let him use the shower. Apparently Kane never uses the water, and doesn’t pay any bills. According to Kane he built the Cabin, and scavenged all the necessary stuff to make working appliances such as a shower, fridge, and water heater. Kane spoke through the door,

“Oi. I’m gonna have company. If he needs the Shower and you’re still in, I’m gonna drag your ass out!” Kane said. Avery could only hope that’s a joke.

As Avery sat in the Shower, letting the warm water rain down on him, he started to feel better. Much more relaxed and...pretty warm. He expected the water to be lukewarm at best. He closed his eyes for a moment...feeling totally relaxed an-

“OI AVERY!” Kane yelled from another room. “Two Hours long enough for ya? I know you don’t have fur to wash!”

“T-two hours?!” He said to himself, rubbing his eyes. “Crap...I fell asleep…”

Avery quickly washed up and dried off. He put on his, admittedly dirty, clothes and came out of the bathroom. Kane was laying on the couch, while the Leopard he had seen earlier doing his nails...or...claws.

“Slip and fall down the drain?” Kane asked, eating a strip of bacon.

“N-no...I fell asleep…” Avery nervously responded. “I-I haven’t been...um...comfortable in a long time…”

“Hm. Didn’t know you got a pet, Kane.” Beng said, filing his claws. “Though I guess that one doesn’t have much meat on him.”

“Hmm...hey I have an idea~” Kane said. He then whispered something to Beng, where Avery couldn’t hear. “Heeeeey Avery...could you grab something to eat from the cabinets~?”

“O-okay…” Avery responded.

He walked over to open the cabinet, and was suddenly lifted up by Beng, and suplexed into the floor.

“OOPH-” Was all Avery could say for a bit after hitting the floor. “What was that for?!”

Beng smiled a bit and wrapped his legs around Avery’s waist. At the same time, Kane wrapped his legs around Avery’s chest, under his arms...he got the feeling this wasn’t going to end well…

“One…” Beng Said.

“Two…” Kane Said.

“THREE!” They both exclaimed, and pulled using their legs. Avery felt a very sharp pain in his torso, particularly in his spine. It was as if he was being pulled in half.

“AGH! JESUS CHRIST-” Avery exclaimed. “My freaking Spine is gonna tear!”

“Hm...yeah he doesn’t last long at all.” Beng said.

“Maybe if you could pull properly~” Kane said, teasingly.

“Oh you did not just-” Beng said, letting go and tackling Kane.

The two Therians rolled around, wrestling on the floor, while Avery avoided them by climbing up onto the counter. They were kind of viscous when they wrestled. Lots of biting and clawing. Avery was thankful they chose to be relatively gentle with him. Still, they didn’t start bleeding at all, just got kinda bruised and their fur ruffled. They stopped after a while and got up, seeming perfectly fine.

“Hey, we made Ave hide on the counter!” Kane said, chuckling a bit.

“Y-you guys are kind of crazy for me…” Avery said, climbing down. “I didn’t wanna get caught in the middle…”

“Or maybe it’s because…” Kane said, grabbing Avery and nuggied his head. “You’re a WIIIIIMP~!”

“AGH- CUT IT OUT!” Avery said, trying to push his arm away.

Kane stopped, snickering a bit as Avery rubbed his head.

“You’re boring. Whatever, let’s watch TV.” Kane said, dragging Avery by his literal collar.

“Ack- O-okay…” Avery responded, pulling the front of his collar so it wouldn’t choke him.

They spent the rest of the day just eating and watching TV. It wasn’t super pleasant being between two rowdy Therian Boys, especially with their tendency to break into play fighting with him in between them, but at least the Shows were entertaining. That is, until Kane fell asleep on his lap, and he couldn’t move anymore.
