private Infiltrator. 1x1 with Unicorncob

[Unicorncob 5,690]

"You should probably rest a bit first," Oliver suggested, frowning as he saw how upset Jenna looked. "You look like you haven't slept well."

He grabbed some water and drank it while waiting for her.

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"I'll rest when I'll feel like I can rest." Jenna stated "I have managed with less sleep than this before." nothing Oliver would say changed her mind on that, so she waited for him to be ready and when he was done drinking, Jenna pointed at the map "We are here." it seemed that they were now lot closer to the center of the city than previously, it was quite a distance to their last location if one assumed Jenna had carried Oliver that whole distance. "Our original plan is out of the window, now that The Order is searching for us and Talon is most likely too, trains, buses, cars and any other obvious way out of here is out of the game." 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver frowned at the implication that Jenna had carried him the entire way, especially on a healing leg. He really wanted her to rest.

"So no public transport," he summarised. "How do we get out of here without them knowing then?"

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"There is no way to leave that would be sure to be unnoticed by them." Jenna stated quite coldly "But there's one way that has a chance to be unnoticed...if everything goes perfectly. Flying." she pointed at what looked like a small natural park some distance away on the map "That's a small forest." she then pointed towards the table, there was lot of things there, notes, sections from the map drawn on separate paper, lot of information that didn't correlate with each other, but there were few specific things that stood out, a weather report, drawing that looked like a from-top-view of a electrical center of some kind, and a actual grenade. 

"This night there will be a thunder storm coming, not a bad one, but enough to make visibility quite low from the ground and from any satellites watching the city." "That though won't necessarily be enough, as we still need to fly over the city, and there's a risk that the lights reflect from my scales due to the limitations of your body forcing us to fly quite low..." "...so we need to cause a blackout..." "...luckily there's electrical center near the forest that's quite vital, and I got some explosives from the Order soldier I killed."

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver nodded slowly. "That makes sense. Cut the power for a while so no one sees us flying out over the city. The clouds will help cover us too."

His eyes widened when he realised something. "Wait, flying? That means..." he looked at Jenna, who no doubt saw the excitement in his eyes.

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

Jenna nodded "Not only will you see my real form, you will be riding on my back." her tone indicated that she wasn't at all surprised by the reaction "I also predict you will be looking away from me with bright red face moments before my transformation."  she then added with a slightly teasing tone "After all, my clothes don't transform with me." 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

"Oh... oh," Oliver muttered, realising what Jenna was getting at, and indeed flushed red. "I mean, I can look away and wait while you get changed."

He rubbed the back of his head. "I don't wanna make you feel uncomfortable."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

Jenna put her hand on Oliver's shoulder "Like I have said before, I couldn't care less if you look at me or not, hay, if it wasn't something you humans required, I most likely wouldn't use clothes at all." she went face to face with Oliver and grinned "I just find your reactions to it quite amusing, and it's cute when you turn red." she booped him on the nose and backed away a bit "But ultimately it's your choice where you look when the time comes, I don't care if you look at me, but I also won't force you to look at me." 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver blushed and backed away a little from Jenna's teasing him. Of course he didn't say anything back about it.

"I just don't wanna be rude," he said, rubbing the back of his head. "You're allowed to have privacy and all."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"I know." Jenna stated "And that's why I hereby give you the permission to freely ignore my privacy." she looked Oliver to the eyes as she said it to make the declaration more serious, the reason she did this was because she felt that Oliver's need to be polite may someday cost them time they don't have or otherwise make things harder than they need to be. "And speaking of privacy, you probably should take a shower while you still can, I don't know when is the next time we have access to one"

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver's blush was fuelled by Jenna's declaring he was free to look at her while changing. While he certainly didn't object, he also didn't want her to feel uncomfortable.

"Well, it'll also help if I keep watch while you change anyway," he pointed out, then grinning. "Besides, it's not like I don't want to look at you naked."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

Jenna patted Oliver's shoulder "You now have my permission, so do with it what you want." she concluded before giving a kiss on his cheek and walking away, she didn't care to continue with the topic, because like she had stated previously, she ultimately didn't care what Oliver would do regarding it. She proceeded to take out a towel from the least damaged closet and hanged it on the bathroom door for Oliver in case he would decide to take a shower after collecting himself. She then, regardless of where Oliver was at the moment, asked with a voice that he would hear "Did you take anything waterproof with you when you packed your bag?"

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver blushed and rubbed his cheek where Jenna kissed him, unable to contain his smile. He always enjoyed when she showed affection.

At her question, he blinked, snapping back to focus. "Oh, um," he muttered, and went through his bag. He never thought about bringing something waterproof. "I think my coat is, why?"

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"You're going to be riding on a dragon in a thunderstorm." Jenna reminded and started going through the destroyed closets "You'll going to get sick or worse if you don't have any protection against the weather." she found a raincoat from one of the closets "Good enough" she then brought it to Oliver "Try this on" it was men's-style raincoat, and it was several sizes bigger than Oliver's size, not a bad thing on a raincoat necessarily. "What about your bag? is it waterproof?"

If Oliver was to pay attention, he would be able to notice that Jenna was staring to look lot more tired than she had seemed previously, though she also was quite visibly trying to hide it.

Oliver tried the coat on, feeling rather comfortable in it. "Yeah, this'll work, thanks. And yeah, I think my bag is waterproof."

He looked at Jenna, noticing she was exhausted. "But we're not going anywhere right now. You need some rest."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"In time" Jenna said rather dismissively, before heading towards the planning table and looking at it, muttering to herself "Am I forgetting something..."  her sudden tiredness had kinda surprised her too, because though she knew exactly what made her tired, it hadn't really bothered her until now, but though she knew she should rest, she didn't feel she could yet, she needed to make sure there was no mistakes this time.....she probably wasn't going to rest if it was left on her to decide...

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver rolled his eyes and walked over to Jenna. "At this rate, you're gonna fall asleep midflight. If you even have the energy to change form, anyway."

He gently put his arms around her. "I've slept long enough, it's your turn now. I'm sure we'll be fine for one more night."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"Day, we're leaving this night.." Jenna pointed out "..and..." she was quiet with a mouth open for a second before closing it, words left her mouth for a moment, Oliver would be able to feel Jenna's body relaxing a bit "I can't, not until this is perfect, I can't allow another failure..." during the sentence Jenna's tone went from her usual self-confidence to sounding almost desperate "...I need to make sure this works..." it wasn't hard to figure out what was going on, it was clear the she blamed herself for what had happened at the house and was now, even if not on purpose, punishing herself by not letting herself to rest.

Oliver held Jenna close and petted her hair, trying to calm her down. "I don't blame you for what happened to me, and I never have. You didn't tell that guy to shoot me, and you've done so much to save my life."

He looked down at her. "You've done so much in general, really. You've definitely earned a rest." He grinned. "Besides, I think it's my turn to keep you safe for once."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

"I brought us into that situation..." Jenna argued, but as much as her mind tried to argue, her body had betrayed her, and her legs started to give away from exhaustion "If only I had planned better..." depending on how tight Oliver was holding her, Jenna would end up either being held up by him, or falling on her knees on the floor, something had caused her lack of energy hit her all at once, and she couldn't even try to hide it anymore. 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver held Jenna close and tight, keeping her upright. He gently lowered her onto what he was sleeping on earlier, sitting with her. "What happened happened, and we avoided the worst thanks to you. It's okay, Jenna."

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

Jenna responded something, but at this point her words were just tired mumbling and thus couldn't be understood. It was clear she was still trying to keep herself awake, but it didn't take long until Jenna was in deep sleep, and though she didn't really seem that relaxed at first, it got better the longer she slept. 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver smiled as he felt Jenna relax and slowly nod off. He kept holding her and petting her, helping her to relax.

He kept an eye out and listened for anything or anyone nearby, but didn't move so to not wake her.

[Catpone Cerberus 23,601]

There was nothing unusual going on anywhere, and besides sounds of cars from outside and doors slamming shut in the stairway now and then, the apartment was quiet. if Oliver decided to move so he could do something at some point, Jenna wouldn't wake up, at worst she would mumble something in her sleep and move her hands to different place. Jenna slept until sometime in the late evening. 

[Unicorncob 5,690]

Oliver carefully laid Jenna down to let her sleep and went around the apartment, making sure everything was okay and flinching at every door slamming outside on the stairway. He kept occasionally looking out the window and taking glances at Jenna to make sure she was sleeping soundly.
