Hades blinked, confused when she started to grab her things. At least until he processed what she said. He let out a small laugh and shook his head. "Tayla. Honey. 'Bicho' means 'bug' in Spanish. I'd never call you that foul word, even if you happened to act like one. You're not a...bitch" He scrunched up his nose and spat out the word, disgusted with himself for even saying it. "Ugh, never make me say that. I dislike that word on so many levels that it's not even funny"
He gave himself a shake, much like a wet dog would, and beckoned Tayla to come to him so that he can pull her into a hug. "You are a lovely guest and Cerberus adores you. I enjoy your company outside of therapist and client settings. You seem like a wonderful friend." As soon as he snag a hold of her wrist, he pulled her close and proceed to basically throw her on the bed for cuddles. He tucked her under his chin and rubbed her back, only to groan when Cerberus flopped on them both.
"...I'm not lying when I say that Cerberus adores you." He wheezed out. "He didn't do this to my older brother for weeks! And he was a tiny puppy back then."

The wave of relief that hit Tayla was only cut by some mild confusion, mixed with a little concern. "Why 'bug?' I don't bug you, do I?" Hades' next words comforted her to no end. She didn't really quite like that he was considering her a friend and that she was considering him one too, she worried that it would just cause problems and she'd end up getting someone hurt but... It was really nice to have people that cared about her. She gave an "oof" as Cerberus made his massive presence known, flopping down onto her and Hades. "Okay buddy, okay. Get off and I'll give you more scritches." Pushing the dog off of her, she brushed herself off and smiled at Hades, continue to get dressed. "So, uh, what's for breakfast? And seriously, what's with "bug?"" Hades Black

Hades grunted and whined in mild pain when Cerberus stepped on him to jump off. He felt his lungs give up on life when Cerberus jumped from his chest and can only lay there to revive his lungs' will to live. "B-bug because you-you're small, admiring, and adored by some, disliked, hated, and wanted dead by others. Y-you sound beautiful and many would think you're a jewel with how bright and...dignified you can sound, but others know that you're poisonous and deadly if threatened. You can be delicate and vulnerable like a blue morpho butterfly or hardy and dangerous like a wasp or a yellow jacket. It's...amazing, honestly. You're an amazing woman, Tayla" Hades babbled, voice raspy and rough with the combination of just waking up and losing air, but ending strong and firm like he always spoke.
"Breakfast's eggs, hash browns, french toast, turkey bacon, and regular sourdough toast if you want that. Oh and some black tea." He grinned. "French toast has chocolate chips in it"

Tayla pretended she was having trouble getting her shirt on to hide the blush on her face. It felt nice to have people actually care about her and worry about her and just generally give a shit about her. She didn't have that a lot in the past, especially the past five years. Not that she felt was genuine. She couldn't feel the blood rushing to her face, but knew she was because she could see her face getting red in the mirror and... Fuck, Hades couldn't see her blush, could he? She finished pulling her shirt on. "I guess I can live with that," she said in a playful tone. "Not the worst thing I've been called. Hell, I call myself worse things on a pretty regular basis." Back to scritching Cerberus. He really helped calm her down a ton. She moved to the door, trusting that both Cerberus and Hades would follow her. "I'm gonna miss this guy when I go home. He's really calming." She stopped at the entrance to the kitchen. "Uh, can I help get things ready at all? I'm not good at cooking, so you don't want me doing that, but..." Hades Black

"We're shelving the 'called myself worse things' comment for a later date" Hades chirped, following her to his kitchen. Cerberus refused to be farther from her hip and was constantly pressed against her during the short trip. "And no, you're fine. You're the guest here. So you sit down, pet Cerberus and eat when I bring the food out."
Hades walked past her, hand on her shoulder so that he knew where she was, before grabbing the cooked and still hot food, setting it on his small table. He went back into the kitchen and grabbed the pot of hot tea and jug of milk and soon came back with a dog food bowl full of food. He waved his hand, bringing the silverware, dishes, and cups to the table, along with various condiments, honey, and creamer for doctoring.
"Don't feed Cerberus. He'll beg if you give him anything from your plate before you're done." Hades warned, placing Cerberus' food bowl down in front of the large dog before sitting down himself. "Ya know...you can always come over and ask to borrow Cerberus. I don't mind. I'm usually home or at work, so it'll be fine if you take him for a few hours."

Tayla never stopped petting Cerberus. She absolutely adored his presence. She never realized how comforting a dog could make her feel. She'd been moving too much, too fast for the past five years at least. She paused at Hades' warning, a piece of bacon halfway off her plate and moving towards Cerberus, and wisely chose to pop it in her own mouth instead. "Oh, oh I couldn't do that. I'm... I'm busy myself, I've got work and my... other activities, I wouldn't know when to borrow him or when I could take him back. I get distracted easy, and I wouldn't want him kept away from you when you need him." She poured herself some tea, putting cream and sugar in it, and then stuck her suited finger in it so she could test the temperature and know when it was cool enough to not damage her. Eating and drinking while not having any feeling in your mouth or any place on your head, really, was always a difficult prospect, and one she had great practice taking great care in executing. "So. Um. Tell me about yourself? I guess? I just... I just realized I don't know a lot about you. You have an amazing dog, you kick ass in costume, and are damn good at just... digging into my soul I guess. whether you realize it or not. Is it all just you in your family or...? Sorry, I'm terrible at this. Always have been." Hades Black
