You have a new little companion to help you lead the way.

[Mary leans forward so that her hair acts much like a curtain for her face. His fingers catch in a small tangle, but she doesn't seem to mind it.]

Yes, sleep does sound nice.

[Sorry JC, no more Mary-lap for your pillow. She moves to where she was earlier - parallel to him only this time she puts her head to the crook of his neck and shoulder.]

If that is what Andrew wants, we need all the sleep we can get.

[Walking was quite tiring.]

[He can't help but laugh and nod. Some of them really could be task masters, but they all were needed, each and every one had a personality and the talent that would carry them through to the end. Even Mary. Maybe Mary more than most. He stretched out on top of the sleeping bag, cat making a low, squeaking yawn at it settled down too. As soon as Mary curled against him, he wrapped an arm around her, played with the feathers in her hair. It was calming.

And neither would notice the kitten sneaking out.]

[A woman against his side and a kitten curled up on his chest. The fingers toying with her hair and feathers just soothes her more until she falls prey to sleep against him. It's by far one of the easiest sleeps she's fallen into in some time. Mary hardly moves throughout the night, even when the kitten sneaks out to go visit a certain other person in the camp.

In fact, Mary is so comfortable that even as the sun peeks over the horizon, she's still dozing against Jesus. No, she doesn't want to get up.]

[When Judas couldn't stand it anymore, he finally went to Mary's tent, fingers clenched at his side in one hand, a furry brat as much as Jesus was in the other arm, he snaps towards the tent entrance.]

JC! Get your furry rodent!

Judas...?

[No, the person against him was still Mary, meaning his friend was outside doing the yelling. He lifted his head, and his voice.]

I don't have a rodent!

[Definitely Mary, though now she startled awake at Judas' yelling outside of her tent. How rude. Sitting up and pushing the sleeping bag tangled around her feet aside, she unzipped the opening to look up at Judas with a very unimpressed face.]

What do you want, shouting at this too-early hour, Judas?

[No, this is why nice things are rare. Leave it to Judas to muck things up.]

[At least she had her clothing on. Judas can't even begin to explain why seeing her makes him so angry right now, but he looks hard at her.]

...Miryam.

[The little black cat in his arms lifts her head and mewls towards Mary. She recognizes this lady!]

[Why wouldn't she have her clothing on? Just what did you expect? Jesus would be a little disturbed and a whole lot more offended than he already was if he knew.]

Miryam!

[Jesus just sits up and holds his hands out because.... Uh. Morning laziness?]

[Look angry all you want - you don't seem to know any other emotions outside of 'hurt' and 'angry'. She doesn't really care as Miryam pops up and meows. Mary reaches over and takes the kitten from Judas - she's better company anyways - to scratch it between the ears.]

Seems we had an escapee last night then, JC.

[Mary's amused, and gently hands over the kitten to their 'leader'.]

[He knows plenty of emotions outside of those - just not at you. He is surprisingly gentle making sure Miryam gets transferred over into Mary's arms before he crosses his arms.]

I woke up with her in my hair.

[That just makes Jesus laugh and he takes the cat from Mary to nuzzle against her dark fur.]

Did you find Judas? Yeah? Was he a more comfortable bed to snuggle?

[Jesus was too cute. And that was a problem!]

[Maybe they should've gotten a second furry friend, because Mary already wants to take the small creature back and continue scratching behind her ears. For now, she let's JC do it, since both were rather adorable together (not that JC knew any other mode anyways).]

She slipped out sometime during the night then. At least all she did was sleep in your hair, rather than chew and eat it.

[They didn't need Miryam getting hairballs from someone else's hair.]

[Mary might catch Judas' expression softening as he watches his friend, for just a moment, then it goes back to a glare as he glances to Mary.]

She wouldn't be coming back here if she had eaten my hair.

[They're toxic to be together. He just can't understand why Jesus wants Mary around.

So he'll look back to JC.]

Remember the protest at the courts this morning.

[And he's going to head out and find breakfast rather than get his mood even more sour.]

[One thing no one had to worry about was Jesus' involvement. He blinked in confusion up at Judas and handed Mary back the kitten. He didn't like it when Judas was mad and it was so very obvious that he was mad.]

Hey Judas. Come in a moment. Let's speak.

[What's mine is yours and yours is mine...? Not his tent but hey.]

[Hey, she didn't say Judas could come in. He can just hang out at the tent flaps, okay? No, Mary would let Judas in if JC at least asked because while the other man frustrated her and didn't even want her there, she respected JC enough to not turn him away.

She takes Miryam with a slight face and sits back with her legs folded underneath her.] I hope you're not wanting us to apologize for Miryam getting out. It was obviously an accident.

[Judas would probably find a way to blame her, though.]

[He and Mary end up on the same end of the spectrum, just a million miles apart, with Jesus at the pinnacle. The perfect triangle. Judas shifts his weight before his teeth slide across part of his bottom lip to catch it, chew, before he ducks down and sits at the entrance, at least polite enough to keep his boots outside.]

Cats have their own way of getting out no matter what you do. Part of why I said I didn't think this would work. [Yet his words aren't actually venomous, more just long suffering.

But he looks to Jesus with a raised brow, wondering why the other asked him to stay.]

[Jesus had been wary for a moment at the bickering but Judas was staying and that was all that Jesus had wanted. He had no idea why the pair didn't get along. They were more alike than either knew but it was not his place at all to figure it out. And tell them.]

I'll be more careful with her. Did anyone scout it out yet, though? I don't mind the media being there but... It makes everyone so anxious.

[Why not include Mary in business matters? She's important to him!]

[Mary busies herself by cleaning up the sleeping bags in the tent, rolling hers up first, followed by JC's. There's not much in terms of possesions - all of her things are small enough to keep in the bag she keeps at her side. A few changes of clothes, makeup, little trinkets.

She slides JC's wrapped up bag to his side and finishes getting her own things together, not thinking that she's actually being included in the business talks. Judas usually makes sure they're done well away from her.]

[It isn't her business. She's been with them only a very short time, after all. They didn't discuss their plans with every follower that JC came in contact with, after all, yet there is Mary.

His eyes flicker over to her, then away.]

No one's reported anything, yet, but we've kept this one much more local.

[Jesus was really starting to dislike the factions. There was no reason for dissension, no reason for Judas and Mary not to like each other. Jesus wanted desperately for them to, though that was selfish. They were his two favorite people in the world.]

Good. I don't think Matt really has it in him to stop the constant Twitter feed but... I like the smaller groups.

[The kitten mewled for attention in the cutest of ways and Jesus gave right in.]

How about the three of is go to find breakfast?

[If only they spent enough time together, they'd like each other right?]

[When Judas glances over to her, there's a hard look but nothing more for now. It seemed they both knew better than to quarrel when JC was around.

Finished with the cleaning up, Mary takes a seat in the middle of her tent and watches both men... and then JC offers up going to breakfast. That sounded good. The last time Mary ate, when she thought about it, was sometime before she and JC when to get Miryam.]

Breakfast sounds good.

[Just deal with it, for JC's sake. For now.]

...Yeah. Breakfast. Sure. Let me get ready.

[He hauls himself up, he had come straight from waking up practically, and moves for the tent flap.]

See you in ten.

[Someone's excited. Not Miryam, who had been dumped off on poor Peter with the promise of a McDonald's sandwich if it was in the budget or a convenience store equivalent if not. But spending time with his two favourite people? That's rare.]

How much are we allotted today?

[He's holding Mary's hand. Judas never wants to hold hands. ]

[Mary cleans up as best as she can while JC takes Miryam to Peter. Some fresher make up, a cleaner white dress. She finds JC easily after that, and together they go off to find Judas with hands interlocked.]

Where are we going for breakfast?

[Mary wants pancakes!]

[Peter might make a few noises to embarrass Simon when he receives Miryam and instantly starts crooning to her with a smile on his lips. Someone's in love.

Judas rubs the back of his neck, shifting fingers under the scarf, as he thinks.]

...Let's keep it under ten, if we can. [Mutters, knowing it would be enough if they found a decent place that served breakfast.]
