[He watches Chainsaw too - she doesn't seem happy, but she doesn't attack the dog, either, which Adam supposes is the best he can hope for right now. Aspen seems to be slowly getting comfortable with the fact of his own existence, and when Ronan reaches out to pet him he nudges his nose against Ronan's fingers, licking his hand, cautiously affectionate.
Adam can't help but smile at the sight, just a little. Of course the dog would adore Ronan as much as his other creations have. That's how it should be. Adam doesn't know if the dog will want to protect them, the way he dreamt it to, but he's not sure he wants that either. If anything, he feels like they ought to protect it. Hadriel is a dangerous place, and Aspen didn't ask to be pulled out here.]
Aspen it is, then. I'll go out tomorrow and see if I can find some food.
[It's still the early hours of the morning, after all, though Adam strongly doubts he'll be able to fall asleep again after that. But then, he didn't think he'd be able to fall asleep in the first place.
He watches Ronan with the dog, relaxing a little now, now that he's sure Ronan is okay and the dog seems all right, too.
He wonders if he should apologize for putting Ronan in that position, for making him take another living creature out of dreams. He doesn't think Ronan wanted to, not really.]

Hey. Is this okay?
