Cain grinned, chuckling at his lover as they took turns leaning over and peppering light teasing kisses over each other. When Elijah was done, it was Cain's turn to lean in and nuzzle slightly, simply enjoying their love for each other and their opportunity to bask in it in a world that was uninterrupted.

"We can try to build something off the ground, to make it harder for predators... if there are predators. Have you seen signs of any big ones when you went hunting?" Regardless of what this forest had them up against, Cain was doubtless they were the stronger of the two. Even without Elijah's supernatural abilities, Cain himself was a formidable opponent, and when one couldn't die, one simply couldn't lose.

"We'll scavenge and forage tomorrow for vines and other things that we can use. We'll need to sharpen tools too, set up a tanning area, need a place to dispose of wastes... and... and..." Cain hushed when Elijah interrupted his active thoughts with a gentle kiss and the way his fingers played over his chest.

There was his first indication he was no longer in Duplicity, his tattoo was gone, as Elijah had noted. But at the time, Duplicity was his only connection to his love and he had been more worried than elevated at this small celebration. Discovering that Elijah was here, safe with him had been such elation that he hadn't even thought about that silly black mark until now.

He kissed back and sighed, chuckling and knowing his brain was on overdrive thinking about all this. There was so much they had to do, and so much time. He smiled again, knowing they couldn't do it all in one day, or plan it in one night when they were both exhausted.

"Mmmmm. Wearing fur. I always did like fur, and no active environmentalists to tell us otherwise. Or worrying that we can somehow make the world extinct by hunting away all the animals between just the two of us." Cain had those concerns before, back on earth, and hence sometimes did things for the organizations. But here, they could literally do what they wanted and have no one to answer to but themselves.
