Ivan had by that point, however, fallen asleep. His breathing was loud and rigid, but not was not disruptive nor snoring.

((Time skip))

The birds awoke first and notice gilbert was beginning to awaken and ivan was asleep and in his true form. They knew that would make things end badly and the ones near him started nidging him in a attempt to awaken him

Gilbert groaned softly as consciousness began to come to him

Ivan groaned loudly as he woke. He saw the sunlight peeking in through the cracks, and....

Sunlight?

That means it is morning....

Gilbert will wake soon! Ivan transformed back into his human form, and he sat up, petting the little bird who had nudged him in gratitude. He must've somehow neglected to remain incognito during his sleep; he was not in his true form when he fell asleep... He would have to remember that. He made a mental note as he pet the bird.

The bird chirped softly but most of them still eyed him with distrust... He had been forgiven by some but not yet all of them

Gilbert rose and stretched with a yawn before collapsing back with a sigh. Gott two of his animals.... Gone in a blink of an eye... It was morning now... He had to do something... But what!? He had buried them so the guard would say it was an animals and he needs higher fences. And even if they did acknowledge the incident they would do anything... No one ever does for him because they think hes a freak... So all in all the town way out... He supposed he could talk to his buddies... Then there was also the most likely and most appealing option. Drink so much he cant remember anymore!

Ivan pet the bird softly. Its feathers were so soft, so soothing.
He still felt awful about the night before.
Yet, at the same time, it felt so good to hurt those animals.
He glanced over at Gilbert, who had just awoken.

((To hurt them? Ivan you killed them, they often go hand in hand but there is a difference. XD))

No he cant go to the bar... There were still the other animals that had to be cared for. He slowly dragged himself up and grabbed the gilbirds food... He started to feed them. He left ivan alone... Hed let the man sleep.
He looked terrible... After last night though it was probably normal

Ivan noted Gilbert's haggard demeanor. "Did you have trouble sleeping?" he asked

"Sort of, lets just go with it was a crappy night in general..." He finished feeding the birds and left to do his other chores.

The birds seemingly glared at ivan, they knee it was his fault. They saw it happen

Ivan stood up and followed him. "....Do you need help with anything?" he asked

"Nien". He sighed "ive got it... I need to calm the animals anyway... You should look around town or something... Maybe youll meet a girl or get a job or something nice... Im going to the bar after im done so you can find me there if you need to..."

Ivan sighed. "I can't just go into town alone, though..." he admitted quietly. He wasn't much of a social person, and even if someone approached him for conversation, it was always awkward and one-sided.

"Then do whatever youd like... Like i said after im done ill be at the bar". He left heading to the horses first... With the new foal they need to be calmed first... They the other pigs, they probably had miny heart attacks...

Ivan sulked and followed him. "Can't I just stay here with you?!" he pleaded

"ja i suppose...." he entered the horse barn, making soft noises to coax the still skiddish horses out. he slowly and cautiously approached them going slow as to not startle them "poor things are terrified" he muttered under his breath when he was finally able to get close enough to touch and then comfort the horses. it took him about a half an hour to get them to allow him to get near snowflake who was huddled behind his mother.

Ivan watched the horses, concerned. He looked down at his hands. God, he was a Monster.... Speaking of which, he was surprised Gilbert hadn't noticed what he wrote in blood on the side of the barn. It was in German and everything.... Though it was probably for the best he hadn't.

"there ya go snowflake, your safe now, nothing to be afraid of" he pet the terrified colts nose and it slowly calmed down at his calming tone. The foal nosed at him looking for food now and he chuckled softly "i dont have any of that buddy, youll have to go see mommy for that" he pets its growing mane with a grin.

The two parents stood behind protectively Gilbert back so the Prussian didn't notice, they would not let him near their foal. They were not nearly as forgiving or trusting as the birds and were not risking the young animals life for trust or forgiveness... they protect their child

Ivan sighed and watched the horses. They were much less forgiving than the birds, it seemed. The birds were being too nice to him, anyways. He did not deserve their forgiveness.

He finished comforting them and fed them. next the pigs. He walked to their stall next not yet noticing the writing on the wall. "smokey porkers, its okay... come here. the pigs gradually eased out and went to Gilbert, hiding with him. he pet their back soothingly... they'd need a bath... they had blond on them.... Piggy's blood... Gott what had happened to her? she had been ripped apart, it was horrifying

the pigs spotted Ivan and squealed immediately nosing even more into Gilbert terrified, Piggy's killer was back! Gilbert patted them more "shhh its okay you guys"

Ivan flinched when the pigs squealed at him. Should he back away? Should he just run away? Or should he stay?

It took him another two hours to successfully calm the pigs down. "Ivan can you hand me that sponge over there?" he asked pointing he doubted the pigs would let him up and he needed to wash the blood off of them

Ivan tried to go and grab the sponge, only for the pigs to squeal in disapproval. Ivan flinched and backed away. "....I can't...." he sighed

He looked over confused before having to go back to desperately calming them. "Seriously ivan, i need it just toss it over!"

Ivan flinched, and walked over to the sponge quickly, tossing it over to Gilbert.

He caught it and began to clean the pigs off, there was no need to have them continue being covered in their old friends blood, it wasnt right. when he finished and continued to calm them till he was able to stand and walk off. he quickly fed them efore heading to the goat and calm him to before dodging a swift kick and feeding him with a small chuckle.

Ivan followed him, and flinched when he saw Gilbert nearly get kicked by the goat. What was it thinking?
