[ The apartment is large and spacious, almost empty and unlived in, if not for the dog bowls in the kitchen, and a few little dog toys lying on the living room floor. Just as Kakashi closes the door and toes off his shoes, Pakkun comes trotting out of Kakashi's bedroom, barking a bit when he recognizes Iruka. He's followed by Akino and Bisuke, who each bark and wag their tails as they come up and sniff at Iruka.

Perhaps a touch worriedly. ]

Mm, it's just me and my pack.

[ Kakashi ushers Iruka in past the entrance, towards the couch. ]

Go take a seat. I'll get you some more blankets and put the kettle on for tea.

[ He'll also take the time to fill a basin with hot water for Iruka to soak his feet in. ]
