Yes, they are rather cute, aren't they? *smile* Johnny and Ripp provide each other with a certain balance, since they both tend to veer off into their own extremes. Ophelia rounds out the group nicely, as the peacemaker and general bringer of calm. She, of course, needs them to keep her from becoming too withdrawn and melancholy.

Ripp's sensitive side has made an appearance before, like the night that Ophelia called him over to confide in him as a teen. He is pretty emotional.

Unfortunately, Circe will not likely get any nicer in this case. Poor Nervous. He's getting closer to a way out, though.

I've seen some nice results from Circe/Loki breeding, so it has a lot of potential. And Loki's genes are just crazy, period.
