Diablo has been sleeping too, in his bed in the back of the room, blending into the shadows in the dark room like his namesake, or something. But now there's a new person, and so there is a black lab puppy coming to lean up onto the bed and sniff curiously at feet and maybe lick an ankle just a little bit. ]
