It was the night after a mission, Graves and a handful of his Shadow soldiers were all still up. It was either the soldiers being too hyper or refusing sleep, only a couple actually being tame, so Graves had another idea.

"Settle down, you bunch of kids.." He mumbled out to himself as he took a seat on the couch. He popped on a random Pixar movie, kicking his feet up. The soldiers slowly stopped what they were doing and decided to watch as well.

It was about halfway into the movie that the Shadows were climbed onto Graves in a dog pile for cuddles. He didn't mind. He was only confused that he hadn't noticed it at first. He set his hand on a head on his lap, absentmindedly giving his soldier attention.
