"That's exactly what we're doing, Nicole." Arnold smiled, still holding Nina up in his arms, her feet dangling midair, "I'm holding her and she's holding me, so technically, we have a hold over ourselves."
Ever since starting the hunt, Arnold had been practically living with Nina for all sense and purposes. Now he only went to the base to check over things while leaving Allen and Talos, along with a third of his summons to deal with the problems shall there arise some.
He either spent the rest of his time hunting monsters in the swamp along with Nina or spend whatever time he had with her and Nicole like he was doing now. He was subconsciously trying his best to make up for the time he had lost while he was in a 'coma' and having his summons was a big help for him.
