They were clearly connected and the snakes were rather bold when Gabriel was asleep, more so the longer that they began to show affection towards each other. He also found that the snakes were rather involved when he offered them the same level of affection, not at all bothered by their presence. If anything, he found it much easier to sleep knowing that they were there keeping watch on everything.
Jack was terrified of getting attached more than he already was. Gabriel had lost his family and Jack had lost his. They didn't have anything other than their lives to lose these days, but if they committed to this, they would have something both worth fighting for but also a risk of losing.
His fingers massaged the back of Gabriel's neck. "Your compatriots weren't satisfied with only a friendship. They say they want more. Never been kissed by snakes before..." he trailed off and sighed. That's exactly what had happened.
