Many times I've written scenarios where PK lays curled up around PV when they're sick or hurt (either physically or emotionally), or simply just bonding and lounging together as wyrms do. Finally decided to draw how I imagine how in the hell he's able to curl up around them with their height difference. The answer: Compress! That! Bug!

Plus, that stretch that cats do, with their legs stretched out and covering their muzzles with their paws? So cute, I imagine PV does that often

ID start: A pencil on paper doodle of the Pale King and The Hollow Knight / Pure Vessel from Hollow Knight. The Hollow Knight is curled up into a tight ball, their arms pressed close to their chest and legs pulled up close to their torso, with one leg tucked under their left arm. They're laying against their father, The Pale King, who lays with his tail curled around them, arms crossed over his chest and glaring at the viewer or somebody just off-screen. End ID.

ID start: A pencil on paper doodle of the Pale King and The Hollow Knight / Pure Vessel from Hollow Knight. The Pure Vessel is stretching while laying on their back, their muzzle pulled in close to their chest with their hands laid on top of it, and their legs outstretched. They're leaning against their father, The Pale King, who lays curled up around them with his head laid on his arms, one of his eyes barely open as he looks at his child. End ID.
