[ she blinks, then reaches up to scratch thoughtfully at her cheek fur.

then she plucks at one of the tattered bits of her shirt and looks back at shrike with a short whine. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

...ohhhh. You're going to need another shirt, aren't you.

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ nod nod.

but also just gestures to herself with a shrug. any cover, really. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ well—

...takes off her jacket to drape it over Cypress. there's enough of a size difference between them that it's probably decent coverage for whenever she turns back. ]

No rush to get it back to me—just, whenever's convenient.

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ blinks

then turns her head a bit to snuffle at it, her tail picking up in a quick little wag. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ quirks a half-smile— ]

It suits you.

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ blinks, lifting her head to stare at her for a second, confused??

... then looks down, gently pulling it more securely over her shoulders with her paws, ears settling back and gently whapping the ground behind her. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ moe ]

...should I stay with you? I don't know if talking at you helps at all.

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ she whines, lightly, though her tail doesn't stop.

she does lean in to snuffle softly at Shrike's jaw, though, before licking up her cheek. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ ahaha ]

All right, I'm feeling like that's the former, so...

[ she's just going to fold up and sit down next to Cypress to pat her head lightly. ]

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ a quick, happy wag as shrike settles in, nudging her nose under her chin and happily leaning into her hands. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ time to skritch behind the ears!!! ]

Oh, you're sweet.

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ ,

her foot does that thumpy thing. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ oh in that case she's definitely going to do that more. skritch skritch skritch skritch ]

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ thump thuMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP as she leans more heavily against shrike, happily nuzzling up against her neck ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ baby,,,,,

gently wrapping her arms around cypress's dog shoulders, more skritches more, although she's going to rummage around in her pockets for leftover jerky in case of Griffin Emergency ]

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ sorry too busy to notice food, attention more important ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

[ okok she's just going to skritch with one hand until she can set this bit of jerky on her knee and then just. fluff the dog. ]

You seem like you're getting along all right. I guess being a dog is at least a little relaxing unless you get into a fight?

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ gives a rumbling sort of noise and a snort, leaning into the fluffing and extending her tongue to lick Shrike's cheek again.

being a dog is way easier. ]

Re: shrike

[softlyfalling]

Maybe I should try it sometime.

[ paffe

this is relaxing so she's just going to fuwa fuwa this dog for as long as dog will tolerate. ]

Re: shrike

[vitainmorte]

[ dog will tolerate this a lot.

in face, she slowly just sort of puddles into shrike's lap ]
