[he shifts to lean against the back of the bed better, then goes back to petting and scratching his back]

You can enjoy it too, ya know.

[doggonemad]

S'fuckin' weird.

[throughbamboo]

Well yeah, but ya don't gotta focus on it.

[doggonemad]

No?

[throughbamboo]

Mmm. Know it's easier ta say than do, but it ain't bad or nothin' ta like some of it.

[doggonemad]

Hahhh. Ya know me too well.

[throughbamboo]

Damn right I do.

It don't leave this room, bro.

[doggonemad]

[ curls up a bit against him. ]

[throughbamboo]

[hugs him a little closer with the arm not rubbing his back]

Nothin' we do in here does. Ain't no one's business but ours.

[doggonemad]

've been so wrapped up in public appearances for so goddamn long.

[throughbamboo]

. . . mmm, I know. N' I know ya gotta be, s'important to ya. What'd ya say to me once - "we all got parts ta play"?

[doggonemad]

Yeah. Take off a mask, there's another mask.

[throughbamboo]

[a noise of agreement]

We all got masks.

Ya only ever gotta be yourself with me, Hannya. But if ya feel like ya need to wear one of those masks with me, s'fine too. I'll care 'bout ya no matter what. N' I'll remind ya as many times as ya need me to.

[doggonemad]

[ grunts. ]

I don't wanna wear a mask with ya.

[throughbamboo]

[squeezes his arm around him]

Said if ya gotta, then ya gotta. That don't mean I won't try ta help ya take it off.

[doggonemad]

. . . yeah. Okay.

[throughbamboo]

Okay.

[leans down just enough to kiss the top of his snout, because fuck you wolf effect]

[doggonemad]

[ okay. smiles a bit at that. ]

[throughbamboo]

[starts petting his back again]

That's better.

[doggonemad]

[ slowly, slooooowly relaxes against him. ]

[throughbamboo]

[he smiles a little, relaxing some more himself]

. . . really are kind of a furnace like that.

[doggonemad]

Now ya know how it feels.

[throughbamboo]

S'not bad. Bet it'd be even nicer if it was cold out.

[doggonemad]

Eh, ya win some, ya lose some.

[throughbamboo]

Yeah, but it's still nice like this too. I wouldn't complain even if it was hot as hell, either.
