🛀 Rochelle and Khelani give their dog boy a bath asmr
(wow. this is late. lmao.)
To cause such a commotion, he'd say, if he was ever allowed to finish a sentence around here. Khelani was leaning against a half-full bath, glaring at him, and Rochelle was standing over the tap, watching the water fill their murder weapon of choice.
"There absolutely is," Khelani replies with the tone that meant she can't be convinced anymore. "The ends of your hair look crusty."
Which, not true. He'd notice if they were. They'd drag and collect twigs and be generally unpleasant. But he knows better than to argue with a dead-set Khelani. Rochelle gave him a singular look of understanding before turning back to the bath. Coilean sighed. He reached for the top of his robe.
"Not so fast. Just your hair will do. For now," the threat of a full bath enforced on him was plain as day and Coilean really considered just running off into the woods for a week. But then the bath would be even worse. There's no winning here, is there?
Rochelle closed the tap and pointed to a spot on the floor. "Sit down here and drop your hair into the water. We'll take it from there."
"I can wash my own ha-" Thaaaat's another glare. He complied, pulling his mass of hair up, only to drop it into the water. He sat down, his back pressed against the bath.
"The water immediately turned brown," Khelani scowled.
"No it didn't," Coilean replied.
"How do you know? You can't see it."
"I wash my hair often enough so it doesn't get to that point."
"What about that one time we had to drag you out of the woods?" Rochelle decided to betray him. The audacity... he threw her a truly hurt look, to which she just smiled slightly, before leaning down and pouring shampoo into her hand.
"Yes it does. Now shut up, I need to focus," Khelani certainly did not need to focus while washing hair, but he didn't want to be yanked today.
"Can I at least wash the hair on the top of my head alone?"
"No," answered the two people Coilean trusted more than anything in unison. And how could he not smile at that?
