— sett, komano manato, arataki itto, varka, & your favs <3

maybe he doesn't even have a pair of ears and tail to suffice—but that doesn't stop him from enjoying scratches all the same.

All it takes is the soft soothe of your hands to knock him right down a few notches. He could be feeling boastful or even snarky in his appeals that day, but you've learned that there's a little "reset button" tucked right behind his ears.

It's not a front he likes to show around their peers; in fact, it's quite embarrassing the way he gets. Protests melt right into rumbling mumbles when you comb your nails through his silky hair, and he turns into putty in your hold. When he's bold enough, he'll lean his nose right into the crook of your neck, expecting you to move your hands in that magical way. His favorite is knowing his heavy weight—he'll sprawl himself right on top of you so you have no choice but to abide! He tucks his face into your chest, unable to comprehend any of your words with the way you're playing with his hair. You gently brush your fingers along and up the nape of his neck, and it sends warm tingles right down his spine.
