[ Isn't it just? The universe decided to deliver the most holiest (heh) of ironies upon them, gotta enjoy it. ]
Hey now, what's this about being a puppy! I'm not the kind of guy who makes barking noises, just so you know.
But, if I do tricks, I should definitely get praised for them, and a lot of other things too.
[ ...
Axel is absolutely not helping his case here. But, with the other moving to rest into a better position, he can't help but maybe more his arm, perhaps having his fingers to accidentally brush across strands of hair, and then to rest back around the other man again. Kind of like, you know, petting a cat. ]
...Hold on a moment. Since you're considering it a blessing, that means you're heaping on more praise my way after all, right? Well, I won't go ahead and say it's unwarranted.
[ He hears the thank you in there!! Or something like that, given the grin that's still on his face. ]
[ the amused, indulging little hum temenos lets out suggests that he is complete agreement, that yes. axel is not helping his case here, at all. he is a puppy. temenos, as the hound, decides this is fact. (no)
the hairpet is absolutely not rejected. it's nice, and the comfort of the dregs of affection week just means he settles, content. you may continue. cuddling on the couch is allowed.
though, without opening his eyes, in response to that, he says, loftily: ] Well, that is your opinion.
[ BE NICE it's mean teasing as always, though, if the way his smile quirks up a little further in mischief says anything about it. it's just too easy. ]
[ Axel identified as local puppy. What will he do now?
But, excellent, he will just continue to bring his hand back up for more hairpetting, fingers perhaps indulgently stroking slowly, but carefully through strands with ease that Axel has no problem with doing. ]
Hey now, you can try to hide it all you like, but I know my opinion's practically fact right about now.
[ He'll say, easily cheekily responding to the teasing with no shortage of amusement on his end. ]
