Admin Mawile: (*´・v・)
Subaru:
-“What a good boy,” you murmured, softly pressing against tense muscle.
Yard work, while difficult, was proving to be the best thing to ever happen to Subaru’s temper. The heavy labor (of course, safe) was easing his outbursts, leaving him much too happy-tired to lash out.
In fact, the only downside yet was a sore, tired body, and just gentle rubbing at his shoulders and back seemed to fix that just fine.
Subaru whined, too exhausted to do anything but lean into your touch.
It was nice to see him without every defense up, for once, and even better to know that your guidance was the cause of it.
Yuuma:
-Larger, stronger pets were typically worked until they broke.
You were learning that that idea was entirely wrong. To give him time to recover from a life of exactly that, you’d been keeping Yuuma as a house pet, and the vampire was turning out to be quite the gentle giant.
From his seat beside your chair, Yuuma nuzzled again the hand gently running through his hair.
And this was from a pet expected to be too dangerous to keep indoors.
You continued to pet him, delighted that you’d been able to give such a wonderful creature another chance at a happy life.
