Well! He’ll have you know, his snout doesn’t un-hmmph that easily! You have done him a grave and terrible insult, Yuki. Your wickedness has wounded the heart of a precious, innocent, floofy foxy fellow, and it will take more than just sweet words to make this right!

Now, if could you just-yes, ohhhh, yes, nice and cozy and snug with that tail. And he’ll just, with a wiggle, and a scoot, get himself properly nestled on your lap. Tails go, yes, mmmmmmm, yes, you are the [i]perfect[/i] size for a pair of soft, fluffy tails to wrap around. You may start brushing them at any time. Or maybe some scritchies? You know, not a single soul has ever scritchied him, ever?

What was he saying? Oh! Right! He is [i]very[/i] cross with you, and can remain very cross with you, even when preening and proud and (really!!!) pretty and purring. Yeah, that’s right! Foxboys can purr! Just you watch! And also listen!

You ask Hazel? 

You ask sweet, pure, innocent little Hazel?

“[i]I[/i] surely don’t have any ideas.”

A glance is shared - shared most generously - between all foxes able to use their words.

“But I know someone who will~”

Why are we looking at you like that, Inara? 

We are looking at you - precious Inara, beautiful Inara, [i]captivating[/i] Inara - because of all the foxy boys and all the foxy girls and all the foxy folks in all the foxy lands, you are the most eye-catching, irresistible Fox of them all! Ever! Now, yes, he doesn’t know [i]exactly[/i] who you are. Even with your dragon-tussle, it’s a little tricky to pin down beyond a VIF, who is also a VMF, and probably also a VFF. And yet! He can recognize just how brilliant and beautiful and skilled and maidenly you are! Such is your power! And we can’t forget that you already have proven experience making the biggest, baddest wolves chase their tails silly.

So. Inara. We don’t need to be asking us much of anything, no? You’ve got this alllllll well in hand, yes?

Go on, then. Tell us how you keep all those eyes on you. With both paws tied behind your back~
