They're easily scared when they're not angry. It isn't as though we can simply grab one and leave with it.
Garista seems to be doing well enough now that he's decided to stay, but he didn't always know what to think of me when I first brought him back, either. It may take some time.
no subject
Ah, I see. Did he hide a lot or was he doing that... growling thing?
[Was that growling??]
no subject
He never seemed to dislike me enough to make noise at me. Outside of the usual, anyway.
no subject
[Here's hoping he'll be as lucky??]
no subject
[garista...tries, um
how are the snakes doing over there, incidentally, are they still reasonably chill]
no subject
[He kind of loves it, honestly.
The snakes are doing fine! They're shifting a bit like they're considering coming closer, but most of them stay where they are.
And then this majestic beast pokes her(?) head out from the bushes and slithers her way over to the fruit nearest to her. She(?) daintily takes a bite out of it, all while keeping an eye on both of us.
There really isn't a reaction to this that isn't "oh my god"]
Look at the coloring on that one!
[IT'S SO IMPRACTICAL, IT'S WONDERFUL]
no subject
[alexei-
That said, though, that thing is weirdly precious?? Even if the coloration is kind of. wow.]
no subject
[The other fursnakes are making noises and shuffling about awkwardly, like they aren't really sure what to make of this still while she goes for piece #2, either completely unafraid or just really liking the fruit. She's still not taking her eyes off of us, but she's not making warning noises either so this is probably a good thing, maybe??]
no subject
[...Or maybe it just likes free food, who knows.]
no subject
[no seriously, can he please have this one, he loves it....
Anyway, the pink fursnake will keep approaching for food, she'll(?) even get right up near us once she's(?) eaten everything that's been laid out.]
no subject
She doesn't seem to mind you, at any rate.
[so cute...]
I take it we're not leaving without this one.
no subject
[He's not going to make a move to touch or anything, but he looks very excited.
She's paying less attention to him and more to Alexei, waiting for more food. She isn't all that patient though, because she'll start making noises after a moment, though it doesn't sound like she's going to start shrieking.]
no subject
I mean, he'll comply because he doesn't feel like being screamed into unconsciousness today, have some damn fruit.]
Well, she certainly does seem to know what she wants...
no subject
[Oh my god he just thought of the perfect name. Yes, he needs this one.
She'll eat the food and then look up at you again like, all right cool, but you've still got more.]
Here, let me try.
[Just give him the pieces, since you've already got your sword out.]
no subject
anyway
just...take the fruit, he is fine with this]
no subject
Anyway, he'll place the food in front of him and while she deadeyes him for a moment like "really", she'll come on over and eat the food. Look at this, it's going surprisingly well; he kind of figured this would end in unconsciousness.]
no subject
It's been a while since he's done anything low-key and normal like this; there have been a few moments here and there since he was brought here, but generally there's always something else keeping it from being genuinely decent. This is...fine, however, it's weird but it's acceptable.]
no subject
You know, besides the fursnake.
Speaking of her, she's accepted the fruit Yeager's given her, and once he's out of fruit they both just sort of stare at each other like "now what". Thankfully, she doesn't seem hungry anymore, so she's not making noises for more food, but she's not moving either.
After a moment, Yeager speaks up, though he keeps his voice lower than the usual volume.]
Well, aren't you incredibly cute? You certainly have moxie, coming up to us directly like that!
[The fursnake chirps in response, though she's obviously just making noise because she doesn't understand a goddamn word of that and isn't sure what to respond with.
...please help, what does he do now...]
no subject
Do you want to see if she'll let you pet her? Put your hand out and see what she does with it.
[Maybe she'll let you pet, maybe she'll bite you, maybe she'll interpret it as an invitation to climb your arm. Maybe she'll just stare at you like you're a fucking idiot? He wouldn't put any of that past it, really.]
no subject
Sorry, you won't find much there, I'm afraid!
[It's not painful or anything and he's wearing gloves like always, so this is fine. She'll eventually settle a bit, before headbutting his hand. Is... is this how he starts petting her because he isn't sure... but he'll try maybe...??? She lets him, so this entire thing is pretty dumb, but you know what, it's working and that's the important thing.]
no subject
It's not excruciatingly difficult once you get started. And as I said, it's not as though what you were doing was completely terrible before.
["it didn't entirely suck"/"i don't completely hate it": clearly the highest praise you're going to get]
no subject
Anyway, he'll take some time petting the pink fursnake; she seems accepting of this and will allow it, for now at least.]
Is this what you did to get Garista to follow you home?
no subject
[Which sounds generous to the fursnake but really, it's like he said - it's not like we can just grab these things and go, they'll scream to high heaven.]
no subject
[If he sees anything weird about that statement, he doesn't say it. And for the time being, this fursnake has decided that she's fine with this, so that's probably a good sign. Who knows, maybe this will actually end well!!]
