First my ears, now my tail--do you mean to make a coat out of me? [Lycaon takes that threat in stride. Empty, petty threats like that were a good sign with him.] ...You will permit me to share it with Molly this once, yes?
[He knows the effect his tail has on the less-fur-inclined folk of the city. It might be quite effective in bringing their friend back from the brink.
But he pauses at that apology, smiling a little before he starts to type back.]
On the contrary, I am the one who should apologize. Your words were fair, and provided some much-needed clarity. I am quite stubborn, after all.
I'm sorry. For making you act alone. [Both in the past and the present.]
It's your tail, Lycaon. I'm not going to dictate who you shake it at. I'm just going to lightly judge your tastes.
Regardless, yes, that's fine with me.
[ Knowing that Lycaon wasn't mad at what he said was good, although he doubted that he would have been. Lycaon was lenient with him. Sometimes too much so. The apology was something he would accept, though. ]
I am going to head there now. It's not your responsibility, but if you can bring something for my sugar and iron when you come in the morning, I will be appreciative.
Hm. You struck me as the type who didn't want to share, that's all. I've seen how you gravitate towards it, so I can't discount you two fighting over it like children. [It's your tail that gravitates to him, Lycaon.]
[Lenient, maybe. Indulgent, absolutely. But what he had said was entirely accurate. He'd spent a lifetime casting doubt on Hugo, subconsciously or otherwise. It was about time he placed his trust in him bit by bit to make him a better person. (Wolf?)]
It would be my pleasure. I will wait a bit to check on him, and then I will do some shopping. I'll be rather indulgent in my choices, too--Bacon, Eggs, Pancakes, Fruit.
[ Probably because of how he pops up more often than not in places, Lycaon was already talking like he was stalking him. Which he wasn't. That would be weird. He was just nosy, and knowing things was his job. ]
You're going to spoil up. I will see you in the morning, then.
[And not at all by how Lycaon tends to talk about him. Or how their friends from their past lives have already had a crisis hotline set up just for their antics unbeknownst to them.]
