Here he'd just been starting to relax, and the instant she got pretty he went stiff again.
And not the fun kind.
Well.
Kind of the fun kind.
With a sleepy hum her hand slid up his chest, gripped his shoulder so she could pull herself upright. She twisted as she came up, so that she was sitting across his lap and resting her head on his other shoulder. "Thank you for lunch," she murmured. "I said it before, but I don't think you could understand me. That was really sweet." At the same time as she was speaking, the index finger of the hand on his shoulder was tapping out a rhythm. And… stroking?
Tap-tap-tap. Tap-tap-stroke. Tap-stroke-stroke-tap.
She giggled. "You should get… hm." She tilted her head back to think, then shrugged. "I don't know why I'm acting like I care," she admitted. "It's not like there's bad pizza. If you get chain instead of local I'll probs make fun of you, though." She frowned, then, turning her shoulders and stretching awkwardly to scratch at a spot between her shoulderblades. "A-ny-way," she said, wiggling in his lap so that she could slide off of him, twirling on the balls of her feet so that she faced him (and, not coincidentally, so he couldn't see her tail). "If you decide you wanna help me wash my hair," she teased, rumpling the curls in question demonstratively, "you know where to find me." She flounced away, swaying to the tune that she was humming.
Nadine did not necessarily need to shower whenever she stopped being a dog. It was theoretically an extended period where she didn't even sweat. But even if she hadn't had to use the bathroom anyway, she just needed something. Ironically, nothing made her want to roll herself all over the carpet like not being a dog anymore. Or rub her hands all over herself. A hard spray of cold water was much more efficient, all told.
"… and if we go someplace to dance I know that there's a chance…"
