He appeared off-put at first - what, with all the barking. He stopped in the doorway, looking down at her slightly confused before continuing into the room. He watched her spin circle, with her tail going non-stop and he was smiling even though he didn't want to. Nothing major, there was no show of teeth, or anything close to the wide grins she had utilized the night before. Just a small curve of lips on one side of his mouth. The barking continued and he now assumed it was gratitude. He was a fast learner and hopefully dog body language was something that was easy to pick up.
He leaned forward to take the remote since she seemed to be offering it, before watching her eat for a heartbeat. So, this was okay. He didn't change the channel, only half watching as a baby moose trudged through a lake with it's mother. He could totally handle poodle-form. Poodle form was downright adorable, and almost polite.
She hopped onto his lap as soon as he turned his attention away from her. He froze, momentarily, in between changing the channel to the afternoon news. He was pretty sure he should protest this development. Just go ahead and nip the whole cuddling concept right in the bud. But, she curled up, and he relaxed slightly, because this was totally okay. Right? She was a dog, and if she wanted to behave like one he supposed it was her prerogative. Tentatively, he brushed his hand along her back. Her tail was still wagging furiously, and in a bit of boldness he gently scratched behind her hears.
This was totally okay. Not weird at all. Nope. He could handle this.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
