[ alek is a wolf.

he's not a cat, and this must be stressed emphatically. though in retrospect, he'd rather be a cat than a baby lamb. the point is! there's only so many animals alek can shapeshift into, but. if he could shapeshift into an animal that resembled his personality at times, it would be a cat. secretly needy, prickly at times, and possessing bottomless affection for those precious few he decides to give it to. and much like a cat, he's fallen asleep on cora's lap.

they were watching some movie or other, and spending time with cora often means he lets his guard down. letting his guard down means he allows himself to doze off. he's thankfully not drooling, nothing too embarrassing, but he is snoring softly as his cheek presses to the denim of her jeans.

... sorry about that. ]

[Cora doesn't mind when he falls asleep in her lap, really. She can recognize it for the expression of trust it is, and occasionally she even encourages it when he happens to rest there, her fingers carding through his hair gently to ease him off into sleep. She's always been more comfortable in the easy silences between people anyway.

That is, however, until her leg starts to fall asleep, and she absolutely has to move. She wants to try and do it without waking Alek up which is ... complicated. She wriggles a bit. Tries to shift slowly so that she can get her leg out. But none of it is quite enough to get her the relief she needs.]

Hey.

[splinted]

[ he can't remember the last time someone showed him that kind of simple affection. no, that's not true, he can. when alek was younger, his hair was unruly, a mop of curls his mother would gently push out of his forehead, so that she could kiss him goodnight.

every night.

alek's sleep this evening is light. at the stirring, he starts to stretch in place, and pushes open one sleepy eye. ]

Hey. [ smile equally sleepy, he finally straightens himself into a seated position, rubbing the side of his face. ] How long was I out?

[impetere]

[She shakes her head as she gives him room to sit up, before stretching her leg out herself. It's not entirely his fault that her leg fell asleep, and she doesn't want him to feel like it was. She just needs to get the pins and needles sensation out of the way.]

Not long. My leg just fell asleep.

[splinted]

Sorry.

[ alek gives her a sheepish grin, since he definitely did not want to be the reason her leg fell asleep, even if she made for a very good pillow. ]

[impetere]

[She shakes her head as she gets up to stretch out a bit.]

Not your fault.

[She shrugs.]

Maybe we should go for a walk.
