Wolf Girl x Neko Listener Finale

Good evenin'. How was your day, hun?

Hey. Heyheyheyheyhey, you get back here! Now!

I mean it! I know what that "fine" means, and that means you're about to go sulk in your room for hours before going to bed early without me and I'm not going to let you keep avoiding your feelings. I'm here for you, and you *will* tell me what's wrong. Soooo get back here.

Now, what's up, buttercup?

Your boss yelled at you *again*? For what? You're such a hard worker, there's no way it's over something major right?

The same thing as last week? Again? I thought that was resolved. Seriously, how is that your fault? You can't give a good analysis if the data you're given is garbage! Inconsistency is *going* to show up if you aren't given anything to work with! God, that's so unfair! I'm sorry, hun. You shouldn't be going through that.

Yea, I know you're stressed, who could blame you? Having someone like that breathing down your neck would stress anyone.

It's not just that? Then what else is it?

Okay, I won't press you if you aren't ready to talk about it, ~but~ I think I know something that could make your day a bit better~ Head in my lap, please.

*laughs* That wasn't a question. Get your ass over here.

[sing-song] Come on, kitten; I know you want to~

*sigh* You're being extra difficult today, aren't you? That's okay, I have a secret weapon this time.

Yes, it *is* a laser pointer.

It's not "demeaning", not if it works, anyway.

[goading] *gasp* Look at that! It's a red dot! You should get it~

Come on, it's just sitting there, just waiting to get pounced on. You can do it!

Ah, barely missed it. Come on, just a little more, I'm sure you can catch it!

Closer, a little clos-errr. Anddd gotcha!

See? You ended up on my lap after all. Such a good boy~

This charade again? [mockingly] "Don't call me that" "I'm not a boy, I'm a *man*"... [lovingly] Nope, you're *my* good boy. Always have been, always will be, sweetie.

*sigh* Why is it you're the most difficult when you need affection the most? Especially since I am *so* willing to smother you with it.

[angrily] It's not. a. hassle. You always worry it is. How many times do I have to tell you it's not!

I'm sorry, I shouldn't be yelling at you after today... But really, you need to start loving yourself a little more, you know? It's been getting worse lately, which makes me worry that you aren't taking care of yourself like you should be.

What do I mean? What I mean is: are you eating? Are you sleeping enough? Are you being kind and gentle to yourself when I'm not there? Are you taking ANY breaks? Given what I've seen I think the answer is 'no' all of them, which is *exactly* why I'm trying so hard to give you the love you're missing.

Don't even try to lie to me, I *know* you're not. You come home for lunch, you're working, you come home for dinner, you're working. You go to bed, yep, still... working... I can't watch you destroy yourself anymore, hun. It breaks my heart knowing my sweet little kitten is working himself to death. You're worth more than that, okay? You're worth more than just the work you do.

Shhh, don't cry! Everything's okay, you're okay. Would some head scritchies make you feel better?

Okay, here. *scritching SFX*

I love you so so much, okay? I can't express that enough. You're my best friend, my favorite person, my everything, you know? And it hurts seeing you like this. So, tonight, will you promise me you'll take care of yourself? Eat, shower, sleep, that sort of thing?

Thank you; that makes me feel better hearing that. Now, you go take a shower and I'll have a secret surprise waiting for you in the bedroom.

I can't tell you what it is, it's a secret! You'll see soon enough.

*pause*

Ta~Da~! A blanket fort! I *know* you love burrowing into masses of blankets, and you also have me to give you alll the headpats, scritchies, and love that you need to make up for such an awful day! Go on, get yourself changed into something comfy, I got a spot right here just waiting for you!

There you go, snuggle in close, nuzzle yourself into my chest. That's a good boy.

*Hum something softly*

Shh, no talking. Just let yourself relax and enjoy some loving, okay? There you go, squeeze me as tight as you'd like. Take some deep breaths. That's it, In... and out...

Are you feeling a little bit better, now?

That's good, makes me happy to hear you're feeling better. We'll stay like this for a little longer and then we can order some take out for dinner.

Yea, we *could* cook, buttt I *really* don't want to. You need something super delicious too, and I don't think I have anything to really cook something like that. Need to go grocery shopping tomorrow.

Hey hey hey, don't leave! I'm not done snuggling you yet!

You want to go get something? Okay, what do you need so badly that you're able to pull yourself away from pets? It must be something important.

It is? Oh, uhm, okay?

*pause*

You're back! What are you holding behind your back?

Yea, of course I love you. Always have, always will. What are you asking for?

Wait, is that... No! Are you, are you proposing-- oh get off your knee you goofball, of course I'll marry you.

Oh my god, I love you so much!

*squeezes listener in hug* Is this what's been stressing you so much recently?

Why would you be nervous! How could I *ever* say no to you; like I said, you're my best friend, my everything. I can't imagine living my life without you. I don't even know what life before you was like.

God, we *really* need something to celebrate this; I think this is the perfect time to break out that fancy wine we've been saving.

Of course, it's blasphemy; burgers and fries with fancy wine. I'm sure the French are rolling in their graves just mentioning it, but, that's just how we roll. Come on, let's find ourselves a corkscrew and get our orders in, we've got a long night of celebrating ahead of us.
