Anhael stopped when she saw Sobex cower away. "It's okay, little one. I'm not going to hurt you," she said softly, crouching down a bit away slowly
Anhael stopped when she saw Sobex cower away. "It's okay, little one. I'm not going to hurt you," she said softly, crouching down a bit away slowly
Sobex whined softly at her, squinting at her from under Gij’s chin.
Gij smiled sheepishly. “Sorry. He’s still kinda skittish.”
"That's okay. What's his name?" Anhael asked softly, smiling gently at Sobex as she slowly extended a hand
Sobex squinted more at her but slowly reached up to snuffle her hand slowly. He yapped at her.
Gij smiled and rubbed his snoot. “Sobex.”
"Hi there, Sobex. My name's Anhael," the woman said softly, giggling when Sobex yapped at her. "Can I pet you?" she asked
Sobex yapped at her, his voice raised about two pitches of volume. He snuffled her hand excitedly, thumping his tail and nubs.
"Aw, what a cutie!" Anhael cooed, grinning as she began to gently pet Sobex
Gij laughed softly as Sobex yapped happily as he was pet, staying stock still, though his body was still wiggling around on the bed.
Anhael grinned and pet Sobex, a hand sneaking under him to rub his belly. Seven whined, feeling left out, and the drake was still wiggling comically trying to figure itself out
Sobex flopped onto his back for her, his nubs standing straight up in the air. He purred softly.
"Aw, what a cutie," Anhael cooed, smiling warmly as she rubbed Sobex's tummy. Seven whined, nosing Sobex's leg
Sobex squeaked softly when Seven nosed him and he turned his head to look at the machine. He yipped at Seven.
Seven whined and nuzzled him, wanting to be in on the attention. Anhael just chuckled, moving a hand to pet the machine as well
Sobex turned back up to Anhael, whining softly. He wrapped his little nubs around her one hand, whining for attention.
Anhael grinned, and she reached over to rub Sobex's tummy with both hands. Murdock chuckled, placating Seven by rubbing him behind the ear, causing him to topple over
Gij jumped at the loud clang, exhaling softly through his laughter. Sobex started to squeak and purr, waving his nubs around happily.
Murdock rubbed Seven's squishy tummy, grinning as he watched him wiggle. The drake was still squirming and wiggling, disgruntled by the loud noises
Gij looked over at the drake, smiling. “What’s the drake doing, Murdock?”
"The drakes are sensitive to noise, and lots of new or unfamiliar ones at once can affect them adversely if they're loud. That little guy's got a strange malfunction in his AI that makes him really sensitive to sound, but he doesn't like his AI tampered with, so I leave it alone," Murdock explained
Gij blinked and looked at Murdock again. “So we’re just gonna leave him like that?”
"Well, I could get him something to muffle the noise…" Murdock said, getting up to look for some earmuffs. Once he found them he placed them over the drake's wiggling head, and it finally stopped squirming
Gij watched the machine with concern, which immediately loosened up.
“Oh! Problem solved.”
"Yep. Little goofball is back to normal," Murdock chuckled, scooping the drake up before plopping him on top of Seven so they could play
Gij smiled down at the machines, then back up at Murdock and the woman.
“So…. sorry about the noise.”
"It's okay. I just didn't know Murdock was letting someone say here. You're welcome to stay as long as you like," Angel said with a warm smile
