They were at another hotel, like they had many times before. But how could they not? On a long journey like theirs, they needed to make stops for the necessary. Sleep and food was the most necessary, but occasional extra cash he could make was wonderful as well. He blinked as he watched as his companion on the bed beside his.

She was beautiful. Her long hair held a russet color to it, her body slim and perky breasts atop her chest. The only thing that was different about her... the only thing that constantly reminded him of who, and what, she really was.. was the wolf ears atop her head, and the bushy tail. The said tail was in the owner's lap at the moment, twitching delightfully as the holder of the brush, brushed it gently. He couldn't help but watch with fascination as the tail waggled happily to the attention of the bristles, as if it had a mind of it's own.

The brushing ceased, causing Lawrence to blink and look up at Horo, whose red eyes met his blue-violet ones. He gave her an uneasy look, which caused her to lay her brush down and eye him again. “Is there something wrong with my tail?”

He felt a flip of panic in his heart at her words. “No! Of course not, you said it yourself didn't you? Your tail needs to be kept by brushing and grooming.”
“I didn't ask you to parrot what I say, I asked you if you find something wrong with my tail.”

It was an odd question, but Horo was Horo, and she seemed to pride her tail over anything. He gave her a small smile. “I think your tail is wonderful. You take great care of it and it shows. It looks shiny and soft.”

Horo blinked, she actually hadn't expected Lawrence to actually compliment her tail, but the fact that he did caused it to wag and she laughed, causing Lawrence to blink in surprise, then glare lightly at her. She shook her head and went back to brushing her tail dutifully. Lawrence's asskissing was kind of nice.
