[HIS PAW. There's a little blip of disgruntlement BUT AGAIN HE DOESN'T TAKE HIS HAND BACK YET... He is such a baby when he's allowed to be. DOESN'T HAVE TO BE COLD, NOT GONNA BE COLD.]
Just Cats is a pet store, I believe, but there are many cats that roam freely through it. Barks and Waffles is a bit more odd...? But harmless, and the waffles are quite good. It's a bookstore that appears to be owned by a very small dog.
[ HE'S SUCH A LIL BABY SO FUNNY scien - not even in a conscious move just an automatic one - again brushes his thumb against the back of lucas's hand as if to physically smooth out that disgruntlement ]
[A LIL BABY!!!!! GOOD COLD DOG. The gesture is met with a little blip of confusion. This is truly just exposure therapy where you pet a feral cat with an object while they're still hissing and biting until they are confused but okay with it.]
We do have quite a few animals. No leeches, though. [A LONG PAUSE.......] But bees... with teeth.
I don't think they do, normally... The bees at the beach were only aggressive if you bothered their homes. I think these ones may simply attack to kill if you enter their space at all...
[The vibes are disgust and revulsion he hates bugs so damn much.]
[SCIEN IS ALSO LUCAS'S MORTAL ENEMY and yet only one of these things gets the feelings of disgust. He does give Scien a bit of a sharp look at that, though.]
They ought to be an enemy to everyone here. Bees shouldn't have teeth and a taste for blood.
Of course. She doesn't need to know that a place exists with bees that eat people...
[That is too Brothers Grimm when he just wants to paint lovely if wildly untrue pictures of daily life in a strange and magical foggy town for her.
Anyway that's enough cute shit you are DEAD i hate it here. There's a little blip of a ! sort of feeling as some of the discomfort that he's dealt with all day from frigidity fades.]
...Ah. I believe it's come to the end of twelve hours.
[He moves to take his hands back first, though he's not snatching them back. Just gently unlacing fingies.]
when lucas's coldness fades, scien will call that acceptable. there's satisfaction in his emotions as his stupid lil dog is no longer cold, and he doesn't fight off lucas untangling their fingers. ]
I'm going to put you on your feet. Don't freak out.
[ just so it's not some uncomfortable affair to get off of scien's lap. once he's sure the explanation is accepted, he'll scoop lucas right up again and then stand so he can easily set him back on his feet, borrowed blankie and all ]
I won't. [Said with a bit of the emotional vibe of :/ as if he hasn't already tackled Scien over because he was startled about being moved suddenly. LISTEN THAT WAS AN EXCEPTION HE WAS GOING THROUGH IT (he's always going through it) maybe so.
BUT UP HE GOES and he's back on his feet, feeling surprisingly alright with everything that just happened. Glancing down at himself.]
...Yes and no, respectively. [A little blip of something unhappy because he hates how fast these fckin things hit and leave. But then he'll reach up to take the blanket away from his shoulders and hand it back, though now he has the chance to look at the duckies pattern and there's a little blip of ? who the hell... WELL. This is fine. He is so calm and warm right now that he can thank easily without any part of him being riled.]
[HAPPY LIL DOG!!! For like one evening and then everything goes all to hell GODDAMN. This is fine.
For now, unaware of the wholeass mess and a half that Thursday and Friday will become for so many people, his emotional vibes are actually pretty stable. There's a little flicker of something faintly embarrassed though DON'T JUST SAY IT LIKE THAT.]
You did have to stay still for quite some time. [Not working on whatever various things Sciens are wont to work on... But, moving right along:] I'll take my leave, then, if we're finished here.

.... I wish I could be surprised. I didn't think bees would have a propensity for violence.

Your mortal enemy.

It seems that there's many incongruous things around that shouldn't exist.
So that'll be left out of Nadia's stories, I take it.

Feeling alright? No lingering effects?

Thank you for warming me.

he’ll take the blanket back and fold it over his arm. scien raises a brow, but his expression softens nonetheless at the gratitude ]
You’re welcome. Though I think I said it already that it’s no great hardship to hold your hand.
