[Fenris gets the text and his brows furrow at the words "it will melt", leaving his office turned room to go to the front of the building where he opens the door for Wade.
Autumn trails behind, and when she spots Wade her tongue dangles out and her tail wags happily as she dances about the entryway in excitement.]
[Wade's toting a few bags when Fenris opens the door for him. He gives the elf a fleeting smile, but as soon as he sees Autumn there, her eyes wide and her tongue lolling in the universal doggy look of delight, he immediately kneels down to fully enjoy the mabari's kisses.]
Oh and there's my little lady! How are you, my sweet beautiful girl? Excited to have me as your housemate? Oh, yes you are! Yes you are-- lookit that gorgeous smile!
[He continues on in this embarrassingly indulgent vein for quite some time.]
[Naturally, as soon as Wade is within kissing distance it's kisses he shall have. Autumn is a big dog, but luckily Wade looks as if he could take a good old fashion jumping from an over excited Mabari.
Autumn deserves every bit of praise and so Fenris has no problem watching this exchange go down. Eventually though he does say something.]
You two are going to see a lot more of each other now. I think you can manage to part for a bit.
[Autumn's response is a huff, but she eventually pulls back, still wagging her tail excitedly and deciding to stay beside Wade at the moment.]
I believe you have something that "is going to melt"...? It sounded quite urgent.
[As if in defiance of Fenris's overly judgy remark (rude, Fenris-- don't you know anything about paying a lady proper respect?) Wade gives Autumn one final nuzzle before drawing away slightly to regard Fenris with a knowing smirk.]
Oh it is, my alabaster-maned friend. Why don't you dig out what's in that bag over there? Bought a container for each of us-- Autumn included.
[What Fenris will find, if he heeds Wade's suggestion and searches through the plastic bag, is a small container rimed with frost and chilly to the touch. On its front is a picture of three oblong green shapes flecked with black specks, with the words "CHOCOLATE MINT CRISP" emblazoned across in elaborate writing. A plastic spoon is also at the bottom of the bag. Wade looks expectantly at Fenris, as if waiting for a reaction.]
[Autumn has decided that right now she wants to remain right by Wade's side, and her ears perk up (more than they already are, if possible) at her name being included in this exchange of mysterious treats!
Fenris quirks a single brow before doing as suggested, looking into the bag and pulling out the frosty container, inspecting it curiously. He squints in an attempt to read the front but gives up quickly, not wanting to spend too much time struggling to read in front of anyone. He at least puts two and two together given their conversation not ten minutes ago—]
Is this that—[damn it, what did he call it again?]—creamy ice?
[Wade presses his lips tightly together in an attempt to hide his grin. He's not making fun of you, Fenris-- he thinks it's adorable.]
Close. Ice cream. More of the cream part and less of the ice. How 'bout you try a scoop right now? You'll like it, promise.
[That being said, he digs into another bag, bringing out a container of vanilla ice cream, which he opens and scoops out with another spoon for Autumn.]
[It’s difficult enough trying to remember human sayings and names for things in his own world — adding other worlds to the mix just makes it more confusing!
Fenris regards the container for another moment longer before he opens it. Naturally, Autumn’s tail wags happily as she licks the ice cream off the spoon. If Mabari could change their pupils into actual heart shapes, Fenris suspects he would see them in Autumn’s gaze.
He takes a scoop, all but studying how it looks on his spoon, examining the chunks inside, the color — before he just…takes a bite. An actual bite. Unfortunately, the first thing he experiences is pain, from his teeth to his head.
[Though Autumn has probably never had ice cream before, her form is perfect, lapping the small bit of ice cream off the spoon as if it were water or milk. It's clear she enjoys it from the wagging of her tail and the way she continues to lick her chops when the last bit of it has been devoured.
Fenris, on the other hand, is having a tougher time of it. Wade snaps his head up at the sound of Fenris's exclamation of pain, and he struggles to keep the laughter out of his voice even as he admonishes him.]
D-Dude, don't just chomp down on it, geez! Wrap your lips around it like you would a spoonful of soup-- y'know, just...
[He raises his hand to his mouth and bobs his head, making a very questionable movement that he surprisingly doesn't seem to realize the implications of.]
You'll like it, honest. Just gotta get used to how it feels in your mouth.
[Autumn and Fenris are indeed having two completely different experiences, the hound licking her chops and Fenris holding a hand to his head. He glares at Wade, though it's not a very effective one. He's about to chide Wade for not warning him ahead of time when he takes in his demonstration, eyes narrowing at his word choice as his ears twitch and the tips go red.
Does he hear himself? He must.]
A heads-up would have been appreciated, [he remarks dryly, pretending as if he didn't just flush.
This time he does as instructed uses his lips instead of his teeth. His ears twitch again, but this time not in irritation or embarrassment. He doesn't say anything but the raise of his brows and the small pleasant sound that escapes him speaks volumes.]
[The ear-twitching is new, and Wade takes a moment to stare at them for a while, a strangely delighted smile stretching across his face that he doesn't seem to realize is there.]
There ya go. Good shit, yeah? Toldja you'd like it. That whole container's for you, by the way. Call it a housewarming gi-- no no, no more for you, baby. It'll make you barfy if you eat too much.
[This last part is to Autumn, who has begun whining and nosing his hand for more of the cold tasty treat. It's hard to say no to those melting brown eyes, but Wade knows they'll all be regretting it later if he gives in to her charms right now.]
[He's a touch embarrassed, but he gets over it quick enough. He opens his mouth to offer a quiet but sincere "thank you" when Autumn begins lapping at that ice cream as if she's about to devour the spoon. Fenris sighs lightly as he watches her whine, trying to work her sad puppy eyes at Wade (he won't pretend as if he's not utterly wakened by them at times. Most times.]
Autumn...
[She halts her whining to look over her shoulder at Fenris — if mabari could roll their eyes...but she relents, giving what sounds like a huffing sigh before she parks comfortably by Wade's feet with her head resting on her legs. She's just going to pout a bit.]
Spoiled. [Never mind that he's the one who does the spoiling. Shut up. At any rate, he returns his attention back to Wade.] ...Thank you.
[At least half of that thank you is actually for other things Fenris hasn't bothered to address yet — but that's not important right now.]
