i forget how much of a.,u hm.., we'll say 'problem',, with tails..
and the problem is that there isn't a stupidly big and fluffy one wrapping around and smothering me ,...........
Friend who starts talking to you the way you would a puppy. Starting small with praise, getting more and more obvious ovet time till your hands are paws and your hair is fur. Built up so slowly and carefully you dont even notice it, slowly becoming their little puppy
We're together, talking, laughing at some dumb joke
Then you hear it
"Mind your manners, dear."
Instantly you fix your posture, your face becomes stern and you apologize for your misbehavior
And ask if there's anything you can do for me, like a well mannered individual should
