Kazemi & Chizuke
Chizuke lay growling on a rock, seemingly irritated and not wanting to be social in any manner.
Kazemi sits a few feet away, his long body in a pile. He watches Chizuke for a moment then grins. "Hey. Wanna hear a joke?" He moves a little closer to her.
Chizuke ignores him for a minute then sighs and turns her head to look at him, an annoyed expression on her face. "If it's a stupid one then no." She growled a little louder and glared at him.
Kazemi shook his head. "No, no. It's a really good one. I promise." The end of his tail swished around happily.
"Fine but I swear I'm going to bite you if it is something dumb." She shifted towards Kazemi and lifted her head.
"Yes!" Kazemi's eyes lit up. He cleared his throat, making Chizuke roll her eyes. "What has more lives than a cat?" He looked at her, eagerly awaiting a response.
Chizuke thinks for a long moment then shrugs. "I don't know, what?"
"Frogs, because they croak everyday!" Kazemi started snickering then burst out laughing at his own joke.
"I can't believe you came up with that. It's so corny." Chizuke shook her head but couldn't hold back a small smile. She sat up completely and flew down from the rock, now sitting at Kazemi's side. "But I guess it was a bit funny." She gave him a small nudge with her nose.
Kazemi grinned wider and his tail thumped against the ground in joy. "Did I lift your mood? Even a little bit?" He nudged her back and gave her a small lick on the head.
Chizuke nods. "Yeah, you did. Thanks, I guess." She looked away. Her face was a slight red in color. "But that doesn't mean you get to count this as a win." She huffs.
Kazemi chuckles and nuzzled her side. "Yeah, yeah. I know."
They lay down together and take in the suns rays. Soon they are both chatting and laughing together as the day goes on.
