Dandeline is cuddling me tight for her very first thing in the morning. And it's a bone-breaking trial to push her face with my tiny paws. "Cute morning to you, Hessuel~" she greets like a little girl. I resist no more to maintain that innocence with her. Even though it's teasing, I like it, especially when she rubs my chin. "You look pissed. Did I ruin your sleep? How about this?"

["Dan, I may look like a pup but I'm different from their nature... and... please keep on doing that."] I can't ignore the tickling feeling even if she's treating me inhumanely! She giggles then rubs my head longer.
