Anti yawned wide and loud and stretched with a little grunt.
Meanwhile, Jackie sighed and rested his large head down on Anti's.
Anti growled, annoyed, "Will you quit that!? You're gonna crush me, dammit!"
They were both up on the couch and while Anti would much rather be on Jackie's favorite chair, he had to admit, Jackie was warm and cozy to lay next to.
Jackie just laughed at him, "No, I won't. Admit it. You like cuddling"
"Fuck off"
Anti said that but then started to make biscuits with his paws on Jackie's stomach.
Jackie laid his head down and gently wagged his tail up and down.
Admittedly, being a wolf was actually pretty fun for him. He could get away with a lot as a canine even though the others KNEW who he was unlike with Anti at first.
But now they knew the cat was Anti and really. . . . . everything was pretty much the same for him except now he could talk to them ALL.
Jackie could run around and get excited and accidentally knock something over but he'd just give the puppy eyes to Henrik and he'd win him over.
Chase was having a ball with it, too. He had taken to playing fetch with Jackie even if it was sort of demeaning to him.
He had accidentally called him a 'good boy' and Jackie just stared at him, humiliated.
All was forgiven, though, when Chase gave him his own steak at dinner.
And of course, Anti got a few small bites, too.
Just then, Henrik walked in the room to see the two so close, "You two look comfortable"
Jackie wagged his tail again, "Yeah well, there's not a lot EITHER of us can do except wait for Marvin"
"Zhat might take a while"
Anti flicked his ear and narrowed his green little eyes, "What do you mean by that?"
Henrik raised a brow at him, "Vell, he spent so much time not sleeping, desperately making zhat potion. . . . I found him sleeping on the floor upstairs on a book"
Anti rolled his eyes, "Drama queen"
Jackie nipped his shoulder gently, "Be nice. He's trying his best. He deserves a break now and then"
"Speak for yourself" Anti hissed, "I've been a cat for long enough"
"It's your own fault, remember" Henrik snorted, "You're the one that attacked Marvin and got yourself covered in zhe potion"
"Oh whatever" Anti grumbled and laid with his back facing Henrik.
Jackie licked Anti's head affectionately, "It'll be alright. Very soon, we'll both be human again"
"And then everyone will stop petting me and you'll stop licking me.. . . . I hope" Anti snorted.
Jackie just laughed at him.
Just then Anti remembered something, though, and stood up with a little arch of his back in a stretch, "I nearly forgot to ask, though, doc. Why did you have my blood in those vials? What were you gonna do with it?"
Henrik sipped on his coffee, "You mean BEFORE you destroyed all of it?"
"Yeah"
The doctor sighed, "Vell. . . . I got it one night when you had fallen asleep here."
