[ The ruffle of his hair is successful in comforting him. The puppy barks in protest, which makes Brambles giggle. ]

I wouldn't need a leash, hm? Is that a declaration of your loyalty?

[regressive]

[ He didn't accept a ring, so...

Joonghyuk doesn't answer the question—instead he leans in to bite Brambles' ear lightly. ]

You might need a muzzle, though.

[dapples]

[ HE WILL ONE DAY AT THE RIGHT TIME...

He laughs bright and joyous when Joonghyuk nibbles on his ear - it tickles! ]

Heehee! It's true - you are one bitey pooch, aren't you? [ Hair ruffle! ]

[regressive]

[ He'd make a barking sound here, but the actual dog does a great job. He wants more attention from Brambles!! And maybe that other angry guy too. But mostly Brambles!! ]

I guess we can set up our stuff here.

[dapples]

Sounds good to me!

[ Time to resume fussing the dog! Brambles gets ambushed by licks. ]

Ehe! So many kisses! [ Just then, a sheltie with big brown eyes begins to nose at Joonghyuk's hand. The Brambles lookalike has appeared. ]

[regressive]

[ A ghost of a smile appears on Joonghyuk's lips, even though he's a little jealous of the dog. ]

Do you want a snack, Bramb? [ Actually... he's talking to the dog. After acknowledging that he looks just like his boyfriend, he starts scratching the sheltie behind his ears. ] And you too, Bramley?

[dapples]

Huh? [ He turns around when he hears his name mentioned. ] Did you say my name twice?

[regressive]

Bramley, meet Bramb.

[ He wraps his arms around the sheltie carefully to give him a tentative hug. ]

[dapples]

[ It's so cute and fluffy!! ]

Oh! Is this my doppelgänger dog? [ Giggle. ] My "doggelgänger"?

[regressive]

[ That's a good one, just not to Joonghyuk who groans. ]

Bramb... I'm sorry for Bramley. I promise he hadn't had any drinks before we came here.

[dapples]

Hey! [ He sticks his tongue out. ] Punisher is picking on me, Mini-Punisher!

[ Time to get barked at by a small black pomeranian! Barkbarkbark! ]

[regressive]

Mini-Punisher...?

[ What a... suitable name. That being said, Joonghyuk can't help but smile after seeing Brambles tease him back. They should have come here sooner. ]

If you're a good boy, I'll feed you.

[ It's up to you to figure out who is he talking to, Brambles!! ]

[dapples]

[ Oh, he absolutely perks up at that - blushing slightly at “good boy.” ] Wha? Me? [ Wishful thinking!! ]

[regressive]

Oh, that's what you thought?

[ Joonghyuk keeps scratching the dog behind his ears, but with his other hand he reaches for Brambles chin and tips his head up. ]

Are you a good boy, Brambles?

[ NOT IN FRONT OF THE DOGS??? ]

[dapples]

I … I …

[ He blushes furiously - practically radiating heat off his scalding cheeks. Oh no. ]

I’m … a good boy …

[ THE POOR DOGS ]

[regressive]

[ The sheltie whines, but Joonghyuk ignores that for a while. ]

Good boys deserve a snack, right?

[ Whatever this snack is. ]

[dapples]

[ He pokes his tongue out and licks his lips. Intentional? Absolutely. ]

Yeah.

[regressive]

If you had a tail, you'd be wagging it right now, wouldn't you?

[ The mental image alone is enough to make him smile softly. ]

And good boys don't need muzzles.

[dapples]

That's true, we don't bite ... but we do like to give lots of kisses ...

[ And then Bramb leans up to start licking Joonghyuk's cheeks and neck. Mlem mlem. ]

[regressive]

Hey—

[ His protests are futile, it seems. ]

I had no idea that I'm the snack.

[dapples]

[ Lick, lick, lick. His mouth finds the shell of Joonghyuk's ear, which he proceeds to nibble. Brambles can't help but giggle like a misbehaving child. ]

Heehee!

[regressive]

You won't get other snacks if you keep—hah.

[ What is this? A chuckle? Slipping from Punisher's mouth? ]

[dapples]

[ !! ]

[dapples]

What?! What was that?!

[ He squeezes Punisher's ribs to try and tickle him. ]

[regressive]

A laugh...?

[ His ribs are immune, but it might be a good idea to try something with his ears or neck. Just saying. ]
