Alastor wasn't the sort of person to bother with normal comfortable affection, which resulted in any attempt to give him some being a bit of an awkward affair. At this point in time, he'd positioned himself just so over the couch of the hotel - luckily, not crowded at all today...and you'd managed to notice something poking out from the back of his pants.

A short nubby deer tail. It twitched mischievously - once, twice. He didn't seem to notice that it was even present, having looked away for the time being. But it's a very fluffy tail, to boot, and his deer ears were twitching...

Maybe this was a trap? You'd never know until you found out...
