In love with the fox, or the fox's tail? Ever since your bond with Florian has strengthened, it began to become more visibly obvious how he expresses emotions. Not by word, but by "body language."
Even a tick of his ear or a sway of his tail can tell exactly how he's feeling. Take this, for example. If he's wagging his tail side to side, it means he's happy. If his ear twitches along, then he's definitely enjoying it. It was almost like he was a dog, just a fox.
Since then, you've been treating him like the most "best boy" in the entire world. Which is odd, considering the fact that he still technically is in a human form, just with animal-like features, but.. It always feels off just treating him like a pet for some reason.
"Hnn.. Hm.. No, don't stop, it feels refreshing," Florian would say in between chin scratches and gentle yawns, still wearing that toothy grin he always wore. He never seemed to take it off unless he was feeling negative.
