[Lalli is cute. Relief rocks quietly under the surface of Riku's feelings. He didn't think it was terribly, but he was a little worried Lalli wouldn't know what to do with it.
But Lalli likes being under the bed, and Lalli likes cats (and acts like one), so he made his best guess.]
No problem.
[Taking the hood by both ears, he gently straightens it on Lalli's head. There.]
Better watch out. You won't ever get rid of Kissa now. She'll be sleeping on you all the time in that thing.
[It is straightened on his head, and the ears flop down in a way that is absolutely adorable.
Suddenly Lalli feels a little shy, because Riku is right there and it makes Lalli feel seen. The shyness and appreciation are all churning in him and making him feel antsy.]
She will have to fight for her space, because I'm going to keep it wrapped around me.
[He's telling the truth too, he's not letting go of this thing anytime soon.]

This makes him chuckle some. But after that, he lets Lalli be Lalli in the hooded blanket.]
She might do that.
[He's feeling a bit shy, too. Mostly because they can all share feelings. GOD.]
I'm glad you like it.

[Lalli's never been that great at words, but at least his emotions show that he's being genuine.]
You should eat too.
no subject
I will. Eat your, uh... lamb chops [this sounds laughing in an endeared way] and cake. I'll try some too.
[He will try some of the cake!! Good god it's chocolatey.]
no subject
Good. Food's best when it's shared.
[Shared with specific people, but Lalli's not saying that part. Not many people get that courtesy, usually he's stealing food from others.]
