"I dunno. It just does," Charlie replies, heading to the open kitchen and grabbing one of the ginger ales off the counter. She heads back to Julian, watching him with her pets.
"Max, there, is from a world where giant lizard monsters come from the sea and try to destroy everything. They're fought by people piloting giant robots called Jagers. I don't know much about them, just that it takes two people connected through some kind of neuro-transmitter."
He didn't have any experience being around animals so, he was a bit awkward
with them. He didn't dislike them, but knowing how to just reach out and
pet one wasn't automatic to him either. Looking back at her, he raised an
eyebrow. "How did you manage that? That must be a hell of a adoption
process."
"Ahh, now that makes a whole lot more sense," Julian replied. "Is he
friendly?" He's hesitant about reaching his hand out to an animal he
doesn't know. He's not a vampire so they shouldn't react negatively to
him.. at least more so than any other human but why risk his hand?
It's Max that answers his question, rolling onto his feet and walking across the couch to stare at Julian, tail wagging fiercely.
"I think he likes you," Charlie replies with a grin as she heads over to her dog, scratching him behind his ears. Max leans into her hand, eyes closing and clearly enjoying the contact.
"He doesn't bite. It's the basan that's the guard dog. You really gotta watch what you do around him. He doesn't like it if it looks like I'm in danger."
"Aw," Julian said with a grin as he watched the dog. Okay, it was pretty
cute. He mimicked her motion to pet the dog and decided this fella was
alright with him. "I'd never try to hurt ya, so we should get along okay."
