Niariel continued to stroke Katsumi's tail, not really noticing her quiet growls of pleasure.<br/>"Are you kidding? I have enough trouble brushing mine and yours is ten times longer than mine!" She transferred her hand from her tiny friend's tail to her long hair, running her fingers through the fine strands. A look of puzzlement crossed Niariel's face.<br/>"I'm not making you too cold am I? Usually everyone this close to me is getting frostbite."<br/><br/><br/>Akzarel looked up and glared at Moonshadow.<br/>"Nope. I'm fine. Now scram." He gave Moonshadow's toes a slightly painful shock for emphasis.
