JUDE
you're like the sun, you wake me up
It almost seems like a lost cause, even Sohalia calling Tal and Boreal back inside. But Jude believed her, and he'd heard it himself, so he continues to gently tap the furniture and crawl around on his knees making soft kissy noises. It must be the perfect combination because a tiny kitten comes tottering out from under the couch, and Jude's heart melts straight into his ribcage as it sniffs at his fingers first then Sohalia's. Standing and hovering close to where Soh holds it, he has to bite his tongue against the desire to ask to hold it next.
Except there's something far better on the horizon, and Jude's eyes go wide and beseeching as they dart quickly to Tal before back to Sohalia, interjecting before Tal can speak in a way he would otherwise never do. "I can take her! She can stay in either of my houses, both my parents love animals." His visitations were evenly split, so he wouldn't miss her too much either when away. And, so he won't succumb to the desire to pluck her out of Sohalia's arms, Jude instead busies his hand with petting the kitten around his friend's fingers, marveling at the softness of her fur.
