raptornest | FLUFF MEME

Look, sometimes it's fun to just play out something completely sappy and self-indulgent. So let's do that here! This meme is for fluff and hurt/comfort stuff, shippy or not; AU, game setting, whatever.

Prose or brackets welcome; prompts below are just for kickstarting ideas if necessary, so don't worry about those if you've got something else in mind or just want to work things out separately. Let me know if you want to start something here, since I have it set up not to email me.

"I guess that's acceptable." He nudges Newt off his chest so he can haul himself out of the tub and grab a towel. "I'll get dressed and go reheat the food, alright? You should get some fresh clothes."

Newt bounces off, splashing down into the water to watch the panda soak the entire floor with all the water clinging to him. He can't help but grin fondly, and floats around on his back, watching him, enjoying the water for just a little longer.

"Yeah, cool," he says, shutting his eyes a little as he goes about washing his face. "--Hey, wanna watch a movie? I feel like we haven't done that in forever."

He shakes himself off a little before even trying to use the towel; he knows how much water his fur can hold onto, okay. Of course, this means there's just that much more water getting spattered around the bathroom, but that can be dealt with later.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Any preference for what?"

With an aquatic inhabitant, their bathroom is pretty well equipped for being wet a lot of the time.

Newt continues to float around the bathtub, scooping up water to get the remaining oil off his chest.

"We haven't watched Godzilla in agggggggesss!"

Ginko gives a huff, glancing over his shoulder as he sets about scrubbing at his fur with the towel.

"Why'd I even bother asking? But I can go ahead and set that up, too."

"Who freaking knows?" he shouts, before diving again.

Newt spends the next ten minutes in the tub, getting the instinct of swimming out of his system before draining it and jumping out. He shakes his fur, grabbing one of the smaller towels to dry himself off with but ends up leaving it on the bathroom floor to wander the house in the fur instead, walking through the kitchen so that he could get to their small laundry room and root around in the clean basket for clothes.

"Hey, have you seen my MIT hoodie? I can't find it."

Considering the likelihood that Newt still won't be out for a while, Ginko decides to get the DVD into the player before reheating the food. He's leaning against a counter and gives a quiet snort when Newt walks through.

"Don't think so; might be at the bottom of the basket. You planning on wearing any pants with that?"

"Maybe. I haven't decided yet," he shoots back, before pulling the larger panda clothes out to try and sort through his own smaller possessions. He might just be throwing them on the floor. Why did you want him to come home again?

Ginko leans over to watch as he goes through the laundry, raising an eyebrow. "You know, we could get out a second basket or something. Unless you want to run that stuff through a second time."

He's almost buried in the previously neatly folded laundry, only his squirming legs and tail poking out of one of Ginko's shirts before he gives a soft jubilant squeak and pulls himself and the aforementioned hoodie out. He pulls it over his head and grabs underwear so that he's a little less naked, and then comes back out, pulling the hood up over his ears and tightening the cords. One immediately goes into his mouth to chew on--which by the condition of the string looks like a bad habit he's had for years.

"Did you say something?"

...Okay, yeah, that's way too adorable. Ginko can't even PRETEND to be disapproving. He lets out a burst of laughter and turns to move their food into the microwave.

"Nothing important. D'you want something to drink?"
