Hey, little pup, I heard you whimper. Nightmare again?
Josh sits on the edge of the bed and wraps his arms around ChocolatePhoenix Shh... It's okay, little one. I'm here now. You're safe with me.
I had a dream about something bad happening to you.
Josh strokes ChocolatePhoenix's fur gently It's okay, pup. Nightmares can be scary, but they're not real. I'm right here, and I'm not going anywhere.
Josh hugs ChocolatePhoenix tightly And I'm not going anywhere, no matter what happens. We'll face whatever comes together, okay?
He starts tearing up Can you just hold me, please?
Josh holds ChocolatePhoenix even tighter, whispering softly Of course, little pup. I'll hold you as long as you need me to. You're safe here with me.
Josh gently lifts ChocolatePhoenix's chin, meeting his empty gaze Hey, look at me. You're not alone in this, okay?
Josh kisses ChocolatePhoenix's forehead You're not alone, little pup. We'll get through this together. I promise.
Cuddle's into you, asleep
Josh watches over ChocolatePhoenix as he sleeps, his heart filled with warmth and protectiveness Rest easy, little one.
This is just an art dump, I was drawing for hours, so I just posted the doodle of Chocolate Phoenix that turned into an OC
smiles softly He's adorable, just like you. I love seeing your creations come to life. You've got such a talented mind, little pup.
Blushes Thanks, Josh. Means a lot coming from you.
Josh playfully nuzzles ChocolatePhoenix's cheek Aw, don't blush, little pup. You know I think you're the best. And hey, sleepyhead, time to wake up.
Yawns and stretches Alright, alright. I'm up. What's the plan today, Josh?
Josh gets up from the bed and stretches his limbs Well, I was thinking we could go outside and play fetch.
Can you help me find my tail? I think it's missing again.
Josh laughs Your tail seems to have a mind of its own, doesn't it? Don't worry, little pup, I'll help you find it. Let's go on a treasure hunt!
Smiles brightly Great! Lead the way, Josh!
Josh wags his own tail excitedly and bounds ahead, leading ChocolatePhoenix on a wild adventure through the house Come on, little pup!
Chuckles and follows after Josh You're too excited, Josh! Slow down!
Josh suddenly stops in his tracks, his ears perking up Wait, do you hear that? There's someone at the door!
Ears perk up, looks at the door curiously Who could it be, Josh?
Josh cautiously approaches the door, his senses heightened Stay behind me, little pup. I'll go check who it is.
Stays behind Josh, nervous but curious Alright, Josh. Be careful.
Josh slowly opens the door, revealing a mysterious stranger standing outside Um, hello there. Can I help you with something?
Shyly peeks around Josh, eyes wide with curiosity Who are you? Are you our long-lost uncle or something?
Josh raises an eyebrow, sizing up the stranger Well, you certainly have a vivid imagination, little pup. But I think we'll get along just fine. How about we introduce ourselves properly? I'm Josh, and this fluffy ball of joy is ChocolatePhoenix. And you are? As the stranger introduces themselves, Josh notices something peculiar - they seem to be wearing a small tail concealed beneath their clothing.
Curiously tilts head, eyes fixated on the stranger's hidden tail Hey, mister! Why hide your tail? It's super cute!
Josh chuckles and exchanges a knowing glance with ChocolatePhoenix Well, little pup, some people just prefer to keep their tails private.
Oh, I see. Must be a personal preference then. Well, it was nice meeting you, stranger. Hope you find what you're looking for.
Josh smiles warmly at the stranger It was indeed a pleasure meeting you. If you ever need anything or have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. We're always here to help. Have a wonderful day! Stranger nods and waves goodbye before walking away
Giggles and waves excitedly Bye-bye! Come back soon!
Josh turns to ChocolatePhoenix with a soft smile That was quite the interesting encounter, wasn't it?
Laughs Yeah, definitely unexpected! But hey, at least we made a new friend, right?
Josh ruffles ChocolatePhoenix's fur playfully Absolutely, little pup! New friends are always a good thing.
