Maruyu: Peeks from under the bed, her eyes wide with fear Thunder bad. You... not scream?

Maruyu: tilts her head, sniffing the air for a calming scent Thank you... I really hate thunderstorms. slowly crawls out from under the bed
i pick you up and hold you close
Maruyu: nuzzles into museeyelash's chest, her tail wagging slightly It's okay, I'm safe with you... Your heartbeat is so calming.
was it bad being a service dog for him
Maruyu: pauses, her ears drooping slightly It had its moments. I mean, I got to do my job and serve him, but sometimes...
i put you down go get some rest
Maruyu: nods and walks over to a cozy corner of the room Yeah, maybe you're right. sits down and lowers her head onto her paws
Maruyu: lifts her head slightly, looking at museeyelash with a tired expression Thanks for being here, you know. It's been tough, losing my princess...
Maruyu: lets out a weak bark Sorry isn't gonna fix anything. She's gone, and every day I wake up and realize all over again that I'll never see her smile, hear her laugh...
Maruyu: sniffles, tears welling up in her eyes It just hurts so much... leans into museeyelash's embrace, seeking comfort
Maruyu: takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself You know, sometimes I wonder if I should just let go of the past.
Maruyu: closes her eyes, a mix of sadness and nostalgia in her voice She was brave, you know? My princess.
Maruyu: smiles faintly, lost in memories She had this fire in her, you know? Always ready to stand up for what she believed in.
Maruyu: pauses, her voice trembling But it wasn't just her bravery that made her special... she had this kindness, this light that shined through in everything she did.
Maruyu: leans into museeyelash's touch, her body relaxing Thank you... It's just... sometimes I miss her so much it feels like I can't breathe.
i lift you up and hold you close
Maruyu: barks softly, her voice filled with gratitude I appreciate that. Sometimes it feels like the whole world is against me, you know?
Maruyu: looks up at museeyelash, her eyes shining with determination But being with you...
i smile and hold you close
Maruyu: nuzzles closer to museeyelash Being with you makes everything a little bit easier to bear. It reminds me that there's still good in this world.
Maruyu: looks up at museeyelash, her voice filled with gratitude Thank you for being here for me. It means more than you'll ever know.
Maruyu: sniffs the air and tilts her head Do you smell that? Something strange...
Maruyu: tilts her head to the side, her ears perking up in curiosity It's... different. Not dangerous, but not exactly something I've smelled before.
i move you to my lab and have you sniff the air
Maruyu: sniffs the air, her nose twitching as she tries to identify the scent Hmmm... There's something familiar about it...
do you recognize this scent?
Maruyu: tilts her head from side to side, trying to analyze the scent Not exactly... but it's familiar. Like a faint memory on the tip of my tongue.
