[ ... It's touch week, so Claude reaches over to ruffle his hair. ]

You're focused. That's impressive.

[branches]

[This is allowed but also he turns a little red.]

Wh-It's not like I've actually done anything!?

[shaft]

It's the thought that matters, right? Your intentions are good.

[ cute... ]

[branches]

....

[A beat.]

You really are talking like a dad.

[shaft]

By just being nice?

[branches]

And calm, but firm. And sometimes I think you're teasing me?

[shaft]

[ ... ]

That's a flattering description. Wow.

[branches]

I-it's not meant to be?? That's just the facts!!

[shaft]

[ Ruffles Tsuyukasa's hair...

Baby. Baby boy. ]

[branches]

[Claude it's like you WANT Tree to imprint on you as his new surrogate dad.]

Everyone keeps doing this, this week.

[shaft]

You haven't noticed we're a little tactile this week?

[ what was even the premise of this thread. anyway, claude is sipping tea now ]

[branches]

[The premise was it's after body announcement and Claude asked if he needs to protect the furniture from Tsuyukusa.]

I noticed, I just don't know why people keep doing this specifically!!

[shaft]

[ Also, now he's having tea. ]

Does it bother you?

[branches]

.... No, I guess it sort of feels nice.

[HMPH!!!]

But I don't want people thinking I'm a little kid, is all.

[shaft]

Well, your behaviour kind of makes it seem like you are...

[branches]

... [He makes a face that suggests he's been told this before.]

W-well... I'm trying my best to be useful.
