[Which is why she's not moving too fast. Also, she still wants to keep an eye out for people. Maybe a world room would be best...]

[Nothing to see here, folks, Riku's just walking her werewolf?

He wouldn't mind a world room, but oddly enough he doesn't particularly want to go to Halloween Town. Maybe somewhere with a little more... plantlife or something.]

[She's thinking of one of the fields, actually. Not the flower field, but one she knows has a lot of ground and is pretty much just... you know, nature. It's out of the way, but still nearby, and she'd be able to find him easily, so... Riku will be leading him that way, slowly, glancing at him often to make sure he's okay.]

[One of the fields would... probably be perfect, actually. By the time they've reached the room, he'll be on all fours, unable to keep completely upright for long yet. He doesn't seem to be in great pain, at least?]

Here we go.

[Riku's glad for that. She comes to a full stop outside the door, leaning down a bit to put a hand on his shoulder, trying to be somewhat comforting.]

[He huffs quietly, wagging a bit when she does that. It's appreciated~.]

[Well, good. That's relieving. Now she'll be pushing the door open, gesturing for him to move inside. It's a pretty nondescript field. A couple trees scattered, more around the edges (cleverly hiding the wall), but mostly lots of open space with tall grass. And leaf piles, because it's autumn.]

[He'd love to take off at this point, but she's still got the leash. Once he's inside though, he'll be rising back up onto his hind legs and sniffing at the air.]

[Would she be able to unclip it if she tried? She wasn't exactly intending to walk him around the place.]

[She should be able to! He'll be waiting ~~not so~~ patiently for her to do just that, actually.]

[Hold your horses, buddy. She moves her hands to the collar, yes, but rather than remove the leash she stops, looking him in the eye.]

I have to go get something for when you change back. I want you to stay in here, got it?

[His ears flick forward as he tries to figure out what she would be getting, before he realizes it's most likely clothing. So he just nods, then leans in to bump her chin with his nose. Enjoy the wet.]

[Among other things, but yes. Clothes are a priority here. She snorts at that, pulling her face away from his and trying not to grin. He should hear if not feel the leash being removed from the collar.]

Alright. There. You're free.

[He nudges her once in a sort of "see you" gesture and then takes off, limping but definitely fast.]

[She'll watch him go before turning and exiting the room, shutting the door behind her. It's tempting to put up some sort of barrier, but he does seem to be in something of his right mind this way, so... She'll just make sure she's fast, and run the entire time to get the things she needs.]

[When she returns, he'll be wiggling around on his back on some grass a good distance from the door. ~~Shut up it's totally a canine thing.~~]

[You know what, she's just going to stare for a minute, and try not to laugh. Once she's reeled in the amusement, she shrugs the large bag she brought back off of her shoulder and drops it by the door.]

[He pauses mid-wiggle, head raising as he looks over at her. Then he's rolling over and standing, heading over on all fours to say hi.]

[Well hello there. She just shuts the door and leans against it. He's going to be pissed at her when he's human if he remembers her being this amused, isn't he?]

[He'll mostly remember all this, and won't really blame her for being amused. She might get frowns though.]

[Like that's anything new. What if he gets ear pets when he's close enough?]

[Then she'll get him closing his eyes and leaning into it.]

[Earscritches are go. She feels totally justified after all that time he spent petting her when she was a cat.]

[If she gets brave enough, she should try to find his leg-thumping spot. ~~Hint, it's along the edge of his ribs.~~]

[Unfortunately, despite his behavior, Riku can't get over the fact that this is Red, and is not actually planning on putting her hands too far down.]
