[Nick's quiet for a moment. He knows his partner, him being in a different form doesn't change that.]

He's in good hands. And I'll text you as soon as I see him.

[sassymaru]

I know that. And I know you will.

[He huddles a little more. If he had more of a tail than the stump, it would have tucked up underneath him.]

... he has antennas now. They're going to notice that.

[detectivetroll]

I know, I've seen them.

[Nick bites his lip, glancing in the rearview mirror before looking ahead.]

If he doesn't want to be outed, I'll... talk to his doctor, and nurses.

[And by 'talk' he means cajole, threaten, and/or bully with his badge.]

[sassymaru]

He showed you.

[It's less of a question than it is a sigh. At least that means there's less to explain.]

[Briefly, he glances over at him, "ears" perked.]

Whatever it takes, hm?

[detectivetroll]

Yeah, uh, a while ago. One of the times we went out drinking.

[...is that a bad thing? He hadn't thought it was, but now he's not sure.

Nick looks in the rearview mirror again, this time meeting Yuji's eyes. ...his robot wolf eyes.]

I've gotten him into enough shit, I might as well try to get him out of some.

[sassymaru]

That's not surprising then.

[Nah, he's not upset.]

[There's that brief moment of eye contact, then he turns back around, head on his giant robot dog paws.]

... Thank you.

[detectivetroll]

You're welcome.

[It's quiet, but then Nick shakes his head.]

And you don't have to thank me, anyway. He's a friend, I'd do it even if he wasn't dating you.

[sassymaru]

I'm grateful. Therefore I have to thank you.

It's a thing.
