"Push me around"?

[He sort of...cocks his head to one side.

like a frickin puppy]

It's one of my duties.

I don't mind it. And it's preferable to the alternative.

[nerf_rogues]

Well, even if he's your boss, it doesn't mean he gets a free pass to insult you.

[ok, he's FINALLY noticed the collar, but he's too nice to do anything but glance at it uncertainly \:s]

[hisfaithfuldog]

[he's started looking through the piles of tea again...there's got to be SOMETHING expensive enough for Ed in here >:S]

Yes he does.

[considers.....]

...besides. I think it's affectionate.

[nerf_rogues]

Affection-- ... ...

...

[oh.

It seems like he suddenly gets it now and rubs the back of his head, looking at the ground intently.]

U-uh... what about this?

[He picks up a bag of sencha. it's PRETTY expensive.]

1/2

[hisfaithfuldog]

...is there a problem?

[LOOMS A LITTLE entirely by accident]

[hisfaithfuldog]

[and then completely un-looms a few moments later at the tea.]

...this could work.

[although Ed usually seems to like FANCY BRITISH TEA]

[nerf_rogues]

[oh god!! don't loom at me

He flinches away slightly and holds out the tea. sorry ed, british tea is CHEAP SHIT and all the expensive teas are japanese/chinese]

N-no, no problems! I- just. Sorry.

[hisfaithfuldog]

...

...

[He takes the tea and steps back slightly, sitting down on a box behind him and looking slightly perturbed.

(he hasn't really scared someone when it's not at Ed's behest in a while)]

...hm.

[small doge sigh]

[nerf_rogues]

[ ? ? ?

To be fair, this guy seems pretty skittish, even if he's not THAT much smaller than kaiser weight-wise, at least.]

E-eh...?

[He relaxes slightly when Kaiser pulls back and sits down, but he looks pretty unsure.

...

He starts rifling through the tea again to occupy himself, nervously hoarding all of the herbal stuff.]

[hisfaithfuldog]

...I'm not going to hurt you.

[He rests his elbows on his knees so he can put his chin in his hands, watching Nerf attentively.]

[nerf_rogues]

[oh god!! WATCHING me]

Ah-aha, don't mind me, I'm just a bit, er. Jumpy, I suppose.

[the scary person he knows can't usually LOOM over him at least ;_;

He focuses on, apparently trying to find some specific kind. Maybe he's got his own....................... duties]

[hisfaithfuldog]

[...he raises an eyebrow at that, but keeps quiet about it. He knows "jumpy", even if he can't quite understand it.]

...

...are you getting this for someone?

[nerf_rogues]

I... well, maybe. She doesn't usually like it, maybe I shouldn't bother.

[He looks at his assorted collection, frowning. It's a bit too much to fit under his arms.]

[hisfaithfuldog]

[scooches his box closer....]

...I can carry some.

[sometimes Ed doesn't want him UNDERFOOT all the time (literally underfoot kaiser get off the damn floor) and he suspects now is one of those times]

[nerf_rogues]

O-oh, well, if you want to, but I can handle it, really!

[he's not sure how thistle will react to him bringing random dudes home

but if Kaiser wants to take some of the stuff falling out of his arms, he's free to]

[hisfaithfuldog]

[swoops down and catches some falling boxes in his arms 8|

he has a Helping instinct now this is dangerous for a kaiser]

Might as well.
