Raoul smiled tiredly at her. "Thanks, babe," he said waving weakly, "Hopefully I'll be up by the time you get back."
Raoul laid down on his bed and closed his eyes. He had to wait for her to leave before he could really fall asleep.

Ammeryn balanced the plate of pasta salad on one arm as she gently nudged the door open with her other, peeking slowly into the room. She had eaten slowly, spent the meal with her parents to talk and take up as much time as possible, ensuring that Raoul got a proper nap.
But when Ammeryn stepped inside and set the plate down on the desk, it was not Raoul she saw on the bed. It was a red panda, curled on its back in the center of the mattress, forepaws splayed up in the air and twitching slightly as if it were dreaming.
Ammeryn's eyebrows rose.

Red panda Raoul was deep in dream land. He had been eating mangoes and was now napping (Yes, you can take naps in your dreams). Then he smelled vanilla, and Amme appeared under the tree he was sleeping in.
In the real world, Raoul rolled onto his stomach and purred quietly. He reached up with a paw and scratched his ear, making a "mow" noise.

Ammeryn chewed on her thumbnail and bit back the aw that she wanted so very much to make.
Maybe she should come back later.
Ammeryn tiptoed towards the door, leaving the plate where Raoul would see it. She gripped the handle and pulled up to open the door, producing a loud click. Ammeryn winced and glanced over her shoulder at the red panda.

At the sound Panda Raoul bolted up completely awake and stared towards the click. His brown eyes widened in a mixture of shock and fear.
Panda Raoul slid off the bed and scurried along the floor trying to find a hiding spot, though it was probably too late now.

Ammeryn quirked her mouth to one side, watching the fluffy creature skitter around the room. She dropped to one knee and tried to catch his attention.
"Raoul, you silly thing, come here. You're acting like I'm going to curb-stomp you, or something."

Panda Raoul froze, yep she'd found out. He hung his head defeated and walked over to her. He rubbed his head against her calf affectionately. Why did this have to happen to him?

Ammeryn smiled and scritched behind Raoul's ears.
"What's with the panic attack?" she asked, sitting down fully and pushing her hair over one shoulder with her free hand.
"I brought you food," she added, almost as an afterthought.

Panda Raoul leaned into Ammeryn's hand purring.
At the mention of food he sniffed the air. Mmmmm, food. Raoul's hunger snapped him out of his sleepy stupor, he could feel his self starting to change back. He dashed into his closet and changed back.
"Sorry about that," Raoul said loudly enough for her to hear. He put on some jeans and slipped on a button up shirt, but he only cared to button the middle two. He stepped out of the closet and ran his fingers nervously through his hair and grinned at her. "Hi," he said and waved sheepishly.

Still seated on the floor, Ammeryn giggled. "Hi yourself," she teased, returning his wave by lifting her hand and wiggling her fingers.
She wanted to ask about the whole hey-so-yeah-I-turn-into-a-red-panda thing. But he had seemed so uncomfortable with it that she wasn't sure how Raoul would handle it. So she contented herself with pointing out the plate on the desk and smiling appreciatively-- Raoul's clothing choice provided a rather glorious view of his collarbones.

"Oh yeah," Raoul said going over and sitting at the desk, "Thanks." He began to eat. "Mmmmm, this is really good," He smiled down at her, "did you help make this?"
Raoul was relieved that Amme hadn't mentioned anything about him turning into a panda. But then again if she was going to be his girlfriend she deserved to know . . . maybe after he ate.

"Nah, all I did was make the vinaigrette. Rhythan wouldn't let me help much today." She grinned. "He said that I'd seemed distracted."
She strode over to the other side of the room and read through the game booklet while he ate, glancing up every know and then to watch him. The disheveled look worked well for him, she mused.
Again, she wanted to ask about his wereform. But she wasn't going to bother him while he was enjoying his food.

Raoul finished his food and smiled at her. "I'm sure it would've been even more delicious if you had helped more." Raoul smirked at her, "And what did he mean by 'distracted'?"
Raoul stood and threw his trash away, he would be sure to take it out tomorrow before it began to stink.

Ammeryn closed the game booklet and put it back inside the case, shrugging. She nibbled on her lower lip and looked at him again, resting her forearms on the knees of her crossed legs.
"Apparently I'd been spacing out and giggling randomly. Which would make sense, I guess, because I can't remember a thing from English today. I mean, I wrote notes, but I don't remember what half the stuff is. Oh well. I'll be able to figure it out, no prob." She made the OK sign with her fingers, nodding to affirm her statement.
"Anyway. Did you sleep well? We can always wait until tomorrow if you're still tired."

Well, this would be an introduction to his weirdness for her. "Nah, I'm good," he answered, "I'm not tired anymore, if I wasn't I'd still be fuzzy."
He turned to her as his smirk grew wider. "And WHY were you giggling randomly?" Raoul sat on his bed next to her fully amused and intrigued.

Ammeryn tapped her chin, faking a thoughtful expression. Ah, so he shifted forms whenever he fell asleep. That... was an odd little quirk to have.
"Oh," she said loftily, "just random stuff. I believe 'But how? How can you love me? I can't even hold my liquor.' was included in there somewhere." She smiled up at him from her spot on the floor, leaning against the bed itself.
"And that shade of pink looks lovely, by the way."

Raoul chuckled, "I'm glad that my lack of alcohol tolerance is amusing." He made a bowing gesture with his hand and said, "I'm glad that you approve of my pink attire."
He sighed and was quiet for a little while. "So," he asked quietly, "do you have any questions?"

Ammeryn pulled her knees up to her chest and leaned her head back against the bed.
"Yeah. Do you change every time you sleep? Or is it just when you're really tired?"

Raoul scratched his head as he tried to form how to properly answer. "I think I can change shape whenever I want but I never really want to. For some reason whenever I get really tired and whenever I fall asleep, I turn into a red panda." He shook his hair out of his face. "Were beings is another thing that runs in the family," he added.

Ammeryn nodded and watched Raoul's reflection on the tv screen. She took it he didn't like his other form.
She didn't really have any other questions-- none that she felt were her business, anyway.
"Did you eat well?" she asked, changing the subject. This was something they could come back to on another day. "If you're still hungry, I can fetch you more noms."

Raoul chuckled, glad for the change in subject. "I'm fine, babe," he said smiling down at her. He patted the bed next to him, "Come up here, so we can play. Assuming that you still want to play in the 2 hours before curfew." He lightly shrugged, "Plus it will be easier to flirt with you this way."

Ammeryn smiled. She stood, careful to smooth the pleats in her skirt, and took the proffered spot next to the lad. "Smooth," she commented, "Very smooth." She nudged him with her elbow.
"Flirting? What flirting? I have witnessed no flirting."

"Well, that would be because I haven't started yet," Raoul explained before wrapping an arm around Amme's waist and pulling her into a side hug. "Plus, I feel like I need to thank you for getting me noms," he said as he gently kissed her on the cheek. "Hmmm, you're such a good girlfriend," he nuzzled his face into her hair and smiled.

Ammeryn laughed and folded her arms around his shoulders. "Aw, you're welcome."
She petted his hair and grinned. "Already? It's only been a few hours," she joked. "If I'm put on a pedestal too early, I'll be destined to disappoint."
