Briarmask perhaps had a point…he knew he felt re-energized now and would likely be able to be more productive tomorrow. He didn’t forget his manners, though his bites were greedier than before as he felt his energy restore, but then he felt a presence closer to him.
Briarmask’s scent flowed around him, and he froze for a brief heartbeat. Lifting his head sharply, he blinked at her in surprise at her question. His face? When he…oh dear. She noticed his facial expression when she moved farther away. Now what? The question seemed innocent and genuine, she wasn’t teasing him. He hastily cleaned his face and whiskers to buy time, trying hard to keep himself from becoming too flustered at their renewed closeness, before looking back at her and blinking warmly. “I-I was just a little…sad I guess when you scooted away.” He admitted bashfully. A genuine question deserved a genuine answer right?
Stars he sounded silly. “I mean, I was enjoying our camaraderie and closeness.” Yeah, sure. That made sense right? He failed at keeping himself from feeling flustered, completely taken off guard by the question. Not the question itself but the way she asked it, like she truly just wanted to know. She’s so…pure and innocent. C’mon Acornfall. Keep it together!

Oh. That was... an unexpected answer. Sadness... so that's what that looks like, it explains why she didn't like it. But the reason behind the emotion makes her lips twitch upwards. Is this what other cats call cute? She thinks this definitely fits the definition, cute. What an endearing little word. Of course, it was only a matter of time before she would realize just how close their muzzles are to each other, leading her to let out a startled squeak and jump away. Her fur fluffs up in embarrassment as she gets over her surprise, standing many mouselengths away. But wait, wasn't he sad that she had scooted away? She doesn't want to see him make that face again, so she slowly pads back over to him, closer than she was before. As she sits down, her pelt brushes his, she's obviously still a bit uneasy, but she's doing it so he doesn't get sad again. Ah, but just because she's sitting close to him, it doesn't mean that she has to make eye contact. Okay, but a peek at him every once and a while can't hurt, just to make sure he's not sad.
"Welll... you can feel better now," She says quietly, glancing at his face for a second.
