a discorded timeline

She grumbled playfully at Halo when the other woman insisted on Inoki going in first, and brushed her face against her new friends' cheek before daintily hopping into the hollow tree. It would certainly be a tight squeeze, but they were both small and she had no qualms about cuddling closely with someone else. She circled a few times, lavender still clutched in her jaws as she determined where the best spot to lay down would be, before settling on her side with her face poking out towards the entrance. Inoki figured Halo would prefer to curl up further inwards and more out of sight, so she was happy to be a buffer between the other woman and the outside world.

She set the lavender in front of her muzzle, right at the entrance, and splayed her front legs towards the inside of the hollowed tree, so that if Halo was open to it she could wrap them around her friend to better share their warmth together during the night. Inoki was sometimes a bit of an aggressive cuddler, liking to take control and almost protectively grasp whoever she was curling up with, and she hoped Halo wouldn't mind that too much. "You coming in?" She said with a wiggle of her front paws, inviting the other woman to hop in and curl up next to her. "Got a perfect spot for you right here."
