Xe settled back, her spine against the stone, Biz’s comfortable weight resting on her. She could feel the tenor of his breath—rise and fall, up and down, over and over again. It was soft; soothing. She couldn’t help but match tempo with him, the slower breaths helping to calm her.\n\n“Look at me,” she chided herself. “Supposed to be the rock for my pokemon, but here you are, comforting [i]me.[/i]” Biz chuffed again, looking up at her, and then reached up one blue-furred paw to caress Xe’s cheek. She leaned into it with a sigh. This sort of tactile, physical closeness… even with a pokemon, it helped calm one down immensely. “I guess you’re right, Biz,” she said. “I’m getting upset over things I can’t control.”\n\nThey rested like that for minutes, Biz’s weight and warmth settling comfortingly into her, his paw still holding her cheek as she leaned into it.
