AN OK we barely started and I messed up- BUT rest assured I wanna say the first exam was easy. How about for today we do some soft TLC with physical affection wolfie burrito style.

He notices the way you’re holding yourself together.
Too carefully. Too quietly.
Your smile is there, but thin—pulled tight like thread stretched too far. You answer him when he speaks, nod when he asks questions, but your shoulders stay hunched, your hands clenched in your sleeves like you’re bracing against something invisible.
It itches at his instincts.
Your scent is wrong—not fear, not danger, but frustration and ache, layered with the sharp tang of holding it all in. His wolf stirs restlessly under his skin, pacing, unhappy. You’re distressed, and you’re not curling in toward him like you usually do.
That won’t do.
He doesn’t say anything at first. Just watches you for a moment longer than usual, golden eyes soft but intent. Then he disappears into the bedroom while you’re distracted, ears flicking as he listens to your breathing from down the hall.
When you finally follow—drawn by a soft rustling sound—you stop in the doorway.
The bed is… different.
Pillows piled high at the headboard, blankets dragged and folded into a thick, uneven mound. Your spare throw is tucked around the edges like a barrier, sheets pulled loose and rumpled just right. It looks less like a bed and more like a carefully constructed nest.
He’s in the center of it.
Sitting low, broad back relaxed, arms resting open at his sides. His tail gives a slow, hopeful thump when he sees you.
“…What did you do?” you ask softly.
His ears flick back, a little shy. “You were upset,” he says, like that explains everything. “And not… settling.”
He pats the blankets between his legs. Once. Inviting.
“Come here.”
Something in your chest loosens before you even move.
The moment you step closer, his hands are on you—gentle but firm, guiding you in without resistance. He tugs you down into the warmth, arranging you with instinctive care, pulling blankets up around your sides while shifting until you’re tucked against his chest.
Then he curls.
Big body folding over you, one arm wrapped snug around your shoulders, the other draped low across your back. His chin rests atop your head, breath warm and steady, a quiet rumble building in his chest.
Not quite a growl. Not quite a purr.
His weight is grounding—heavy in the way that makes your thoughts slow, your breathing even out. He presses his thighs around your legs, cocooning you completely, as if daring the world to reach you through him.
You let out a shaky breath you didn’t realize you were holding.
“There,” he murmurs. “Better.”
Your fingers curl into his fur on their own.
He doesn’t ask what’s wrong. Doesn’t push you to explain. Instead, his hand moves in slow, repetitive strokes up your arm—thumb brushing, fingers warm and sure. Every touch says the same thing: you’re safe, you’re held, you don’t have to be strong right now.
When you sag fully into him, he exhales in relief, arms tightening just a fraction.
“That’s it,” he whispers. “I’ve got you. Stay as long as you need.”
And wrapped in his nest, tucked under his protective warmth, you finally do.
The urge to name an evil business in my comic smth with the initials V.O.R. Enterprise v. the fact that that's a long-ass business name and also I should probably make it smth else so it will actually be taken as a serious threat :/
hm... writing smth set in the distant future is sure... interesting.
I’m having characters talk about media (usually pretty vaguely when I have done it in the past), but the instance I’m working on right now I truly do not know what direction I wanna go with it? Bc I could just make up something truly random? but I could also have it be something that already does exist and just not...be very specific
