Winter gear, acknowledgment, etc.,
Some small thoughts since I'm not feeling 100% today, but wanted to pop these into existence before they leave my brain/notes app forever:
• Jesper's hands and feet get chapped and roughed up in the colder months. Been thinking about having him in mittens/gloves, possibly hand-made by Yarrow. He absolutely would hate them, but has to use them. Maybe Yarrow can knit him some extra warm socks hehe. Been also considering that his long ass ears would get chapped, but not sure what we could do about that---maybe Yarrow can make him a lil winter version of a jester hood where he can pull his ears in and keep them nice and toasty.
• (For context, Dana and I make a little kissy noise at each other as a quiet, quick, little "love you" or noise of acknowledgement. Sometimes it's like when a cat does an "activation noise".) I've been thinking that Yarrow and Jesper could do something like this, but I'm not sure exactly what it would be... Could be something simple like quickly interlocking tails as they pass each other, or maybe instead of their tails, just running their open palms along the other's... Many things to consider. Noises, though, not sure.
I thought something like blowing a raspberry would be something Jesper would naturally find funny. They'd both do it, and Jesper would laugh every time, that's a super cute image... Not sure what else could work yet though.
• After much discussion and delegation, Jesper has a little bitty amount of pubic hair. Not a whole bush situation going on, but enough to notice.
• Related, he definitely just openly fixes his junk or does the wide-step to fix his balls, openly, not a care in the world. Dana suggested that he'd trip doing the wide-step. I'm on board, and think it's probably realistic for that little guy.
