… curiosity killed the cat &
satisfaction brought him back

The familiar painted woman turns her head towards him swiftly and a smile blossoms beautifully, just as Dahmer had hoped. A small part of him had expected her to be disappointed to see him, as if she had taken her leave of Tephra simply because she didn't want to be around him. He's almost overwhelmingly relieved to see a smile instead of a frown, and he, too, forgets their old game and closes the remaining distance between his soft muzzle and her cheek.
Dahmer's dark nostrils flutter rapidly as he inhales Nikoline's scent, which had been absent from the sulfur-tinged air in their home for quite some time. Warmth fills his chest and he pulls away to get a better look at the overo mare. "Of course I did," his voice low and playful in her ear. His blue-eyed gaze watches the curl of her smile and the sun patches across her sleek coat before he offers a nod at her inquiry. "Of course. And there's quite a lot I'll have to catch you up on," he muses, before realizing his own assumption, "If you decide you might like to come back."
He gives her another small bump with his nose before changing the subject, hoping not to force a decision on the mare.
"But first, I'd like to hear what beautiful Niko has been doing."
