Tobias: ((back))
Mark: (::petpet:[]
Tobias: ::mmrrs as he was petted:: thank you for letting me come to town with you master
Mark: ::shrugs a little and sits on the bed looking tired already:: ... Of course ... see what a little good behavior can do for you?
Tobias: ::nodnods and sits on the floor next to him, resting his muzzle on his knee:: yes sir
Mark: ::rubs on your head gently mainly between the eyes smiling a bit:: ... Ah ... you know you can be pretty cute ...
Tobias: ::wags and idlely plays with his short leash::
Mark: ::undoes your lead and hands it to you:: ... Put this where it belongs and come right back ... ::he curled onto his side on the bed as he waited::
Tobias: ::nods and placed it on the desser next to his clothes and sits next to the bed::
Mark: ::reaches out and tugs on your collar:: ... up here pup ... I didnt bring you to sit on the floor the whole time ...
Tobias: ::follows his master's paw up onto the bed:: sorry sir
Mark: ::nodnods slowly:: ... mmhmm ... ::pulls you into his body tightly and licks between your eyes once::
Tobias: ::mmmrrrs softly and nuzzles his master's soft neck:: have I been a good puppy?
Mark: So far ... ::rubs on your back idly for a few moments:: ... I intend to take you out to meet a few others tonight ... you -will- behave in front of them ... understand.
Tobias: ::nods:: yes sir! I will be a very good puppy!
Mark: ::smiles a bit and nips your nose:: ... yes you will be.
Tobias: ::flinches a bit from the nip:: yes sir, I will make you proud
Mark: ::purrs quietly:: ... Im sure you will ... of course no one is going to expcet you to be up to Jeffery's standards ... because ... well ... you just -arent- him ... but Im sure you will be acceptable enough
Tobias: ::rests his nose in the crook of his neck:: who will I meet master?
Mark: ::toys with the fur on your back for a bit:: ... Im not sure ... well see who shows up for dinner ...
Tobias: should I cook?
Tobias: ::mmrrs as his fur was played with, glad his master had given him a tight little singlet to wear, one that left most of his back and chest bare::
Mark: ::chuckles softly:: ... No pup were going out for dinner ... in fact theres a banquet here in the ball room tonight. We both will be in attendence.
Tobias: will I have my leash? I don't want to get lost
Mark: Of course ... it is still a public place ...
Tobias: ::huggles his master:: thank you
Mark: ::murrs very quietly:: ... Jeffery is the only one trusted with -that- kind of thing ... You have a long way to go ... but you are getting better ::petpets on your head and down your back and sides slowly::
Tobias: ::yawns and falls asleep until dinnertime::
Mark: ::when you wake up he was gone .. well just not in the bedroom anymore::
Tobias: ::yawns and rises:: master?
Tobias: ::looks around, panicking::
Mark: ::leans out of the bathroom half dressed to the nines:: Time for you to get ready pup ... this is formal so wear something proper ...
Tobias: proper? ::looks at the things his master gave him and spots some nice blue clothes:: these?
Mark: ::shakes his head slowly:: ... No the black set pup ... there should be a little bow tie int here with it as well ... ::already back in the bathroom finishing puting himself together::
Tobias: ::picks up the clothes and starts to change::
Mark: ::steps out of the bathroom wearing a rather fitting tux of sorts ... almost stylized in a way but it was exactly what it was supposed to be lacking only one thing ... a tie in its place was just a sliver button:: ... Are you getting ready pup?
Tobias: ::whimpers:: master...::had his pants on but was bare from the waist up:: I can't figure this out..::was holding the shirt and tie with all their confusing buttons and such::
Mark: ::chuckles softly:: ... ah well your going to learn something right now then ... ::holds the shirt up by is shoulders:: ... first in go your arms ...
Tobias: ::struggles with it and finally gets it on::
Mark: ::grins faintly cause after all this was amusing:: Very good ... now we do theses ::sits on the bed and sits you in his knee (facing him of course) and does up your buttons one at a time slowly enough so you could se how they worked:: ... hmm ... ::sets you back on the floor:: now tuck in your shirt.
Tobias: ::tucks in his shirt and looks presentable::
Mark: ::smiles and nods:: ... Much improved. Now stay still. ::kneels down and ties your little bow tie for you and then buttons your cuffs:: ... there we are ... you look quite fine pup. ::laps you a gentle little kiss on the muzzle:: Quite attractive indeed.
Tobias: ::mmrrs and wags madly at the compliment:: thank you master ::blush:: but you look better
Mark: ::grins a bit:: ... Of course pup. Now keep yourself clean while I ring downstairs. ::goes off to the livingroom area to make his call::
Tobias: ::stays seated::
Mark: ::comes back moments later:: ... Well -they- are ready ... so get your lead on and well go.
Tobias: ::grabs his leash and attaches it before handing in to his master::
Mark: ::takes it lightly and jerks you towards him - not too hard but enough so youd move:: ... Ah alright then ... I have to make sure your not going to get lost.
Tobias: ::meeps softly and stands close by his side:: yes sir
Mark: ::rubs on your head gently as he leads you towards the door:: ... itll be alright pup just mind your manners and things will go very easy ...
Tobias: ::follows right after his master all the way down to the ballroom::
Mark: ::this was a simple night for you ... all you had to do was be introduced over a few times but other then that it was mostly you being quite while master enjoyed his freinds ... during a minor break in the conversation:: ... Are you enjoying yourself pup?
Tobias: ::looks up from where he had been holding his master's cummurbund:: yes sir, although all the people make me a bit nervous...may I go to the little puppy's room?
Mark: ::eyes you oddly and speaks quietly:: ... How badly do you have to go?
Tobias: ::looks nervous, his ears flattening:: I can hold it if master desires
Mark: If you can ... it would be far worse if you told me you could and then didnt. If you cant then just tell me and I will excuse us both. ... Just keep in mind if you cause any trouble you will pay for it dearly. This is not home where if something slips no one knows. If you mess up here everyone will see you ... and me as well. So just tell me pup ... can you hold it or not? ::still spoke quietly so as not to draw attention::
Tobias: ::speaking very softly, his voice full of fear and nervousness:: maybe ten minutes master
Mark: ::nods and looks up to the others:: ... Exsuce me ... I have a rather personal matter to attend to. Ill be right back with you all in just a moment. ::stands slowly and tugs your by the lead off towards the bathroom and once out of range of the others:: ... See its not that hard pup. ... its far better to excuse yourself then cause a scene.
Tobias: yes sir ::nods head, ears back and tail down in shame::
Mark: ::leads you into the bathroom and leads you right into a stall and stands very close behind you all the while:: ... Alright pup ... unbutton your pants and relieve yourself ::his paws rested almost comfortingly on your shoulders::
Tobias: yes sir ::unbuttons and relieves himself with a soft sigh:: I'm sorry master ::flush and buttons up::
Mark: ::turns you around and picks you up holding you just under your arms and then holds you agsint his body:: ... Dont be so scared pup. I know this is all new to you but I dont want you to be so worried. So far youve done the best that can be expeceted. ::rubs your side gently:: This is nothing major to worry about. Im very pleased that you spoke up ... you have no idea how upset I wouldve been if you made a scene out there.
