The moment Soh’s muzzle presses into her palm, Flora’s fingers instinctively move in gentle circles, tracing along the soft velvet of her friend’s nose. Her aqua eyes widen with delight, lips curving into a grin that’s equal parts awe and disbelief. "You know," she laughs, the sound bubbling out of her like sunlight breaking through cloud. "I just realized that I'm petting your nose right now."
Her hand lingers a heartbeat longer before Soh’s form ripples and reforms, feathers melting into skin, light into limbs. Flora’s grin only grows. "Gods," she breathes, voice pitching upward as she throws her arms around her best friend in an exuberant squeeze. "You’re stunning, Soh! That's like, the prettiest shift I've ever seen?"
Pulling back just enough to catch her breath, she gives a little shake of her head, curls bouncing as gold glints at her ears. "No, no, you first!"

I can't stop you putting roots in my dreamland
