Touched (Spinelsun gen)
Title: Touched

Prompt: Spinelsun and Sakura. Why does he let Sakura hold him in canon? For![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
suppis_tenshi.
Pairing: Spinel gen
Other: n/a
Excerpt: She makes people comfortable, Sakura does. He hadn't quite understood that before meeting her.
Spinel is not a cat; he is a person. He will not be randomly picked up by strangers and he does not lick himself clean. He does not purr and he does not beg for food. He has very clearly defined boundaries.
Of course, Ruby is always breaking these, always grabbing him without permission and giving him silly nicknames. He puts up with it because she is his sister and he does love her, even though sometimes he wants to take his true form and pounce on her, just to make her stop moving for a minute. (She'd probably just want to wrestle if he did.)
Perhaps it is because she knows Cerberus, but when Spinel meets Sakura, he senses a good deal of respect from her. She knows he is a person, not a talking cat. She offers a hand in friendship, and Spinel surprises himself a little by stepping into her hands, letting her fingers stroke his fur. She is hesitant about it, and careful. He lifts his neck and shuts his eyes.
She makes people comfortable, Sakura does. He hadn't quite understood that before meeting her. It takes him a long time to warm up to people normally (not that he meets many). Even Kaho had been treated to many more stares than pleasantries at first.
But Sakura feels like family... and he supposes she is, Clow's heir and Fujitaka's daughter. He can see why Eriol watches so carefully over her.
She watches carefully over everyone else.
