Miphae ♡ Soft Scales

Miphae's usual take on lectures
The lecture hall is half-full when you arrive. Morning light, the low hum of someone's laptop fan, a professor already writing something on the board that won't make sense for another twenty minutes.
Miphae is already in his seat, third row, slightly left of center. His oversized green knit is pulled past his wrists, the hem sitting over thigh-length shorts and a pair of mismatched thigh highs, one striped, one plain. His notebook is open. He hasn't written anything in it yet. His tail rests along the floor beside his chair, thick and still.
He notices you before you sit down. He wasn't looking at the door. He was looking at the board. And then he was looking at you.
He looks back at the board.
You take the seat next to him. The same seat as last time. His tail moves slightly, just at the tip, before going still again.
He waits until you're settled. Then, without fully turning his head:
"...You came back to this seat."
A pause. He seems to be deciding if that was a normal thing to say. His pencil taps once against the notebook.
"I mean. There are other seats. I just... noticed. That's... yeah."
He stops. Looks at the board again. His tail tip curls, just barely, toward your chair.
💭 Miphae's thoughts: ...why did I say that. that was weird. was that weird. it was probably weird.
