I never really thought about it being less of a thing. Humans wouldn't be used to having extra bits, I guess.

It's probably more related to the four-legged versions and not me. I'm more like a human than a normal animal. [ Usually. ] Tricks? Well, I find a lot of mine comes out and sheds the most when I shower, so there's not huge issues. Otherwise it's just something you're used to when you've always been a deer.

I don't have to get used to shed fur on clothes, I've always had shed fur be a thing.

Some of us are more hairless than other humans, even if they have a lot of hair coming out of their scalp. Well, were more hairless, I should say.

[ Not that Louis needed that particular information, but it gave an idea of how unused to hair, much less shedding hair was. ]

So I'm just stuck trying to get as much possible out during showers until all this grey's out, then... I was hoping for some grooming techniques that could get that done in a faster span of time, but I'll deal. It just doesn't look as good on black clothes.

[ Then... Back to a very faun thought. That is to say, Louis saying he's more like a human than a normal animal has gotten a thought to grow more prevalent as it festers. ]

So does that mean you don't have the whole mating season nonsense? Lucky...

Just be sure to brush it regularly and you shouldn't run into too many problems. You know those wire brushes that are good at really getting anything loose? That'll help.

I don't have issues with mating season, no. Again, I'm more like a human.

Ah... Right. Wire brushes.

[ He totally knows what you're talking about. Yup. Well, he'll find out better when Caren tells him about the curry combs as a good second reminder. ]

See, I figured having been human before all this, I'd get out of that. With how easily it started affecting me before any other changes hit, it could've gone either way. Then what else do you deal with that you found out humans don't?

[ It seems like an easier list to get through than what's similar between him and deer. ]

Ah, well. Maybe your being human makes it worse. You don't know how to control or deal with any impulses that come from being an animal because you haven't always been one.

Maybe...

[ Though it's not as if Judar was the first one around Louis for that. Which, in thinking about the shaggiest goat man, seems like a good thing to use. ]

Anything else that you had to teach your goat friend about, or he'd go asking you about? Despite all that hair seeming natural for him, there's no way he was always a shaggy beast.

Mostly about shedding. And...if it getting weird and patchy is normal.

It is normal.

[ That's it... ]

I think it's because the seasons are changing is why there's questions. It'll pass, though.

I figured it would be, with having figured out that coats can just change with the seasons. Mine's less grey-ish yellow.

[ When things even out, he'll be happy to show it off. Though that's a Judar thing, liking to show what he's got off, than a faun liking to flaunt. He thinks it's a pretty coat, or will be. And looking at his shoulder's one of the reasons why the topic of coats drifts just slightly to the right. ]

... D'you have spots? Or ever had spots? I never really saw that many deer before, and it was from a pretty big distance, but I don't remember them having any.

I don't have spots. Sometimes deer do, but not me.

[ There's almost an amused lift in his tone at that. ]

The color does change a little seasonally, though what you see on my head is pretty much what I am head-to-toe.

[ See, that's enough for Judar to think he was missing out on something, or some great meaning. So the talk of changing seasonal coats is gone for a bit. ]

Are spots supposed to mean something? What determines whether or not a deer'll have them?

[ While there's plenty of practical and factual answers to this, it's certainly an opening for those that'd normally troll on opportunity. ]
