[ The transformation leaves him surprised, then amazed, then a little jealous — Dom leaves a gorey mess when the sun rises, the outer layer of a beast melting off his human form that he then has to dispose of every time, whereas Lauralae just … becomes herself again, with no evidence of the animal to be seen.
It's enough to make him forget how awkward this might look to outsiders, with his hand still positioned to caress her before he retracts it. Lauralae mentioned touching is no-go when she's in her human form, and while he doesn't understand the full scope of it, it's better to be safe (and respectful) regardless. Therefore: hands are kept to himself now. ]

Did I make you turn back? I didn't mean to.
