Always thinking about FraPru mutual grooming; doing each other’s hair and the like, especially when Gil wore his long in the queue… Fran getting to work his fingers through the pale locks and watching Gil melt into his touch, and then vice versa in the quiet hours shared in dying firelight,,

YESSS......YES

lmao they're such pack animals aren't they

i am very fond of the mental image of françois laying with his head in gilbert's lap while gilbert rants about something that annoys him. françois just listens with an amused smirk on his face and makes French Noises to show he's listening (ah bah oui......hein.......euhh jsais pas.....(blows air out through lips like a horse) peut-être alors....mais non hein......alors euhh.......c'est dommage alors....)

also françois has figured out the exact right way to scritch gilbert on the head so he becomes Tractable lmao. he's been trying to ease this man's head into his lap since 1701! sssh bertiiii it's okayyyy just lay quietly françois pinky promises he is not plotting anything and it's perfectly safe (he is so plotting) (gilbert knows) (gilbert lays down against his better judgement)

and in conclusion your honor,

The unicorn, through its intemperance and not knowing how to control itself, for the love it bears to fair maidens forgets its ferocity and wildness; and laying aside all fear it will go up to a seated damsel and go to sleep in her lap, and thus the hunters take it.

françois is the lady and the hunters, he has the range!
