[ And Squeaker does nip him for that one, having slipped from Johnny's shoulder to land on Jack's reproachfully, nipping at an earlobe before observing the new animal at a distance. Johnny smiles when he senses that protectiveness -- their banter back and forth is Johnny's new normal, you see, and he's amused when he sees the gentle side of Jack slip past those defenses from time to time.

Gently rubbing the rounded belly, he gives it a fond little cuddle after, giving Jack a toothy grin. Challenge accepted. He pulls his shirt up with his free hand, giving Jack a good look at the pectorals and the abs. It's his masterpiece, okay. ]
