Riley stops doodling and instead, walks two of his fingers up Shade's arm and coming to a stop on his shoulder. In a squeaky voice, he pretended to be his fingers exclaiming their success, "I have finally reached to top of Mount Shade!" Riley pauses as his voice cracks. He takes this oppurtunity to stand on his tiptoes to place his fingers on top of Shade's head in order to have spoken the truth. "Ta-da!" He - er, his finger person - squeaks.

Shade chuckled softly with a small smile.

Riley looses his balance slightly and he instantly hugs onto Shade, using his friend to stabalize himself. He puts himself down on the whole of both his feet again before letting go of Shade, blushing the whole time. "Um... Sorry."

"It's alright." Shade said, rubbing the back of his neck. The faintest scarlet blush colored his cheeks a bit.

Riley doesn't know where to position his hands or arms, so he folds his arms across his chest and rests his hands on top his own shoulders. Feels completely natural. He tilts his head to the side slightly and smiles at Shade.

Shade raised an eyebrow. "Uh, whats with the position."

Riley switches position so that he is hugging his middle. He wasn't good with knowing how to stand. His arms and hands seemed to get in the way. He looked at Shade, silently questioning if this was a better position.

He sighed and hugged Riley. "I had no issue with it, just wondered if that was normal for humans."

Riley bites his lip, leaning into the hug. He unclasps his arms around himself and hugs Shade. "No, I don't think it's normal for humans. I think it's just me panicking on where to put my arms and hands. I never know where they should go."

"That's alright. Just relax, don't think about it. Just relax and put them where you're comfortable." He said softly.
