"Good answer Matthew," says Erik. Look out Max, he's gunning for your spot as favorite Pet.
The vampire master reaches out and strokes his hand over Matthew's head, nails digging into his scalp softly. It's a gesture that's become so natural, he barely needs to think about.
He chuckles to himself. "As if you or Max could keep anything secret from me in my own house? But do not worry, it is the gesture I appreciate just as much. And I will try not to snoop."
Max comes up next to Matthew, to-go sack in hand, and stares longingly at Erik's other hand like a jealous puppy. So the vampire starts petting him too.
Look at them, thinks Erik fondly, his beautiful (mostly well-behaved) pets. They are his pride. And he is pleased to see them both looking so happy today.
"All right," he tells them with a playful pat to the backs of their heads, "To the car. Go."
