Not if you've been associating food with training. Which I guess is a game to them. [Right, so just gonna set one on the ground and then - carefully - put a hand on Roxy's back. First seeing how she takes a little bit of pressure and weight as he runs down the feathers, as though petting her]
Yeah, they see it as a game while people ten to take it all as work. [Well that was vague, wasn't it.
Still, Roxy didn't seem to mind the pressure and enjoyed the petting if her head tipping Jack's way was anything to go by- even if there was some strange attempt to birdy-nuzzle him at the attention. Like Gabriel had said, she was really affectionate.
No resistance to the pressure and weight, all the same.]
[Gabriel kept a close eye on Roxy, a hand placed along her neck and petting soothingly when she did show signs of being a bit unsure of what was going on—]
Hey, sweetie. You're alright. This isn't any different than me hooking that cart up.
[Gabriel's voice took a much softer tone that.. probably hadn't been heard in a damn long time as far as Jack was concerned.
His eyes never left the chocobo, petting over feathers as she went still before moving enough to set it all back.

...right?
They're about to find out. He's gentle and keeps a hold on it - just in case - but gives it a few seconds before moving for the straps]
So far, so good.
