Data is having trouble training his cat. Q comes along with an offer to help - in his own special way. Meaning Data suddenly finds himself a whole lot smaller and...furry. AND that his cat has a reputation of which he was unaware.
But could Q have another agenda in mind, apart from 'helping' Data and annoying Picard? -

Summary
He had warm hands, Data noticed. Strong, warm, rough hands. And one was simply… resting there. On top of Data’s. He knew he was able to process so many inputs, but there was part of him wondering irrationally if extended contact would cause his sensors to overload.
“Data?” Riker questioned, bringing the rest of Data’s focus back to the visual in front of him. “Are you alright?” His eyebrows quirked in concern and a small frown pinched the edges of his lips. Data didn’t like it; Riker had a very aesthetically pleasing face, and his expression threw all of the proportions off.
“Perfectly fine, sir,” Data reassured him. “I am simply curious: this action in which we are currently engaging… is it at all similar to the traditional affectionate gesture of ‘holding hands’?”
Riker looked down, then back up at Data. “I mean”—and Riker’s grip shifted, slipping under Data’s hand to link their fingers together—“if you want it to be?”
