I have a horde of plushies and I have no shame in having them cause a lot of them are from creators I adore or of characters who are adorable and bring me comfort. People need to just mind their own business lol.

The sudden shout for help startled us with me nearly jumping out of my skin. It would seem I would become witness to what happened if along, and without hesitation we ran outside to where we heard the shout from.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:an7xuvdl3xew2ac7el4ojiu6/bafkreifr3sqoqztjr5tg2x7tw6uivaocvzbjbbr4w5535hskseyliwptym)

Coming to a stop at the edge of the fountain and pausing in the edge of it as I ignored water seeping into my boots, we leaned between the gap of the center of the banister as a panicked woman on the ground scooted way from a decently dressed merchant sneering at her. Hired thugs stood menacingly behind him.
"I didn't steal nothin sir, please! I bought it with me own coin!" The man accusing her snorted, clearly not believing her. If I was a hrothgar my fur would be bristling a great deal. "That is a lot of rot. You being a refugee wouldn't be able to afford the worst or best meat!" He then sneered at her. "By rights, I should turn you over to the Brass Blades, you know─help keep the streets safe for law-abiding citizens."
I felt a soft growl unbidden emitting from my throat, and heard one from Talen as well. The next thing the man said had my blood run cold. "But I'm a reasonable man. If you agree to serve me in...whatever capacity I require, the authorities needn't hear of your crime." He laughed, the 3 men along with him.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:an7xuvdl3xew2ac7el4ojiu6/bafkreie72uyfklud4yvi6st6nwxsr2cyqhavte2aiolzhzrigbi3jks6sy)

The grizzly mode of me was instant without me having to think of it right then, and I leaped down beside the woman, and by the sound of booted armor connecting with the ground Talen followed me, landing on the other side of the woman. and doing a quick glance over I saw my guide and protector in this place with shield ready while the woman stood and moved away to safety where she wouldn't get caught up in the fight that would probably follow.
At this the men behind the accuser readied for a fight while the main man glowered at us. "And who the hell are you two? This filths master?" Though they were small I bared my fangs with a loud growl. "We are not. We come to her side to protect her from you and your thugs." He gave a half smirk. By my guess if he was alone he wouldn't be showing so much brovado. "My men shall teach you a lesson for not minding your own business." Talen pulled forth his shield as he responded. "The only ones who will be tought a lesson is you and your men."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:an7xuvdl3xew2ac7el4ojiu6/bafkreifq6hpjtzstl7grvdugmpcpctqm4rjslgymdu6farb6m6gbtmauwa)
