261 Vol. 4 pt. 64 Patch 11.0 (1/2)
Seven wooly, sheep-like creatures are either eating grass, getting petted by Fenrir, or are staring at Tabitha as she stares back at them.
”Really?” Tabitha asks.
The target of her question doesn't even need her to look at him nor say his name to know that she's talking to him.
”There's a good reason for this,” Fenrir answers.
”And what would that be?”
”Fluff.”
”Fluff?”

”Fluff.”
”What does fluff have to do with bein' a reason?”
”Does there need to be a reason beyond fluff?”
”What kind of reason even is 'fluff?'”
”Fluff is fluff. I don't see what you're not understanding.”
”Ya realize you're about two fluffs away from getting' fluffed by my hammer, right?”
”Serra, back me up here.”
”They're fluffy,” Serra says, nodding her head.
”Obviously, but what's that have to do with anythin'?” Tabitha asks.
”Tabs,” Cassiel says and sighs, ”I don't think you're going to get another reason out of him. He's been obsessed with them ever since he saw them.”
”He has been rather enamored with them since his return,” Corwin says.
”Nell,” Fenrir says, ”I want you to make fluffy sweaters for every single one of us with their wool.”
Nell's eyes light up as she excitedly nods her head, ”Of course! That sounds wonderful! We could all have matching, wool sweaters! That would be both adorable and comfortable!”
”See? Nell understands.”
”They are pretty fluffy,” Oleander says as he pets one of the creatures on the head. ”They would totes be super comfy to turn into clothes.” The sheep looks up at him with fearful eyes. ”I – I just mean turning your wool into clothes. Not the rest of you.” The sheep relaxes and goes back to enjoying the head scratches and pets.
”I bet wearing something that soft would make girls want to hug me,” Rao says, scratching his chin.
”We – we might be able to use their wool for trading with the other towns,” Azalabulia says.
Tabitha looks at the taller, bustier woman and shoots her a thumbs-up before saying, ”Now we're talkin'. See? At least one of you can give me a good reason to keep these oversized cotton balls around.”
”In my defense,” Nell says, ”creating new clothes for us all would be quite useful! Are you not tired of wearing the same clothes every single day? I know that they may not smell dirty as real clothes would, but variety is good!”
”I want to see Tabs dressed up in cute clothes,” Serra says.
”H-hey! I don't need to wear anythin' 'cute.' All of you can do that, but I'm good!” Tabitha says.
Nobody buys it.
”What's this?” Fenrir asks. ”Could it be that you actually want to dress up all cute?”
”Hammer,” Tabitha threatens.
”Come on, you've already admitted before that you love magical girl anime because of how empowering it is. What's wrong with a girl wanting to wear cute things?”
”I like the themes, not the clothes!”
”Come now, Tabitha! You would look precious in fluffy clothes!” Nell says. ”I can just imagine you wearing thick pants, a fluffy jacket, and a large hat covered in wool! We could even decorate your hammer with some of their wool, such as giving it a comfier grip! Does that not sound wonderful?”
