Tuesday DE: It's so fluffy!

[bjornwilde]

Inspired by Eric's posting of a cute video last night in chat which my sleep addled brain can't seem to find...

Your pup has a close encounter with a large apex predator. The predator is acting curious and not hungry or aggressive/defensive. What happens next?

Dude. My pup IS the large apex predator.

Ahsoka cheats and uses the Force to see if it really wants pets or not.

Sabine is cautious and gives the animal space.

Jess gives the creature space unless her empathy suggests it wants pets.

Tybalt does not pet. (He totally would pet the fluffy once an agreement was made.)

Alustin likely knows what the predator is and most of its usual behaviors and how it lives. If he doesn't he has to resist petting the fluffy but will study it.

Ben is a ghost and so can't pet the fluffy.

Amascut, after looking around to make sure no one else is around -- CURIOSITY IS WHAT SEPARATES APEX PREDATORS FROM THE REST OF THE RABBLE! FIGHT ME AND WE SHALL BOTH SATISFY OUR CURIOSITY!

Amascut is bad at making friends.

Yeeeah Twi'leks on Ryloth are very much in the middle of the food chain, Hera absolutely has zero inclination to have anything to do with predator animals even if they aren't immediately acting aggressive. It's all fight or flight.

Kanan is slightly more chill, but he'll still be more inclined to back off unless he has some reason to try to be communicating with the predator.

I mean, that's basically what Yamato is.

Lan Zhan is gonna leave it alone unless it makes a problem.

Zuko is mostly unafraid but he's also got FIRE HANDS.

Zenigata is probably prepping to judo throw a bear right now.

he watches waaaaaaaaaaay too many movies - so, first up is insisting they don't lay eggs in him... after that, curiosity and SCIENCE!
