Fuzzbutts: Bruce Is Not A Kangaroo (Patreon)
Content
And he's glad he's not, because kangaroos are jerks.
Bruce is a western brush wallaby. His neighbor, Logan, is a red kangaroo, the biggest of all marsupials. As in our world, macropods tend to value size, strength, and power, especially in males (known as boomers). Logan (also known as Bro-gan) is a rather typical smarmy meathead jock, if said jock were crossed with a dumb party-hearty frat dude. He manages a small but successful local gym, and can be pretty pushy about trying to get Bruce to join. He also brings Bruce the occasional mug of protein powder spinach sludge and says Bruce should really take gummi multivitamins if he's gonna insist on staying inside his apartment all day. You need Vitamin D, bro! And fuckin' taurine! How're you ever gonna snag a missus with those tiny twig arms?
Bruce fuckn hates Logan.
He was initially excited to have chanced upon a neighbor from the same country as himself (which I'm tentatively calling DownUndah), buuut Logan just proved to be a pest. The guy never misses a chance to tease Bruce about his small size, which makes Bruce fantasize about nailing him in the nads with a well-placed kick, just once. Little does Bruce know, Logan actually does genuinely care about his neighbor. He's just stupid. Logan comes from a family of many, many brothers, and never quite learned that there are ways to show affection beyond shoulder punches and relentless teasing. Bruce's tiny size and antisocial vibe kinda activate Logan's big brother instinct. All his douchebaggery, though insufferable to Bruce, is Logan's woefully misguided way of looking out for the little wallaby.
(Logan is the first character to not be directly inspired by any particular Pandoraverse character. I may make a good deal more random characters to help the world feel more populated. Other notes: Logan is in his early thirties, he's a master kickboxer, and he's happily, openly bisexual. It's equal opportunity love in Brogan Town! >:D
