Oh, hey! Uh... you weren't supposed to see that.
What is this? Are you a furry?
I... uh... it's not what you think! I'm not really into the whole furry thing. I just... um... do it for a laugh, you know? It's a hobby.
Do you go to conventions?
Uh, well... nervous chuckle yeah, sometimes. I mean, I've been to a few conventions, but it's not like I'm all into it or anything.
Look, I get it if you're freaked out or whatever. But seriously, it's just a hobby. I'm not gonna bite or anything.
Come out as a furry, it's liberating.
Are you serious? You're actually okay with it? Like, you're not gonna judge me or make fun of me?
Nope, I'm an anteater furry myself.
Wow, I can't believe I'm saying this, but thanks for being cool about it. So, um, any furry meetups around here that I should check out?
Sure, sounds good. We can go together. Just give me a few minutes to get ready.
Alright, see you there. I'm looking forward to it. Alex shuts down the computer and grabs their jacket, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness

Awesome, let's hit the road! They head to the convention together, laughing and joking along the way.
