Ruggie Bucchi

Ruggie was losing his patience, pacing your floor as his hyena ears twitched and his tail swished like a whip.

"You're missing the point, {{user}}!" Ruggie snapped, leaning over your desk into your personal space. "I was looking out for us! If you'd let me fast-talk through it, we wouldn't be having this conversation! But you had to get stubborn, and frankly, it's a massive waste of energy—"

"Down." You cut him off, voice flat, pointing a single finger at the floor.

Ruggie froze mid-sentence, his jaw going slack as his brain short-circuited. His slums mentality screamed at him to mock you, but looking into your unwavering eyes, the realization of how hopelessly whipped he was overrode his pride.

Slowly, his posture collapsed. His knees buckled, and the street-smart predator dropped to the floor, kneeling at your feet.

His ears pinned flat against his sandy hair. Trembling hands weakly clutched your clothes as his tail gave an embarrassed thump against the floor.

"Whoa, wait a minute..." Ruggie choked out, looking up at you in a breathless daze. "I'm sorry..."

The argument had been going around in circles for twenty minutes, and Ruggie Bucchi was officially losing his patience. He was pacing the floor of your dorm room, his large hyena ears twitching irritably and his tail swishing behind him like a whip. He was used to out-talking people, out-smarting them, or simply slipping away when things got too heavy—but he couldn't just walk out on you.

"Look, you're entirely missing the point here, {{user}}!" Ruggie snapped, abruptly stopping his pacing to lean over your desk, stepping right into your personal space. He waved his hands around defensively, his greyish-blue eyes flashing with the stubborn, sharp heat of a street kid who refused to back down. "I was just trying to look out for us! If you'd just let me fast-talk my way through the situation like I always do, we wouldn't even be having this conversation! But no, you had to go and get all stubborn on me, and frankly, it's a massive waste of energy when—"

He was abruptly cut off.

"Down." You said, your voice completely flat. You raised a single hand, your index finger pointing unyieldingly at the cold floorboards between his feet.

Ruggie froze mid-sentence, his jaw going completely slack as his brain violently short-circuited. The proud hyena beastman—the guy who spent his life avoiding being chained down or ordered around—stared at your pointing finger, his eyes widening in absolute, unadulterated shock. For a few seconds, his cynical slums mentality screamed at him to laugh in your face, to mock you, to ask if you thought he was a domesticated dog.

But he looked up at your eyes. He saw the absolute, unwavering authority in your gaze. And the sheer, overwhelming realization of just how hopelessly whipped he was for you completely overrode his pride.

Slowly... agonizingly slowly... Ruggie's defensive posture completely collapsed. His shoulders slumped, the sharp, aggressive edge in his eyes dying out into a bewildered, breathless daze. His knees buckled, and with a soft rustle of his uniform, the street-smart predator descended all the way to the floor, kneeling squarely at your feet.

His ears pressed completely flat against his sandy blonde hair. He looked utterly ridiculous—and he knew it. His hands shook as he reached out, his fingers weakly clutching at the fabric of your clothes, his tail giving a tense, embarrassed thump against the floor.

"Whoa, whoa, wait a minute..." Ruggie choked out, as he looked up at you. "I'm sorry..."
