Sunny was the one to pursue Virgil. They worked in the same district, and Sunny developed a crush on the guy from the second he saw him. Sunny HAD to get closer to him, by any means possible. Sunny's interest in Virgil is about 50% wholesome dumb doggie instinct to befriend every living soul, aaaaaand about 50% less-than-wholesome fetishistic interest in a large powerful wildtype carnivore. Virgil finds both these reasons strange and off-putting, and probably spends a while on zoogle searching “why am i being mildly harassed by a golden retriever” until Savannah points out the police dog is obviously crushing.

Virgil supposes that the little dog is sorta endearing, in a clumsy, overly eager, fumbling sorta way. Soo…yeah. Yes. Dating. Virgil wouldn't hate it, probably. So he shrugs, why not.

Sunny is a very sweet and thoughtful guy, a true gentleman, and Virgil does come to enjoy his company. But underneath all that fluffy tail-wagging cuteness, Sunny has an odd tension to him. A fascination with Virgil's claws and fangs and strength. Sunny, like his pony iteration before him, has a secret sadomasochistic streak, and very much wants Virgil to absolutely wreck him, treat him like a living chew toy. Virgil doesn’t pick up on the vibes Sunny is hurling his way, and it drives Sunny insane, he’s convinced Virgil is doing it on purpose- a sort of demented carnivore edging, if you will. Agh! Virgil you wicked beautiful mastermind! Eventually he works up the nerve to express his wants to Virgil, and the hyena is completely surprised. Sadly for Sunny however, for all Virgil's fascination in the macabre, he's not actually all that interested in being the sadist blood kink clawing gnawing monster dom bf that Sunny was hoping for. Virgil is lazy and subdued in bed, clearly unused to taking the lead in anything. Sunny ponders whether or not to break things off...before discovering, to his and Virgil's delight, they are deliciously, distressingly compatible in a different way.

I love how Virgil is not picking up at all on Sunny' advances XD Now I understand why he thinks it's Sunny the weird one haha! I hope we'll see soon how these two are compatible in the end! Also, are Virgil's dark hair a change in design or did he have them darker when he was younger?

Angsty Ram

👀 Quite interested in this other compatibility I’m aware that Sunny losing his job was for some other, much more serious, reason but pulling over ambulances would probably be the first hint this ain’t the job for him (and now I’m wondering if such a thing has happened in reality before) That is to say he was fired or did he quit? Questions, questions, I am constantly flooded with them whenever you post and it’s great

Calastor

Well that's one hell of a cliff hanger 👀🔥🔥🔥

lopoddity

It’s a design change, though I may play around with it more. He has dark hair like his mom now. :3

PrincessMuffinArt

Me 🤝🏾 Sunny Claws and fangs wow wow wow Another pair to remind me of my partner and I’s dynamic. 🥴 Also Virgil being the more calm of the two is something surprising since we know how he ends up later.

Queenie

So many posts in such little time, THIS IS SUCH A CHRISTMAS BLESSING 😭😭😭

lopoddity

Sunny was “asked to resign” by the police chief, but there was really no mistaking it, he was fired. Ultimately for the best, he was….not a good cop. At all, lol

Queenie

Also I keep forgetting some Fuzzbutts are Pandoraverse counterparts and the part about Sunnys pony counterpart took me off guard for a sec 😅

lopoddity

Thank you! 😊 Yeah I’ve been trying to destroy the goblin in my brain that says I can ONLY work on art if I have the time and energy to make it absolutely flawless and perfect and if I DON’T then there’s no point making art at all. There’s SO many sketches and ideas piled up in my journals…..I have to make my peace with the fact that it’s better to make (and post) imperfect art than have the art not exist at all. Basically I’m violently shaking myself by the shoulders going “ITS OKAY TO MAKE BAD ART YOU KNOB STOP WORRYING ABOUT MEETING SOME ARBITRARY STANDARD OF PERFECTION IT WILL NEVER COME” (while quietly seeking to improve, of course)

Bigsmile

That last sentence is worrying..... I'm worried now. Also, Virgil is such a big softie now! 🤣! He is not at all aware of his size and more intimidating predator stature in society.... This might be a bit blunt but is Virgil on the Autism spectrum?

Queenie

BRO HONESTLY I FEEL THE EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF JOY WHEN I SEE YOU POST ONE GOOFY SKETCH VS THREE FULL ILLUSTRATIONS OF WORLD BUILDING My pfp is me whenever I see you've posted deadass

lopoddity

Yes, he is on the spectrum. Virgil is very aware that he is a large, scary-looking carnivore, it’s something people won’t let him forget. He has to suppress himself out in public, not laugh as much or show his teeth, hunch to make himself appear smaller. He does not show his true self to people unless he trusts them, as historically people have reacted very poorly to his genuine grin or favorite conversation topics. Even here, he’s still in professional mode, calm and subdued, not quite showing his true self to Sunny just yet.

THANKS THAT HELPS MY ANXIETY SOMEWHAT 💖

Morghann Patterson

Oh god, this puts Sunny in such a fucking creep factor light. A privileged class cop going after a guy he specifically hypermasculinizes and fetishizes is- real gross! Which is the whole point but man this puts Sunny in a whole new light for me

Gleeman and Artist

Me too sunny, me too. u-u Man I'm super hyped to see these twos story. 👀

Morghann Patterson

Also Virgil’s new look is Uber cute, love me a good hyena. Do you think you would ever experiment with other hairstyles for him? I’ve noticed that you tend to lean towards locs or looser fros when it comes to textured hair, but I would love to see your take on styles like corn rows or Bantu knots…. Actually imagine Mal with a Jaguar print style fade in her hair

Morghann Patterson

In a completely different topic, what’s the consensus on ‘animal print’ in terms of patterns? Would it be okay to wear a leopard print skirt or would that be a matter of appropriation (or calling to the wearing of other people’s fur or leather, which I know you’ve covered as something seen as pretty barbaric in most mainstream circles)

lopoddity

Oh yes. I haven’t gotten into it yet, but once Virgil understands what Sunny wants from him, he’s uncomfortable and even hurt (“Is that how you see me?”), but doesn’t yet know how to articulate exactly WHY it makes him uncomfortable. Virgil has never really had anyone express attraction to him before, let alone had someone outright fetishize him, so he doesn’t realize that’s what is happening. He does however make clear that Sunny’s little monster fantasy isn’t going to happen, and Sunny does end up apologizing. In most other circumstances they would’ve just broken up on an awkward and tense note, it’s by pure dumb luck they stumble into a new, different reason to stay together.

Morghann Patterson

Honestly it gets me thinking- Sunny went from trying to pursue a relationship with Virgil specifically because of his fetish- and then he goes on to date Skye. Another dog, just like him. I can imagine that making Virgil feel more than a little bitter, seeing him go on to have that ‘real’ romantic relationship with her.

knickknacks

seconding the fact that we love seeing whatever you post! I take equal delight in seeing your fun sketchy comics and loose doodles and polished drawings- regardless of the level of 'completion' or 'perfection,' it's absolutely wonderful to see whenever you update! :)

Morghann Patterson

I know you shouldn’t tie your worth as. An artist by other people’s opinions But!!! I literally love looking through peoples sketches and half done concepts, and on patreon I get to get a notification and read it like it’s newspaper

knickknacks

Oh my heart, Virgil's expression in the second panel is so GENTLE. sudden strong desire to protect him. I want this man to have a happy life with his mom and sister and a stable job and people who love and accept and don't fetishize him :( Did Sunny ever realize *why* his behavior toward Virgil was so problematic? Did he realize there was a deeper underlying problem then the two of them simply not sharing the same kink? I am deeply worried about what this "other compatibility" will turn out to be, and also fascinated to hear how things continued to develop for them. Do Skye or Bruce know much/anything about this past relationship? Or is it something Sunny tries to avoid talking about?

Mastodon

Thank you for answering my question! I love Sunny but he comes off as such a creep in these pictures, I totally get now why Virgil thinks he was the crazy ex 😭. Hopefully he's learned how to negotiate that sadomasochism in a healthier way with Skye?

lopoddity

Haha hell no, he just represses it. I tried to imply in the above post that Sunny wants Virgil to choke him, but his desires actually went quite a bit deeper and darker than that. I originally planned for Sunny to be licking Virgil’s fingers and saying he had a dream Virgil “split him open” with his claws and buried his hands inside Sunny’s “pulp and viscera”, to which Virgil was going to be staring at him in alarm. But I figured it’d be a bit too much for patreon, haha. Sunny would not share these desires with Skye because he doesn’t want to freak her out, and because he doesn’t want to hurt anybody or reawaken some dangerous addictions. Sunny’s got a lot of guilt and shame over his past and is trying to be a better dog. He would say his relationship with Skye is very fulfilling and doesn’t need the same edge he shared with Virgil.

lopoddity

Yes, Sunny does. Virgil discloses to Savannah that Sunny says and wants things in bed sometimes that make Virgil uncomfortable in a way he doesn’t fully understand, to which Savannah probably bangs on Sunny’s door holding a baseball bat and tells him to stop fucking fetishizing her brother, creep. At first Sunny is confused. Creep? Fetishizing…? He goes to talk to Virgil about it, because Virgil doesn’t feel that way, right? But Virgil hesitantly admits that he does, and Sunny is. SO guilty. Bawling and blubbering apologies, he didn’t mean to! He’s so sorry!!! He’ll never do it again!! And Virgil says it’s fine, but it’s….not, and they’re left in an awkward place. That is, until they get to talking more….

Kenzie Leong

Love Virgil's new design! And oof, not a good look for Sunny. Then again, every depiction of him in his police officer days fills me with a creeping dread like watching an impending car crash.

Ren

Virgil looks just so soft and pretty here no wonder Sunny was taken aback. Poor Virgil, I know a lot of masc people (or people perceived as masc) get fetishized this way even in queer relationships and it has a lot to do with society’s fake gender roles still somehow forcing its way into queer relationships with arbitrary top/bottom roles being treated the same as dom/sub and as s as personality trait rather than just a preference in bed that has nothing to do with who you actually are as a person. Virgil probably just wants to be told what to do so he doesn’t mess something up (my autistic ass can relate) but I love the narrative of his even with his fascination with macabre and such he doesn’t want to hurt people, doesn’t get pleasure or joy from causing pain, especially to those he cares about. I wonder how these two find something that works, I have a feeling it might now be healthy though. Hope Virgil finds people who actually care and love and accept him. Gio accepts him because of the work he does for him… but Virgil deserves a lot more than that. Give the talk pretty boy some happiness 😭 Ps. I love how you have a character genuinely wonderful as Sunny have hang ups and issues to work on to. It really makes his character real. Still love the goof ball, hope he did the work and unpacking to realize why what he was doing was wrong beyond that it was upsetting his bf. Based on past posts Virgil seems to definitely prefer a passive role, hell he fantasized about Gio chocking him, I wonder if what he and Sunny find is a more roll reversal of what Sunny originally had in mind, you did say in an older post Virgil is a freak 7 days a week. But I wonder if that type of relationship would be healthy for him as well or just a way to cope and feel less like the monster predator he’s perceived to be,

lopoddity

Thank you for your wonderful comment! I LOVED reading it. 💕

Ren

Your characters and stories give me a lot of thoughts and feelings. I could go on so many tangents. I just also have a soft spot for Virgil. I don’t know why but I’ve followed you for years since your pony days and back then Chakra was always one of my favorites, and I’m even more in love with what Virgil has become. Thanks for creating these characters and this world 💜

cactus bastrop

(sickos guy voice) HA HA HA... YES!!! sooooo fascinated by this newer version of the sunny/virgil relationship... as others have said, sunny definitely comes off as uhhh not good in this and i'm here for it. love that sunny is Kind of Fucked Up--it adds a whole new juicy layer to his character beyond the lovable goofball schtick. endlessly curious about how, exactly, these two end up--my gut feeling is that sunny leans more into the "sado" side of sadomasochism--perhaps some involvement from our old friend code red? i hope he gets kicked off the force i hope everything explodes in the worst way possible i hope you die i hope we both die hand in unlovable hand ❤️

Ren

As much as I LOVE your art, I’m more into world building and writing. I love getting full art pieces, obviously, because you are extremely talented with expressions and putting emotions into your pieces. (And making some the cutest and coolest anthro designs I’ve ever seen!) But honestly I would be ecstatic with sketch pieces or even just… posting written works of characters. We love your art yes but it’s its world and characters we love to. I’m happy with whatever you can give us 💜

lopoddity

In reality I am politely telling you thank you, but in my head I am grabbing you by the shoulders and screech-hyperbeaming my love directly into your soul <3

Murkydepths

Was Sunny not a good cop or was he not a bad enough cop? Do the cops in Fuzzbutts have the same sort of widespread issues we have in our world?

Shaylin A.

Is his relationship with Skye ACTUALLY fulfilling, or is that something he tells himself? Is it hard for him to suppress the sadomasochistic desires?

lopoddity

Six of one, half-dozen of the other. Sunny loves Skye, she's the best thing that's ever happened to him. But something is missing from their relationship, and he's yet to find it in any of his partners outside of Skye.

Scyllarus

Welp, I've been won over to New!Virgil. Sunny and Virgil don't seem to have an amazing relationship, in terms of chemistry (yet) - Sunny is just...not Daddy material, and Virgil isn't into being...well, fetishized, but even just being the more aggressive partner. I'm guessing some sort of drug-related situation happens and/or there's an argument which turns...sexy, and Sunny realizes he's maybe *also* into the sadism part of things... I do wonder how this will impact his current relationship with Skye and/or Bruce. As far as I know, Stormy never engaged with his darker desires with Bruce.

owlcoholik

How much does Skye know about…this whole situation honestly. Does she only know what Sunny has told her? I’d love to see that conversation go down 😭

lopoddity

Iiiiii am still figuring that out, haha. Intitially, before I retooled Virgil’s personality, I decided Skye knew everything because Sunny was fully transparent with her. Even in the new story he prooooobably would still tell her everything, but I’ve gotta do some more thinking on it.

lopoddity

I tried to not use Sunny to make any statements about American policing (because lord is it a frustrating topic), I wanted him to be a sort of incompetent sitcom cop that gets up to whacky hijinks like pulling over an ambulance so he can hit on the driver. I'm realizing now that...that's still kinda me making a statement on American policing, haha. Oops. Anyway, the police system in FB is an absolute shitshow, same as in our world. Corruption is rampant among the higher ups, and many cops are apathetic and/or incompetent, with the few "good apples" either getting pushed out of the system or pressured into conforming. Many crimes go unsolved, the cops mostly just exist to protect the property and assets of the wealthy and ticket and harass the poor and marginalized. Sunny is definitely a bad cop. Not a corrupt one (yet), but just wildly underqualified and overconfident and unquestioning of the flawed social systems he's paid to upheld. He did an okay job at stuff like traffic control and talking to kids about stranger danger, but no way in hell was he preventing any crimes. Honestly he's so incompetent he might’ve accidentally aided in some.
