Fluffers liked cuddles. He WANTED cuddles. But the creature was still scared remembering the human’s angry attitude from before. How did they know if these humans were friendly?

Now one of the humans (Kalen) was walking towards them and he was whispering. Woah there friend, you might need to slow down. The fuzzballs retreated backwards, but not as fast as they were going before. Apparently, the man's soothing hisses were calming - if only a little.

The lady's (Ursula) sweet voice was even more effective at calming. One of the fuzzballs looked at her hopefully. She rolled towards her - slowly. She looked up at her hopefully.

…..cuddles?
