Bridget's ears flicked down, briefly, at the sarcasm dripping out of Tiff's voice on the subject of being big and strong. She herself was both, as well, and the disparaging note in Tiff's voice wasn't missed. She couldn't help it! And she wouldn't if she could have, honestly, which probably meant Tiff was right to judge. Her strength could be a disadvantage a lot of times, but she liked it more often then she didn't, and it meant she was valuable to the King.
"That totally makes sense," Bridget said, nodding. She got into anxiety spirals, which she presumed was what Tiff was talking about. "But you really don't have to worry about the King h...arming you," she said, because there was no way she wouldn't be hurt by his dick, at her size, but he probably wouldn't... permanently? injure her? Probably? "You're in the clear there, unless you suddenly start insulting him out of nowhere." She laughed at the implausibility of this. "Just relax a bit and tell him all about your ideas and it'll be over in no time."
She sighed internally. She hoped the King appreciated her wing-manning for him like this. But, well, Tiff had good ideas. Really good ideas. It was best for Aeris if she stuck around to implement them. And Avi wanted her. Bridget could never deny Avi something he really wanted. He was too good to her.
"It, uh, I mean." Would she take offense to Avi liking her being small? Oh no, she was a halfling, what if that was racist? She'd just seemed annoyed by big and strong people! "Well, I just mean, you're so cute?" she blurted out, panicked. "Um!" She walked quickly into the back of the meat fridge.
"Yeah, this is my private supply. This is why I mentioned telling him what you want. Obviously everyone needs a wage, but I also get this!" She spun around, demonstratively, gesturing to the room around them, making her skirt flare out like a blooming tulip and her hair bounce. "As much as I can eat! Which is a lot!" She patted the pig cheerfully. For this sort of thing, she tended to eat it whole. She'd just drag it into the garden and eat there, because otherwise it made a mess and people got upset. But it was very good for the flowerbeds.
"You get them from farms!" she said cheerfully. "The King implemented a thing where farmers can just pay their taxes with goods instead of gold, if they want. They get better rates that way, and it lets them skip the merchant middle man." Her tail wagged cheerfully, because she'd helped a lot with the tax code. "I won't give you this, though! I've got some shaving lamb back here somewh--ah! There it is!"
She plucked a pita off a shelf--she did have things other than meat back here!--and a huge cleaver off another. She kept her claws too trim to use them, these days, although she'd done it in the past. Tail still wagging, ears upright, facing backwards towards Tiff, she hummed cheerfully as she shaved off sliver after sliver of the meat directly onto the pita.
"It's already seasoned," she informed Tiff, rolling the pita around the meat and then handing the overstuffed monster down to her. "It's good enough as is if you really like meat, but if you want, I've got some sauce that goes really well with it... sssssomewhere. Cara might have it."
"Are you feeling better about the King now? Do you have anything you want to know about him or the process?"
"That totally makes sense," Bridget said, nodding. She got into anxiety spirals, which she presumed was what Tiff was talking about. "But you really don't have to worry about the King h...arming you," she said, because there was no way she wouldn't be hurt by his dick, at her size, but he probably wouldn't... permanently? injure her?
