i met custard while taking a leisurely, almost meditative walk around town. we immediately hit it off, sharing jokes and secrets and hidden fears. as you might guess, custard is a good listener; she also offers good advice! she was my babysitter during my first few nightmare highs, and she helped me with the pain of deconstruting religion. no other plush helped me so much to learn to enjoy life and practice self care. also, her tail is very puffy and her paws are very cute.

truffles is the newest, cuddliest member of my plushie family. i needed a comfort companion to accompany me to surgery (ffs), and it was truffles who called (barked) out to me at the toy store. since then, we have been inseparable, tag teaming therapy sessions, support groups, and sleepovers. truffles is the one plush that sleeps in bed with me at night.
