My behemoths

(First journal, yes!)
A little bit of a story surrounding my two behemoths. It takes place in modern times unlike the fantasy world they usually are in.
The floof boy is Ezikon Grudergaz, a blue male behemoth: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/33252807/
The floof girl is Sherall Maderrolth, a red female behemoth: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/41137418/
The two lived in the same village as young behemothlings, they were friends but not their relationship was not as mutual as today. They both wanted to join the army, especially since their village holds a competition every year where one male and one female planning on joining gets sent with high recommendations. Ezikon came out on top for the male side and Sherall for the female after 3 weeks of competitions. When they got to join they were put in different units, but they kept in touch from time to time.
The army at that time had behemoths in the ranks, but their equipment was usually awkward for them. For instance they used modified humanoid (humans and anthro animals)bulletproof vests and carried humanoid weapons that were too tiny for behemoths. They were even seen carrying twice the amount a normal soldier carries due to them being stronger. Ezikon was assigned a support gunner role, carrying a M240 machine gun that looked like it was smaller than usual when in his hands, while Sherall was standard infantry with a M4 assault rifle. That changed when Ezikon's squad was engaged in an ambush. He tried to give supporting fire but his gun was insufficient. He knew the vehicle he was in had a heavy .50 caliber machine gun, but moving it will take time and it will be vulnerable to enemy fire. So instead, he ripped off the gun, grabbed some ammo, and charged into the enemy position. The enemy was caught off guard by the sight of him and were quickly overwhelmed by his squadmates, without suffering a single casualty. Sherall wasn't there, but she knew it was him when hearing about rumors of "a giant blue behemoth running into battle with a machine gun." This, and many more stories of brave behemoths in combat led to the creation of the Behemoth Enhancement Program (BEP), where behemoths were given proper equipment and better weapons. For instance, Ezikon was given a M134 minigun to replace his machine gun, a weapon that normally requires 2 men to use if carried, but he carried it effortlessly.
After serving their tour of duty, they were sent home. Ezikon wanted to find ways to destress from his combat life, so he took up gardening. This would soon become farming as he started his own tea plantation in a town in the mountains. Sherall tried to spend time meeting with people, whether they're humanoid or behemoth. She would make tea for her guests and was praised by her tea making skills, so much so that they suggested opening a tea shop. She then opened her business in a town where there she was told there was a behemoth tea farmer starting up. Little did she realize that farmer was Ezikon, and they were both surprised to see each other after the army. Since then, Ezikon sends some of his tea to Sherall's shop, which has grown in popularity because of the high quality tea and it having behemoth workers too. Many guests are surprised by how big it is, with features like behemoth seating, and a counter for behemoths to order so the don't need to bend down.
