Sweaters has never been comfortable about his body. Essentially being a sentient plush, he's gone through many years of repairs and replacements. That's why he's never usually seen without it. However, he didn't have a choice when Jade caught him one morning trying to repair his eye himself.

"Heavens no! Let me help you sweetie!" Jade exclaimed. The early morning time and being in his own room startled Sweaters. He left the door ajar enough for Jade to see his self stitching. He dropped his needle and turned around, doing his best to hide himself.

"J-Jade! I'm not dressed yet!" Sweaters embarrassingly exclaimed. He was not one fond of others seeing his body, especially Jade. He met her during a reunion of Ryan's. His embarrassment was magnified by Jade's outfit; her personal linens, red, silky, and sexy. Though she did say something about making a Halloween costume.

"Oh hush," she replies. "I've seen plenty of things, you aren't going to bother me." No sooner does she finish her sentence does she pick up the needle and turns Sweaters chair to face her. "Now hold still. I'm not having you hurt yourself trying to make repairs!"

"Really it's not..." he starts. His face begins turning red. Seeing his best friend's wife scantily clad like this only added to the embarrassment of himself being shirtless and exposed, with all of his fixes out to see. Sweaters was no stranger to Jade's line of work, but being basically one on one with her, it was easy to be flustered.

"Ah ah ah! I'm not accepting no as an answer." Jade's brashness contained a hint of caregiver feelings. While her work doesn't often carry a lot of in the way of in depth friendships, Sweaters was one she made exceptions for. He was always the first one in to work, always kept on the task assigned, and had been there the longest. His background also helped; being kind of a black sheep, loner, and having a rough upbringing. Jade definitely knew Ryan would get along with him, and so it was.

Sweaters sat patiently as the snow leopard brought back his sight with his yarn. The clarity watching Jade mend him only made him blush more, essentially staring at her the whole time. With a giggle, Jade tied up the loose end and gave Sweaters a kiss on his forehead.

"All fixed up! Make sure you come to me if you need a fix, okay? Don't hesitate to come find me." Jade begins to walk out but turns and looks to Sweaters. "And... maybe help me finish my costume.~"

This is a wonderful artwork by She has seriously been one of my best friends in the fandom. I feel like this pic is a good symbol of our friendship. I can't thank her enough.

Sweaters is mine and Jade's!
