"Twisting [her] fur" (she used the word "my" at the table) over the fact that her "<a href="https://youtu.be/zB_1SK0I_sM?si=txRoR_vEt3qwhUfu" target="_blank">roleplay</a>" away from the table that she never mentioned had developed the "fursona"(Alice's word choice again) differently after the campaign and expected me to make a bunch of world changes to fit.</blockquote>
