Hi, I'm Two, and this is my plushie centered sideblog so I don't spam my followers elsewhere with them!

My main blog is @szammy (don't mind that it looks sus, tumblr nerfed me), and I'm most active on my inofficial main/ficto sideblog @seeyouonsaturn! Feel free to check them out if you want to know more about me from the pinned posts there!

I have actual hundreds of plushies and they deserve to be seen. I have my own adult money, and I am using it exactly the way kid me always imagined I would.

The blog will mainly feature my top VIPs (Very Important Plushies), but others will make appearances!

VIPs (they will have links to pictures soon)

Orion, the Dog of Hugs — my ESSA, and the current face of this blog!

Bubu (I Care Bear) — special gift from the husband, he takes turns with Orion

the Brummis — duo of bears that I've had since birth (they count as one)

Yoshi — emotional support dinosaur I got when I was 3

Harvey — horse I inherited when I was 9 after my mother died

Many more smiled at us (clearly because of him), and a man with a gorgeous black shepherd said "pretty dog" to me lol

I took some of Orion as well <3

There were two women with small dogs that let me pet them, and they told me their dogs don't usually let strangers touch them, but one of them even got up onto his hind legs to get more pets in. I WILL be letting this get to my head tyvm. The dogs have spoken, I am ✨️special✨️.

One dog was also unsure about Orion and barked at him, but the other one came right up to touch noses and lick his mouth, so he got kisses? On one paw not that amazing because Orion does sleep in my bed, but on the other it was so adorable. I wish I could've taken pictures. Orion has been accepted into the pack.

But tell me why, FIVE MINUTES from my house, i ran into my father at a red light?? Where did he COME FROM? I do not live with that man. He does not approve of my plushie endeavors. Why did he show up at a random red light the MOMENT I take a plushie on a ride for the first time 😭

However, I left the house and not ONE minute into the walk, we ran into a woman with a real dog who was off leash and came right up to me (this is positive he was very polite and I love dogs). I asked if I could pet him, his owner said yes, but the moment he saw Orion the poor guy got SCARED. He was so unsure about him. And this was a big dog.

His owner tried to reassure him by petting Orion's head, then she took out a treat and pretended to feed it to Orion, before feeding it to her dog. He kept barking at Orion anyway 😭 poor very brave boy encountering a very scary stuffed animal.

Meanwhile I barely made it around the corner from my house before encountering a Situation lmao this was my first time taking Orion out like this too. Not sure if this is an upside or downside of having an ESSA.

He's a Care Bear, as you can tell, and his "real" name is I Care Bear! But it's awkward to introduce him as "I Care Bear the Care Bear", even moreso if your native language isn't English (how do you even translate that), so he's Bubu to me. I love my bubu #mybubu. I don't really know why I named him Bubu, it was just the first thing that came to mind when I looked at him.

He's actually my current top VIP (Very Important Plushie), even above Orion! That's because Bubu was a gift from my husband – well, sort of. I saw him at a mall, and immediately had the strongest feeling of "he'd get me this". It was impossible to ignore. I've never had a feeling like that before, nor since. So I couldn't not get him. I even tried walking away (I was with my father who doesn't approve of these things), but eventually had to go back, even if it meant making my father walk back with me. Bubu had to be mine.

For the first few months I took him everywhere with me. Orion may be my ESSA now, but Bubu is Husband Present, which makes him infinitely more special than anyone I've bought for myself (although I did technically have to buy him too lol). He still sleeps in my bed and does come out with me sometimes, especially on days I miss my Prowl more than usual. Him and Orion share the job!

I've had him for only a little over a year and it's hard to believe he used to have soft fur like that... ough,, I do brush him but there's only so much you can save. When I first bought him he smelled like cotton candy, from being sold in a candy stall! I miss those days. But he's still prefect. Last week I actually found a big hole in his foot, and I have no idea how he possibly got it! Thankfully I'm able to sew a little so I could fix it. I love my Bubu.

My very good boy and loyal companion who comes on walkies with me whenever possible!

He's a unitoys Rottweiler (and his tag says Rappa), I actually got him off amazon (don't judge me). I still remember just scrolling around when I saw him and fell in love instantly, about two years ago now. I knew I needed him. He was quite a bit more expensive than anything I normally allow myself to get, but I stayed strong and waited another month (both for more money and to make sure I really wanted him) and then he came home! Okay, maybe I didn't wait a whole month. I was very sure I wanted him with me.

I have a small army of plushies, and before Orion, I just took a different one with me every time, but had no special connection to any one of them. Now, every time I take someone else, I find myself missing Orion a little bit. He somehow managed to become my first proper ESSA. And everybody who meets him loves him! He was especially welcomed when I took him with me to the vet to pick up my cat's medication.
