Yo it's been a hot minute since I posted anything original on this account so let's change that with a Kipo and the age of wonderbeasts self insert
Meet Coal a thembo shape-shifting fox mute in love with Scarlamagne/Hugo
They can shift into any form but one feature of their true form will always remain though they have gotten good at hiding it
They met Scarlamagne when he started making his rule of Las Vista known and they decided they wanted to live the cushy life as well.
Coal began working as a spy for Scarlamagne after they proved how easily they could infiltrate his private circle by pretending to be one of his nobles which was only revealed when said noble returned complaining of a major headache.
They reside in Scarlamagne's court unless on an infiltration mission into one of the other packs. While home they like teasing Scarlamagne as much as they dare which shocks visitors seeing how bold they act around him, occasionally going so far as draping themself over him while he plays piano.
They pride themself with the knowledge that they are one of the rare few who know some of his past. Though they enjoy teasing him that is one of the few places they refuse to touch, too aware of the hurt being abandoned beings.
When Kipo came to the surface Coal had been infiltrating the dubstep bees for information and the appearance of a burrow girl intrigued them enough to follow her in various forms. After Scarlamagne heard about her they were officially tasked with finding her but they decided it would be more fun to just watch things play out much to the displeasure of Scarlamagne.
Spoiler for season 2&3 of Kipo
After Scarlamagne captured the humans and Kipo was brought to stay with him Coal revealed their true form to Kipo and enjoyed joking around with the human.
When Scarlamagne revealed his dream for Aurum and began filling the stadium with gold Coal decided to go into hiding as they were torn between supporting Scarlamagne and believing in Kipo's dream.
They finally made up their mind during the first HAMUFA meeting where they revealed themself to Kipo and promised they believed in her. They spent lost of their time keeping Scarlamagne company. The first time he saw them outside his cage he assumed they were going to let him out but was disappointed when they instead sat across from him and started blabbing about what was happening with the alliance and how Kipo was faring.
Coal became his constant companion and when Kipo started allowing him freedom they enjoyed teasing him after every failed escape attempt.
Though Scarlamagne was still frustrated with his imprisonment he did enjoy the time spent with Coal though he wouldn't admit it.
During the final battle with Emilia Hugo shielded Coal during the fireworks before Leo and Song covered them both with a blanket.
Before he charged Emilia to protect Kipo Hugo pulled Coal into a first and last kiss that shocked them. While he lay dying Hugo told them how much they had truly meant to him and how he was glad they had stayed by his side.
Coal vanished after that and no one has seen them since but every year on his birthday a single rose is left at the base of his statue and sometimes Kipo thinks she sees a foxes tail somewhere it shouldn't be.
