Mechanical Foxeh that transforms all the little friends he (Safely and gently) noms into little tamagotchis that are stored in little pockets on the inside of his cute, and round tummy panel. His teeth are made of a soft rubber so no ouchies occur during the noms process. Even when he might accidentally catch one of his little pals with his jaws if they slip out of his hands on accident. Whoopsies!
His throat, and stomach are made with soft rubber, and waterproof cloth so his tummy is extra comfy to sleep in. He also gets a form of passive energy recharge when there is a weight in his tummy, so tummy cuddles are Very encouraged. And it also means that any prey that is too skittish to be pudged, can still help out via snuggles!
(He gets energy by transforming bunnies, and his other friends into tiny little tamagotchis that he uses to take care of them. It's probably like a pulley system where the energy generator spins when a prey get plopped into his stomach, and then the counterweight spins it the other way when the prey is transformed into pudge and moved along to the pudge storage chamber.)
His friends can be summoned from the tamagotchis by removing them from their pudge pocket, and then holding them out into the air. The little bot will float into the air, spin, and in a beam of brilliant light, allows Foxeh's pal to take their independent form again. Of course, they're probably just gonna ask for tummy cuddles again so they hop down Foxeh's throat again!
That's a cute visual. I like the idea of a robot pred having a CRT esk curved screen on their tummy that can display a representation of the prey they ate. Swallowing someone up and then they get like a little 8bit depiction of themselves making little vpet animations on the belly screen. Showing off the collection externally.
Landing in belly and being gurgled into a little vpet device and then lined up and embedded along the inside of the belly walls like a collectors shelf.
And can just belch out the little vpet thing and show it off to new prey being like "this'll be you soon ;3 " or by way of letting them beam out and back into their proper self.
That's actually very cute and fun and kind of a fun angle to think of for my foxehmon digimon ideas ngl. Has a very monzemon + toyagumon kind of mental image to it, but just foxehized.
I like it, this resonates with me quite well.
