This is a rough idea of what I think happens when vibiano first found out pattys true identity. At this point in time, vibiano is vib and the two are in patty’s room in the bizzyplex.
Warning: this one might get a slight suggestive at the end
“Yewre not a guy, are yew.”
P squeaked as Vibs question sent lightning through his body. The shock and instant internal panic made her freeze right where she stood. His body started trembling and her breathing panicked. How did he figure it out?! He tried to answer but his speech became a lump in his throat. Vib noticed how panicked P was and held his hand.
“Hey hey. Easy. It’s ok hun. Breathe with me.”
Vib took a deep breath in, held it in for five seconds, and exhaled. P breathed with him. Taking a deep breath in, holding for five seconds and exhaled, repeating the breathing till his breathing calmed and his heart mellowed. Vib smiled and cupped P’s cheek, rubbing his soft fur with his thumb.
“Good boy. Now, lemme ask again. Are yew not a guy?”
P wagged his tail from the praise and nuzzled into his palm, realizing vibs tone and demeanor wasn’t hostile but very gentle. Her ears dropped and looked away.
“I see. Girl what are yew doin here? I adore that yew’ve gotten dis far but Yewre bein ratha careless.
Vibs voice was filled with soft concern, knowing how women are treated back home.
“I just wanted to find a better poipus than what had been set for me. I thought if I could lewk like a guy, maybe I could avoid dat set destiny. As a guy, I wasn’t judged. Naut once. I was treated like an equal. Please don’t tell de othas. I don’t wanna get sent home.”
P admitted. He pleaded for vib not to say anything in fear of being sent back and his one shot of freedom getting dashed. That was what Hector promised. Purpose. And why they all became bizzys in the first place
“Of course! Yew have my woid. Yew’re awlso lucky the othas are meatheads. I will make sure they continue to respect you and continue to refer to you as a man case they do figure it out. But yew have to do sometn for me foist.”
“Yew my pretty puppy boy, will be my assistant. Yew will assist me tew awll of my off duty chores regarding my fashion woik. Yew will also be my model. Got it? Mama don’t do nothing for nobody n’less you dew somthn for her foist.”
Vib said as he scratched Ps chin. He watched as a giant smile spread across those squishy cheeks, accompanied by a few giggles. Vibs request was doable. Just be a model and an assistant. How hard could it be.
“Good~. Yew are gonna look so pretty by the time I’m done with yew. Come to me if yew need anythin. Please be careful, sweetpea.”
Vib said and kissed p on his forehead
(Authors note: vibiano calls himself “mama” whenever he takes on a nurturing role. Taking a page out of missys book. I’ve had the song “when you’re good to mama” in my head all day so I’m applying it here. That’s how he became fiercely protective of Patty. He kept his end of the deal, he gets rewarded with protection)
