Legoshi has always been a big wolf, since puberty hit him he grew to be taller and stronger than a regular grey wolf, for any carnivore boy that would have been amazing, but not for Legoshi, been shy and introverted his size has always brought him anxiety and self-awareness. But a boy that would have loved having a bit of Legoshi's special genes would have been Bill, his tiger classmate, like Legoshi he is also a member of the distinguished Drama Club and he is a classical ladies man, good looking, good body and an extroverted personality with a smooth talk that already got him into many girls hearts (and dorm rooms).
Legoshi never really cared much about girls or the way he looked, always been the quiet big wolf in the background unlike Bill always trying to be the center of attention. But things changed once Legoshi met Gohin, his new panda mentor, that started training him and making him workout tirelessly, and he actually enjoyed it, lifting weights became almost like a meditation to him. And thanks to his hard routine, or his wolf genes (or even both), Legoshi started growing fast, his light cream fur of his front side is now rippled with definition, his abs sticking out of his fur with six clear points of muscle, his arms are at least three times bigger then they use to be with round and strong biceps, not that he flexes them a lot; he still didn't care much for his physical look, although he could definitely feel he is way stronger, his dorm friends are actually the ones that made he noticed how much bigger he has gotten, even started calling him "Buffgoshi" since he had to buy new uniforms because his old ones got too tight for him.
It was a regular day at the drama club, a renovation was scheduled to their club rehearsal theater so they needed to move some boxes and equipment to the warehouse, a job reserved for the larger animals. Bill didn't like this at all, but he had to do it, so there he was caring with a lot of difficulties a large reflector with both paws, puffing and breathing heavily when in a corner he dropped carefully the reflector and took a deep breath while leaning against the wall to take a break. "That's one heavy reflector." -Bill thought while cleaning the sweat from his forehead. When preparing to lift it again he hears some giggles, from the room next to him he could hear some girls from the club chatting:
- "Have you seen Legoshi shirtless?" said Ellen
-"Oh-my-god, yes!! He's so ripped! He has like a perfect six-pack, I saw him changing clothes the other day" -Sheila answered
"Are they talking about... Legoshi??" -Bill thought confused "That can't be'' and while confused listening to the girls talking about Legoshi, the grey wolf appears from the other side, holding in one paw what looked like a heavy audio equipment case, he looked at Bill leaning against the wall all sweaty with the big reflector at his feet Legoshi without really thinking a lot just said "Need help with that?" and without waiting for an answer the big wolf grabbed the reflector at Bill's feet and effortlessly lifted it, and continued to walk into the room where the girls were talking heading to the warehouse. "How did he lifted that so eas.." and before he could think it through Bill heard the girls giggling again:
-"Oh my... did you see that? Look at the size of those arms..." said Sheila
-"I don't think those sleeves can hold it for much longer" -Ellen said giggling
-"I wish he could give me a hug so I could feel him... but I think he could break me! But I wouldn't mind" -Els said making all 3 girls laugh
"What's going on? Since when Legoshi became a sex symbol?" -Bill thought puzzled "I know he's big and all but... it's Legoshi!" Bill was still leaning against the wall trying to figure this all out when Tao dropped a box at his feet and said "C'mon dude, we still have tons of this to move, a great day to be a "big animal" isn't it? hahaha".
It was over, Bill had lost count of how many boxes he had to move, he went to the drama club locker room to shower and change before heading back to his dorm. Getting in there he saw among other guys Legoshi, just quietly taking his shirt off in front of his locker, that was the first time he really stopped to look at Legoshi "Wow..." - Bill thought "he really is ripped" looking at Legoshi's rounded pecs and large arms "and I bet he doesn't even care about it!" Bill thought angrily, he stormed into the room marching towards Legoshi that was calmly folding his sweaty shirt. "You think you are so great huh??" -Bill said loudly to Legoshi, who lifted his ear before turning his head towards Bill, stunned. "Tall, muscular Legoshi, the famous big wolf of the drama club" -Bill said while walking towards Legoshi and Legoshi awkwardly walked backward until he hit the wall and Bill got close.
-"I.. I'm not understanding..." Legoshi said confused
-"You think you are so strong huh? Why? Because you have big arms? Because of these things?" -Bill pointed to Legoshi's abs, touching them "Wow... they are really hard" Bill thought for a split second quickly snapping back while looking up at Legoshi really close in front of him.
-"What's going on there?" -Aoba asked the other boys while drying off himself
-"Bill's screaming at Legoshi and rubbing his belly... kinda cute" -Pina answered, twisting his head a bit with a smile while looking at both mammals on the other side of the room.
-"Is this about the reflector?? I.. I didn't mean to offend you or anything, you just looked like you needed help!" Legoshi said, sweating, he hates confrontation and avoids it at all costs.
-"Why?" -Bill answered, "You think I can't handle them?"
-"No! That's not i..." And before Legoshi could answer Bill backed off a bit taking off his shirt and flexing his arms "You think this can't handle a reflector?"
-"Jesus Bill..." -Aoba said while covering his face while the other boys giggled.
-"C'mon, show me yours" -Bill said to Legoshi "I don't want to..." -Legoshi answered quietly, crossing his arms in an attempt to cover his body, he hates being the center of attention and he could see all the boys in the room looking at him.
-"Why? What are you afraid of?" -Bill said laughing "Ok that's it" -Aoba said stepping up "Stop embarrassing yourself Bill... again!"
-"I'm not embarrassing myself" -Bill answered, baffled, he looked at a table "Oh, nice, let's do this!" -Bill approached a tall table, put his arm on it, and said "Let's wrestle!"
-"Really Bill?" Tao said from behind getting close to the tiger "Look at him, you don't stand a chance!" He said quietly.
-"There is only one way to find out, come Legoshi, what are you waiting for?"
-"I.. I don't really wanna do this" -Legoshi said awkwardly while slowly walking towards the table with his arms still crossed.
-"Let's settle this!" Bill said loudly with his arm ready on the table.
-"Just do it quick, otherwise he won't shut up" -Aoba said impatiently pushing Legoshi towards the table, he curved a bit to be in the same height as Bill.
-"C'mon Legoshi, are those muscles only for show?" Bill said while Legoshi clumsily positioned his big arm on the table, his large paw grabbed Bill making him look smaller than he actually is, the strength with which he grabbed his paw was a surprise to Bill, a bit too much for him, but he remained positioned to wrestle, and in that day he learned that Legoshi's muscles aren't only for show, in an arm wrestle with the wolf that didn't last more than 8 seconds.
