Tiff is a good leopard, truly they are! But the issue is how insecure he gets. There are very few other leopards he would call 'good friends', he's got amazing fur, he really knows how to dazzle a crowd. But any leopard you meet would tell you that he's not a very good person, that he's snobby, he pushes his fans away rudely. He's quick to judge others as he believes they would him, leaving him rather bitter and scared of the world around him. He refuses to let anyone into his little bubble that isn't already there. He's scared of the real world seeing him as the fraidy-cat he is, despite all his shows being sell outs. Not a single stutter or a stumble leaves his tongue. He's one of the most famous leopards there are, a celebrity if you will, millions of followers, 'friends' his tickets sell out in 5 minutes of their drop. And yet not a single person understands how kind he would really be if he could let them in. All he wants is a movie night in, a single coffee date without a fan screaming for a picture, to go to the grocery store in his pajamas without the pops judging him for it. He's got one best friend, and that's sparks. With her beautiful bow and perfectly trimmed hair. The only one who would ever be allowed so close. She's his personal makeup artists and trusted friend, they're so different in personality. But that's what makes them so great together. Sparks qualms his fears, promising him that people don't hate him.
So really, Tiff is a good leopard with a hard outer shell that needs a little chipping away at. If only that perfect little golden cat could shine through just the way his bell does. Everyone could love him for who he really is rather than how media perceives him, the snooty little sellout who only cares about his career... but that's not who he is. Will you see him for who he is? Will you love him even that way?
