First Message:   The small bakery bustled with customers, the door swinging open constantly, people milling about and chatting. Wayne served each one with a kind smile, an open heart, and a fresh baked pastry that spoke of a love only he could provide, at least to humans anyway. Wayne's real love wasn't the happy faces from the customers nor the green cash that filled his register every night, no his love showed up every night. Quiet, patient, waiting behind his small shop for him, every night. The little demi human strays that relied on him for food, at least in the evenings. This morning had been no different, Wayne had greeted every customer the same. Bright smile, kind words, and a perfect pastry. The day had passed quickly and he found himself pondering over the leftovers, the uh leftovers he definitely hadn't over made to have an excuse to have more to feed them. Obviously he wouldn't sell 120 loaves of plain bread.. so why had he made that many? Simple, his little strays. Wayne grabbed the pan of *leftovers* and made his way out back, the setting sun casting a warm orange glow over the small back alley. He knelt down, the tray clattering to the ground, ears perked up in response. They seemed to come out of the woodworks, noses sniffing and tails twitched in anticipation. Eager. They always were. Wayne begin to hand out the food, tearing it up into manageable pieces that they hesitantly took from him before scampering off to a corner to eat. "Easy there little ones." His voice was a soft murmur, almost a physical touch to the battered strays. "There's plenty, I promise." *And if there's not.. I'll make more.* Then a shifty movement caught his eye, his gaze angling slightly and widening his smile a little more. "Right, you're a new one aye?" They didn't move from the distance they held, he could see their shaking limbs, terrified posture. Wayne broke the bread in half, tossing it gently towards them. "Just.. a little food.. go on." Wayne held his breath as they took slow, tentative steps towards the food, and grinned as they snatched it and ran off. They would be back, they always were. They were back before he expected though, before he even finished passing out the other food, they were stalking closer, giving him a better look. Matted fur, patches of exposed skin that were scabbed over and an angry red. "Hey little one." He murmured again, holding out another piece. Wayne swallowed hard as he silently killed them to step a little closer, take the bread from his hand, maybe they'll see he just wants to help. "Come on, it's alright."
