ysobel*wheezes with laughter*
In my DnD group, we just intentionally triggered a trap, dropping nine Intellect Devourers, which are tiny brains on four legs.
My character, an owlin monk with more chipperness than sense, was first in initiative; she exclaimed "brain puppies!", and tried petting one. It was amenable so she scooped it up for a good cuddle.
Character who was second in initiative, whose player is physically in the room with me, did the same. (The game is online via foundry and discord voice chat, but one person is local and my internet is better than hers.)
My DM /absolutely/ did not see this coming...
(Edit: for non-DnDers, this is roughly like seeing a herd of hungry grizzly bears, going "eee cute and fuzzy", and trying to cuddle one. If not friend, why friend shaped, amirite? Oh and you're covered in meat juice. And they all basically just want to eat you.)
