Bruiser with a Soft Center	comment	The big, burly, super macho guy who is nothing but a stack of muscles is pretty much a brick, right? Not so much. True love or a sweet, touching moment reveals what a big softy he really is under all that hard muscle. Hands that can smash through walls effortlessly now rise to hide the Tender Tears, or remain stoically at his sides as he weeps Manly Tears. Thugs will limp away nursing cuts and bruises from his mighty fists. Children and small cuddly animals will simply treat his great ham hands like cozy furniture to snuggle up in. Enemies will flee from his mighty roar or battle cry. But he will sit still and quiet if a kitten curls up on his chest purring, and he'll let her stay as long as she pleases. Some of the bruisers have no embarrassment at having a soft center, but others will instantly try to cover it up; or matter-of-factly inform their companions that "if you tell anyone this happened, I'll deny it"; still others will ensure the silence of those who witnessed their soft heart showing with threats. While this trope tends to trend mostly male, females are not exempt from being bruisers with soft centers. This trope also tends to trend mostly heroic, but the occasional villain will also prove he's not made of stone by showing his soft side amongst a trusted few or in private. This is a trope with a lot of neighbours: Compare with Gentle Giant, Boisterous Bruiser, Genius Bruiser, Real Men Wear Pink, Morality Pet, Jerk with a Heart of Gold, The Soft-Hearted Warrior, and Tsundere. Even a Papa Wolf can turn soft when he's around his children. Super-Trope of Emotional Bruiser. Contrast both Devil in Plain Sight and Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: Massive Colossus is a sensitive artist who loves his little sister. Beast frequently quotes poetry and literature, and is a very kind and warm man. Even Wolverine displays this trait at times, especially around his surrogate daughters Kitty Pryde and Jubilee. Cable and Nate Grey both get this from their mother. The former is a burly, grizzled ex-soldier, but also a deeply philosophical and spiritual man who cares deeply for his family (particularly his little brother, Nate, and his daughter, Hope), and for humanity as a whole. The latter is a cosmically powerful psychic capable of breaking worlds, and initially distinctly grumpy and in chronic pain thanks to his fluctuating powers, but also caring, loyal, and determined to save the world no matter what it costs him, even trying to help his enemies. He's also consistently kind to children, even after he seems to have gone off the deep end in Uncanny X-Men (2018).

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_1bf83ffb	comment	Frankenstein's monster in Frankenstein is hinted to be this: at heart he's a lonely, sensitive man who yearns to live among other people. However, since everyone views him as a grotesque, hulking monster, everyone is scared of him and either runs away or attacks him on sight. When he hides in the shed of a family for several chapters and talks with their blind father, he explains that he feels love and compassion for them; too bad that when he reveals himself to the family, they immediately attack him and drive him away. Over the course of the book, he begins to hate all humans, but still ambivalently wishes to help them, such as when he saves a girl from drowning in a stream.

As a young child, he used to be a bully, until his grandfather corrected his behaviour into someone who uses their great strength to protect. Now he has no trouble admitting he's a tough, physical fighter who won't hurt a fly, and he's not afraid to cuddle soft toys in public... much to Kon's chagrin.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_1e9e2d34	comment	The Desert Storm: Ben Naasade a.k.a. Obi-Wan Kenobi (after a bout of involuntary time travel, several years after Revenge of the Sith) is one of the greatest combatants in the Jedi Order, and the galaxy as a whole. He's a near peerless Master Swordsman, an exceptionally powerful Jedi, and a dangerous hand to hand combatant. He terrifies and/or creeps out most of his fellow Jedi, even Mandalorians think he's crazy (albeit, eventually, crazy awesome), and those who actually know who he really is find him particularly unnerving. Obi-Wan is a sweet, principled, and maybe somewhat emotional kid who wears his heart on his sleeve. Ben Naasade is calm, elegant, charming, with an eerie understanding of the Force, the demeanour of a general, the grey morality of someone who survived a truly brutal war, a knack for passive and active manipulation that beggars belief, and truly epic PTSD, leading more than one person to wonder what the hell happened to him. He is also a Friend to All Children, spoils little Anakin horribly, is most content when playing with children in the Creche, and turns to goo the moment a baby smiles at him. Obi-Wan himself becomes a near peerless Master Swordsman under Ben's tutelage right down to inventing his own lightsaber form, Form VIII, Daosaan a.k.a. 'the Dancing Form', designed primarily for fighting as a group, and an exceptional hand-to-hand combatant under the tutelage of both Ben and Jango Fett. He is also equally fond of children which is probably a good thing, since as of Mirage, he's a father by Satine - not that he initially knows it. Jango Fett is a grumpy variant. He's Mand'alor, a truly terrifying combatant who killed six Jedi with his bare hands, and perhaps the best bounty hunter in the galaxy. He's also capable of beating the pants off of Obi-Wan, by that point a Knight-level Master Swordsman, in a spar with the Dark Saber, despite Obi-Wan's overpowered blade, Ben's rigorous training, and Jango's utter lack of Force-based advantages. He is capable of being an utter nightmare, as he is unhappily aware, and as his Roaring Rampage of Revenge demonstrates. He also cares far more than he wants to admit, something that Ben carefully teases out of him and Obi-Wan unwittingly outright drags out of him. It's noted on more than one occasion in later instalments that he basically just wants to adopt them straight out, and his reluctantly adopted daughter, Bo-Katan, grudgingly notes that Obi-Wan is essentially Jango's first child. Ben, who knows his past, serves as his Morality Chain, but Obi-Wan is his Morality Pet - as, latterly, is Satine.

He was more visibly devastated than anyone else, and later regretted his days of not getting to play with other children when he was a boy because everyone considered him too dangerous were apparently not behind him. During his face days, he also gave his hat to someone on the way out to the ring. That someone is typically either a kid there because of the Make-A-Wish foundation, or a member of the U.S. armed forces, who the WWE shows appreciation for by giving them seats near the action.

She also maintains an optimistic and chummy attitude around her friends and dotes on her younger sister Ruby, often crushing poor Ruby with her hugs. She probably inherited this trait from her father Taiyang, who is a hulking muscle-man with broad arms covered in burn scars, who nevertheless tenderly brings his daughters breakfast in bed while they're recovering from their injuries, not to mention the sheer glee in his voice upon unveiling his daughter's artificial arm.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_366a284d	comment	Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star is not afraid to hug children and shed Manly Tears (or even Tender Tears) from time to time. This actually becomes a plot point near the end of the main story, as Hokuto Shinken's ultimate technique, Musou Tensei, can only be used by those who know sadness, which in the story is tied to love. Raou attempted to take a shortcut on that — thus letting him stay a "Bruiser with a Hard Center" — by killing the woman that Kenshirou loved, intending for the act to impart knowledge of sadness and love onto him. Thank gosh he was interrupted by her coughing. Finding out that Yuria is dying BECAME the shortcut. Though not explicitly stated, this was pretty much why Yuria loved Kenshirou over Shin and Raou in the first place.

The man is a scary-good fighter both in hand to hand and with his pistol, but his cold facade breaks down in a hurry when asked to do the honorable thing, or when he senses someone needs protection. At the end, he is almost on the verge of tears warning DG that she will have to face her sister alone.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural: Dean Winchester. He may swear like a sailor, go hard on the liquor and sex, and be able to take on monsters and psychos with little problem, but he's got a soft spot for kids, his family, and Castiel. His younger brother Sam might even be a better example, although less overtly macho. He's noticeably taller and just as muscled, and while he's skilled at physically taking down the supernatural creatures they hunt, his forte is researching what they're up against. Hurt his family (blood family or just treated as such) and if he can't do anything about it he just may have a breakdown. And if someone's hurting inside (not uncommon), he'll probably be the first one to see it and try to comfort them. The character Tiny, a very large prisoner who is sensitive because of an abusive father, is seen in the episode "Folsom Prison Blues" (S02, Ep19) of Supernatural.

However, he is consistently shown as possessing a soft side; he dotes over his new puppy Godzilla. During the bank raid, he tells an old lady that she can remain standing if it is too difficult for her to lie on the floor. When she complains that she only came into the bank to withdraw 500 francs, he gives her 500 francs from his own wallet. And when Godzilla is accidentally shot by the police, he falls in a deep depression: vowing to make Godzilla the grandest grave any dog has ever had, and debone a cop.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_57ad0c07	comment	Common character trait in Resident Evil. Barry Burton, gun collector and mostly muscles, is Happily Married and carries a photo of his wife and two daughters in his uniform.note The photo has a message on the back for his family, presumably in case he dies during a mission, so the body recovery will be a bittersweet reunion. He is also a Pungeon Master and an ally to Jill Valentine. When Jill becomes missing-in-action in the series, Barry was apparently the most devastated out of the old friend group, as if he saw her as his surrogate daughter. Claire Redfield is a Badass Biker who always has her big brother's back, and a Friend to All Children. When she tells big brother Chris she was so worried about his safety, Chris quips at how out-of-character that was for a "tough girl" like her. Both Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield served several years in the military before becoming police officers (army and Delta Force, and Air Force, respectively), but are both Parents to Their Men throughout the series and are Bash Siblings with each other. Ada Wong is a spy-for-hire who works for dubious people and mostly acts like an Ice Queen with an occasional knowing grin, but notably helps out the opposition frequently to defeat a mutual enemy. Jake Muller is a Perpetual Frowner with a Face of a Thug, but became a mercenary as a teen to afford medical treatment for his dying mother (unfortunately, she didn't make it). Former CIA agent Helena Harper has a reputation for being aggressive and grumpy. One of the reasons she was relocated to Secret Service was because her little sister Deborah revealed a recent ex-boyfriend was abusive, so she shot him in the leg.

This contrast, along with his desperate attempts to hide his "girly" traits, has made him sexually insecure and extremely defensive regarding his masculinity, causing him to be further shunned by others. Naturally, he gets better with the help of the protagonist, and the Golden Ending shows him toning down his "tough guy" antics and getting more in touch with himself.

While he doesn't necessarily show his soft side to everybody, those who know him well enough and/or for long enough understand his deep capacity for love and devotion. He can also be quite funny, especially in situations where he feels outside his comfort zone. Natasha Romanoff (a.k.a. Black Widow) is an interesting spin, as her soft side comes less though overt sweetness and more though vulnerability. A spy, assassin, and something of an Ice Queen, she typically plays things very close to the vest, including her own history. While she is fully capable of compassion towards others, there are relatively few who she is willing to tell even parts of her story.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_6c2c4bf3	comment	X-Men Film Series: Wolverine is near-invincible in a fight and he can be very ill-mannered in social situations, but deep down, he's actually quite sweet and caring. Those who are lucky enough to see his softer side include Rogue, Jean Grey, Charles Xavier, X-23 and a grizzly bear. Although there's a part of Logan which will always be "wild," the Phoenix points out to him that Professor X has succeeded in "taming" him.

Yes, he's Large and in Charge, one of the strongest boys in the webcomic, and has no reservations about beating thugs into a pulp if he needs to. He's also highly compassionate, cares deeply about his friends, and goes out of his way to look out for others when he can. Forrest successfully riles Ben not by targeting Ben himself, but by targeting his fellow students, guilting Ben into hunting him down.

Still it is amazing to see character go from this to this◊ in a short period of time, it helps that Guts is around his loved ones in the second picture and therefore softer. Pippin looks like a brute but is gentle as angel and is very protective over the younger members of the Band Of Hawk. Skull Knight is the most evil looking character on the side of good in the series but still saved a prostitute from falling to her death simply because he is benevolent.

The Hippo has a soft spot for Toph, who actually is an example herself. Toph Beifong is often rude, surly, and a frighteningly powerful Earthbender. Her rudeness and surliness is also a Freudian Excuse to cover her pain at being isolated from the outside world for most of her childhood and being seen as weak and helpless by her parents.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_7832b74c	comment	Steven Universe: Ruby, and by extension, Garnet. Ruby's emotions are anything but subtle - if she's angry, she's literally fuming, if she's upset, she doesn't hesitate to show tears, and if she's anywhere near her girlfriend, it's almost impossible to stop them from flirting. Garnet is a bit more stoic due to Sapphire's influence, but she still has a huge sweet side to her that mostly shows around her adopted son, Steven. Topaz is introduced as a silent, stoic fusion of two equally silent and stoic Topazes. However, when Steven and Lars start to talk about how they're scared but at least not alone, she breaks into tears, lamenting on how she wouldn't know what to do if her components didn't have each other, and how she hates going on missions. She's even willing to betray Homeworld to let Steven and Lars go back to Earth, since neither of them want to be there. It doesn't work, but still. Bismuth is a grizzled old Gem War survivor who was kept bubbled in Lion's mane for millennia because her go-to strategy during the war was "shatter anyone who gets in my way." When she's freed in the modern day and asked to be a part of Garnet's wedding, she misses her cue to hand over Ruby and Sapphire's rings because she's too busy bawling her eyes out.

For all his tough image, he is a strict Bully Hunter and protects students of his school quite ferociously. Even those who have personally moved against him. Foul-mouthed, unapproachable tough guy Shinjiro Aragaki in Persona 3 turns out to have a well-hidden soft center, hinted at in the main game but put on full display in the female protagonist's route in the portable version of the game. Persona 4 introduces Kanji Tatsumi, who embodies this trope and takes it to its logical conclusion - his "Bruiser" side was built around his insecurity regarding his soft side, which he was mocked for mercilessly, making him feel like a disappointment to his late father. This contrast, along with his desperate attempts to hide his "girly" traits, has made him sexually insecure and extremely defensive regarding his masculinity, causing him to be further shunned by others. Naturally, he gets better with the help of the protagonist, and the Golden Ending shows him toning down his "tough guy" antics and getting more in touch with himself.

When he is stabbed by a turncoat subordinate, he looks for a moment like he's about to reach out with his massive hands and rip the man apart. Instead, he kneels down and gives a tender hug to the much smaller man, and forgives him for his foolishness. Franky the Cyborg. At first, he seems a rough, tough, flashy, barely-clad punk, but then you learn his back story. Behind the brusque Made of Iron exterior is a man with quite a heart, and he can show this in rather unusual ways. Such as his old gang, the Franky Family. He took a bunch of backstreet punks, drifters, even a couple bottle fairies and gave them a purpose in life. In return, they genuinely love their "big bro" for seeing something in them no one could. He stole a bunch of money from the Straw Hats, then they learn it was to buy some rare but very tough wood to use to build a Cool Ship magnum opus, but after seeing the Straw Hats rescue Robin and after seeing their old ship carry herself beyond her limits to rescue them before finally giving out, he realizes there's a lot of heart in this crew, so he dedicates the ship to them, eventually joins them, and then builds a landing craft in the image of their old ship. He's also voluntarily built an elaborate memorial to Brook's old crew, the Rumbar Pirates, and fixed a derelict ship to give some newfound friends a way home. Zoro, despite not having the large build, is tougher and more intimidating than Franky, but has a soft spot for children and animals, so he's a nice guy beneath his hard exterior. Smoker is good early example as he looks like he'd kill a man without hesitation but when a little girl ran into him and got ice cream on his leg, he just bent down and gave her some money for a new one and apologizing that "his pants ate her ice cream". Worth noting Smoker comes from organisation where they give their people permission to kill civilians in the name of "Justice"... Token Good Teammate indeed. Charotte Katakuri is the best example of this post time-skip as he's built like a god and will kill anyone he perceives as threat without a second thought. But on the other hand he is a loving big brother who protects his younger sisters Brulee and Galatte (who are grown women) like their toddlers reducing the latter to tears.

Barret Wallace from Final Fantasy VII looks and acts like a brutish thug for a lot of the game but this abruptly stops when in the vicinity of his adoptive daughter Marleen and he becomes a Gentle Giant. Barret also cares deeply for his True Companions Cloud and Tifa, though he wouldn't admit willingly. Cloud the powerful Super-Soldier himself acts snarky, disinterested and aloof but when it comes down to the line he deeply cares for his loved ones, the prominent example being Tifa who can bring a rarely seen smile to Cloud's face in the Last Order: Final Fantasy VII OVA. Kimahri Ronso from Final Fantasy X plays this role; the tallest party member, who is usually cold and aloof - to the point that the main character thought he was mute until he spoke up for the first time. His behavior concerning Yuna shows his softer center, which he keeps very well hidden the rest of the time. Similarly Auron acts like an aloof and silent samurai but when it comes to Tidus, Yuna and even Rikku he is essentially Team Dad. Auron does this so well for Tidus that the latter respects him more than his own father Jecht. Snow Villiers from Final Fantasy XIII . He's big, muscly and punches monsters twice his size square in the face! He also has a Badass Adorable girlfriend note who is only three years younger than him, it's just that he's more than a foot taller than her that he dotes on and can take punches from the bad guys just as well as he can give them.

Jonathan Joestar, the first JoJo in the series, is the best example of a powerful built man being a true gentleman. His compassion and heroism would be passed down to his descendants long after his death. Jonathan's descendant, Jotaro may surpass his ancestor as a bruiser, since he's no gentleman, and he's not kind his opponents in the slightest, as they get a nasty beating from his Stand, Star Platinum. All the same, he's got a Hidden Heart of Gold, who cares quite a bit about his family and friends.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm has a few, notably canon examples Hulk and Thor - the former is the Strongest One There Is, yet is also compulsively protective of children, referring to Harry Potter/Thorson as 'Little God' and notably calming down when he's around. The latter can go toe to toe with the former and can destroy planets in the midst of Unstoppable Rage. He also enjoys snuggling with his brother and son. Harry himself shoots up height wise, gaining a bit of muscle and by chapter 70, enough raw power to blow up a reasonably sized mountain. He, like his father, is a Cuddle Bug who likes nothing more than snuggling up to loved ones and is generally a sensitive and emotive person, taking care to be kind to those smaller and less advantaged than he is. Even after a Trauma Conga Line in the sequel, when his PTSD makes him a much less pleasant person to be around for a period (he gets better), he still takes care to be protective of those less advantaged than he is. He also adores Tony and Pepper's daughter, Ada, in the sequel (appropriate, since she's his goddaughter). Carol Danvers is less obvious about it, being a Hot-Blooded fighter whose primary tactics in a fight are based around speed and raw aggression with a spiky and defensive personality. She also has a Cool Big Sis streak a mile-wide, usually demonstrated with smaller and younger girls (even though Diana could tear her in half), right down to protective cuddling. She's also deeply and extremely violently protective of her little brothers and, latterly, Peter Parker. She also tends towards affectionately snuggling Harry towards the end of the first book and during the second, and is as emotionally protective of him as she is physically of others.

This is seen when she gets the hang of using Senketsu and is able to take out scores of Two-Star club leaders in a quick montage, before enjoying her lunch with her best friend, Mako. In a touching scene between the two, Ryuko allows her BFF to feed her a croquette while happily chatting with her.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_d5ddd6c1	comment	PokÃ©mon: The Series: Dawn's Mamoswine in the "Diamond and Pearl" anime series is all about this once he reaches his final stage. He acts all gruff, ignores his trainer for a while, and becomes The Berserker when angered (or when Dawn denies him/is short on Poffins). Yet he's definitely caring and protective towards his trainer and friends (especially after mellowing out), becomes putty whenever food is in question, and steadily shows fascination with Contests. Yet true to being of the emotionally repressed variety, he tries (initially) to deny all this. Latios of PokÃ©mon Heroes is a Legendary Dragon who introduces himself by tackling Ash and Pikachu and shows no signs of backing down when they accidentally stumbled into the Secret Garden. After the others showed it's a misunderstanding and that they didn't mean to intrude, he gives Pikachu an affectionate lick and while playing with his beloved little sister Latias, allowed him to ride on his back and join in on the fun. PokÃ©mon Journeys: The Series has Ash's Dragonite, who is tough enough to go toe to toe with a Mega-Evolved Pokemon, but has a Cuddle Bug personality when not fighting.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_ec28245c	comment	Dragon Ball Z: Android 16 is one of the bigger character in the series, is nearly emotionless, lives to kill Goku, and is the strongest of all the androids outside of Cell. One of the first signs that 16 is more than just a killing machine, he loves to play with animals. He goes against Cell because he is an enemy to all living things. Android 17 and 18 follow his lead when comes to protecting and cherishing life. Piccolo takes longer for this to happen being the reincarnation of his mass murdering evil father but is nevertheless a Nice Guy after bonding with Gohan to point of shedding some Tender Tears. It's still heart warming that Piccolo can brutalize his foes◊ on numerous occasions but then play babysitter◊ with no trouble. The anime actually set this up early with Piccolo as he saved a mother and daughter from debris during a storm in his first appearance even though he was planing to kill Goku and Take Over the World. Vegeta takes even longer than Piccolo but towards the end of Z and during Super and GT he shows unconditional care for his wife, son and daughter. In Wrath of the Dragon Vegeta even protects innocent bystanders from Hirudegarn, a far cry from a man who murdered a village, beat up a child and blew a truck driver in the previous two sagas. Goku to an extent. Goku has the physical body of a Greek god and is one of the strongest characters in the universe. He also one of the softest with his love of animals and life in general. This trait also carried over to his sons once theyâ€™ve become teenagers. Future Trunks. He comes from a Bad Future and is the most merciless of the main characters who aren't anti-heroes. He also has a soft spot for animals and is often seen playing with squirrels when relaxing.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_ef661e97	comment	Street Fighter has many examples. Blanka is a savage monster, who loves his mother and is best friends with Sakura and Dan. Zangief looks like brute and in a few cartoons and one animated movie he is portrayed as a villain. But in the canon Zangief is actually a Nice Guy who entered a tournament partly to win the admiration of a group of school children. Zangief also shows care to his protegee R. Mika and protected her and Ibuki from Murasame-wielding assassin by using Muscle Power to break the kantana in the story mode. At one point he gets tackled by a possessed Abel and Zangief just applauds the strength of attack and pats Abel on the back before knocking him out. Sagat looks more like a villain than Gief above and distrusted by most of the World Warriors for his brief alignment with Shadowloo, however Sagat is more of a Noble Demon as he along with Dhalsim protect a villagers and children in Street Fighter X Tekken. Guile is a hot headed, hard faced stoic soldier but he's also a Family Man who cares deeply for his friend especially Charlie, Chun-Li and Cammy. Guile also gets some Character Development as after going a Roaring Rampage of Revenge due to Charlie's supposed death at Bison's hands Guile mellows so much he stops Chun-Li on pursuing revenge. Hugo is mostly Dumb Muscle but he does care for Poison and has Gentle Giant aspects. Even freaking Akuma has some shades of this, while he did kill Gouken and acts like a murderous demonic asshole most of the time, Akuma still doesn't hurt innocents and has been put in softer situations like making friends with Elena◊ so at he's very worst Akuma is only Chaotic Neutral. Oni on the otherhand is another story.

Obi-Wan Kenobi (after a bout of involuntary time travel, several years after Revenge of the Sith) is one of the greatest combatants in the Jedi Order, and the galaxy as a whole. He's a near peerless Master Swordsman, an exceptionally powerful Jedi, and a dangerous hand to hand combatant. He terrifies and/or creeps out most of his fellow Jedi, even Mandalorians think he's crazy (albeit, eventually, crazy awesome), and those who actually know who he really is find him particularly unnerving. Obi-Wan is a sweet, principled, and maybe somewhat emotional kid who wears his heart on his sleeve. Ben Naasade is calm, elegant, charming, with an eerie understanding of the Force, the demeanour of a general, the grey morality of someone who survived a truly brutal war, a knack for passive and active manipulation that beggars belief, and truly epic PTSD, leading more than one person to wonder what the hell happened to him. He is also a Friend to All Children, spoils little Anakin horribly, is most content when playing with children in the Creche, and turns to goo the moment a baby smiles at him.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_fa738078	comment	Makoto Kino / Sailor Jupiter from Sailor Moon is a tall, brawny girl with almost inhuman physical strength, a reputation for brawling, and zero tolerance for those who pick on her loved ones. She is also very warm, accommodating, and encouraging towards people she likes, and the Senshi refer to her as their surrogate older sister, as do some kids she helps take care of at a daycare. Also, she's emotionally vulnerable due to her past romantic fallout, being a social outcast, and the death of her parents, and is a bit of an easy crier. Her dream is to get married to a man she can care for, and own a flower shop or a bakery.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_fd0b756	comment	The Hobbit: Beorn is a giant, terrifying were-bear and it is not a good idea to antagonize him. He also has a lot of animals from ponies to bees, all of which he cares very much for, to the point that you had damn well better make sure any animals he allows you to take for assistance get back to him unharmed.

Bruiser with a Soft Center / int_fdbace96	comment	Grunkle Stanley Pines from Gravity Falls. He may be a tough, greedy old trickster with a mean right hook, but when it comes to his family he'd do literally anything for them, even sacrifice himself for their sake.
