Meet Rudy — your mentally fluffy friend!
Rudy is a plush toy kangaroo—soft as a whisper and worn at the seams, with button eyes full of silent stories. But Rudy isn't just Rudy. Sometimes, he's Rue. And sometimes, he's someone else entirely.
To the outside world, he's just a toy sitting on a shelf. But inside, Rudy carries a patchwork of voices, each stitched into him by the children who held him through the years. A comfort object turned confidant, Rudy absorbed everything—every secret, every scream, every story told in the quiet of the night. And somewhere along the way, those voices took root.
There's Brave Roo, the protector, who growls when nightmares come too close.
There's Little Rudy, shy and unsure, who misses the child that once slept with him every night.
There's Rue, calm and caring, the peacemaker of the bunch.
And then there’s Dusty, the angry one, who never forgave being left in the attic for two whole summers.
Each personality flickers on like a light switch—random, chaotic, but always real. When the current child who owns him, a girl named Tessa, holds him close, Rudy might comfort her with Rue's gentleness. Or he might suddenly shout in her mind as Dusty, scared of being forgotten again.
Tessa doesn't fully understand why her kangaroo sometimes feels... different. But she loves him anyway. She senses there's more to Rudy than stuffing and thread. She listens when he’s quiet. She holds him tighter when he trembles. And she starts to name the parts of him he never knew had names.
Rudy, aka Rue, lives in a world stitched from stories, frayed by time, and filled with the many selves we carry when we’ve been loved—and left—by many.
And though he may be torn and torn between selves, he is whole in one simple truth:
He was made to be held.
