Bubba took his hand and squeezed his fingers inside his massive paw, and Kaos’s mind provided the word “bear” out of the blue. He wasn’t even shocked that Bubba didn’t squish his fingers, because by now he really was pleasantly surprised by the huge man.
“Nice to meet you too.” Bubba looked at the folder in front of Kaos. “That your portfolio?”
Kaos smiled. “Yeah, wanna see?” He lifted it to the client’s side and turned it around for Bubba.
“Christa said she’s gotten a new artist. I wasn’t sure. I mean, I liked what her ex could do, asshole as he was, really. She’s great as well. I like her versatility a lot.” Bubba seemed to really be interested in Kaos’s art. He stopped to look at some of his pieces as he continued to chat. “She did this awesome horror unicorn for my partner last year. I think she has a picture of it somewhere on the wall there.”
“Oh yeah, I’ve seen it. Really unique-looking.”
