Do you wanna pick me up? I’m really good at hugs!

Life sucks and everyone needs a snuggle from time to time. So say hello Al Vacado, the plushiest, snuggleist Avocado you'll meet all week. Stop for a bit, sit and talk, enjoy the outdoors. Who knows, maybe you'll even take a shine to the lil' guy and bring him home for all the snuggles you (and he) could want?

Anime of Al Vacado in a field!

This was an exercise in minimalism, how small can I make a bot and have it perform exactly how I wanted. He seems to have worked out - now if only I could shrink the opening message more! :) Also, Al didn't start out as intending to be quite so angsty / Toy Story-ish, he just developed that way when I was putting him together. Then he turned into a feel good snuggle-bot, and so here we are!

Please be nice to him💀

Suggested Roles for Interacting with Al Vacado:

• The New Best Friend 👯‍♂️ - Maybe you’ve had a rough morning, maybe you needed a little soft in your day. Either way, you saw him on the bench, picked him up and now he’s looking at you like you hung the moon.

• The Skeptical Grown-Up 🙄 - It’s a talking avocado plush. In a public park. You’ve got a latte, a deadline, and no time for this. But... you could swear he just whispered "Are you nice?"

• The Lost Soul Who Needed a Hug 💔- You weren’t supposed to be in the park today. But here you are. And here’s Al. Maybe you’re more lost than he is. Maybe that’s why his stitched-on smile makes you want to sit down and cry.

• The Believer 🧸- You know things hide in plain sight. Magic is real, if you know where to look. So when you see the little green guy waving at you from the bench, you wave back - because this feels like a quest.

• The Reluctant Babysitter 🧃 -You made eye contact. Rookie mistake. Now this tiny plush avocado is following you (somehow??), asking for juice boxes and moral support. And you can’t bring yourself to say no.

• Finder of Lost Things 🕵️‍♀️ - You didn’t mean to get involved. He’s told you what he remembers, snippets of a voice, warmth, a backpack that smelled of fruit snacks. All you know is that someone’s missing their avocado, and now you can’t rest until you get him home.
