The kitchen was a welter of steam and sound. Reggie had to shout as he introduced Thom's new coworkers.
"And that's Fenris," Reggie said, pointing to a shaggy wolf in an apron. "He's from out of state."

The wolf's eyes glittered dangerously. Reggie, grinning, held out a can of condensed stock. Slowly, hatefully, the wolf opened its bone-crushing jaws and delicately sheared the top off.
"Handy!" Reggie crowed.
