New York commuter prefers the company of a goblin wearing the same outfit as him

New York has truly seen it all.

This week on the subway, @bootyslime observed a man sit down and casually take a goblin out of his bag wearing the same outfit as him. He then proceeded to put the thing on his lap like a child.

This strange scene was corroborated by another watchful New Yorker who took video of this odd pair.

After further research, the internet learned that this goblin is actually a "werepup," or a very realistic looking "werewolf baby." Alright, sure. But why get dressed in matching outfits?

Once you visit the website, they're a lot to take in.

And also frightening.

Well, you learn something new everyday. At least the subway man's werepup was nicely dressed and lived in an expensive Nike bag? Nothing but the best for his werepup?

Either way, it certainly makes riding the subway a lot more interesting.
