smooth one's / sb's (ruffled) feathers

to make oneself (or somebody else) feel less irritated or offended

Lacon was no fool, and the Cousin's wrath just when everyone was trying to smooth their feathers was a thing to be avoided at any cost.

ruffle

Ruffle is a substitute for the internet phrase ROFL. ROFL as one word sounds a bit like ruffle. It's less annoying than internet-speak acronyms and can also have multiple uses.

That was so funny it made me ruffle.
