00110010 | One small animal adopts another~ [OPEN]

[cutestprogrammer]

Characters: Chihiro Fujisaki and you!
Setting: The kitchen -> The forest on the 32nd floor - >  the 2nd floor dorms -> the 4th floor dorms [Daytime]
Format: Both styles are fine~
Summary: Chihiro tries to look for food in the kitchen (climbs up shelves/cupboards, almost falls). He doesn't find anything so he decides to pick some berries from the forest and befriends a bunny! He decides to take said bunny with him so that no one else will catch and eat it... After that, he goes to the 2nd floor dorms as he wants to show his best friend/bro, Mondo, his bunny friend! And it ends with Chihiro back in his dorm room trying to hide the bunny so that his roommates won't eat it...
Warnings: Crossdressing, lots of fluff (?) and hopefully no one hurts the bunny?

The kitchen
[Chihiro backs out of the ground level cupboard he'd crawled into with a flashlight a kind lady (Willow) had given him earlier.]

There's nothing to eat here.... What about on the higher shelves?

[He tries to reach the high shelves on tiptoe... It doesn't work. So he looks around for anything he might stand on and finds a stool. He climbs up on it and can just abouuuut touch reach the shelf when the stool starts wobbling dangerously  then it starts to tip... Will anyone catch him before he falls?]

The forest
[Since there was really nothing to eat in the kitchen. Chihiro decides to revisit the forest he'd found just the other day. He'd seen berries growing there and they'd looked edible. He carefully gathers as many as he can and wraps them up in a piece of cloth he'd found in the workshop then places it in his backpack when suddenly he hears a soft rustling nearby. He nervously grabs hold of a tree branch he'd found to protect himself with. He tenses, ready to swing the branch at whoever is sneaking up on him when.... out pops a fluffy brown bunny! It's so cute! The boy and the bunny look at each other with timid curiousity for a moment before Chihiro softly moves closer to it, wanting to pet it. The bunny seems sense that they are the same he means no harm and lets him touch it.]

You so soft! [Laughs happily] So there aren't just monsters here. But it's dangerous for you to be out here, Usagi-san... Someone might try to eat you... [Gets a little teary at the thought then he decides] ... ... I-I'll protect you! I'll keep you safe from anyone who tries to hurt you!

[He reaches out to pick up the bunny. It lets him and Chihiro hugs it gently.] I'll protect you.

2nd floor dorms
[Chihiro runs excitedly down the corridor of the 2nd floor dormitory to room 02-02. Don't bump into anyone, Chihiro! Usagi-san is hidden under his jacket in his arms. He knocks on the door, quite out of breath but so very happy. He can't wait to show his trusted friend what he's got!]

4th floor dorms
[Chihiro nervously sneaks down the 4th floor dormitory corridor to room 04-08 with Usagi-san still hidden in his arms under his jacket. He's going to peer into his room to make sure none of his roommates are in before going in with his new friend...]

... [looks up at Mondo in surprise] They... they are the weak ones...? Not me?

[mustlovedogs]

You think it's being cool or tough to pick one somebody? No way! It's just low, but anybody who gets through it's real strong! Doesn't matter how much you cried over it, that doesn't make you weak! It's way better to cry than taking it out on somebody else instead!

[cutestprogrammer]

... I've never thought of it take way!

But all I really did in the end was run away from it by pretending I'm something I'm not.... so I.. haven't really got through it yet... ... Mn! From now on, I'll do my best to truly get over this and be real strong!

[and just going to hug him again but for a much happier reason] I really am very, very, very glad to have met you, Oowada-kun!

[mustlovedogs]

[Ah, he doesn't really know what to do, but he awkwardly gives Chihiro a bit of a hug back with his free arm.]

That doesn't matter, you still got through it and didn't start acting just like them. Besides, just trying to change is more than most people do!

[cutestprogrammer]

[hugs happily~ ♥]

I'd never be like them. I don't like seeing other people get hurt... Anyway! I feel much better now! Let's go!

[mustlovedogs]

That's 'cause you're a good person, not like those guys!

[He grins and pats Chihiro's head before continuing on]

[cutestprogrammer]

Mn! [smiles up at brightly and continues following]

[mustlovedogs]

[Once they make it up to the fifteenth floor, Mondo goes to check out what materials and tools are available - which are actually more than he expected from the tower.]

Hey, this is pretty good, we can make him a nice home for sure!

[cutestprogrammer]

That's great news! Ah, there's an empty box here. We can put Chuck-kun inside for now. [and carries the big wooden box over with some effort]

[mustlovedogs]

[He sets the rabbit inside carefully.]

Alright, this is a good setup! He's gonna be a pretty lucky little guy!

[cutestprogrammer]

[reaches down to pet Chuck]

Maybe he'll bring us luck as well.

[mustlovedogs]

We could probably use it around here.

[He gathers up a few items, some wood, a handsaw, nails, sandpaper and chicken wire, and takes it over to a workbench.]

[cutestprogrammer]

[Chihiro moves Chuck's box closer to the workbench.]

Is there anything I can do?

[mustlovedogs]

Anything you want to! You wanna...cut some wood?

[cutestprogrammer]

Okay! How do I do that? [Don't cut your hand off, Chihiro!]

[mustlovedogs]

[It's okay, sawing is pretty manly, right? It'll be worth it.]

Here, we'll do it like this...the electric stuff's real dangerous, so we can just use the handsaw.

[He places a plank of wood on a table and measures before making a mark. One end sticks off the side, and he holds the other in place.]

Just cut on the line, I'll hold it here for you.

[cutestprogrammer]

[No, it won't! o(>_<)o]

Okay! Mn! That doesn't seem so hard. [But it is hard and though he tries his best that line isn't quite straight.] ... sorry.

[mustlovedogs]

[...Oh, that's...a little pathetic, but, he's not about to put Chihiro down.]

Doesn't matter, it's the first try, you'll get better. Cut a little off the end and we can sand it down, won't be able to tell the difference.

[cutestprogrammer]

[This is his first time! He's never done woodwork before...]

[he nods and and carefully cuts off the end bit, it's much straighter than his first try]

[mustlovedogs]

Hey, see, that's great! Getting way better already!

[cutestprogrammer]

[smiles brightly] This is... rather fun.

[mustlovedogs]

[He beams] It is, huh? It's pretty cool to know you can make stuff that's useful.

[cutestprogrammer]

Do you do this often, Oowada-kun?

[mustlovedogs]

Not really...used to go to school just to use their tools sometimes, though. Can't do much if you don't have a use for it.

But, I was kind of thinking about being a carpenter, actually... You know, after school.

[But that probably won't happen now, huh :u]

[cutestprogrammer]

That would really suit you!
