001 { howling in the dead of night }

[determinedhowl]

Characters: Koromaru and you, good sirs and madams!
Setting: All around the tower, starting in room 3-04.
Format: Starting in prose, but I'll match your preference.
Summary: Puppy did not have a good few weeks in the tower. Why all his friends either not here or acting strangely? :(
Warnings: Possible omg cute while everything else goes to hell pfffffffffffffffft.

The last three weeks have been very confusing for the humans he's seen, and even more so for the canine that awakened in a strange room with three strange people he didn't know. Though, they did seem to be okay... and running into Chie-san wasn't too bad, either!

But... where were his friends?

He couldn't really put his own collar on by himself (we do not count the one he awoke with, it doesn't do the same thing), so he carried it in his mouth for a while, unless someone was kind enough to put it on him. Really, he looked kind of down about it as he began searching every floor for any sign of them being alright.

Probably didn't help that the last thing he saw was one of his closest friends flying up to the moon on his own as they cried out for him...

"Uh..." She paused, trying to figure out how to answer that once she'd decoded it.

"It's somethin' to do with the tower. It does weird stuff to time an' all that--most a' my friends ain't got a clue who I am 'cause they ain't met me yet."

Another pause.

"That doesn't make a bit a' sense when I say it like that."

He merely tilted his head to the side at that one, curious. What. How can they not know you yet? That made a little sense but just... what.

Okay, he whined a little too. Hey, they're still your friends, right?

[fuhgeddaboudit]

"Yeah, it's okay. They're still them, so it don't really matter all that much."

[determinedhowl]

'That's good.' He seemed happy about that, because if they had turned their back on a future friend, then he'd have to growl at them. And no one liked it when he howled... Things tended to spontaneously combust.

Yes, he was kidding. He wouldn't set anyone on fire unless they hurt someone else.
