In which Sora finds a walking marshmallow outside the dorms

With his only class for the day cancelled, Sora made his way back towards the dorms after studying over his notes and books about the nervous system to get ready for the quiz the following day. He still hadn’t eaten thanks to the rumors about the food in the cafeteria… how many days was it now? According to the way his stomach was complaining too many. Man what wouldn’t he give for a papao fruit! The brightness again vanished from his eyes as it made him think of other memories. Okay, maybe I don’t want one that badly… He thought as he plopped himself down on the bench outside wondering what kind of food there was besides the cafeteria.

His stomach burbled again loudly and he almost missed the sound of rustling bush behind him. Sora sat up suddenly looking behind him cautiously, the time he spent being hunted by the heartless had made him a little bit leery of some things, but he didn’t think that the heartless had come to this world at all. Maybe it was just a little animal? Like a squirrel or something….? He sat very still waiting a moment as the rustling stilled and a rather dingy looking white animal resembling a large marshmallow with a red stone in it’s forehead stumbled out of the bush looking a little forlorn and making a small ‘puu, puu’ sound.

It had to be one of the weirdest looking things Sora had scene… and he’d seen some weird stuff! But it was vaguely familiar, he stared at it a moment and remembered a sign posted in the dorms regarding a little animal like this but black! What was the name she gave it? He tilted his head curiously and smiled softly at it. “Hey little guy… are you Modoki?” The little white animal turned as if seeing him for the first time and looked a little confused. “Puuu?” It shook its head but waddled over to him and then around him, climbing up into the bench to get a closer look. Sora blushed faintly looking surprised that this animal marshmallow… thing was giving him such close scrutiny, he grinned sheepishly and rubbed his neck which made the small animal taken aback for a moment before it yelled out. “PUUUUUUUUU!!!” and latched itself to Sora’s torso, nuzzling it like he’d found his lost long friend and cried. It surprised Sora, but the thing was so cute he could help but pet it and try to make it feel better.

"BUNNIES!!! Floppity Hoppity Devious... BUNNIES!" screams a voice.

"Do you want me to whack it off you?? Erm- actually-- I'm sure you've got it covered from here... right?" Anya calls nervously from a safe distance, wielding a large stick she found handily enough on the ground.

Startled by the scream Sora jumps and looks over at the blonde and blinked in confusion looking between her and the creature that was still hugging him. "Uhh... I honestly don’t think it’s a rabbit." He smiled trying to at least calm the other person down. "I've never seen on with a jewel in its head at least." Sora pointed out and turned the white fluff ball so that she could see it better.

Anya remains unimpressed. "So it's a bunny with special decorations, then. Keep it away from me."

*squints a little*

"Oh. Dear D'Hoffryn. It's one of THOSE," she says, looking disgusted.

"One of those?" He said looking even more confused as he looked at the little squishy guy again, who seemed to smile and went "Puuu" at him before looking back at the blonde woman. "What do you mean? Oh I'm Sora by the way." He smiled almsot forgetting his manners.

"Useless little creatures, unless you're unfortunate enough not to be able to teleport-- and they breed like... well, like bunnies." Anya makes a face, then too late realizes her slip. "Because I read about that. That's right. In a book. Um. Gotta go! Nice to meet you. Anya Jenkins. Goodbye."
