Grounds outside the dorms - Afternoon

[first-guardian.livejournal.com]

Ichigo was in fact not doing much of anything. He couldn't quite remember when the last time was that he wasn't busy doing something. His first class was tomorrow, he'd pretty much explored the dorms, the school and town and now that the weather was nice, he'd planted his ass down on the grass.

The far off look he had was all about his contemplating what would happen if he took a skateboard down Apocalypse Avenue - who named these streets anyway? - and nothing with far off voices in the back of his head. Okay, one voice, but it was moot as he wasn't thinking of that.

The bear reared up on its hind legs (it was hard work hopping around on three), and grinned, then thrust the bottle at him again.

Ichigo started as he now got to see exactly how big the bear was. And that was some toothy smile. His eyes closed when the bear offered the bottle once more, expecting something... It didn't come and he cracked open one eye, finding he was still in one piece.

And staring at the bottle. He tentatively reached for it, ready to bolt if it was a trap.

The bear nodded enthusiastically and held the bottle out further.

"No attacking me when you have your paws free," he told the bear. "I have fought a lot of scarier things than you."

He was losing it. Four days in this place and he was already losing it. He was going to reach for the bottle and then duck. On three.

One... Two... Two and a half...

Reach and duck.

The bear grinned again and dropped back down to all fours and sat, looking at Ichigo with wide expectant eyes.

Huh...

Finally deciding that the bear wasn't going to attack, Ichigo plopped back down on the grass too. He eyed the bear and then the bottle, bringing it closer to sniff it.

"It's just soda," he mused, glancing back at the bear. "So now what? We each drink a sip and bond over our pasts?"

The bear flipped it ears in confusion, and gestured at the bottle with one huge paw.

"Yeah okay. I'm drinking. I'm drinking," Ichigo waved him off and quickly took a sip. "There. Happy?"

[fh_beasties]

To judge by appearances, the bear was very happy. It bounced up, gamboled in a circle around Ichigo, then trotted away.

A bouncing bear?

Ichigo took another loooong drink and then decided that no one needed to know about this. He should probably go inside however, just to make sure he didn't run into a leopard with cheesecakes next.
