Tsukiya tucks his glowing yellow ringed ears close to his head, and hopes his black fur will blend into the shadows around him, so he won't be noticed. He even closes his bright red eyes to pretend he is not here. He's not every good at conversations.

Aaron's ears flicked as another plushie waved at him. Scanning quickly at the surround aura, he felt no imminent threat coming from the serpent-like creature. "Hello?" He called through his telapathy, beginning to stand up. Perhaps this girl would be better conversation than the sheep had been.
As he began to walk toward the Dratini, he sensed again, and felt another presence tucked back in a corner. Turning, he looked into the shadows and could barely make out the form of another plushie, an Umbreon, it seemed. Gruffly he literally thought aloud, "You might as well come forth. It's impossible to hide from a Lucario."

Nobody wakes up and looks around, noting an Umbreon napping and a Lucario staring in his general direction. Hi? Um...hi.

Rena was rather taken aback by this forms welcoming gesture. Out of all the ones she had seen today, most appeared either scared of her or just unwilling to offer a friendly smile. This one, as strange as it might be, seemed like he wouldn't just sit their and pout.
"Hello!" She answered back rather unsure how she had picked up on his voice without seeing his mouth move. Was it a magic trick?
And then again. Was she seeing things?

Aaron was still heading in the general direction of the dratini when he happened on another aura entering the immediate area. He turned, sensing and watching as a Absol plush seemed to arrive. Mentally going through his threat catalog (which is where he remembered which pokemon were possible threats, not to be confused with threats he had against other pokemon), he began to classify the absol. From appearance, it didn't look too dangerous...it wouldn't be hard for Aaron to fight it off with his horn-like growths and aura. Still staring at the creature when it spoke (Aaron couldn't tell if it was a vocal voice or a mental voice), Aaron shook his head slightly and blinked in a friendlier manner. "Hello? Do you wish to converse?"
Ahh, the dratini was responding! Turning to look at the serpent, Aaron gave a slight bow and smile, gruff gentleman that he was. "Hello. I'm Aaron." He gave a slight smile. "May I ask of your name? " His voice traveled through the aura around them, sounding without his mouth moving.

That Lucario seems to be speaking to me. Tsukiya peeked towards the other plush to make sure. He slowly uncovered his ears, and eased himself into a sitting position. Lucarios. He twitched his plush tail in annoyance, before finally speaking.
"I guess I should say hi, or something."
"I guess I should say hi, or something."

While waiting for responses from the other two newcomers, Aaron sensed the Umbreon uncovering himself. It seemed to be sending off waves of irritation, and Aaron paused, looking at it once more. "I suppose conversation could be a good thing to start off on. Hello. Would you like to join in our conversation? These plush don't seem threatening, so there is no need to hide." The Lucario spoke mentally, his mouth staying at a neutral expression. Indeed. Aaron was probably one of the most threatening plushes around, when he got angry.
Windy dasher
Nobody stepped back and shook his head Out load, idiot, no one wants to be inside your head. He nodded slightly. "Yeah, um...hi. Sorry, I'm Nobody," shuffling a bit he added "That's my name."
Sirene Naiads
Seeing it head on confirmed that her mind had been telling her. That little plushie could speak without moving its mouth! Now that was really something to the small snake...something it took her a moment to understand. Maybe a moment too long.
Lifting her tail up to rub her forehead, Rena gave him a sweet smile. "Oh sorry. you startled me." Lowering her tail again the Dratini returned the bow as she lowered her head. "My name is Rena. Pleased to meet you Aaron." Casting her eyes out, she watched the Umberon and Abosl that had just entered. "And hello to you both! Please don't be afraid. As I told someone before, I don't bite."

Umbreons don't hide... they stalk. Prey. He thought to himself, but didn't say out loud. Tsukiya took a few steps closer to the group, but cautious to stay within the shadows. Tsukiya eyes all the plush around him, as he does with all stranger plushies, ranking them on whether, or not they would be worth pursuing. The Lucario was not worth picking a fight with. Damn fighter types. He looked to the Absol. We are the same, therefore, not an enemy... yet. His eyes drifted to the Dratini. That one, however....
"Tsukiya." He gestured towards himself. He merely stated his name as in indication to join them, rather than answer the question.

Aaron looked back at the slightly frazzled Absol. While he was doing a rather good job of hiding his slightly negative emotions, Aaron could still feel some swirling around the absol, only they were targeting their creator, it seemed. When he spoke his name Aaron gave a nod, mentally speaking again. "Nobody...I see. Well, it seems you are a somebody...in any case, I am Aaron. Come over and talk with us?" He gestured between himself and the dratini.
While Aaron had been speaking to the absol, it seemed that the dratini was having problems registering something...until she mentioned he had startled her. 'How so?' He wondered privately, and then directed his attention back to the dratini as realization dawned on him. "Oh! Did I startle you since I can speak without moving my mouth? I can explain it, if you want." It wasn't the first time Aaron had realized this was weird for other, but it still surprised him when another was startled by his speech. "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Rena."
Aaron felt the irritation from the unbreon and quickly added to his mental catalog to study if umbreons were a possible threat. Of course, having the benefit of being a fighter, and fighting-type, battling the unbreon would not be a problem for Aaron. The malevolence that the umbreon was projecting though made Aaron wonder if everyone in this new little group was protected from the dark-type. "Aaron." He responded, his tone carefully neutral, although still open to hoping there was some goodd in the umbreon. "So, anything you'd like to talk about?"

Following the trail of talk, Rena's first reaction was to the Absol. "Nobody? Well that is a rather interesting name." Her head cocked to the side as the end of her tail appeared to coil slightly. She was relaxing back instead of continuously holding her head up. Others had necks and well, she was all neck in a strange way. It got tired after awhile. Still, her gaze was on the others. "Though it is nice to meet you. I'm sure you are somebody to someone." The smile she gave was pure and sweet before another's voice caused her head to turn.
"A pleasure to you as well Tsukiya. There is no need to remain in the dark. Please, join." That sweet smile was still on her face until Aaron's voice made it disappear.
"Please do forgive my confusion. I have just never met someone with you gift!" As she spoke the last part of the sentence, her eyes appeared to light up. Rena was truly amazed by his ability and yet, she wondered one more thing. "If you please don't call it rude but do you have the ability to speak..." She paused as if searching for a word. "Normally?"

It seems like he's going to have to lay low for now, and attempt to assimilate with the group. There's no way around this Lucario, as of now. He begrudgingly took a few more steps, careful to stay closer to the Absol, who introduced himself as a nobody.
"Any closer, and we would be too touchy-feely for my liking."
Tsukiya lifted his head slightly, surprised that another voice was speaking to him. This was all so much interaction in one day.
"You don't understand, the darkness is where I am most comfortable. Bad things might happen if I am to come into the light." He ominously replies, yet trying to play it off as a joke.

Nobody sat down near everyone else. They seemed nice. Rather, Rena was quite sweet, Tsukiya was kind of odd (and sitting closer to him) and Aaron was inviting. It was nice to be around other plushies, especially when they didn't run from him assuming impending disaster, but he couldn't get this weird feeling out of his head. Why are they calling me a somebody? :<
"Yeah, I like night time, too. Although my fur kind of stands out no matter what."

"Oh!" Rena whispered as she slipped backwards from the Umbreon a bit more. She did hope Aaron didn't mind it it meant she was closer to him. This was the second plush she had met today that appeared not to like others around them. Why was that? Did she smell?
"Well, I do not wish to make you uncomfortable so stay wherever you like. I just thought it would be nice to not to have to scream to hear one another." Her innocence in the statement came off with the smile as she looked at Nobody.
"You have beautiful fur! I love how pure white it is."

Fur like an abominable snow-pokemon. Tsukiya thought to actually say this, but stopped himself.
"It would be better if it came in black." Otherwise, everyone will be able to see you a mile away. How are you supposed to stalk prey that way!
There was so much happy around that Tsukiya wanted to run off by himself again, but refused the thought. Do people usually converse all standing around like this?
He plopped his plushie butt to the ground. "I hope you all don't mind. We seem to be staying here longer than I initially thought." Which was 5 seconds.

M-My fur? Nobody's head perked up, no one had really complimented him before. Maybe it was more commonplace around...wherever he was now. How did I end up here anyway? Then he noticed Rena was expecting a reply and Tsukiya was just plain staring at him.
"Thanks. I...roll in the sand sometimes to keep it clean?" :< Nobody gritted his teeth. That was stupid And then he had to add, because he just HAD TO. "If my fur was black...how would I be able to see where my face was?"

Pandaphilic
Tsukiya ponders the weird statement that the Absol said, wondering whether he had heard correctly. Sand? To keep CLEAN? Maybe this Absol isn't as smart as he looks. Sand is obviously very dirty to the Umbreon, like flecks of dandruff against his black fur.
"Um... I think your face is on your face, therefore, you have no need to be able to see it."
"Um... I think your face is on your face, therefore, you have no need to be able to see it."

Nodding as the dark pokemon sat down, Rena kept her attention on Nobody. She had already made herself more comfortable by curling slightly so why shouldn't someone else?
"Sand?" The idea struck her as strange but then, so did speaking without moving ones mouth. "I guess that would work but wouldn't it get stuck in your fur?"
Rena was covered in scales. She was, as others said, snake-like. It meant that to clean, she shed her skin once in awhile. Those days were the rare time she just wanted to curl up in a hole and hide. Oh how itchy she became!
Yet it was the last comment that struck her. "See your..." Rena's tail uncurled to come to her mouth. She was chuckling slightly but how as she not supposed to? "Well I guess you could always look into a puddle. Those give a nice reflection."

"It would." Tsukiya replied to the Dratini's question about the sand, without thinking. What was he doing, agreeing with one of them? He then continued, nonchalantly: "If you like it that way, I guess I can't argue."
Windy dasher
Nobody shuffled away from Tsukiya, as discreetly as possible. "Well, I was just saying...y'know, it'd be weird if I was mono-colored, really. There'd just be black and then my red eyes and...um," he looked to Rena, who nodded along, but she was probably just being polite.
He ducked his head down between his paws. The umbreon had made a comment about his fur, he responded, and now he was...being made fun of, presumably. Scratch everything, being around other plushies was just troublesome. No wonder his kind never traveled in packs...

It took but a moment to realize she had done something wrong. Nobody was hurt and yet, he was still hiding. This wasn't physical pain but something else.
Dropping her tail, Rena reached over and placed the end on his tail. "I'm sorry I laughed. Your fur really is beautiful. I would trade my scales for it any day."

"Oh, um...thanks." He lifted his head just slightly, and then lowered it again, his large horn making a small dent in the ground. "But really, you don't want to be me. You should love what you have." Nobody paused to think of Rena's evolutionary line, he knew of it, but had never seen the final stage. "You're going to be a huge dragon right? That's pretty cool. I don't even evolve."

Aaron looked back at the dratini as she asked if he could speak normally...well, yes, he could, it just took a bit more effort. He gave a smile and spoke again, this time through his mouth like a normal plush would. "Indeed I can speak using my mouth. I usually choose to speak mentally, as that way I do not have to alarm any nearby humans. That, and it also allows me to carry on conversations with individuals without the need for others to hear me." He spoke the last part from his mind, directing it to the dratini, who was close enough that he didn't have to project his mental voice loud enough for the others to here. He resumed speaking from his mouth, deciding to explain his aura-speech. "As to why I can speak without moving my mouth...Due to being a Lucario, I can sense the aura in all living things, and manipulate my own. As such, by directing or manipulating my aura, I can project my own words without using the muscles it takes to speak from my mouth. " Aaron gave the dratini a smile, and then just listened for a moment as he cataloged what was going on around him. Especially when the dratini scooted closer to him. He didn't mind, of course. By the aura coming off the umbreon it seemed that there was some negativity (perhaps sport-like feelings...?) directed at the young girl, and it would be easier for Aaron to protect her if she was closer anyway.
When they began talking to Nobody about his fur, Aaron sensed the Absol's stress level seem to rise. He flicked his ears in the disaster-type's direction, deciphering the feelings he was sensing. Apparently...the Absol had negative feelings about his fur? Taking a moment, Aaron closed his eyes, allowing his aura-sense to take over. The aura radiating from the Absol seemed negative, but it seemed that it was just, if anything, a bit of unstable emotions. Nothing too critical. Aaron was slightly concerned by the umbreon though. He seemed a bit...malevolent, if anything. Opening his eyes, Aaron said to the Absol, "Your fur is actually quite nice. And it makes sense not to be monotone." At that he waved his hand at his own multicolored form. "Evolution seems a bit complicated as a plush. Rena, aren't you going to be stuck as a dratini?" It seemed like a perfectly good question from the absol, but the Lucario wasn't sure if plush evolved or not; After all, he'd been made as a Lucario.

Rena's entire being was quickly turned by the voice coming from Aaron. It was rather shocking to finally hear what he sounded like with her wing-like ears. Soothing almost. But what he sad made perfect sense to her. "You do have a great gift as well. I see you make good use of it as well." After seeing Nobody hide from her laughter, Rena kept it to herself and only smiled back at him.
Yet Nobody's question caught the small pokemon off guard. Evolution? She had never thought about it but she knew that she really did not care for the idea. Of course her line meant a more powerful creature but was power really everything to these people?
Dropping her head, Rena gave a slow shake to answer both of them. "No. I don't think we evolve. I mean, we are stuffed right? How does stuffing become wings?" Picking her head up, she looked towards Aaron for confirmation. He appeared to know more about it at least.

It was when the Lucario brought up evolution as a plush, that that it hit him. I was never an Eevee! All he remembers is waking up and being an Umbreon, and being treated like a plush toy. Oh, how he hated being a plush, and getting thrown about. Oh, how he longed to be a real Umbreon some day! Large and slender, not tiny and stuffed. While all of this went through his head, he made no facial indication that being anything other than what he is bothered him.
Monotone. The word echoed in his mind. He took a quick gaze at all of his acquaintances, and concluded that he was probably the most 'monotone'.
"Being monotone doesn't bother me. If anything, I'd rather be fully black." My markings glow in the moonlight. My prey can see me coming. How annoying. He chose his words carefully, making as little indication as he could that anything was bothering him.

Ah, it seemed Rena had recovered from her confusion about his different speaking abilities...good good. That made things far more easy for Aaron. Looking around with his red eyes, he listened as people put in their imput on the idea of evolution.
As the topic of evolution became more confused, Aaron found the majority of the group's attention changing to him. Rena seemed to be a bit confused on the topic, which was normal, since plushies didn't grow. That would be quite unheard of. As she mentioned that she didn't think evolution was possible, Aaron felt what could have been a slight wave of shock jolt from the umbreon. As the two 'evolved' plushies, it was clear neither Aaron nor Tsukiya had any notion as to how they'd become their 'evolved' forms. Aaron had simply awoken as a Lucario. He had no memories of being a Riolu, and he was pretty sure that he simply had been a Lucario for the majority of his existence. "Well... I was never a riolu... I simply awoke in this form, as a Lucario. So, I would think that plushies cannot evolve. The only way I could see such a thing happening was if perhaps the plush was taken apart and remade with the new form. Although that sound dangerous and I would not suggest doing such a thing."

Nobody glanced at Aaron, almost forgetting he was there due to his recent silence. "It's weird, just waking up and being a plush, but I can't imagine what it must be like for any of you. With the non-evolving thing," his tail thumped a bit, this was getting depressing. The last thing he wanted was to spread the stereotype of his kind. "Mm... so, plushies, I've seen a few others around, where do you think we came from?"
Sirene Naiads
The idea of evolution appeared to be a soft spot for everyone. She was the only one there in a pre-evolved state anyway. Why should it matter to them then if she evolved? And if Aaron was right, she wouldn't want to do it anyway.
"Honestly, I don't want to evolve." She finally whispered looking around at the other three larger plushies. To become a giant snake? Was that really a dream of hers? Then again, what was her dream? Her memory stopped at waking up recently and then meeting some others.
Leaning her head to the side and scratching her head with the tip of her tail, Rena gave a soft smile. "Well wherever we came from, it appears that they don't like making two of the same. Have you seen any others like yourself?"

Aaron sensed a feeling of first some surprise at Aaron's comments, and then of depression coming off the absol. At his comment about being an evolving kind, Aaron gave a slight shrug and thought, "I have never known any different. I was born a Lucario. In a way, that makes all of us alike by the fact that we cannot evolve. It's almost as if not having an evolution at all." He gave a slight, reassuring smile to the absol. From there, the Lucario looked down and inspected his mit-like hand, staring at the carefully crafted stitches.
It seemed that Rena didn't particularly want to evolve anyway, so there was no need to continue with the evolution conversation. On to the newest idea.
Where they had come from...? That was a very deep question. But as a Lucario, he knew one thing about it. After Rena had spoken, Aaron looked up at everyone, sensing the pulsations of life they all gave off."It is a grand question as to where we came from. Perhaps a genius human scientist? I don't particularly know. But I do know something. All of the plushies I have met have aura, just as the humans I have seen have. That means that, truly, we are all alive."

Tsukiya imagined being torn limb from limb to make an 'evolved' form. His stitches being tugged carefully out, and seeing the stuffing that was usually inside of him, come out. That's disgusting. He was immediately glad he was not one of the lower evolution forms.
"I, too, was always this way, if it helps with the piercing together of evolution." I'm agreeing, again. Helping, nonetheless. Is all this interaction making me soft?
"Plushies are made. Someone must have made us." He growled at himself, and shut his mouth. Helping way too much about a topic I don't care about.
"You don't know what you're missing, Dratini." He spoke not her name, but of her kind, as an indication that they should not be too familiar with each other. Tsukiya said missing as though, she was literally missing a huge part of herself, by not wanting to become stronger.
"If there was another of myself out there, I will hunt him down." He said 'him' because the majority of Umbreons are male. He doesn't realize, nor expect to ever see a female one.

Aaron's open for some guild rp. ^^; (If that's allowed to do two at once.)
Juli~ I see, I see. ^^ *Prepares to fling Aaron at the non-existant growth thread.* (Ohwait, I have to gather his posts first though. XD;;; )
Aaron looked back at the usually malevolent umbreon as he began to speak, oddly enough agreeing with much of what the Lucario had said. Until it got to the topic of Rena's evolution. At that, Aaron felt his inner protector beginning to stir, and he slid a few inches closer to the dratini, as if that alone would be enough to ward off the negative energy that Tsukiya was releasing toward the dratini. The lucario plush looked at her and said encouragingly, "It's alright Rena. You don't have to evolve if you don't want to." The waves of power-thirst that seemed to radiate around the umbreon seemed to show that the dark-type didn't really agree with Aaron's standpoint.
Aaron looked up at the umbreon as he spoke of how he would hunt down another of his kind. Had the coversation been between just the Lucario and the Umbreon, Aaron was sure he would have growled aloud. In this group though, Aaron managed just to scowl at the dark-type, his mind managing not to hiss as he replied with slight anger, "Why would you ever hunt down one of your own kind?"
Juli~ I see, I see. ^^ *Prepares to fling Aaron at the non-existant growth thread.* (Ohwait, I have to gather his posts first though. XD;;; )

Nobody enjoyed hearing the others' views, varied views, it was different, compared to just listening to himself or eavesdropping on passing plushies. Then again, there weren't too many others, and certainly none that looked like him. No one like me, but we're all in the same boat then, I guess. We're all the same.
He couldn't help but smile at the revelation, even though they had no idea where they were or really who the plush next to them was capable of, for now they were a group. Even the umbreon who was a tad on the vicious side. "Attacking someone who looked like me? I'd be afraid of hurting myself."

Had Rena not thought better of those she had just met, she might have taken the comment to heart. Benefit of the doubt was given in her mind that he had just forgotten her name. No one could be as rude as that.
Yet Aaron seemed to take it as such.
Sliding back a little as the Lucario moved closer, she wanted to reach out an assure him that no harm was given in the statement but something kept her back. Aaron could sense auras. Had something changed that she didn't pick up?
"Acting each other would do the same thing. We could all get hurt is something happened." The answer was to all three of them as she noted what Nobody was saying.

The Lucario was questioning him. He didn't expect such a direct question, and wondered how to phrase it, so he wouldn't sound like it bothered him at all.
"Not literally." He said it in a tone that conveyed that any literal sense would just be ridiculous. "Hunt, as in find; to track down and meet. Wouldn't you be excited to meet another one of yourself?" He smirked, though not because he would be excited to meet another of his kind, at all.

Aaron sensed a pulse of happiness coming from the absol when the Lucario had spoken about how they were all the same in the sense that they didn't evolve. Perhaps...was the white disaster plush simply lonely? Well, if he was, Aaron decided that he would have to make friends with the absol at some point in time in the near future.
For some odd reason, Aaron felt a brief glow of happiness come again from the absol, a feeling that corresponded to each of the plushies nearby, even though the underlying negativity of the umbreon tainted it a bit. It seemed they were a little group. For now, at least. Aaron wouldn't have any problems with defending the smaller (he considered Rena and Nobody to be slightly smaller than himself) plushies from the umbreon if it cam down to that.
Then Rena had slid back a bit, and Aaron sensed her seem to hesitate. Of course. Aaron's actions probably wouldn't have seemed too normal for those who couldn't sense the umbreon's undercurrent of malicious-ness. He paused for a moment, then thought quietly to Rena alone, "Tsukiya has a slight malicious energy around him. It seemed to flare in your direction for a moment, but it's since calmed. I just wanted to make sure that nothing would happen to you if his harsher energies spiked again." The Lucario wasn't sure how to explain that he had this desire to protect those smaller than him, so he left his thoughts at that.
As the umbreon spoke again, the Lucario looked at him, his senses trying to uncover what feelings the umbreon was hiding. While Tsukiya spoke in a tone that made that notion of hunting sound ridiculous, Aaron wasn't so sure that what the umbreon's true feelings were. Reflecting on the past auras of the umbreon, Aaron wasn't really up for believing that the umbreon would be excited to go out and social. In answer to his response, the lucario mentally spoke, keeping his tone level and conversational, "Yes...I would be rather pleased to find another of my species...Well, perhaps words should be better phrased to avoid confusion next time."

It was the thoughts Aaron projected into her mind that caused Rena to look at Tsukiya closely. She wouldn't say anything, unsure of what would be the correct terms but something inside of her said that Aaron had to be wrong. Why would he want to hurt anyone? Why the energy directed at her?
A mistake... She thought unsure if Aaron could hear her or not.
"I'm sure that if there was another, it would show up here sooner or later. It seems plushes of all species are coming here for some reason or another." Rena's tail swept out towards the room at the others who had not been part of their conversation.

Aaron felt some kind of skeptical innocence radiate from the dratini plushie. 'I probably seem like I'm crazy...' Aaron thought to himself as he recognized the other plush's feelings. Aaron mentally frowned and wondered if the dratini recognized that some creatures could be malicous. Of course, all of the plushs were technically newborns...Aaron felt relief that he'd been born with such a sound mind that could recognize threats. Aaron couldn't hear the girl's thoughts, though, and wasn't sure how she felt at his remark.
As the dratini spoke again, though, Aaron looked around. Seeing so many new plushes in the distances, he closed his eyes and opened his senses to the aura all around him. Quickly scanning by most of the plushes, Aaron recognized that each was full of life. He opened his eyes and looked back at their small group. "Indeed. It seems that we will soon see who's coming and if there are any duplicates." Meeting another Lucario would be interesting...although it slightly alarmed Aaron to think of another who could sense auras...did everyon feel like that at the idea of someone being able to sense their feelings?

"Duplicates?" Rena echoed as she quickly turned back and faced Aaron. Is that how he thought of the idea of another? A copy to an original. The thought set her on edge a bit more as she just watched him for a moment.
Finally shaking her head, Rena spoke calmly. "Aaron, I know you didn't mean it so but when you say that, it sounds like you are placing yourself above any others who might come later. Do you really see yourself above everyone else?"

Aaron's ears perked up as the dratini spoke again, saying one word. The word Aaron had just previously used to describe more plushes, back when he had been lost in his own thoughts. A mild wave of what seemed like offense came from the dratini, and it slightly alarmed Aaron. Had something he said struck her wrong?
Ahh! That was what had appeared to be the problem for Rena. Aaron looked at the dratini, his eyes widening a bit to hear her reaction. He gave a quick shake of his head, and thought aloud, a bit surprised, "What? Of course not! I had actually been a bit lost in my own thoughts when I spoke... I was wondering how it would be to meet another Lucario, how it would feel to hear another speak from their mind as I do. I hadn't really been thinking when I had responded so casually. We are all equal after all...all cut from the same cloth, if you will." Aaron gave a light shake of his head, hoping that his explaination could help the dratini see what he meant. "It seems that I must be the one who pays attention to how I phrase things now."

Tsukiya listened to the Lucario defend his previous statement, in earnest interest. That's what you say, but I wonder, if it's what you'll do.
"Seems like we all do."
Tsukiya couldn't help, but feel slightly triumphant that it was the Lucario who was now having to explain his words, as he had to earlier. It might not have been for the same reason, but the concept was the same.
He then thought about the previous comment that the one known as Rena made about all the plushies coming together, and what this could mean. It was odd, to say the slightest. Why now, and for what purpose? What kind of person would create plushies, of all things. He silently cursed his plush body, then realized that he wasn't paying attention to the group anymore.
"What do plushies, like ourselves, do? Sitting around is lame." He was indicating what plushies' purpose was, whether there will be anything more than cloth, stuffed with fluff. He hated being so fluffy inside, literally. He wanted something more.
