Totoro had heard about an odd sight that was a flock of sheep traveling through the snowy areas of the city. No one seemed to know where they came from or where they were going. But it lead the chibi to start looking for the sheep as he wanted to meet them.
He'd seen sheep in vidoes and at the petting zoos when they occasionally came by but he hadn't seen sheep that sounded like they were floofy white clouds. He'd done some basic research on what he could bring them to eat just to make sure he wasn't giving them some sort of food they couldn't eat and he'd settled on carrot sticks.
He had stopped and stood up on a park bench looking for the weird lumpy mounds people spoke about the sheep coming from as he paused looking around thinking he also felt another senshi nearby. He honestly thought though that one of the parks might be the best place to be able to see the sheeps since they were wide open and sometimes had less traffic in the winter.
Counting Sheep (12) : All around the city, odd, lumpy mounds of snow have begun appearing--harmless at first glance, until one of them suddenly shifts, shakes itself off, and lets out a loud bleat. A large flock of incredibly fluffy, snow-covered sheep has wandered into town from who-knows-where. Their dense white wool blends perfectly into the winter landscape, and snow clings easily to them. They seem perfectly content in the cold and go about their business without a care, but it’s still startling to watch what looks like a miniature snowdrift suddenly get up and trot away. They're typically not hostile, but they will attempt to flee and avoid capture. They seem good natured--adorable, warm, and only occasionally a little chaotic.

Despite the lack of frogs in the parks in the winter, Bacchus had found something almost as entertaining in the birds who apparently frequented these places. He found the red ones in (Tempesti had called them “cardinals”) particularly funny as they hopped around and pecked at the snow. He’d even seen one have an extended full-blown argument with its own reflection in a chilly pond before he’d given up on finding winter frogs. He’d decided to ignore the relatability of that situation in favor of enjoying its absurdity.
It was the pursuit of bird-related amusement that had drawn him to this park, but the presence of another Order energy signature, one not quite like the ones he’d sensed before had piqued his curiosity, so naturally he followed it.
The deep space senshi chuckled at the sight of a young boy standing upon one of the benches that dotted the place. For a moment he was reminded of himself not long after his own awakening. If the kid was lucky he’d be spared everything that came after.
“Hey! Anything interesting going on around here?”
He greeted the boy with a friendly wave as he approached.
Totoro paused and looked towards the voice, unaware that the other was looking for frogs. Which would've had the chibi asking questions. There was a smile, "OH, so people have seen sheep like the ground just kind of starts moving and there's a bunch of sheep moving."
He said as he looked back towards the open field of the park, "I was hoping this was the best place to maybe find them since they're suppose to look like fluffy snow drifts until they move. I even brought some carrots since I did some research on them."
The Raccoon clad chibi looked back towards the deep space senshi, "I'm Totoro!" He added as he hopped off the bench and offered a fist bump to the other.

“Sheep. Those are the round fluffy things, right?” A few months on Earth had proven inadequate for Bacchus to become familiar with the local fauna, as much as he enjoyed meeting the ones he had. He hadn’t heard anything about sheep living in snow though, that could be interesting.
“That’s weird, are there a lot of things like that here?” That definitely sounded more entertaining in general than the animals who just looked like animals. Nothing wrong with those, frogs were like that, but this sounded like a lot of fun.
“Bacchus,” He smiled at the unfamiliar chibi as he tried to push back the memories of his own experiences as a ne’er-do-well child with supernatural power. No need to dwell on the good things he could never reclaim. “I like your fuku.” He looked at the kid’s outstretched hand, remembering that he was not in fact supposed to pat the top like he had the last time a human had tried that gesture with him before meeting the boy’s knuckles with his own. “No luck so far, huh?”
Totoro nodded when Bacchus asked if sheep were round fluffy things, "Yeah! Some of them look really round and fluffy!" He was excited speaking about them, "Some of them are still fluffy but they're hairy instead of woolly!"
There was a pause when he thought about the question, "Well there's not always animals like this. I wonder where they came from but there's different animals everywhere!"
There was a grin when Bacchus said he liked the fuku, "Thank you, I think it's fun! My sphere is Raccoons so it's very fitting."
He shook his head though, "Yeah no luck right now, but if you want we could go walk and see if we run into any!"

“Huh, I guess I haven’t seen the hairy ones yet. I’m still getting used to the animals here.” Bacchus decided to omit the fact that he was still getting used to having any animals around. Or anything alive and not…no. Not the time for that. Now… or ever if he was being honest with himself. No point in dwelling on what was dead and dusty when there were all kinds of weird things to discover here and this little raccoon senshi at least had an idea of where to find them.
The kid definitely didn’t deserve to be stuck in this. At least there was more than one senshi on Earth to figure this s**t out. There were a ton of Chaos assholes too, but that was something to worry about another day. Or never. Probably never. ******** Chaos.
At least they could look for something more interesting.
“Let’s look for those sheep, if you spot any other animals on the way point them out.”
Totoro grinned, "I've seen pictures of them I think they might have some at a petting zoo."
He couldn't quite remember but there was a pause while he thought, "Okay~! Yes lets look for them!"
He nodded in agreement when the other mentioned pointing out any other animals he saw too "Of course! This is going to be fun!" Totoro grinned, "Lets head this way~! The snow drifts look promising."
