Having Fun (Kids In Critic's Army)

[Littlefoot]

(ooc: March 12th. Kids in Critic's Army. Figured Bambi reunited with Flower in his intro thread or off screen.)

Flower walked out nervously. He had liked Dean actually but the guy had decided to just be friends instead agreeing with Sam that taking a skunk as a pet on the road wouldn't work out. Especially as they were from different worlds. So here he was on the porch a few days later as Dean and Sam had gone with Maleficent and Diablo to Critic's house to help out in the war. They hadn't wanted to just sit in the sidelines. Although Dean did promise to visit soon but for now he was alone. He'd run into Bambi before but they hadn't really had much time to chat and hang out. He hoped Bambi was free to play.

Tender Heart walked out next grinning. He saw the skunk and walked over to him.

"Hello. I'm Tender Heart. You're one of the newer recruits right?" asked Tender Heart.

XXXX

Littlefoot walked out next. Cera and Deathcry had both been busy lately so he had spent most of his time with his new friends like Bambi, Kiara, and the puppies. He walked out seeing Tender Heart talking to a skunk. He'd seen him around but hadn't got a chance to say hello yet. He walked over to them with a grin.

"Hello. I'm Littlefoot." said Littlefoot.

XXXX

Freckles arrived out next walking just behind Littlefoot. She saw Flower and was nervous. She didn't want to be sprayed. She'd remembered one of her siblings getting sprayed on the farm once and they'd ended up smelling for days and had to be isolated from the rest of them until the smell went away. She couldn't remember which one at the moment but after that all of them had stayed away from skunks. But she wanted to be friendly and the skunk had joined their side after all. So she walked up to them nervously.

"Hello. I'm Freckles." said Freckles.

XXXX

Gene flew out as well seeing the group of animal kids. There seemed to be more animal kids than humans children here and he was fine with that. Being an animal himself. He hoped he could hang out with them. He grinned flying out and landing next to the group.

"Hi. I'm Gene. Welcome." said Gene.

[Bambi]

Bambi was so happy to have one of his friends back so he was determined to hang out with the skunk as much as possible now that he was here in Roses' house. Quickly he went outside only to figure out his friend was met by many of the other children and he went over. He went over and responded "Hey Flower. I guess you met the others. But there are more kids that are here. Anyway, guys this is one of my buddies flower" He turned to flower again and asked "Hey, we haven't talked much yet, you wanna play or something?" He turned to the others "I think we should have fun right?"

Darla meanwhile came out slightly after Freckles did, and not long after her there was Pepper. The two puppies with freckles were like peas in a pod and it was hard to not want to hang out with freckles knowing she could get hurt anytime. Darla looked around and immediately frowned at the sight of Flower, knowing very well what the creature could do, and she didn't want to get sprayed either. Despite that she got rid of her frown seeing many of the other children being polite and nice about it. Darla, after Bambi say the skunk's name, nervously responded "Hi. I'm Darla. It's nice to meet you Flower"

Pepper, unlike her two sisters, was actually interested in the skunk's arrival. She smiled very quickly and went over to Flower responding "I'm Pepper! It's nice to meet you new guy!" She turned to the others and responded "Hey if we were still able to fight, we could use the new guy's spray to take them down and make them smell for months!" She laughed then turned to see the skunk confused "Just joking dude. We don't have to do that. I was trying to be funny" She then saw Bambi introduce his name and responded with a confused look "Flower? That's a weird name. I would think he'd be named stripes or something like that?" She then heard Bambi suggest playing and she wagged her tail.

Kiara, like Pepper, was interested in the skunk but was far less enthusiastic as Pepper seemed to be. She just was unimpressed with flower and treated the skunk as if he was just what he was, the new member of the group. Kiara smiled regardless and responded "Heya flower. Name's Kiara. Welcome to the group" She turned to hear Bambi suggest playing and she responded quickly "No tag. Anything but tag. Let's do something creative today"
XXXX

Lilo was also quick to go to the group of children and tenderheart. She saw Flower and instantly was on edge, she knew the skunk's abilities and she recalled a time when she was very little of a attack from a skunk due to her poking one. She went near Gene but responded off-edgedly "Hiya. Who's the new guy?" She turned to see Bambi speak that it was a friend of his named flower and she was confused with the name already. What kind of skunk would be named flower? They smelled nothing like that. Nevertheless she responded with a small smile "Hi flower. I'm Lilo"

[Deleted]

"I'm with Kiara on this, anything but tag. Maybe we could play Hide and Seek or something". Kovu said his game was not very "creative" either, but he wasn't very good with coming up with group games.

"I agree, it is nice to come up with other games to play" Dash said. Even though she loved Tag, mostly because she was awesome at it. She had never GOTTEN tagged. She used her speed to Outrun all the animals that were it, and when that didn't work she would use her flying abilities to get to a High place until the person, animal just gave up and ran after someone else.

And when she was declared "It" she of course would be quick to tag one of her friends.

"Hi, Flower" Cadpig said walking over to Flower. She had remembered that she'd only get sprayed if Flower was scared so Cadpig tried to be as least scary as she could.

[Littlefoot]

Flower grinned seeing so many new friends and Littlefoot. He smiled at everyone as they introduced themselves toh im.

"Hello. Wow so many new friends. It was just Bambi, Thumper, and me back home." said Flower.

He smiled sadly missing Thumper. He hoped his friend was ok without both him and Bambi. The poor guy now had more free time to play with his sisters. Flower was grateful he was an only child. He paused and grinned glancing at everyone with a grin. He paused as they mentioned his spray and looked sad.

"I don't really like spraying. It just smells bad and makes everyone mad at me. Or run away from me." said Flower.

He paused glancing at everyone.

"Not many good places to hide really. And there's so many of us we'd be found too quickly. Maybe we should play something else." said Flower.

Flower paused blushing as Penny said that's a weird name.

"Well it's not my real name. It's Bambi's nickname for me. Being called after something as nice as a flower felt like a compliment. It's a lot nicer than my real name anyway." said Flower.

XXXX

Littlefoot grinned glad to meet Bambi's new friend.

"Kiara, Kovu, and Flower are right. Tag's out. So is hide and seek. What else could we play?" said Littlefoot.

He paused trying to think. They'd already shared stories another day. While that was fun he didn't want to do the same thing again or that would get boring like tag had become.

"Hmm. Maybe we could play follow the leader in two groups. Although we should make sure the things we do we let sure everyone can do it. And we take turns. Like maybe we each do a few things then someone else is leader. This way we all have several chances to be a leader and no one's the leader for too long." said Littlefoot.

XXXX

Tender Heart paused with a grin.

"That actually sounds like fun. But how do we decide who goes first?" asked Tender Heart.

XXXX

Freckles grinned liking the idea

"Follow the leader sounds great Littlefoot." said Freckles.

She paused as Tender Heart asked how did they decide who goes first.

"I'm not sure. It's not like we can draw straws. We don't really have hands. I don't mind not going first though." said Freckles.

XXXX

Gene grinned liking the idea as well.

"Follow the leader sounds great. And I don't care about going first either. But we should figure out how who goes first. Maybe the people who want to go first could do a competition? Like racing or something?" said Gene.

[Bambi]

"Yeah. I miss Thumper. And Faline" Bambi said sadly before shaking his head. He was going to have fun today if it killed him. He then turned to the others slightly annoyed with their anxious behavior "What flower said. He can control his spraying far more than a lot of skunks I know. Trust him. He's really nice. Please. He's really a great person" He sighed as pepper said that flower was a weird name, and flower said it was bambi's idea. "Yeah, I was a weird toddler ok guys? I was learning words and.. I mixed them up. Sorry" He then listened to the idea of follow the leader and he nodded happily "Sounds great!"
XXXXX

Lilo saw that they were hurting Flower's feelings therefore hurting Bambi's feelings "Sorry. We didn't mean to be judgemental. It's just skunks normally aren't nice like you flower. Feel free to play with us! I didn't mean to be rude" She then smiled at Bambi and flower's explaination of the name "Awww. I think it's nice. Super cute" She then nodded at the idea of follow the leader and littlefoot's way of playing it "Sounds like a great idea littlefoot" She pondered "I have no problem waiting my turn. Maybe you could go first littlefoot since it was your idea"
XXXX

Kovu arriving made things all the better as did Rainbow Dash's arrival. She immediately went to the two and smiled a hello before listening to the whole flower discussion before littlefoot's idea. "Finally! Something fun and creative" She then heard the debate about follow the leader and for once, she didn't want to go first, she responded "Hey, let fearless leader go first. I'm fine with going second or third. Besides, it was his idea"
XXXX

"Oh. That's super adorable. You guys must be so close" Pepper responded at her question of his name being answered. She then perked up at follow the leader "Ooooh. Sounds super, duper, ooper fun! Let littlefoot go first guys!" She then responded confused "A debate on being first sounds easy. Most of us said littlefoot can go first. I got dibs on being second though!" She laughed cheerfully
XXXX

"Sorry flower. We're just not used to skunks but if it helps, you're welcome here and we like you though" Darla said quickly, to assure Flower that they all liked him regardless. She smiled happily as Cadpig showed up and listened to both freckles and pepper like littlefoot's idea but really she did too. The idea sounded really fun "Sounds great littlefoot!" She then listened to the majority of children say littlefoot could go first since it was his idea "I agree. Then pepper could go second, kiara can go third, the rest of us we can figure out as we go along!" She suggested already enjoying the day.
