If you see a bear. That's mine.

"Come back here!"

Yuna was running down the hall after a brown ball of fuzz running in front of her. She had changed back into her gunner outfit after the mishap. It was much easier to chase after the young bear in short shorts than it was in a floor length dress. Her feet lightly kissed the ground as she flew forward her eyes locked on the bounding bear.

She hoped that someone would stop him. He wasn't a bad little bear and he usually listened to her but this time he had gotten a little to excited. She could hear his claws click on the hard floor and she really hopes whomever he runs into likes heavy fuzzy creatures licking their faces.

"Daigoro!" Calling it's name did nothing and Yuna's heart sank as her bear turned into the lounge.

There was a commotion seconds after the creature ran into Ten Forward. When Yuna finally entered she would find chairs and a table overturned, and the canine... ursine... thing pinned to the ground by a snarling Wraith. At least the ball of fur didn't appear aggressive, but it was squirming and wriggling to get free, and was rather hard to keep hold of.

"What is this?" Though Todd seemed more bewildered than anything else, he didn't look all too pleased. The thing had knocked over his dinner.

[whereishe]

Daigoro squirmed frantically, confused at the stranger holding him down. Yuna quickly walked up to the bear placing a hand on it's head to calm him. He grunted and then whined softly squirming so that it could look up at its disgruntled trainer.

Yuna, however, was looking at Todd. "It's a bear. I'm so sorry. Are you okay?" As she spoke a soothing hand moved over the bear and it began to calm.

She noted the mess in the area and the spilled food. She was definitely getting in trouble for this. Perhaps summoning the young bear had been a mistake.

[theycallmetodd]

"Yes, I'm fine." Of course he was. It would take more than a critter such as this to cause him any lasting harm. But, he did sound rather irritated, and he did not give up his iron grip on the thing until it had calmed down significantly.

"This thing is yours?" If it was, she owed him dinner.

[whereishe]

Yuna smiled nervously moving so that she could see the bears face. It was grunting as her palms cupped its cheeks.

"Um.. yes. Sorry if he caused you any trouble. I summoned him and hadn't expected.." She looked up at Todd and smile. "Sorry. Guide." She was okay with replacing his dinner.

"Thank you for stopping him."

[theycallmetodd]

Having let go of the animal he sat back in a crouch, breathing a sigh before standing up. "This will not be a regular occurrence, I trust." Moving to turn the table back right side up, it was then that he discovered that a seam at the shoulder of his coat had torn during the scuffle. This just kept on getting better and better. Though, admittedly, the coat was getting old and he had been considering replacing it.

[whereishe]

Daigoro began to lick Yuna's hand now that he was caught it didn't seem that he was bent on more destruction. "No, it won't." For a moment she felt like she was being scolded by Kimahri with the way he spoke.

Her gaze flicked over to his torn coat and then to the table. "It's ripped." The bear was now nuzzling Yuna's legs as she stood. "I can fix that if you want." It would be a small I'm sorry considering the trouble she has caused.

[theycallmetodd]

He was about to decline, but, a coat was a coat, and he didn't know if he might find a suitable one on board. "That would be appreciated, thank you," he said, accepting her offer as he bent down to pick up and set the chairs straight, eying the bear. Curious creature.

Ahim had been enjoying the view of the stars over some tea. But all at once she was nearly bowled out of her seat. She only barely braced herself in time to keep from being dumped unceremoniously onto the floor. Ahim took it quite well, all considered. She laughed while it licked her face, even if it caught her by surprise. "Oh my, aren't you cute?"

[whereishe]

Yuna came running up spotting the bear as it assaulted the girl with kisses. She breathed out a sigh of relief knowing that he hadn't intended to hurt anyone. She knew she had trained him well but then she's never summoned him in space. Her toes lightly kissed the ground with each step as she moved towards the pair.

"Sorry about that." Her smile was awkward as she looked down at the girl and the bear. "Daigoro." She spoke the name softly and the bear stopped looking up at her as if he had done nothing wrong. Despite the claws and sharp teeth he was too cute to stay mad at and he hadn't really don't anything wrong.

Yuna held out a hand to Ahim. "Need help up?"

As is his poor habit to do so, Alec is leaning back in his chair with his feet on the table scribbling something in the air. This leaves him a perfect target to small barreling bears to bump into and cause him to lose his balance. He falls to the floor with an undignified thump, bump and yelp.

Which leads to an investigation on the bear's part of the newly fallen Alec.

[whereishe]

Yuna comes running up to Alec finding him sitting on the ground with the fuzzy bear snuffing at his side. Her fingers covered her lips as the bears long claws gently tugged at his side

"I'm sorry! Daigoro" The bear cub looked up at Yuna and then it's head dropped as if it was doing something wrong. She really didn't know what happened but it looked pretty incriminating for the little bear.

[element_wizard]

"And hello to you too..." Alec said, pushing himself up onto his elbows. He looked a bit dazed, but other than that fine.

[whereishe]

The young bear took the cue and pounced on Alec's belly looking up at Yuna like he had caught his target. Her palm pressed against her forehead as she looked down at the pair. "I'm so sorry."

"Daigoro, get off of him!" The bear wagged his little tail and bared his teeth before walking across Alec to stand by Yuna's legs. She held out her hand for Alec. "Are you okay?"

[element_wizard]

"I'm fine. I've had worse things happen to me." Still, he took her proffered hand. "I think I just bumped my head when I fell over."

[whereishe]

Yuna pulled him to his feet feeling the bear nuzzle against her caffs and then his. She cast a glare towards the bear before moving to lift his seat from the ground.

"I didn't expect him to run off like that." She didn't know what summoning a bear in space would have done.

[never_felt_better]

What the—?!

"WHOA," John yells, the whites of his eyes flashing when he sees the bear bounding toward him. Man, why do they always gotta be bounding toward him?

He takes a step to the left, then to the right, like a scared critter not knowing which way to run from a car, and then all but turns in a circle and trips over his own two feet. "Fnuh!"

He rolls over just in time to get a faceful of bear slobber. "Blegh, buy a guy dinner first! Geeze, when was the last time you had a tic tac?!"

[whereishe]

Yuna came running after the bear and had to forcibly stifle a laugh. It looked a little ridiculous with the man on the ground and Daigoro leaning over him. The bears tail waged enthusiastically so at least he wasn't going to attack.

Her palm reached out and pulled the bear back looking down at John with an awkward smile. "Sorry about that. Are you okay?"

It took a few more long seconds to convince Daigoro that sitting on the man wasn't a good place to rest.

Yuna laughed softly. "I can buy you dinner if you want." Though it would be replicated and technically Yuna wouldn't be paying for it.

[never_felt_better]

He starts wiping at his face, maybe a little more aggressively than what's needed but... yuck. And did he mention blegh?

"Yeah, yeah I'm g-ah," he gasps when he catches a paw in one of the more sensitive areas of his anatomy, curling up into himself. Yeah, thanks for not letting the bear sit on him. Really. He owes you one. "Great."

The word comes out in a squeak, and then a grunt as he rolls onto his hands and knees. You got this, John. Don't let them see you cry. "Since when are there bears in space, anyway? Is that a dumb question? I'm on the starship Enterprise with a Bond villain who can play dice with the universe, I think that's a dumb question."

Somebody remind him to thank Q later.

[whereishe]

She knew she shouldn't be laughing, he was in pain though it was obvious that he wasn't going to have any permanent damage. Yuna's hand covered her mouth as the large bear watched the man curiously. He didn't know what he had did wrong.

"I'm sorry. I summoned him here." Yuna hadn't thought that he would get excited and go bounding off. He needed more training.

She stepped forward and then sank to her knees so she could look at the man who Daigoro almost castrated. She lightly placed her hand on his shoulder tilting her head sideways so she could look at him.

"I think you'll be fine and yeah, that is sort of a dumb question." It sounded awkward when she said the word dumb as if it wasn't in her usual vocabulary.

[never_felt_better]

It's okay, Yuna. If you knew how many people laughed at John on a daily basis, you wouldn't feel nearly as bad. Besides, he sorta has this thing for collecting friends with bad attitudes.

"Hey, Houdini, man in pain here," he grumbles, pushing himself up until he's resting back on his heels. "You can summon bears?!"

Okay, so some of his dull confusion melts away when she gets down on his level and looks at him like that, hand on his shoulder. He glances at the hand and then back at Yuna before breathing a laugh. "Thanks for the vote of confidence. What's your name? And, uh, the name of your friend over there? Yeah, that's right, I'm talking to you, Bruiser."

If John can never have cubs again he's blaming you.

[whereishe]

If she knew how many laughed at John she might end up feeling a little bit worse. Though he looked like the sort who laughed with people. There needed to be more people like that.

"Yeah. His name is Daigoro. His first owner was a warrior named Yojimbo." She smiled. "I'm Yuna."

She pulled her hand away knowing that he was okay and took hold of the energetic bear. With Yuna holding on to him he didn't seem in a rush to go anywhere. He also didn't seem very concerned about John. The bear yawned when John addressed him and Yuna laughed lightly at the reaction. She hadn't seen Daigoro act like this around someone and she found it interesting.

Of course he hadn't been around a lot of people outside of combat.

The bear and Bucky collide in a screech of metal. When the bear hits him, Bucky's metal hand goes into the floor until his momentum slows. Intense blue eyes meet the bear's and he rests his free hand on the scruff of his neck, intent on keeping it in place until it's owner catches up.

"This is a pet?" he queries when Yuna catches up.

[whereishe]

Yuna ran up smiling nervously. "Yeah." She had wished that he hadn't gone running off but really it's her own fault for summoning him while she was on a spaceship.

"I didn't mean for him to run off. Sorry about that." Yuna stepped forward taking Daigoro by the scruff of fur at the neck so that Bucky didn't have to hold him. "He usually doesn't run off."

[bestpal]

Bucky steps back and his posture relaxes back into something much less intimidating. "He is strong," he comments. "Do you keep him in the room? I haven't seen him." A bear he would remember. His lips quirk up.

"He is big for a pet."

[whereishe]

"Ah, yeah. He is." Yuna's hand ran over his rush with a little bit of a sheepish smile. "I summoned him here. I wanted to know if I could but I might send him home." As sad as it would make her to see him go.

She looked up at Bucky with a wide smile. "I don't think bears are meant to be on spaceships."
