Tuka, still dazed and barely half awake, was grinning blissfully as a soft warm expanse washed over him. The young man was dreaming, floating amongst the clouds and resting on one like a pillow. The bright sun warmed him up, and he could even hear the wind flowing past his ears, it felt like he was in literal heaven. The cloud below him pressed against his back and squeezed around him, as if hugging him all over, prompting a comforting whimper to escape his lips. Sinking deeper and deeper, the cloud continued wrapping around Tuka as laying on a bean bag. Tempted to close his eyes, Tuka relaxed as the cloud continued to take him into its embrace. Taking a deep sigh as the puffy cloud enveloped him completely. Everything around him became a white fluffy expanse, shifting his body inside the soft cloudy interior, feeling it rub against his skin like soft silk. Tuka felt like he was inside a giant pillow, feeling so warm and fuzzy as the surrounding sea of fluff rubbed against him. It was a heavenly massage that he could have only dreamed of. But then, he realized the cloud started getting darker and darker, as if the light was fading from his surroundings. “Is the sun going down? Is a storm coming?” he thought himself, his surroundings slowly turning from gray to pitch black. "I have to get out of here!” Afraid that he could end up in the middle of the storm, he tried squirming his way out of the cloud, but he found that he could barely move.

Any movement he made would be absorbed by his surroundings, like being enveloped in soft foam, it barely felt like a cloud anymore. “I can't get out of this cloud! How did I get into this mess?” he ceased his squirming, taking a second think about where he was. “Wait a minute… how did I get here?” Settling down, he remembered how the snuggly cobra had caught him, wrapping him up and gently cuddling him until he'd fallen into a dazed half-sleep. Calmly examining his environment, his common sense returned to him, realizing that he wasn't actually inside a cloud, but trapped in a giant pillow of some kind. “Did the snake eat me?!?” he thought. Once again he began squirming frantically, trying to find an opening of some kind to escape. “Hey! Let me out!” he demanded, but was met with no response. With that, he continued trying to squirm free but still to no avail. Tuka couldn't even tell what was up or down, his spatial awareness limited to only the soft plush pressing against him. It almost felt like he was spinning, his orientation changing with every second. For all he knew he could still be half-asleep, coiled up in the cobra’s soft tail, either way… he was trapped. Seeing how hopeless his situation was, Tuka’s stopped struggling, allowing the soft expanse of the surrounding plush to take him wherever it was bringing him.

But then, he felt a sudden jolt in his orientation, as the inside of his prison wobbled around like pudding. Once he got his bearings back, he realized his surroundings had come to a complete stop, and was no longer moving. Then, something grabbed onto his right arm, feeling several large digits getting a firm but squishy grip on him. With a gentle tug, Tuka could feel his entire body being pulled through the plushy surroundings as soft cotton glided against his skin. It was a tight squeeze, but it felt surprisingly pleasant. Finally, he was yanked out of the strange area, blinded by the bright stadium lights as he was taken in a bridal carry by two large soft arms. When his eyes finally adjusted to the bright light, Tuka realized that he was being held by a cute sporty-looking anthropomorphic plush bunny. With a button nose only slightly elongated from her bunny-like face, she had light brown cotton fabric like milk chocolate, with a silky lighter tone of color from her neck down. Long fluffy ears drooped down behind her slightly, and she wore what looked like an athletic nylon sports bra. The plush was tall, coupled with her cute face, she was quite a stunning-looking bunny woman. "I finally found you.” she said with a satisfied tone in her cute voice, bringing Tuka closer to her face.

Though a bit unsteady from his experience in the ball, Tuka’s eye’s found themselves drawn to the athletic-looking bunny. Not only did Tuka find her cute, but there was something familiar about her. The bunny's smile was confident and attractive, mischievous but alluring, and strangely compelling. Something about her just kept him admiring her. Shaking off his dizziness, he looked at his surroundings, finding himself on another roof next to a large plush ball. Not knowing how he got there, he looked back at the sporty bunny who was still holding him up from under his arms. “What... happened to me?” Tuka asked. The bunny let out a proud chuckle with an accomplished grin. “You were snatched up by one of these giant bouncing plushes." she explained. “Apparently they were made to give us a challenge by snatching humans away.” Leaning in closer, she touched her nose against his in a flirty manner. “Good thing I got to you in time, I’ve had my eye on you for far too long to let you slip away.” she whispered, fluttering her eyelashes at him.

Tuka's chest grew warm and fuzzy, as her flirty tendency towards him gave him butterflies, his cheeks getting rosy at the sight of her. Strangely, the young man didn't mind the way she held him, he didn't even feel like running away as he did with the other plushes. It was like her very presence calmed him, as if he had some instinctual form of trust for the bunny. “You know me?” Tuka asked. The bunny placed him down on the plushy rooftop, his feet sinking into the surface before finding his balance. Now that he was on his feet, he realized that she was almost a foot taller than him, Tuka had to look up at her just to make eye contact. "I could never forget you Tuka, I see you pass my window everyday.” she said bending down to his level. The young man's eyes slowly widened as he thought back to the hobby shop he would always walk past by. The plush bunny looked remarkably like the toy he saw in the window. The color scheme, her sporty-looking outfit, ears, and even eyes reminded him of it. Interrupting his thoughts, the plush put her hands on his cheeks and teasingly gave his face a smoosh. “So you do remember me.” she said looking him in the eyes.

Though it took him a few moments to put it together, he now realized that the plush in the shop and the one and the same. “Now tell me, why didn’t you buy me?” she asked curiously. “B-Buy?” he asked. “I've been on that shelf for as long as I can remember, I was hand-sewn together and put up for sale, but nobody bought me.” she said, a small hint of sadness in her voice. "Eventually, I was placed in the window for display, ever since then I've been watching other toys being taken home by happy children and hobbyists, but no one ever gave me a second look… Until you started walking by.” Suddenly, she leaned closer to him, surprising him as he tripped backward, sinking memory foam surface like a soft mattress. Before he could get back up, the bunny crawled over him on her hands and knees, looming above him with a smug but alluring grin. "I’ve been watching you, every single day for the past few months you'd always turn your head in my direction, even if only for a moment to look at me. You were the only one to consistently acknowledged my presence.” she said, stroking the back of her hand against his cheek. Tuka’s heart began beating faster and faster, unable to resist the sporty bunny’s seductive teasing like he did the rest of the plushes.

The way she loomed over him, with the addition of her gentle demeanor and attractive personality, the bunny seemed more attractive and alluring than the other plushes he met. "I've seen the look on people's faces when they want something. You had that look on your face whenever you saw me.” Leaning in closer, she looked him straight in the eye. “Were you embarrassed at the thought of walking out of that shop with a stuffed bunny?” she asked. Tuka looked away for a moment, unable to look her in the eye. The human was just too ashamed to answer, he wanted to buy that plush for so long, but couldn't muster the courage to admit it. And now facing the plush as a person made it even more difficult to confess. With that, she gently placed her hand back on his cheek and drew his attention back to her. “Well… What about now?" she asked. Tuka looked back at her adorable alluring face, losing himself in her eyes once again. "I'm may be a plush, I can’t change that. But would you be embarrassed about being around me as I am now?”

Taking a nervous swallow, Tuka finally found himself able to respond. “I wasn’t… Embarrassed…” he stuttered, turning his head to the side again for a brief moment. “Well… I was, but not of you.” Taking a moment to reflect, he looked back into the eyes of the bunny, his cheeks still rosy from being so close to the adorable plush. “It's just, being a boy, and walking into a toy store asking to buy something cute…” Before he could finish, the bunny let out a soft squeal under her breath, her smile curling up mischievously as eyes squinted at him. “Ohhhhh?” she giggled, her smile now rather smug. "I get it now.” Wrapping her arms around him, the bunny sat back up and pulled him against her soft chest, nuzzling his head underneath her chin. “You were just nervous.” she cooed, one hand wrapped around his back, and the other stroking the top of his head like he was a pet.

Tuka was blushing ear to ear while the bunny gently pressed him against her pillowy body, his face practically sinking into her soft chest as if she was a stuffed mochi cushion. Her body felt pleasantly warm, while still maintaining the consistency of soft flexible cotton. The fabric of her sports bra also stretched to accommodate his head as she snuggled him into her pillowy cleavage, combined with her soft fabric skin felt incredibly comfortable against his face. No one had ever held him like this, much less a flirty living pillow, it was a completely new feeling for him. Granted, he had found himself in the coils of a clingy snake minutes before, but this felt much more comfortable, and calming. “It’s ok to be nervous, I understand.” she said with a soothing coo in her voice. Not knowing how to react he simply surrendered himself to her. With that, Tuka allowed his head to rest against her, nuzzling into the soft fabric of her spandex top. Rewarding his surrender, she squeezed him even tighter, pulling him closer into her comforting embrace.

“So, would mind if I took you home instead?” she proposed, nuzzling her chin against the top of his head. “Eh!” Tuka opened his eyes, her suggestion “Take me where?” he asked curiously. “Well since I caught you, it's only fair that I get to take the next step.” she teased. Before he could respond, the bunny scooped his legs up into her arms, allowing her to cradle him like a princess. Tuka let out a nervous “Eep!” comfortably embraced in the arms of the plush. “What are you doing?” Tuka asked. The bunny began walking to the edge of the roof, giving Tuka a triumphant smile. “Well, I’m not going to leave you here and let someone else take you. We're going to the checkpoint where I can claim you as my prize. ❤️” she teased. "W-wait!” Tuka protested nervously. With that, she leaned in closer to his face, giving him a flirty grin as she fluttered her eyelashes. “Now now… I went through so much trouble to get into this competition so I could finally meet you like I am now, so don't be fussy.” she cooed dominantly.

Suddenly, she hopped off of the roof, flinging herself and Tuka into the air with her powerful legs. “Woah!” Tuka gasped. The bunny practically flew in the air with her captured human, until she landed on another roof two houses away. The young man had so many questions, but the plush bunny wasted no time running to the other side of the roof, picking up momentum for the next jump. "I watched you walk away so many times through the glass window! And I carelessly yet let you allude to me when this competition started!” she shouted, jumping back into the air. “Now that we're finally together, I won't let you leave my arms!” she smiled looking down at her precious human. Tuka looked back at her, sparking a cozy feeling in his chest, making him feel calm and welcomed. And in that moment the reality really hit him: The bunny that he had wanted for so long, was now carrying him away from the games from which he thought there was no escape. Tuka was so happy, perhaps all this time, he was waiting for her to take him home since he could never muster the courage himself.

But then, Tuka was snapped out of his blissful state of mind when he saw one of the giant plush balls bouncing toward them mid-jump. It was coming in from the bunny's blind spot on her right, while she was preoccupied looking at him. Before he could warn her, the giant plush ball smacked into them, knocking Tuka out of her arms as they both plummeted in different directions. Everything was spinning, Tuka couldn't tell what was up or down, the ceiling and the streets below just became a big blur. The young man hadn’t even the time to process what had happened, nor was he sure what to think. Once he realized he was falling, Tuka knew that whatever he landed on would make no difference. Even if the surface below was made of plush, one bad landing would still kill him. Be it his back, the top of his head, his legs, the impact would alone be enough to finish him. “I’m going to die…” was the last thing he thought.

Finally, he landed flat on his back sinking into an indescribably soft surface, his descent was instantly slowed to a halt. A bit disoriented, it took Tuka a few moments to see straight before he was once again looking at the vast ceiling of the plush dome. “I’m not dead…” was the first thing he thought. Tuka didn’t feel any pain, and he wasn't in shock. whatever he had landed on must have completely absorbed the impact this fall. The human slowly sat up as he regained his bearings, he saw that he was on top of some kind of big blue rounded pillow in the center of a town road. To his surprise, the surface wobbled with every movement he made, slightly sinking under this weight and keeping him comfortably supported bean bag chair. It felt like he had was sitting on a giant Mochi. "Hewo!” said a cute voice. Tuka looked around, but he couldn't find the source of the voice. “Who?” he asked. Just then, he felt something poking him from behind. Turning around to see what was, he was surprised to see what looked like a big blue tentacle behind him. The tentacle quickly wrapped around his belly, firmly but gently taking hold of him as he was gently lifted off the soft plush.

"Woah!” Tuka gasped, taken off guard by the soft tentacle as it pulled him down the front of its large body. There, he was met with its simple sewed-on face looking at him curiously. With two oval-shaped eyes, a small cute little smile, and two rosy blushes, it looked like a Sanrio toy or one of those digital emote stickers he had on his phone. Tuka’s jaw nearly dropped, getting a better view of his savior, who was much bigger than anything he had seen thus far. It had several large puffy tentacles poking out from underneath its rounded body, each one a lighter shade of blue. Most of its tentacles were subtly tucked away under its bulbous form, which resembled a large seamless umbrella-like body. It was like a giant plush jellyfish, about the size of a small circus tent, or a large tank if not bigger. In a moment of silence, the jellyfish just stared at him, tilting its face and rotating Tuka’s body around to get a better look at him. “Awe U awight?” the jellyfish asked. Tuka bit his lip trying not to giggle. The way the plush talked was absurdly cutesy, like something out of an anime. Even though the voice was kind of fitting, it was still difficult for the young man to keep a straight face. “I’m alright.” he said unable to hide his smile.

“U Suwe?" It asked lifting two of its other two tentacles. “U fewl fwum wewey high uwp.” One of the appendages poked at his face rubbing his cheek, as the other tentacle massaged his arms and legs checking for bruises. Tuka couldn’t help but laugh as the soft tendrils ticked his body, probing him as a doctor would. “hehehe- I’m f-f-f-fine!” Tuka giggled. Complying, the plush stopped rubbing him down but kept poking at his cheek playfully. “I’m Gwad.” the Jellyfish smiled, still stroking his cheek like a pet. “U Muwst uf been swo scawred.” The plush then placed another tentacle underneath his legs, allowing him to sit, so he wasn't just dangling above the ground. “It, all just happened really fast.” Tuka replied, surprised at the plushes treatment. Despite its overly cutesy voice, it seems to have an almost maternal mentality, the way the tentacles handle his body reflecting its protective personality. Tuka began to relax in its arms, enjoying the jellyfish’s gentle treatment. But then, he remembered the bunny had also fallen mid-jump with him, making his heart sink. “Oh no! There was a bunny carrying me when I fell, she may be hurt!” he said looking panicked.

"Pwushes cawn’t be huwt siwy.” the jellyfish giggled. “Wewe towo sowft n squwishy.” the plush proceeded to pull Tuka closer, pressing him against the side of its squishy face. “See?” Tuka let out a light comforting whimper as the plush nuzzled him, it was so warm and elastic it felt like he was being hugged by a warm marshmallow. “Shew be fwine.” the plush giggled, keeping him pressed against its face. “A-Are you sure?” Tuka asked, his voice slightly muffled by the soft surface. “Yesh.” the plush responded, pulling Tuka back in front of its face. “Bwut it dowosn’t mata. Yow’re Mwine Nowo.” it giggled. Tuka just paused, taking a moment to realize what the jelly was implying. “What?" he asked. "I Cawught u siwiy, dat mweans u gwo howme wif meh.” the jellyfish winked. The young man began looking flustered, placing his hands on the tentacle holding his waist in protest. "But I was going to go with-" suddenly before he could finish two of the other tentacles began poking at his feet causing him to giggle.

"She wowst u.” the jellyfish said. Tuka began pulling his feet away, unable to hold back his laughter, but the jellyfish quickly wrapped up both of his ankles to keep him still. "N-n-no” Tuka begged, but the Jellyfish didn’t listen, and kept tickling his feet. "Yow're mwine nwo.” it giggled. Wiggling around helplessly, Tuka attempted to push against the tentacles holding onto his midsection but was unable to escape from the frisky plush. “Plehehehese…” Tuka begged, but the jelly just smiled, watching the young man laugh and struggle. “Suuuu... wat du yowo say?” the jelly asked. "Iwo stwop if u sway yesh.” Tuka didn't yield, unable to stop thinking about the bunny who had pulled him from the giant plush ball. Unfortunately, he couldn't defend himself against the plushes onslaught of tickles, barely able to wiggle as the pillowy tentacles held him in place. All Tuka could do was endure the playful torture, hoping that the bunny was doing better than he was. “Wewl?” the Jelly asked, still waiting for his response.

Biting his lip, Tuka struggled to control his laughter as he finally mustered a response. “N-n-no!” he said. The jellyfish suddenly stopped tickling him, its expression going blank as its face tilted to the right. "I've been nearly captured by several plushes already, but the only one I want to go home with is the bunny.” he said pausing for a moment, while the jellyfish just stared at him with an expressionless face, as if trying to process his answer. “Truth is… I’ve been wanting to take the bunny home with me for a long time, but I never had the courage to. But now, I have a chance to get to know her.” After a few brief moments, the jelly puffed out its cheeks grumpily, slowly releasing Tuka’s ankles. “Phew…” the human thought. “Look’s like he…. or she understands.” still unsure of the plushes gender. Suddenly he was lifted back to the top of its head, unraveling its tentacle from Tuka's midsection as he was plopped back onto the soft umbrella. “Hey, what are you doing?" Tuka asked, struggling to stand up. "Hmph!” The jellyfish huffed.

Then, Tuka felt the soft surface of the plush sinking beneath him, or rather…. pulling him in. Tuka quickly tried to sit up, but the surface began wrapping around his legs as if grabbing onto him. The mochi plush was engulfing him, sucking him in as his legs quickly disappeared underneath the marshmallowy surface. It was like the jellyfish plush had taken on the consistency of actual jelly while maintaining its pillowy texture. "Wa-wait!” Tuka pleaded, pushing his hands against the soft sinking surface. The jellyfish continued to ignore him, allowing him to sink into its soft umbrella. With his struggles proving fruitless, Tuka was pulled in up to his chest, seconds away from being submerged. “Hey, l-I'm sure there are other humans in this contest who need your love way more than I do." he said, trying to ease the grumpy plush. “No one said the first human you capture has to be the one you take home right? You'll find someone who appreciates your love I promise!” Unfortunately, his words fell on deaf ears. "Nuuu! U stay wiph me.” the plush huffed. Tuka continued sinking into the soft surface the soft material now up to his shoulders his arms finally sinking beneath the marshmallow-like surface.

“Please! Be reasonable!” Tuka pleaded, with only his neck sticking out of the plush. However, he couldn’t deny that the inside of the plush felt incredibly pleasant, it was as if he was neck-deep in actual marshmallow. But there was no way he would able to escape this mushy material should he be enveloped completely. “Wai-mph!” Before the young man could udder under another word, half of his face was sucked into the surface, creeping over his head like quicksand. "U Twake a nap!” The jellyfish huffed. With that, the human disappeared within its soft umbrella. All Tuka could see was the blue surroundings of his new mochi-like prison, it's insides illuminated by the light above like it was actual jelly. Tuka squirmed around within his confines, hoping to push the plushy walls away to make some space. But the soft enclosure only shifted with his movements, keeping him firmly pinned in place while absorbing all of his struggles. “It's stretchy, soft, elastic, I can move but I can't get out!” he thought to himself. Soon after, he ceased his pointless struggles and became completely still.

After taking a few moments, he realized how comfortable his enclosure was. Rather than being kept in prison, it felt like the jellyfish was hugging him from every conceivable angle. With its flexibility and warm temperature, it was almost like a cozy plush womb. Though hopeless, he knew the jellyfish wouldn't harm him, allowing himself to relax within its confines. Part of him hoped that the bunny would save him again, yanking him out of his plushy prison before jumping away with him in her large gentle arms. Tuka found himself stuck in that thought, how comfy he felt while being held by her, how mesmerizing her mischievous smile was, and how he just loved being with her in that brief time. And with his soft surroundings pressing against him, he could easily imagine being hugged by her again. Closing his eyes, Tuka loosened up, surrendering himself to the jellyfish and drifting away with his thoughts. Crossing its tentacles, the jelly plush smugly puffed its cheeks, still looking grumpy. “Hmph… Hewl wuv me ewentuawey."

Closing its eyes, the jellyfish contracted the stuffing around Tuka, increasing pressure on his body ensuring that he couldn’t climb out. Feeling triumphant, the plush let out a sigh, holding its occupant snug and secured within its body. But just as it was about to relax, the plush heard something fluttering overhead, it sounded like a large pair of flapping wings. Before The jellyfish could look up, what could only be described as a pair of plushy claws snagged onto its squishy umbrella. "Oomph!” the jellyfish grunted. The talons reached deep within its body, pulling the human out from its surface before flying off. The jellyfish jiggled around in place, dazed with little to no time to process what had just happened. “Wha-wha-wut?” it stuttered, patting the top of its umbrella with its tentacles. The jellyfish quickly realized that the human was no longer stored inside its umbrella, sending it into a panic.

“Mwoy huwun!” the jellyfish yelped reaching its tentacles upwards, but it was too late. The flying thief was already out of sight, taking the human with it. With its simple face drooping into a depressed frown, all the jellyfish could do was look at the dome above, hoping to at least catch a glimpse of its stollen prize, slumping it’s mochi-like body, in defeat. But then, two large paws snatched at its face, snapping the plush out of its depressed state. “Womhp.” the jelly groaned, it's cheeks smushed together. It was the sporty-looking plush bunny, looking mad and out of breath. “Where’s my boy?” she asked.

By now, Tuka was high above the plush town, dangling in the air with two large plushy claws firmly latched onto both of his upper arms. It didn’t take him long to come back to his senses, woken up by the sound of air whistling past his ears. Letting out a puzzled gasp, he found himself looking down at the plushy streets below and immediately closing his eyes out of fear as he was flown across the town. It was then he noticed the faint sound of large powerful wings flapping above him, though difficult to hear over the strong wind blowing around him. Suddenly, the claws released him, sending him into a panic for a brief moment before landing on another soft surface. Relieved, Tuka opened his eyes, he had landed on another plush roof consisting of memory foam. This roof was a few stories taller than all the surrounding plush buildings, giving him an almost perfect view of the. “You were almost jellyfish food, are you alright?” a friendly feminine voice said behind him, followed up by the sound of shifting fabric. “What now?” Tuka thought, looking behind him.

There stood an elegant voluptuous owl plush woman, covered in dark fluffy fabric, with a soft white underbelly, and a figure that honestly made his heart skip a beat. Anthropomorphic in shape, she had large wings for arms, and fluffy but powerful-looking grey legs with large soft talons for feet. Though human in shape, she had no clothes, and her head was mostly owl-like, with a curved beak that gave her a stoic expression, with large but beautiful dark eyes, and white fabric around her face, with cute fluffy cheeks. The white fabric covering her belly also went up to her voluptuous fluffy chest, which stood out among her alluring features like a comfy pillow. Her entire body looked like it was designed for cuddling, from the chest down, it looked like she was made for cuddling, from her fluffy faux fur fabric to her slender but shapely build, he felt safer just by looking at her. With a playful giggle, she put her wing up to her face, covering her modest beak. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you, I panicked when I saw the jellyfish eat you.” she said playfully, slowly stepping towards him. Tuka gulped nervously looking up at his new savior, she was much taller than him, like the other plushes before her. Once she was close to him she leaned down over him, placing her wings behind her back while pumping out up her voluptuous chest in a flirty position.

“The moment I saw you in danger, I just wanted to swoop in and take you away. And don’t worry, the plush balls won’t reach us up here.” she said with a smile. Tuka looked away, struggling not to stare at her puffy chest, and unable to hide his nervous face. “I’m ok, t-thank you.” he stuttered. The owl woman looked upon him with wide doting eyes, putting her wings up to her cheeks excitedly. “Ohhh? You’re nervous!” she cooed. Without warning, she wrapped her wings around him, scooping him off of the plushy floor and into her fluffy fluttery arms. “Whoa!” Tuka yelped in surprise. Before he knew it, he was cradled up against the owls' voluptuous chest, where her breasts squished against his body like a couple of cotton pillows. “So cute!” she giggled, squeezing him tight in her hug. Though surprised, Tuka felt comfortable in her arms, supporting and cushioning his weight surprisingly well in her soft delicate-looking wings. Whiled cradled, she allowed the human to lay his head upon her soft chest as he blushed ear to ear. With her soft wings and pillowy chest, it almost felt like he was tucked up into bed rather than being held in a woman's arms.

"This is why I love humans, they can never hide when they're nervous or happy.” she chuckled nuzzling her beak against the top of his head. Tuka didn’t resist, allowing her to snuggle him in her arms as she pampered him like a prince. “Why are all these plushes so touchy?” Tuka thought. "H-hey…” he said. The woman stopped her nuzzling and looked him in the eyes. “Yes?” the plush asked, tilting her head curiously. “Why do plushes love humans so much? You all seem to want to snuggle me at first sight.” Tuka asked. The owl woman kept him in her arms, giving him a warm grin. “It’s true, it's a plush's nature to love humans. But in the case of this contest, it's not all that simple.” she explained. "What do you mean?” asked Tuka. The owl woman sat down in a lotus position, keeping her wings underneath the human while lowering him down into her lap. "You see, before every contest, we're given a profile on each human contestant, with a synopsis on their history and personality.”

Tuka just looked at her in awe. “They even have profiles on us?” Tuka asked. “Yep, only humans who are deemed nice and deserving of love are chosen for events like these. So we're not just chasing humans at random, we specifically choose which ones we're interested in.” the owl winked. “And you… were one of those cuties I just couldn't resist.” she cooed rubbing her wings against his cheeks. The owl woman's soft fur rubbed against his cheeks, causing him to giggle a bit. However, he only began thinking about the bunny again. "This explains how the bunny new I’d be here.” he though. By now, Tuka wasn't quite fazed by tickling, overcoming his giggles quickly enough to ask a follow-up question. "But why me? I mean you could've grabbed any human you wanted when the contest started right? Why make your move this late in the game?” Tuka asked. The owl woman ceased tickling him, looking down at the plushy roof has her smile slowly drooped away. Something was troubling her.

"Well… actually, I did manage to catch a human earlier, but…” the owl woman paused for a moment, looking back over to Tuka as she tried to remain cheerful. “She was around your age I believed, you're in college right?” she asked. Tuka nodded. “She had a gothic sense of fashion, lots of skulls on her shirt, had long hair, black lipstick. She was funny and had a cute personality.” she smiled. “What happened to her?” Tuka asked, still snuggled up in her lap. “Well, rather than taking her to the checkpoint where we could've gone home together, we just sat on a nearby roof and talked for a while." the owl woman explained, no longer using her flirty voice, now talking normally but maintaining her soothing tone. “But then the plush balls suddenly showed up out of nowhere and snatched her up… and I couldn't even save her. By the time I was airborne the ball was long gone, and I couldn't tell them all apart.” the woman could no longer smile, her beautiful eyes now filled with regret and gulit. “I'll probably never get another chance to see her again, humans rarely get into this game twice.”

The owl woman looked so sad, she couldn’t even look Tuka in the eye. In a moment of silence, she just stared down the floor in regret, keeping her wings wrapped around the human while he rested in her lap. Tuka felt genuinely bad for the plush woman, she looked so lonely even with him keeping her company. “Is this how plushes feel when they don’t have humans? This must be why they’re so clingy.” Tuka thought. Sitting back up, he leaned closer to her face as she looked back at him. “What if… you could meet her outside of this competition? I mean if you know her name could you visit her at home or something?” Tuka suggested. The plush woman just sighed, but couldn’t help but smile since he was trying to cheer her up. “Plushes aren't allowed to just walk amongst humans, it's strictly forbidden, besides humans would go missing left and right if we were given that much freedom…”

The owl woman once again stroked Tuka’s face with her soft plushy wing. “If I tried, I'd never be allowed near humans ever again.” she said looking him in the eyes, trying to keep her smile on. “But it’s ok, I have you now.” With that, she scooped him back up and held him against her soft fluffy chest. “Mmm…” Tuka moaned comfortably as his face was pressed tightly against her warm fluff. “I'll hold you close, keep you safe, and give you've lots of love.” she cooed, nuzzling the top of his head with her beak. "if you ever have a bad day, you can always talk to me. If you ever feeling stressed or unhappy, my wings will always be open to SQUEEZE your worries away. And if you're ever feeling cold or sleepy, we can always snuggle just like this. ❤️” she cooed hugging him tighter, squishing another moan out of the human.

“I'll make sure you’ll never be lonely as long as I’m by your side.” she whispered kissing the top of his head. The woman’s words made his chest feel all fuzzy and warm, wanting nothing more than to melt in her wings as she held him. Out of all the plushes he had met today, the owl woman was one of the sweetest, which made what he was about to say all the more painful. “Hey miss, what’s your name?” Tuka asked. “Sky.” the woman replied, leaning his head back as she gave him another smile. “What’s yours?” she asked. “I-It’s Tuka” he stuttered. The owl woman giggled, tilting her head a couple of times. “Tuka… Cute. ❤️” she cooed, booping his nose with her beak. Tuka became even more nervous, he thought that knowing her name would what he was about to say a little easier, but he was wrong. “Sky, thank you for saving me from the jellyfish, you're so nice and cuddly… but…” Tuka hesitated to finish his sentence, seeing the owl woman’s smile slowly fade.

Though trying her best to keep a straight face, she couldn't hide the subtle disappointment in her expression. “Is this too much?” she asked. Hearing a hint of pain in her voice, Tuka couldn't ignore his guilt in rejecting such a sweet and loving plush. Sitting up from her wings, he suddenly gave her a big tight hug, wrapping his arms around her shoulders. “Whoo?” Sky squeaked in surprise, blushing as he cuddled her. Taking a moment before responding, he squeezed her tightly, returning the affection she had showed him only moments earlier. With a stoic smile, the owl woman hugged him back, blanketing him in her soft wings. “You're really sweet, and under normal circumstances, I would love to go home with you.” Tuka explained. “But… There’s already a plush that I want to go home with.”

Remaining silent, the owl plush took a deep breath, keeping Tuka in her hug for a few moments longer. “What’re they like?” she asked, lowering Tuka back into her soft wings. “Well, she’s very flirty and playful, seemed to find me cute when I got all nervous, and… rather seductive.” he explained. The owl looked rather relieved, chuckling under her breath. “Sounds like a bunny plush. They’re well known for being flirty and romantic, and they can be very energetic, even for humans.” she said. “That explains her sporty outfit, and why she can jump so high.” he replied. With a subtle sigh, Sky just looked the human in the eye for a few silent moments. “You must really like her," she said sincerely. “Well, I guess.” he said blushing. “Up 'til now I had only seen her through a toy store window, but today we finally got to meet each other in person.” The owl woman then leaned in closer with a look of curiosity on her face. “But what happened? How did you end up in the jellyfish? Did you get separated?” she asked. Tuka could see a look of concern in her eyes. “Oh, it happed she was caring me the checkpoint, hopping between the rooftops. We were hit by a plush ball in midair, sending us both flying in different directions, that how I ended up landing on the jellyfish.” he explained.

The owl woman took a deep breath, looking rather worked up. “It's not fair… ” she said under her breath. “What?” Tuka asked. A look of distress washed over Sky's face. "Sky?” Tuka began feeling concerned, as the owl plush began breaking down. “I-It's like they added the plush balls as a sick joke! This is an opportunity for humans and plushes to bond, not a stupid game show!” she sobbed. "We plushes wait, and wait, and wait for opportunities like this, to be paired with someone to share our love with. Now it's something they can just take away for a little entertainment!” Sky impulsively hugged the human back against her chest, nearly crushing him in her wings as she continued sobbing. “Mmph…” he moaned, his head wedged and smothered in her pillowy chest. “It's not fair!” she grieved, paying little attention to the smothered human in her embrace. But after a few moments of looking at the floor, Sky loosened her grip on Tuka allowing him to breathe once again as she calmed down. “It’s not fair… I want my human...” she whimpered.

Seeing the poor woman sob was just heartbreaking for Tuka, even with her stoic owl-like face, he could tell she was in anguish. Sky was such a nice loving plush, and she didn’t deserve to be in so much pain. It was hard to see her like this, but now he understood why plushes need humans so much. Sitting up from her wings, he placed his hand on her right cheek. Getting her attention as she looked at him, seeing his concerned face as he ran his hand down her face. "Oh Tuka…” she leaned to him, nuzzling his face with affection. "You sweet boy. ❤️” she purred holding him close as she pressed her face against his. Tuka sighed comfortably as she playfully rubbed her beak against the side of his cheek, probably her way of giving a kiss. Sky continued nuzzling him for a few brief moments, before lowering him back into her lap. "let's find your bunny.” she smiled.
