Applesauce

(I just realized this sounds kinda like an ending but it's not)

Also I just wanna say how cool Akari looks. Between the wing, the fur color and pattern. I really lucked out on that. AND she has a pink bat hook to match her fur. HOW PERFECT IS THAT?

After their talk, Floo feels a lot better. Just knowing that his anxiety is just anxiety makes him feel better. He has led a great life and has known his purpose along.

'Ah yes.' She says once he's done. 'That's called anxiety. It only happens to things you care about and it's goal is to make them go bad. Sounds like you're living a great life, and you charish that so much.' 'But I never had a family and I never had kids.' 'You helped raise Nunu. He even calls you his uncle. Last time I checked, uncles count as family.' 'But I never found my purpose.' 'Well are and were you happy?' 'Yes but..' 'Than you found it!'

While Nunu is busy, Akari comes over to sit by Floo. She think he needs a talk. Old soul to old soul. 'I can tell you're not yourslef, Floo.' She say, 'What's wrong exactly?' He looks at her hesitantly. 'Is it really that obvious?' 'When you been where I've been, yes.' She answers him. He's still quiet. 'It's ok! More often than not problems of the mind are not unique to you.' That makes him feel a little better, so he shares his thoughts with her. After all, there's not really any other solution.

He parkour like a pro over to the root. 'Yes MA'AM!'

TEH SUN RISES! (I'm running out of ways to say 'it's morning') Akari smells a root. She calls for the only root digger she knows 'NUNU! Theres a root over here for you!' Nunu, having found a new repect for the cookie-like stranger, stands at attention. 'Yes MA'AM!' 'Watch out for falling coconuts!' She warns 'I knew a guy once who forgot his own name after being hit by one of them!'

Akari goes down to the beach to check on Floo. He's been very distance since they met. 'You ok, green bean?' 'Me? Oh yes I'm great! I've been sitting here gathering nuts all day!' 'Hmmm.. ok. Just tell me if you need anything. I'll be in the water. It's bath time!' But little does Floo know that Akari is one of those nichelings who knows when somethings up. She's seen alot out there so of course she's not gonna be clueless.

Meanwhile Nunu and Akari continue with berry duty. Both learn a lot about eachother over berries. Turns out Akari actually traveled a ton in her youth. 'So your telling me that theres a tribe out there that has BABIES with BEARYENAS?' 'Yes! And they're actually quite nice.' She says. 'That's kinda cool! Maybe I'll go there one day.' They pause 'Why'd you stop?' 'Oh, you know, just got a little tired of it. Then one day while I was wandering around this island and I stubbled across this place and though, 'this would make a nice retirement home,' and I've been here ever since.' She's right. It was a nice place. It even has a nest!

Night passes by, and Floo finds himself with another round of nuts to gather. Though he'd usually be excited, today he finds himself swarmed with thoughts. Like BIG thoughts. 'What if I wasted my life traveling instead of having a family? Would I be happier? Was I happy enough?'

Back over somewhere, Akari sits Nunu down by the berry bush. 'Now little man, you will help me harvest the berries!' Nunu is not very exited though. Mainly because his head is stuck in tree, but also because his tail could be put to better use by cracking coconuts. But maybe also because he haves some social anxiety.

Since their hostess alreay ate most of their food, the boys start gathering all the food they can. They love wandering but it'll be nice to take a break and munch of tons of food. Floo goes to gather the coconuts. Still, thoses doubtful thoughts from earlier follow him.

She turns around, revealing a beautiful spotted bat wing. 'Hhmmm... travelers! Been a while since I had visitors. Do you have any food?' 'Umm, yes! We have a little..' Nunu barely shows their very small amount of food. She starts grabbing berries out of his hands before he can say no. Floo is fascinated. This lady really has her priorities straight. 'Uhhhhh anyway, my names Nunu and this is my uncle, Floo.' 'Akari.' Says the strange lady, still focused on the berries. She's older, a bit younger than Floo. 'This is where I live. Thanks for asking if you could stay.' 'Oh... sorry about that.' Floo says. 'It's ok! Make yourselves at home! This bush here has the only berries I can eat and I can't crack nuts so help yourself.'

Soon Nunu steps in to get the nice lady's attention, but instead is stunned by her gorgeous spotted fur. 'Umm, ma'am? We, uhhh, were just in the area for some food and me, I mean we, wanted to introduce ourselves?' Nunu manages to grind out a not-so-bad sentence. A+ for effort!

BUT HOLD YOUR HORSES. These boys have a problem. They have go game! That's the one thing they've never had much experience with. GIRLS. But nows is their chance... They sit there for a minute not really knowing what to do. Neither has more game then the other, so really it's just a mater of chance. Maybe she'll be super nice? Floo hopes so because he starts walking. He says too himself 'I'm doing it for Nunu! One bad experience with romance can ruin the poor little man's career! So brave!' It's seems though that our lady has more important things to attend to then two bachelors. Honestly though, it makes perfect sense.

They awake to yet another blissful morning. But hold on. Somethings off. It's a scent. A firmiliar-ish scent. A very... feminine scent. COULD IT BE?????????????? ITS A FEMALE PEOPLE. CODE PINK CODE PINK CODE FRICKKJKKING PINK

They settle down in their new temporary home. Even the sand is nice and soft! They're almost suprised someone isn't living there already...

Sorry for the wait! I new the cracker jaw would be hard to fit in. My first instinct was to give him sharp teeth but that doesn’t make sense for a creature who cracks nuts so I have him some nice lumpy teeth. Very happy with it. Hope u like!

Thank you! Glad to have you join us

Wow thank you. How long did that take?

*m e t o o*

I pre-played ahead a little and y'all are in for a surprise.

But soon his troubling thoughts are inturrupted. 'Look!' Shouts Nunu. He points over at a cove right in front of them. It looks like the perfect place to rest and gather food for a few days. It even has a coconut tree! AND A BERRY BUSH FLOO WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR EYE. Maybe this place will offer a nice break from all those thoughts he's been having. And of course the snails. Always watching.

AH FINALLY. SUN. And just like yesterday, they continue on their jounry. This time however, Floo is held back by a thought. And what makes it so terrible is that he's been trying to avoid it for awhile. He doesn't do much deep thinking about life and death, but it seems now that he's older he thinks about it almost constantly. 'What if I don't live my life to the fullest?' He wonderers. 'What if I never found my turn passion in life?' And of course, he doesn't tell any of this to Nunu because his worst fear is about what Nunu will do once he's gone?

They choose to wander the beach. This way they can see further and won't get stuck in a bunch of nasty weeds. They continue to cha-cha their way to who knows where. They're not entirely safe though. Some rocks are apparently able to live underwater. Very interesting, but very dangerous.
