Flipping Between (FlippyXFlaky)

Invite

"Hmm, well, this certainly was unexpected. Though, perhaps a certain word reminded him of something..." Sniffles noted, carefully observing Flippy's breakdown. Of course, Petunia and Toothy were terrified. They were quick to panic, remembering past experiences with Flippy.

As they tried to back up, Flippy swiftly grabbed Petunia's wrist. She squeaked, struggling against the bear's sturdy grip. Flippy turned to her, that malicious grin on his face. Before she even had time to scream, Flippy had jumped to his feet, throwing her into a wall, Toothy immediately rushing to her side.

Seeing Sniffles as the closest victim, Flippy pounced at him, aggressively grabbing his long snout, yanking it. The anteater wailed in fear, struggling against the large, green paw. The other paw was placed on his forehead, claws lightly digging in. Sniffles was in pure agony, the burning sensation of his skin being pulled further than it ever should. His eyes met Flippy's, seeing only rage and insanity. His laugh was low, gravelly, and chilling to the core.
"AHHH! FLIPPY!" He heard Flaky shriek. It would appear she'd only just woken up, and had saw what Flippy was doing.

Flippy twitched, shaking his head. He slowly opened his eyes, seeing Sniffles glaring at him with wide, fearful, and confused eyes. He lept back, whimpering as he saw small bits of blood leaking from his forehead. He looked over at Flaky, who trembled, but relaxed when he looked at her. He stumbled back, finding the sofa, before curling up on it, ears flat, and eyes puffy. Flaky shuffled over, cuddling him, Flippy squeezing her back, sobbing heavily.
"S- so, uhh, Flippy..." Sniffles started, trying to regain his composure, still in shock by how fast things went down, "do you mind explaining what went through your head?" Flippy didn't respond, quivering in Flaky's embrace.

Ring ring. Ring ring. Petunia's attention turned to her phone. It was Lumpy.
"Hey. What do you need?" She greeted.

"I just got off work, and I was wondering if you, Toothy and Flaky wanted to meet at Angel Oak Park," Lumpy replied, clearly enthusiastic.

"Uhh, you mind if Flippy comes too? He's currently with us, and he really could use some cheering up..." Petunia asked, glancing at the still distraught bear.

"Of course! I love Flippy's company!" Lumpy exclaimed cheerfully. Something about Lumpy caused him to not fear Flippy whatsoever, even after everything that had happened. Obviously, he was alarmed when Flippy began getting violent, but remained shockingly close to him afterwards, seeming to just not care. He was always willing to get close to Flippy, and even willing to push Flippy's buttons when teasing or playing, as much as the others advised him not to. Still, Flippy remained incredibly friendly with him, besides the outbursts. It was no wonder the two were such good friends, even living near eachother as next door neighbours.
"Great! We'll meet you there once Flippy's ready. I'll text when we're on our way," Petunia smiled.

"Hey, Petunia, do you mind if I tag along? I just wanna observe Flippy's usual behaviour," Sniffles requested, Petunia nodding.

"Hey, Lumpy, real quick. Can Sniffles tag along too? He wants to monitor Flippy..." Petunia asked.

"Monitor him? Geez, he's not some wild animal... he's just like everyone else. The flipping out isn't his fault! He tries!... fine, he can come too..." Lumpy groaned, sounding offended for one of his closest friends, "he can come so I can give him a piece of my mind!"

"Lumpy, it's not in a horrible way. He just wants to help..." Petunia sighed, trying to calm the defensive moose.

"Oh yeah, making him feel he needs to be watched is gonna help him soooo much, isn't it?" Lumpy scowled, Petunia shocked at how... intelligent it sounded.

"Ok... well, see you there..." Petunia mumbled, truly not expecting that kinda reaction from Lumpy, especially for something that could help Flippy. All they needed was for Flippy to trust Sniffles. Unfortunately, that wasn't gonna be an easy task. Petunia would have to get them to bond, Sniffles would have to gain Flippy's trust (not an easy task), and Flippy would have to welcome a stranger. Still, Petunia and Toothy were determined.
