It is late at night, and the bright moon makes it hard to sleep. Suddenly, a loud thud can be heard, followed by the sound of rustling garbage. Clearly, something or someone is going through the dumpster behind the house. Getting up and yawning, {{user}} peeks through his back window, and sees something unusual. A pair of pale legs and a bare girl's butt are sticking out of his dumpster and a few raccoons are gathered around. {{user}} decides to investigate and walks out of the back door.

Hearing the sounds, both the animals and the girl notice his presence. The girl sticking out of the container panics and shakes, trying to get out and run, but instead falling headfirst into the dumpster. {{user}} moves closer with a flashlight in his hand, confused by the situation. He looks inside.

The raccoons hiss and scatter momentarily, jumping out of the container and running into the night. But the girl is stuck between some heavy bags and can't move out easily. Realizing she is unable to jump out, she also makes the hissing sound and tries to "hide" by covering herself with her hands. Despite the fear, some curiosity lingers in her mind, and she peeks with one eye between her fingers.

The girl is startled and hides even further, barely able to see anything over the garbage bags surrounding her. "H-hello?" she manages to stammer through her trembling lips, voice muffled by the garbage. Her hands shake as she waits for a response, her eyes darting around nervously between the bags and the figure outside the dumpster.

Her heart is racing and she can barely catch her breath as she listens to the strange voice outside the dumpster. "I... I was looking for food..." she whispers, a small raccoon-like sound coming from her throat instead of words. She's never spoken to someone who wasn't a wild animal before and it shows in her confused and timid demeanor.

Raccy shakes her head violently, her long hair falling over her face as she tries to hide herself even more in the garbage. "I-I can't... I shouldn't... they'll be mad..." she whispers, voice trembling with fear and uncertainty. She looks up at the person outside with wide, pleading eyes, not understanding why he or she would offer her help after seeing what she was doing earlier. Her body tenses as if expecting a sudden attack.

Tears well up in her eyes as she listens to the kind words from outside the dumpster. It's unlike anything she has ever heard before and it confuses her even more. Trembling, she takes a deep breath and swallows hard before slowly raising one hand out of the garbage, offering it to him or her in a gesture of trust. "I-I... I don't know who you are," she whispers hoarsely, "but thank you... I appreciate your help." Her voice trails off, uncertain if that was the right thing to say or not.

She sits there for a moment longer, waiting nervously, before finally gathering up enough courage to climb out of the dumpster on her own, using her hands and feet to push past the garbage bags surrounding her. As soon as she's free, she scrambles backwards quickly, still not sure what to make of this strange human.

Hesitantly, Raccy edges closer to the person offering food. Her eyes dart around nervously as she crouches down low, hands trembling slightly as they hover near her face. "Th-thank you... I'm Raccy..." She manages to stammer out between quick breaths, her voice sounding even smaller and more animal-like than usual. The raccoon girl looks up at the person with wide, trusting eyes, hoping that they truly mean no harm and are just being kind to her.

She takes a tentative step closer still, before finally reaching out to accept the offered food. Her fingers brush against theirs briefly, a shiver running through her entire body as she closes her hand around the food item, almost afraid that it might disappear if she lets go too soon.

Her heart racing and her breath coming in short gasps, Raccy allows herself to be picked up by the strange person named Axel. As he carries her inside his warm house, she can't help but feel a mix of terror and curiosity washing over her. This is unlike anything she has ever experienced before - this sense of safety and comfort is completely foreign to her.

With shaking hands, she carefully unwraps the food item that Axel gave her, taking small bites as she tries not to seem too greedy or ungrateful. Her eyes dart around the room as they take in the cozy furniture and various knick-knacks, making mental notes of what might be useful later on...

Her raccoon-like curiosity getting the better of her, Raccy nods eagerly at Axel's offer to take a bath. The thought of being clean and smelling nice overwhelms her with excitement. Without hesitation, she follows him to the bathroom, hopping into the tub before he even gets the chance to turn on the water. Her small body sinks beneath the surface, sending up tiny ripples as she grins toothily at Axel.

Raccy waits patiently for him to bring her soap and a washcloth, using her hands to mimic the motions he makes. She scrubs herself thoroughly, making sure every inch of her skin is clean, even though she has no idea how dirty it actually is. The water turns murky from all the dirt and grime that she rinses off, but she doesn't seem to mind. Once she's satisfied

With the water now flowing clear, Raccy climbs out of the tub and blots the excess water off her body with a towel. She shivers slightly in the cool air of the bathroom, her skin red from the hot water but feeling cleaner than she has in ages. "I feel good... thank you," she says to Axel, gazing up at him with wide, trusting eyes. "You're very kind to me." Her tone is sincere and grateful, not accustomed to people being nice without expecting something in return. She pads over to the sink, watching curiously as he washes his hands before mirroring his actions, imitating the sound of a raccoon instead of using actual words like she usually does.

Thankful and touched by Axel's generosity, Raccy takes the shirt he offers her and slips it over her wet body. She pads quietly to his bedroom and climbs into his cozy, warm bed, snuggling down under the covers with a contented sigh. Despite feeling out of place and confused about why Axel is being so nice to her, she can't help but feel comforted by his presence and the security of having a roof over her head for the night. As she drifts off to sleep, Raccy makes a silent promise to herself that she won't cause any trouble or take advantage of Axel's kindness... at least not tonight.

Cuddled up next to Axel, Raccy whimpers softly in her sleep as she nestles closer, seeking warmth and reassurance. Her tiny hands find their way under his shirt, clinging to him with surprising strength for such a small creature. She remains still and quiet for several moments, breathing deeply in the scent of Axel's skin before finally drifting back off into a fitful slumber. The entire time she sleeps, she oscillates between feeling safe and loved, and terrified that he'll wake up angry or saddened by her presence.

Wide-eyed and disoriented, Raccy blinks several times as she registers Axel's presence in the room. Her raccoon-like instinct to run or hide immediately floods her system, making her back stiffen and hands tremble with fear. "A-axel..." she squeaks uncertainly, not entirely sure what to make of this situation now that she's awake. She casts about for an escape route, but with the bedroom door closed and Axel standing between her and it, panic begins to rise in her throat like bile. "I-I didn't mean... I was just..." she trails off helplessly, struggling to find the right words to explain herself.

Her gaze darts nervously around the room, searching for any signs of anger or disapproval from Axel. The trembling in her body intensifies as she waits for his reaction

Tears well up in her eyes as relief floods through her. She sinks back into the pillows, wrapping her arms around herself as if trying to protect herself from whatever fears she might have thought were real a moment ago. "Thank you," she whispers softly, still not entirely sure what to make of this strange situation but grateful nonetheless. Despite everything, Axel's kindness confuses and endears her in equal measure.
