It's been a long time since Momiji - this Momiji, at least - found himself stuck as a rabbit. And he can't remember ever waking up as one, but, today, this is exactly what's happened. Just squirming out from underneath the covers had proved a very fearful adventure. And, as if things couldn't get any worse...he hasn't turned back.

Not after the usual five or so minutes of waiting idly on his bed. Not after another fifteen. By the time his internal clock told him he was probably approaching the half-hour mark, he was in something of a panic.

Which is why, now, there's a little, white-furred rabbit hopping through Hogwarts in an awful hurry. Maybe there'll be someone who can explain why a curse he thought was broken is suddenly reasserting itself like mad. Though, with his luck, he thinks, he'll probably turn back in the middle of the hall, a mile or two away from his clothes.

Not a good morning, overall.

Hee, bunny! He gets a bonus cuddle with his pickup.

Laura is all about fuzzy animals.

"Did you just get here? Like, from home?"

Given his current stress level, Momiji is totally not going to object to cuddles. Even if his fur is all but standing on end, at the moment.

"Yesterday. But I woke back up as a rabbit, this morning."

He's not even going to try to explain his history of turning into a rabbit, at this point.

"You weren't one before?"

Hmmm...

"Did a witch cast a spell on you?" This is totally a likely scenario.

"No...uhm, I'm kinda cursed so I turn into one, sometimes."

His ears fidget, and he slumps into the girl's arms with an audible whimper that a normal bunny totally couldn't make.

"Or I was. It hadn't happened for a long time."

"Oh. Can you fix it?"

"It's supposed to fix itself. But it's not, this time."

The bunny-boy raises his head up a little, staring down the hallway in the direction that they're facing.

"I was hoping someone would know what's going on."

Fat chance, really, but he wasn't thinking clearly.

"Oh. Um... maybe Kate would know. She's a superhero.

"Nobody knows for real, though, because everyone here's from somewhere else."

"Yeah."

Momiji's noticed that already, from the bleak sound of his voice. Still, he resolves with a sudden squirm to make the best of it...he'll have to turn back sometime, right? Maybe his mind's just exaggerating how long it's been.

"Er...is there anywhere I can get clothes, maybe? I only have what I showed up with."

And now they're dirty. Ick.

"Yeah, there's stores and stuff. You don't even have to pay. Only you gotta be careful, 'cause of the plants."

"They're outside?"

It isn't so much a question as a quiet, little bemoaning of something he already knows is true.

"...Maybe I'll go when I'm not a bunny."

"You could take someone with you. Sometimes I take Mudkip. He's kind of good, when he's not being a wuss."

"I don't know a lot of people here, yet."

This will have to be rectified as soon as he's no longer all fuzzy, perhaps.

"Oh, yeah," he perks up, all of a sudden, "What's your name? I forgot to ask."

"...Laura." It is probably safe to give your name to a bunny. Even if the bunny turns into a person. "I'm Laura. I live here."

"Nice to meet you."

There is a quick rabbit-nuzzle offered to one of the girl's arms. After all, there are much worse people he could've bumped into, this morning.

Like a really hungry person. Eep.

Yay cuddly bunny!

"If you want, I guess I could show you around."

"Alright!"

Momiji does his best to nod, though it's not a very natural motion for a rabbit.

"I've only seen the way from the door to the bedrooms. But the girl I met was going to show me her map!"

"It's really, really big. I haven't even looked at all the rooms yet!"

"Yeah, it's really huge!" Momiji agrees, from his flopped over position in Laura's arms.

"And the girl I talked to said the stairs move around and everything."

"Yeah." Walking, woo! "There's a trillion places to hide." Which is an important detail even without the presence of dangerous plant life.

"...Do you ever get time to play, around here?"

Marvel as the incredible rabbit-boy shifts around to look up at his new acquaintance/present mode of transportation!

"Or is it all scary stuff and work and things?"

Not that he still considers hide-and-seek a necessary part of life at seventeen or anything.

"Oh yeah! Nobody bosses me around or anything. I get to do whatever I want." All in all, that makes this place almost better than where she came from.

"Neat!"

The rabbit swivels his head, glancing around at the various halls and stairwells they're passing, trying to keep at least some sense of what's around them, as he goes.

[OOP: Request either slowtime or fade; mun's brain is dying right now. :/ ]

[OOC: Fade there seems good. Hope your brain recovers! =D]
