Series of one shot stories. Not sure how many more I'll do after the set I made are done. Did it more out of fun than anything serious ^^;
Hope you guys enjoy.

My alarm went off as usual, leaving me to waking up with five little plushies crawling all over me, one going for my alarm, this time it being L.
"Morning Mom," he chirped as the others sleepily got up, one tumbling down the front of my gown as I got up, it being Gaara, who looked up at me with a pouting look, though it was completely adorable.
Though some fussed about it, they grew used to my schedule when it came to going to high school, always ready to greet me when I got home. Plus, with me raising so many of them, I did more research on them, finding a site of fellow plushie owners, naming sites that help in raising them on some needs. Such as a site that helps them having their own toilet and steps to reach it based on its location. Same with food, though it was pretty easy on that part. I just left what was healthy and could last the day out in the open, without needing to be refridgerated.
Plus with having them, it got my mind on a creative streak where I designed little interesting gadgets to help my plushies. One of my best would be a railway like attatchment to my normal railing, the top a step ladder so they could climb up into a padded basket with added seatbelts. From there, they could pretty much slide down with a drop ladder ready inside the basket so they could climb down and wander around the ground floor. It took some work and effor from several of the shop classes, but it was done, tested with regular dolls than using mine or someone else's plushies. Once sure it worked with no faults, I brought it home, hooked it up, did another test drive, and let my plushies have fun. Course, it was only big enough to fit two of them at a time. So to make it easier in bringing it back up, a line is set at the top of the stairs, so it could be pulled back up, set up for another drop with more of them inside.
"Mom, don't you have a cosplay event today at a store?" Zetsu asked sweetly as they got dressed, me gathering my own clothes before realizing he was right, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Right" I sheepishly spoke as I quickly grabbed my cosplay gear, changing into that instead, the plushies, out of respect, turning around. Though Zetsu would pretend to peek, causing Gin and Gaara to tackle him, the other two having learned he was only goofing around.
Once dressed, I looked over to make sure nothing was out of order the best I could physically. I was cosplaying as one of the Seven Paths of Pein, the costume originally saved for CTcon, but decided to wear it early for a cosplay contest at a store over in a mall. I was going with friends and sadly, as much as I wanted to, I couldn't bring any of my plushies, Zetsu especially since the two of us would've gone great together for the event.
As I left, the plushies were left to their own devices, usually resulting in some just relaxing and watching TV, if not playing with my cat, mainly tossing a ball and watching her attempt to play soccer with it, crashing head first into a wall or door most of the time.

As mom left, making sure we had what we needed to go through the day, each of us promising her we'd be good. Each of us had our own breakfast, mostly being the same cereal she had, plus milk that was poured in a container to fill each of bowls with no leftovers. Our drinks were the same juice she had as well, none of us minding. It was still great to eat, plus we got to do this everyday with her. I could tell Zetsu was upset about not allowed to go with her, the same with Gaara. But the smaller of the pair understood, since he came from the very same store she's going to for this event. Zetsu didn't fully understand it and was upset for most of the day.
"Zetsu, the rest of us are going downstairs to watch the birds. Want to come along?" I asked, hoping to cheer him up a little.
Bird watching became a fun hobby for us since watching TV wasn't as much fun without Mom around to hold us if we got scared. She loved horror stuff and we came to loving it too since she'd hold us if we got scared, even at night.
"Okay," he grumbled as he followed me to the basket Mom put together for us.
Gin and Gaara went down first, then Zetsu and I were next, followed by Near since he was the strongest to hoist the basket back up alone. When reaching the bottom, we hurried along and made our way to the living room, the very same room our new lives began on Christmas, or for most of us, it began that way.
All of us sat in our places at the window, watching different birds coming and going, some fighting with each other if one feeder go to crowded, a baby screaming to be fed. Even the occassion squirrel would appear, leaving our Mom's mom, she doesn't want to be a grandmother, which is weird for us to find something to call her. Well, if she catches the squirrel in the feeders, or coming near them, or we call her and tell her there's one, either she would go out and chase the furry rodent off, or she'd send Salem, the family's black cat, out to chase him off.
After awhile, we got bored and annoyed watching the birds, mostly with Mom's dad having the TV on, it usually louder than it should be. So we went back upstairs, got ourselves a lunch when looking at the time, then hopped into the bed to relax.
Zetsu's pov
I love Mom and all, but I just can't really find any reason to smile today. If it wasn't for that mall's stupid rules, I'd be with her, all of us would most likely. Same with schools, they would treat us like animals unlike Mom, who treats us as if we were her flesh and blood. She even treats the cats the same way, showing just how big a heart she has. Why can't more people be like that? Just because we're plushies, made based off of characters from programs, and some of us just happen to get the luck of having life brought into them somehow, we can't be treated as if we're intelligent.
My thoughts were broken when L invited me to go with him and the others bird watching. I only agreed because I didn't want them to worry, or worry that I was mad at Mom. We already dealt with that with Near when he got scolded pretty badly for pushing me and L out of bed one time. We weren't seriously hurt, but we wouldn't stop crying for awhile and he got in trouble, scolded for quite some time.
When watching birds was becoming to much a hassel, we went and had lunch, returning to our room and into our shared bed. I was awake, though grew sleepy from boredom, most of the others out cold, sleeping off their lunch and from playing around earlier. However, I felt my eyes grow heavy, but snapped them open when hearing voices downstairs.
"Guys, Mom's home" I spoke, trying to wake them up, getting some to stir a little, but weren't focused completely.
Gin was the first to wake up, his whole body alert and ready, appearing the most eager to see Mom. Who can blame him? He was the first one to be unwrapped that day and bonded with her the most, even if it was mostly through sleeping and a cat yowling in their ears. Gaara was next, the two having this twin thing going on, possibly due to their sizes. L was still out cold, as was Near, but they were soon awaken when Sassy, Mom's main cat living in the room with us started her yowling, a sure sign that Mom was home, or would be soon. She even leapt off the bed and ran head first into the door, pawing at it and attempting to circle the closed door, waiting for her.
"Hey guys," she greeted as she walked in. "I've got a surprise for you."
We all scrambled to the edge of the bed, anticipating of what she meant as she briefly told us what happened, about how her friend won, which she felt she would since she could pull of the character the best, even if it was just between the two of them before meeting others. What she did tell us was that she did some minor shopping, presenting first a Zubat doll she found.
"What else did you buy?" Near asked, ready to spring off the bed and tackle her leg as she made us turn around long enough to change into a different outfit.
"We have a new addition to our family," she began with a grin. "I want you boys to meet Ichigo."
Next thing we knew was an orange haired plushie like us peek from behind the doorframe, a scowl plastered onto his face, though he also appeared nervous.
"Hi," he whispered softly as he clung himself to Mom's leg, appearing more nervous when seeing there were others here.
"Its okay Ichigo, they're family, they'll help you when you need it if I'm not around," Mom spoke warmly as she gently picked him up and held him close, taking his toy ZanpakutÅ off his back, setting it on a shelf with Gin's, keeping them safe from harm.
"How did you find him?" L asked as Mom sat in the bed, Ichigo curled up in her arms while the rest of us scrambled into her embrace, glad to have her home. Mom began retelling about how she found him not long after finding the Zubat plush.
Hope you enjoyed
