{warning! The content ahead will be filled with hella fluffy oc x canon character content. Specifically malhare. If that ain't your cup of tea then well I'm not forcing you to read it. Thanks and enjoy this small fluff}
"Marie, where's my jacket?" Malhare was scouring his office bedroom. Marie called from the other room. "It's in the dryer! Don't worry it's almost done"
Malhare let out a relieved sigh. Then went back to looking at his choice of outfit. It was Valentine's Day, or well the day before because of scheduling, and malhare was meeting his boyfriend on a date.
And he was probably taking it a bit too seriously if Marie had a say in it. But Damien was usually out of town, and he was able to come in this week to spend time with Mal, The rabbit couldn't be faulted for wanting to make this special. He looked over his outfit, sure it was similar to his usual casual attire, which was a purple jacket and beanie. But he had a nicer looking undershirt and jeans to make it look a bit nicer, but was it missing something? Malhare thought it over until a familiar giggle caught his attention, one of the minirinas had somehow snuck into his room and crawled onto his bed. She had on an orange skirt so malhare knew which one she was. "Fa-fa? What do you need squirt?" Malhare knelt down to be at eye level with the doll, she giggled and held out a small plastic flower. Malhare tilted his head confused until she got up and placed it carefully behind his ear. The rabbit blinked, and chuckled in amusement. "Aw for me? Thank you" he hummed in amusement as the minirina giggled in joy. The rabbit stood up and in a bury of static was in his human disguise, one that had taken on the name Mal and was probably the closest the rabbit will ever get to really being himself out in public. The flower gifted to him was still placed in his Ginger locks and he was careful not to smush it under the beanie. When he went to pick up his phone he felt a new weight on his arm, he looked down and spotted the orange doll had latched onto his arm. "Hey? What are you doing now?" He lifted his arm so the doll was level with his face. She giggled and hopped onto his shoulder. "Hey, no, you can't come. I'm going on a date" he huffed, the doll pouted and crossed her arms. Malhare was short on time so he grumbled. "Look if I bring you back something sweet will that make you feel better?" The doll still looked unimpressed, malhare was about to just grab the doll and get her off when Marie suddenly opened the door. "Jackets done!" She announced while chucking the thing at him. Malhare barely had time to react as the purple jacket hit him in the face. "Shit! Sorry!" Marie called and Mal gave her a thumbs up to show he was fine. He quickly slipped the jacket on and grabbed his things. "Okay let's go" the man announced and made his way out the door, bouncing with excitement. He didn't realize that Fa fa hadn't jumped off, but he just assumed she fell during the chaos.
——————————
Marie drove Malhare to the small cafe they planned to meet at, it wasn't busy and they had a lovely little outdoor seat saved for them, Mal already spotted his date waiting there, Damien was dressed casual but nice, his blue scarf complimenting his short dark hair nicely. Marie smiled and nudged his arm, "you're whiskers are showing" she playfully warned and the man quickly buzzed the now heart shaped wires away. He jumped out of the car and before he closed the door Marie waved. "Have fun!" And then drove off, Mal took in a breath to calm himself then lightly jogged over to the table. Damien looked up when he spotted the ginger and smiled.
"Mal" he grinned and stood to hug his partner, the taller quickly snuck in a kiss on the forehead before they pulled away. "You look great." The shorter complimented, and Mal playfully responded,
"You too! I could eat you right up" he cood and reviled when the other man's cheeks were dusted with a light blush.
"Oh! You, hush!" he laughed as they both sat down.
As both chatted and looked over the menus and decided what to order, Mal felt something wiggle on his back. He thought it was just an itch until he heard a familiar and muffled giggle.
Malhare was glad Damien wasn't looking because he buzzed hard from an immediate just of stress. That was fa fa. He was sure of it. "Oh god Dangit son of a- he hissed under his breath and reached around and tried to grab the doll, but it crawled away. This continued on for longer than Mal would have liked, but he was glad the cafe was mostly empty, nobody would see him in his distressing situation. But his luck didn't last.
"Mal? Is something wrong?" Damien asked, looking up from his menu. Mal froze on the spot. His partner wore a calm yet concerned expression, and the rabbit couldn't just lie to a face like that. He squirmed in his seat for a moment before hissing, "promise not to freak out? I swear I didn't plan this" He quietly hissed. Damien nodded but now looked more concerned. "What's wrong?"
"Remember when I told you about those doll robots Marie's Dad had?"
"Oh, you said he built them right? The minirinas." Damien recalled. Mal nodded.
"Yah well, one somehow snuck into my jacket and it's being a pain" He quietly whined while Fa fa giggles mischievously. Damien's eyes widened and he nodded. He lowered his voice and asked. "Where is it now?" Mal pointed to a spot on his shoulder, there was a small bump where the doll was clinging onto his shirt. Damien quietly got up from his chair and snuck over, both men in tense silence as the situation continued. Damien slowly raised a hand Over the spot where the doll was. And quickly grabbed into it. Trapping the doll in place. Mal quickly moved to unzip his jacket and grab the doll from inside, with one quick move he pulled the squirming doll out and held it in front of him. Fa-fa made some fussing noises but was held firmly in Mals grasp. "Aha! You little gremlin! You're in so much trouble when we get home" he scolded. The doll made a small hissing noise and Mal gasped. "Don't give me that tone! You're the one who hitched a ride. Should have never offered to bring you dessert" his mini argument with the doll was interrupted by Damien holding back a snicker. Mal suddenly remembered he had an audience and flushed up a cheery red. "Damien! I'm really sorry I had no idea she was in there"
"You're adorable, both of you" he continued to snicker, now Mal was blushing even harder. Fa fa giggled and Damien moved his chair so he could sit down and get a closer look at the doll. "They look so much nicer than the pictures you showed me. They've got some advanced ai don't they?" He questioned, curiosity shimmered behind his eyes. Mal blinked, but sighed with relief that his partner wasn't upset.
"Yah, you can say that, this little rascal is Fa-Fa, she's got six sisters and a brother. They're all a handful I don't know why there's so many." He loosened his hold on the doll when Damien held out his hands to hold her, the orange minirina happily hopped into his open palms and gave a curtsy. Damien smiled. "She's very cute, I can see the appeal."
"Don't let that cute act fool ya, those things will find a way into everything" Mal smirked and shook his head. The doll glared at him causing Damien to laugh.
"I should probably call Marie, she's probably worried sick about this little guy being missing" Mal looked defeated, there goes his diner date. But Damien shook his head. "We can eat first. I don't see the harm in letting her stick around... as long as you promise to behave, okay Fa-Fa" Damien looked at the little doll, she nodded eagerly and jumped onto the table, sitting down with her legs crossed. Mal sighed and gave his partner a tired smile. "Sorry if I messed up our date." Damien hushed him with a quick kiss. "You didn't ruin anything." He reassured and went back to look at the menu.
Thankfully the rest of the diner went smoothly, the waitress did look a little confused at the sudden addition of a doll at the table but didn't ask questions. Malhare still ordered dessert for the little one since he did promise her one before hand, and it helped keep her calm since she knew if she was good she's get a treat. Soon enough they were waiting on a bench outside the cafe waiting for Marie to pull up. The two had plans to walk around the park, but both agreed it'd be easier to get Fa fa home first. The two men had their hands intertwined, Mal resting his head easily on his shorter partner, it was nice to be able to be this close when they usually were so far apart. Fa-fa was safely tucked between the nook of mals free arm, happily playing with his sleeve as she waited to get picked up.
"This is nice" Mal hummed happily. "We should do this more often."
"Agreed" Damien smiled, turning his head to nuzzle the crook of mal's neck. "I could get used to this"
"If only we didn't live so far apart huh?" Mal shrugged. "But it can't be helped I guess... wonder if I should finally try and get a drivers license?"
"It'd certainly make things easier so we didn't have to call your sister to pick you up" Damien chuckled. But he went quiet when he looked down to check on the doll.
"...where'd Fa-fa go?" Mal immediately tensed and looked at the arm where the orange doll was supposed to be, but she was gone, only thing left was the cake in the To-go box Mal held in his other hand.
"Shit!" He jumped up and looked around. "Where did she go??" She couldn't have gotten too far right? Malhare was trying desperately not to start buzzing from stress, but thankfully Damien found her. "Got her! She's over here" he called while scooping the doll up from a patch of grass.
"Oh thank god." Mal sighed with relief, this doll is going to give him grey hairs he swears it. Fa-fa giggles and turned to face Damien, making a small motion for him to lean in closer.
"Hm? Need something?" The man hummed and did as asked, and Fa-fa pulled out a small flower and placed it carefully behind Damien's ear. She stepped back with a giggles as Damien smiled. "aw! Thank you." He chuckled. Mal raised a brow. "I'm getting the impression she's trying to win over your silence."
"You say that like you didn't bribe her with that cake" Damien retorted and mal just shrugged. "I never said I was above bribery."
Both men sat back down and it wasn't long before Marie pulled up.
"She was with you the whole time?? I got worried over nothing" Marie sighed as she scooped up the doll and her to-go cake.
"Little rascal caused some trouble though" Mal grumbled, But Damien waved his hand.
"It's no worry, glad I got to meet her though. She's adorable" Damien had a way of keeping others calm that malhare loved dearly. Marie smiled and nodded. "Glad to hear that. I'll get out of your hair then. Nice seeing you Damien! Have fun" Marie waved as she got back into her car with the doll. As the two watched her drive away Mal not so subtly grabbed his partners hand. "So... where were we?"
Damien smiled
The park had a few lights hung on the trees making them twinkle beautifully in the dark. The two men casually strode through the pathway hand in hand, Taking in the sight in the evening light. They found a shaded spot under a tree and sat down, hand in hand, to quietly watch the sunset. They both sat close to each other, Mal turned his head to kiss the others forehead, and in turn Damien turned to nuzzle his face into the crook of mal's neck.
It was a nice day.
