One day at the park, Wuzzy and Weazie were playing in the park with their friends. Pooh bear, Piglet, Tigger, Roo, Lumpy, Charlie, and Annie.
Charlie was a teenage adult who lives in the Hundred Acre Wood. He's friends with everyone in the woods. One day, he found a woozle named Weazie and befriended her. He showed her to the other residents of the woods. But they were afraid of her at first. Rightfully so, because woozles were known for stealing honey. But she was just a child and grew a liking to everyone. She told Charlie earlier that she was friends with Lumpy. A heffalump that the residents were afraid of at first. But Roo befriended him and showed that they aren't all bad. Since then he was a good friend to everyone.
Weazie later showed everyone her brother Wuzzy. He was a special doll, he could stretch his limbs, detach his body parts, and change color/pattern. They were all good friends with everyone, especially with Charlie.
Annie was Charlie's girlfriend, she was also good friends with everyone. She tells funny jokes to everyone. She is also friends with Weazie and Wuzzy. Charlie has a crush on Annie.
They were playing various games in the park. They decided to play a game with Wuzzy. "Wanna play hide and seek with one of your arms?" Charlie asked. They were gonna take one of his arms off and hide it somewhere. Then he had to look around and find it. "Yes, I like that game," Wuzzy said. "I don't think it's a good idea. What if you lose your arm?" Piglet asked, he was a bit hesitant to play that game. "Why don't worry Piglet, we'll find his arm again then we'll go home," Tigger said. They decide to play the game again before going back to the Hundred Acre Wood for the day.
At another part of the park, Jake the Tasmanian Devil was playing with his own stuffed woozle doll. Guess what, his name is also Wuzzy. He was a different one, he was colored in blue and yellow stripes like Jake's shirt. He also had stars on his cheeks. The Wuzzy doll Charlie and Annie had was colored yellow with a blue bowtie.
Jake the Tasmanian Devil is Taz's little brother. Taz is a character from the iconic Looney Tunes franchise. He is interested in his toys. He always looks up to his brother like any young sibling would. He has a sister named Molly. He only appeared in Taz's own spin-off TV show called Taz-Mania.
Charlie and Annie placed their Wuzzy's arm in a bush near a tree. They then tell him they're ready for him to find his arm. Wuzzy goes on to look for his arm. Weazie, Roo, and Lumpy follow suit. Meanwhile, Jake was playing catch with a plastic disc with his striped woozle. "Are you ready, star-cheeks?" Jake said playfully. "Whenever you're ready, Jacob." the striped woozle said. The three were coming closer to their friend's arm.
When Jake threw the final disc for the day, his Wuzzy ran and dived to catch it in the bush Charlie and Annie's Wuzzy's arm was. He came out with the disc he caught. But his arm was absent from his body too. It was in the bush with the other arm. Wuzzy and the striped Wuzzy reached into the same bush at the same time and took each other's arms. They look in confusion wondering why their arms weren't in the same color as their bodies. They put their mixed-up arms on and walked away with their friends oblivious that they got the wrong arms.
"Is there something wrong with your arm?" Jake said while walking back to his home with his doll. "I don't know, it's my arm. But the color is all wrong." Striped Wuzzy said. "Maybe your arm will get better tomorrow." They meet up with Jake's mom and dad. Their names are Jean and Hugh. They hop in their car with Jake's sister Molly and older brother Taz. They drive off to their grandparent's place. They were visiting from their home in Tasmania.
Hugh was Jake, Taz, and Molly's father. He plays golf and does stand-up comedy. Jean is the mother of the family. She loves doing stuff women like doing. Molly is the teenage sister of the family. She worries about her looks. Taz and Molly get into fights with each other.
Wuzzy got his striped arm on and Charlie asks about his arm. "Why is your arm stripey?" "I don't know, it fits me like a glove but I can't feel it on my side," Wuzzy replied. "Maybe we should go see Owl, Rabbit, and Gopher. I hope they know something about miscolored limbs."
Back at the Hundred Acre Wood, Wuzzy's striped arm was being examined by the three. Owl stares intently at the arm. "Can you move your arm?" Owl asked. "No, whenever I tried to move it, it won't move. Just dangles down." Wuzzy said now concerned about his arm. Meanwhile, at Jake's Grandparents' place, Striped Wuzzy's arm was moving uncontrollably. "Jake, what's going on with Wuzzy?" Molly said a bit scared of his out-of-control arm. "I have no clue, he just detached his arm while playing catch. I reattached his arm, but the color is wrong, and it seems as though he can't control it." Jake was clearly afraid of what could happen. Taz remembered where they got the doll from. He ran to the nearest computer and went on Google. Wuzzy originated from a custom Doll-making toy store. It had a deal with a company to sell elephant and weasel dolls. They were special because they could detach their parts, change colors and patterns. They could also stretch really far. The website stated that the dolls only work with their own parts. Any limb from another weasel doll they sold will not work properly on them. He takes the information from Google to Jake. They then believe that maybe they picked up another weasel's arm.
Back in the woods, Owl also concluded that his arm is someone else's. Charlie and Annie have access to the internet. The last place Wuzzy had his arm was at the park. They believed that someone else was playing with the same doll. They decide to go back to the park to try and look for it. But it was getting dark so they decided to wait until tomorrow.
Back over at Jake's place, the family concluded that Wuzzy's arm was wrong. They decided to go back to the park tomorrow. Later that night, both parties from Jake's to Charlie and Annie's are sleeping. But both Wuzzy's are wide awake. They are both unable to sleep because of their misplaced arms making their sleeping positions all out of whack. For minutes they were both moving their distanced arms around trying to get a good sleeping position. Eventually, they both struck a sleeping position after what felt like hours.
The next day, Charlie and Annie return to the park with their friends. They were on a search party for their friends' lost arm. Jake and his family arrived too. They do their own search for their Wuzzy's arm. They first went to the brush when this event first started. Jake and Charlie dig in the bush oblivious to each other's searchings. They come up empty-handed. At some point, while searching in the bush, they almost met hands. With that, their search around the park began.
Jake and Taz looked around, Taz was going fast and destructive. While Jake was going slow and taking the time to actually search. Charlie and Annie were searching with Pooh and Piglet. Owl was flying over the park to get a bird's-eye view of where his arm could be. Rabbit and Gopher were looking in holes and hard-to-reach places. Tigger, Roo, and Lumpy search by bouncing up into trees.
Eventually, they both gave up hope of finding their original arms. They searched and searched for hours. But they were unable to find their arms. They were both sitting on benches backed against each other. When Jake and Charlie stood up, they bumped into each other. They both fell over and got up to apologize for the collision. "Sorry about that, are you okay?" Jake asked. "Yes, I'm sorry, it's my bad," Charlie said still a bit disoriented from the impact. Jake was still sad about not being able to find Wuzzy's arm. "Why are you sad?" Charlie asked, noticing his sad expression. "I can't find my friend's arm. It was blue with yellow stripes like my shirt." Jake explained. Once the "blue with yellow stripes" entered his ears, he immediately turned to his Wuzzy. "I also lost my doll's yellow arm. You don't happen to know where it is, do you?" Charlie asked, seemingly finding a fitting puzzle piece. "Yes, we found it in a bush. It wasn't responding to his movements and was having spasms." The Tasmanian child explained further. He then got an idea, then Charlie got an idea. "Did we take each other's Wuzzy arms?" Jake and Charlie both asked at the same time. They each picked up their woozles to show each other their mismatched arms. "We did!" They both exclaimed, they were ecstatic to see their pieces reunite. Jake and Charlie detached their arms and swapped them back to their original bodies. They were both moving their arms that are now back together.
"I'm sorry for taking your arm." The striped one said."I'm sorry too." Wuzzy replied. "My name is Wuzzy." The striped woozle said. "Funny you said that, my name is Wuzzy too." Charlie and Annie's doll said. Both parties looked at each other in disbelief at the two of the same weasel dolls. Jake asks if they want to play with each other. They'll decide to play the Wuzzy arm game again. But they both said no to it. They didn't want to risk mixing up their limbs or losing them again. They instead play various other games. Like tag, hide and seek, and catch with Jake's plastic disc.
The day eventually ends with the sky turning orange by the sunset. The two parties say their goodbyes to each other. They turn in opposite directions before walking away. But then, both Wuzzys begin to miss each other. They turn around, run to each other and hug. Both parties stare at the two, it was an adorable sight. The stars on Jake's doll detach from him and become attached to Charlie's doll. They then switch color palettes with each other. They say goodbye to each other again.
But when Charlie and Jake take the dolls with them. They're both yelling about how they were being taken by the wrong guys. They switched places, here we go again.
This story was based on Media1997's Winnie the Pooh OCs Wuzzy, Weazie, Charlie, and Annie. Check her out on Deviantart. This story was based on a piece of fan art I made featuring Jake from Taz-Mania and Wuzzy. Media1997 claimed that Wuzzy has the power to change colors and patterns. I have never seen him drawn in any other pattern. So I decided to draw Wuzzy with blue and yellow stripes to match his shirt. I also put stars on his cheeks because, why not? After I finished drawing him. This idea crystallized were Jake's Wuzzy and Charlie's Wuzzy switch arms. The reason why they're two Wuzzys is that they're plush toys. Like Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, and even Lumpy. Excluding Owl, Gopher, and Rabbit because they're drawn like actual animals. Also more than likely, Gopher isn't in the book anyway. I believe a company somewhere out there is mass-producing toys of everyone. So somewhere out there, there could be more than one Pooh, Piglet, or Roo. I think they might've made more Tiggers. Chris probably got him from some giveaway or yard sale with the misconception about him being the only Tigger.
