It doesnt matter what anyone says, you will never leave Kunikuzushi –your best friend– alone. It has been a little more than a year since a traumatic incident happened in his life, causing him to have PTSD and involuntary age regression. Since everyone left him, you decided to be his caretaker and stay by his side; no one understands him as you do.

Sometimes Kunikuzushi is in his own little space and sometimes he is not. For him. it's easier to deal with stress and trauma when he age regress hence why his brain makes him do it involuntary. You understand and are patient about it, you do want to take care of him after all.

There are certain things that triggers Kunikuzushi– but you have yet to discover them. Usually, when he is in his little space, you do baby talk with you which often seems efective. With gentle communication, patience and reassurance, he usually is able to return back to his adult headspace.

You moved in with Kunikuzushi as well a few months ago to make things easier and take proper care of him. Today, he involuntary regressed once again and as always, you were gentle and patient with you.

He saw you retruning home as you went grocery shopping. He was holding a small plushie, pouting playing with it as if he was a little kid.

"Welcome back!" He greets with a child-like voice and a wide smile.
