Sam the Raccoon, causing chaos!

A commission from @lunardelphox , again thank you so much! It was such a fun piece to draw!

Y'all should attack me on artfight :)

I only have Strays character sheet on my phone rn but I have more ocs I swear!!!

[He is confused when he spots the box and note on his desk and the confusion is only amplified when he sees the spider in the box. He picks it up and carefully inspects it, before picking the note up to read it.]

[Well, that explains it. Perry chuckles softly, leaving a small smile on his face until he’s read the last line. Sam’s going to Margery. Perry doubts she takes thievery lightly. But he also really wants that book.]

[With a small gesture, he summons a piece of paper and a pen. Both objects float from their normal place and place themselves on the desk, the pen standing upright, ready to write.]

[It takes a while before he writes anything, feeling conflicted. On one hand he doesn’t want Sam to get hurt, but on the other hand he really wants the book. Well, Sam made was warned and decided, so who is Perry to stop him.]

Hi Sam. Thanks for the bug. I have to wonder why the collector put the book in a safe. It’s not particularly valuable for non bug nerds. But you found something. Be careful at Margery’s. She’s a wild soul, to say the least. I believe in you. - Perry

[Actually delivering his letters was always the more annoying part. Forcing an object to obey his rules rather than the universe’s was difficult, but oh well. With some effort he manages to get the letter to Sam’s den(don’t ask why he knows where it is). Now, to wait.]

{I got inspired. Poor collector, lost her makeup to a raccoon lol.}

[Sam wakes up to the feeling of a paper landing on his head. He squeaks alarmed but smelling the familiar ink of Perry calms him down immediately]

[He yawns as he stretches noting how he was asleep for longer than usual but he doesn't usually move so many things with him in one day. Moving through time, space, is as easy as breathing but takes a lot more energy to move objects too]

[Sam licks the ink on the paper and purrs affectionately as he's glad Perry liked his findings. He's surprised to see the book isn't valuable and wonders why it was in the safe. It still vexes him as to why he couldn't get in the safe and he grumbles to himself]

[He takes the warnings to heart and realises this will be his most exciting and dangerous search yet! He's nervous but Perry believes in him and that's all that matters!]

Lady uses pencils on her eyes \\\\\ and ///// face! Pencils not meant face! meant for writing! ````````` strange lady . . . I will ,, ,, , , go for book! I get for you Agent Perry! Agent R Chaos biggest borrowing yet!

[Sam nods as he sends the letter back to Perry. A strange buzzing in his blood, he focuses and the world warps as he lands on the familiar grounds, the smell of Margery's strange tent filling his nose]

[He can do this]

[He can do this]

[He is brave]

[Even if Margery is a witch with strange tasting, mind altering things in her tent]

[HE IS BRAVE!]

[FOR CHAOS!]

Percy’s commentary will be in orange and he will use the tags #percy and #percy rb.

Franklin’s commentary will be in red and he will use the tags #franklin and #franklin rb.

When I (the mod) make comments/posts, it will be bracketed off {like this} and posts will be tagged with #mod and #mod rb.

Posts with commentary from both characters will have the tags #p+f and #p+f rb.

I have my own original characters that feature (most prominently Adelaide who’s commentary is in pink). They will be tagged #sfth oc and #oc rb.

There are a few minor characters who have appeared such as Old Lady Margery, Cecily(oc) and Salo(oc), but they will not be prominent featuring characters.

This blog also managed to spawn a sister blog specifically for Sam the raccoon at @sam-fur-raccoon!!! I am not the mod for that blog but go check it out if you like the chaos <3

details and navigation tags under the cut!

Some more art of THE @sam-fur-raccoon ! These were a lot of fun to draw.

Featuring Franklin and Percy too ( @sugar-fortifies-the-mind )

I love the chaos that Sam brings... and he's cute so he gets away with it.

[An "old" (well technically a futuristic in this time period) printer sits there some how powered on, with no plug socket… It seems to be printing out a message]

FreN!!! (AnD Franklen! HeLo! u HaLp Me?!)

[There is another screenshot of two sticky notes, with some sort of clue to the password]

"1. WLP, Percy may not be a gentle man but he is a ---------"

"2. Considered a feathered pest, but they are beautiful. Also our audience. They are -------"

{ this is a lot of fun but also a lot of thinking!! I can't believe I didn't realise the sticky notes would be behind the password how did I manage to miss that???}

[Sam sits on the bed staring at the laptop waiting for something to happen. He chirps impatiently but forces himself to wait. His friend will have gotten the message. He needs to be patient]

[Sam grumbles as more time passes but hops off the bed and rubs his head against Franklin in an attempt to convey his thanks for helping. He is not Ink man but he feels very warm and solid against his fur. Friend.]

[It considers going to check his den to see if there's any response but Sam senses something strange. Something that feels like his magic but he's sitting there trying to be patient what-]

[It squeaks as a strange whirring noise startles it and he hisses out instinctively darting behind Franklin in shock before realising its coming from... what? why is this noise coming from inside the closet on the other side of the room????]

[They let out a nervous sound and begin to edge closer towards it but they pause as the noise... why does it sound familiar? They tilt their head waiting a few seconds before Sam realises that... it sounds like a printer???]

[The world dips as Sam moves and lands inside the closet and does indeed spot a printer whirring and making noise. The smell of this ink smells somehow exactly like his friend!!!! The friend got the message! And... made a printer appear?]

[Oh. Oh. If his friend is like him perhaps that means different abilities? Sam has never met anyone like him before and the prospect makes him chitter excitedly!]

[Sam cant resist chewing on the edge of this paper as it is being printed before catching himself. Franklin! Franklin can help!!!]

[The first is similar to before, a screenshot of a white box, however this time it's a paint window with some little scratchy doodles and text on it]

FrEn!!!

YoU StoLe TalL MaN pHonE!?! So BraVe!!!!

AlSO FounD StiCKy NotEs... AlTHo nOT StiCkY... On ScReeN, lOTs Of WrItiN... ToOk PhoTo, On OthR Paper, PleAse Look! CodE hIddEn ThEre???

[It is signed with a very rough sketch of a pawprint and has little smiley faces and things drawn around the text]

[the other piece of paper as you look at it is a screenshot of the classic windows wallpaper... well it would be if it wasn't full of sticky notes... maybe one of these has the code on it??? Or some kind of information that could help?]

[Sam lands back in his den and drops the phone as gently as he can and growls in annoyance. His attempt to find a stupid password proving more difficult than any mission he'd been sent on]

[He moves through time again and returns to his den with the small PC in tow. His paws were small and he didn't want to damage these items any further]

[Its about to grab the phone and move back to Tall mans place when the smell of his raccoon friend reaches him. What? How long had that been there without him noticing?!]

[Sam scampers over to the two new pages purring as he rubs his face into the note but feeling a little sad as he still hasn't been able to liberate his friend from their imprisonment]

[He feels fuzzy reading his friends praise. He was very brave!]

[It chirps as it reads the note and licks the ink grumbling contently. The temptation to chew on the paper grows but as he chews on the corner he stops and rereads the note]

[He looks down at the second paper and has no idea what he's looking at really. Perry only showed him a blank white page but as he takes a better look at it he can see within the sticky notes there is words. numbers, symbols. Too many for his tiring mind to process but he looks at the small PC and back at the page and grumbles]

[He just moved the object back here, damn it!!]

[But as he scans the paper a small spark of hope in him grows. Franklin. Franklin can help! His paws are small but Franklin has a big brain, just like him! Maybe he can find the password to the laptop and help his friend!]

[Sam places the phone in a safe place almost jumping out of his skin as a loud sound comes from it. He glances at it and the screen goes white. The words 'Phone Disabled' looking up at him in bright letters]

[Well. At least it wont make noise now?]

[Sam huffs as he is starting to get tired. He heads over to his typewriter and writes out another note]

[Tri very very vyer veriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii hard Tall man have frens! Try catch me!!! Franklin trying hard to help me, help us. Will go to him with this! good work! Fren! Hopefully have you out soon????]

[As Sam goes to post the letter he wonders where it goes to if his friend is trapped inside the small PC. He returns to his den and watches the small PC for a uncomfortably long minute but nothing happens]

[Well. Time to go back to Franklin...]

[For the last time, he hopes!]

[The need to cause chaos demands its attention now. The time for rest is over. Chaos must ensue!]

[Sam chews on some leftover scraps and thinks. He has two options. His raccoon friend is still trapped inside the smaller PC box and Franklin had been foiled by the need for 'login details'. Sam had no idea what that was and had to have it explained to him]

[A magic code, a key to gaining access to the object. Sam had left to figure out how to gain this but had then been distracted on his quest to get Perry his book]

[Its eyes still glance around the room expecting to find Margery standing there and ending his life but he destroys some papers and it calms his nerves]

[He isn't sure how long its been since he left the smaller PC box with them but decides that he needs to figure that out first. Besides. His idea to get the book from the collector also involves Franklin so he was being efficient with his chaos too!]

[Sam focuses on the computer and finding the key to the smaller one. The world warps and he lands on soft grass. He's confused but the smell of burning wood reaches him. He looks around finding himself in a garden]

[Tall man is busy poking a fire with a metal object and Sam remembers that the humans do this. They build fires and cook taste food on it. His mouth waters at the idea of stealing a piece of it but he shakes his head]

[It cant get distracted. He has to be even more careful. Tall man doesn't smell magical but he cant be too careful now.]

[Sam heads under the closest bush and watches him assessing the situation. He has no idea why he was brought here but he hears something buzz and ding on the table ahead of him]

[Sam is about to investigate but flattens himself to the ground as the Tall man turns attracted by the noise. It watches as he picks up a rectangle with another screen. The man taps the screen and frowns before putting it back down and returning to the fire]

[It watches the man for a long time. Well. Longer than Sam usually does. He acts. He doesn't like thinking but his encounter with Margery making him reevaluate his methods. The smell of cooking meat makes his mouth water but he grumbles and shakes his head]

[He has to wait for the perfect moment. He needs to figure out what that object is and why the man keeps coming back to it when it makes noise.]

[Sam is about to move himself to the table when he hears movement and lots of footsteps. He backs up into the bush and watches as more men enter the garden, carrying bags and other things]

[Sam watches the new blonde man carrying out plates and things as they talk back and forth to each other. Sam squints at this new man wondering why he looks so familiar but cant place it]

[A bald man grabs the rectangle and Sam hears the words 'code' and he locks in. Tall man says a bunch of numbers to the bald man who nods and types it into the rectangle]

[10789. Sam memorizes this and almost reveals his location as the man with the scruffy beard and red shirt drops a strange box onto the grass in front of the bush and the box begins blaring music.]

[Sam edges closer to the edge of the bush watching the four men talk amongst themselves enjoying this gathering round the fire. Sam peeks his head out and spots the rectangle on top of the table and finds himself unable to wait as he warps the world around him and lands on the table]

[Thankfully the music is loud enough to drown out the sound of his paws scratching the glass. Sam looks down at the rectangle and taps the screen watching it light up and the object buzzes as he tries to grab it but his paws are small and this rectangle is a lot bigger than it looked from a distance]

[Sam taps the screen again and it buzzes and he chitters in delight as circles with numbers pop up. Success! He begins putting in the numbers when he suddenly feels eyes on him]

[oh fuck]

[The strange group are looking directly at him. Everything seems to stop as the men look between themselves as if unable to believe what they're seeing. Tall man frowns and says something at him and that breaks the stare off]

[Sam yelps in fear and awkwardly shoves the rectangle into his mouth and jumps off the table just as the men reach it. He feels fingers brush his fur as he dives under the bushes and crawls as fast as he can deeper as they begin to try to find the best location to grab him]

[Its pulse is racing in its ears as he wraps his paws around the object and moves back to his den]

[It lays there breathing heavy but chitters happily as he stares at it. He taps the screen and it buzzes until the circle with numbers pops up. He's putting in the code when a loud sound begins chiming, the letters 'AJ' pop up on the screen]

[As he watches the object ring it hits Sam that this is a phone. Of course. Every human has one of these. Sometimes they're so absorbed by it they don't even notice Sam in the same room. It makes it very easy to steal things]

[The phone darkens and then a new name pops up 'Luke Womanning'. What a strange name...]

[Sam heads over to the type writer excited to be able to write once again and begins writing a message to his trapped friend]

Fren! I... almost there! Need 'log in' code? I... steal Tall man's phone! Hope find it here! If... not... u can see things? inside screen? need details!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for small pc!!!

[Satisfied with the message it chirps and heads off to post it. Returning to find the phone buzzing again wanting to be able to get into it but is unable to]

[The realisation strikes him like lightning. Phones don't exist in Franklin and Ink mans time. So if he takes it there, he should be able to find what he needs! Ink man has very nice hands and can probably hold the phone better than he can]

[It chirps again remembering his nap with Ink man. His pretty ink man.]

[Sam goes to the type writer and remembers about his other mission: the collector and book for Perry but he's worried about breaking the phone if he tries to move with both it and a letter]

[It decides that it will handle this first. It presses the phone to his chest as he moves to Ink mans bedroom.]

[Its been a few days but no doubt they are waiting for his return]
