There is a small tree in the Nexus, with toy animals under it. Take one, they're free!
There are also a fox and a wolf sleeping underneath.
Taking one will turn your character into the animal that best fits their personality/appearance/whatever, until Christmas or whenever the mun gets bored.

He approaches warily, tilting his head, and examines the little toy animals beneath. A kitten, a puppy, a tiger, a crocodile, a gryphon, a thing with two heads and rather too many limbs... a giraffe, a camel, and assorted others. A nursery menegerie.
"Dru will love this!" Spike exclaims cheerfully, and reaches down to snaffle one of the little toys.

"...Yeh. ...Nice. ...Happen to see who put 'em here, did you?"
He wavers -he really wants that toy!- between greed and being given pause by the presence of the speaking fox. As clearly, that indicates something is Up.

There is a shimmer in the world, and Mr. Croup is standing there. "Why?"

"Mr. Cee! ...And then, is that...?"
Spike indicates the wolf, with a tilt of his head. "Never know you could do that! That's bloody brilliant. Well, I was going to take one- or possibly all- of 'em for Dru, but... I was a bit reluctant just in case it was some sort a' trap. You know- cunningly laid out bait 'n all."

He swiftly straightens up and leaps to the side as if expecting some sort of net to fall. When nothing happens- yet- he straightens up and grins, tossing the little animal up and catching it neatly in the palm of his hand.
"Well that wasn't so bad-"

Spike whips his head around in confusion, nearly stumbling over his oversized paws. ...Paws?
He feels the ruff on the back of his neck raise up and he glowers up with blue eyes at Mr. Cee, uttering an indignant little squawk-yowl.

Croup changes back into a fox. "Well, it can't do it to us. We're already animals. The fear of what comes out at night is where we began."

He grabs the little stuffed tiger and worries it til stuffing flies about, then gets distracted by his own tail for a moment.
At last he flops on the snow, chin on his paws and looks balefully over at the fox.

He looks pointedly at Mr. Vee, and then stamps his front feet into the snow, as if to say, "Big? He's bigger than me. And what the hell is that about!"
[ooc: he's a tiger _cub_ ;>]

"But I don't want to be stuck in this bloody form til I'm proper tiger sized. That'll take years! I haven't got- well okay, I have, but- Angelus'll be pissed right off! And who's going to clean the litter pan!
...Is it THAT bloody obvious I'm a 'cub'? I think your bloody toy's not working properly."

They've had all the time in the world to learn animal languages.
