1.1.01.01.024: staring at the sun.

[needshumility]

[Eddie bounces on to camera. He looks just like the icon. Except he's got a black and white barcode down his spine, complete with numbers. This rabbit looks exceptionally excited.]

The barcode! [Much to Eddie's misfortune, he's only understandable to other animals. To anyone else, it's just rabbit noise.] Take a picture of the barcode!

I'm the Last Rabbit! Best flood ever.

[pause]

Wait. The Last Rabbit's a girl.

[quick! Change the subject!]

Victor? You alright?

Jane?

[Eddie was currently sat on his bed in a big fluffy ball,] Over here.

[She really was a bouncing goat. He couldn't help but think it was actually a little brilliant.]

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[She shuffled over, attempting to walk and not bounce as much. It didn't work as well as she thought.]

Huh. You're not as impressive as I thought.

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[He was a little amused at her bouncing.]

I imagine the impressive thing is that it's the last one, rather than... actually being impressive.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

Maybe. Where do you want to go? [She shifted her hooves a bit anxiously.]

I don't like being in here. I might break something.

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Um... I don't really know.

[He paused and bounced across the room, picking up his merit book in his mouth and waving it at her,] We could try the CES?

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[She nodded and shuffled backwards, out the door.] Good idea.

At least that will be safer.

[She bounced a bit once she was in the corridor.] Did someone offer to take a picture of your barcode?

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

Not yet, no. [He frowned a little. If a Rabbit could frown.]

Someone told me there was a lion.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[She tilted her head to the side and knocked her horns against the side of the corridor.]

You should stay with me, then. [She started to hop down the corridor.]

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

I plan on it. A whole lion.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[She paused at the stairs and then looked to the lift.] Better idea. [She continued on to it.]

A whole lion? What did you expect? Half a lion?

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[Eddie followed along, much more slowly, but looked up at the lift. Everything was so much more intimdiating from down here.]

How are we going to call it? Or get it to go anywhere?

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[Jane paused, trying for a moment to push her hooves up against it. It took a bit of fumbling, but she finally hit the right button.]

Just like that. [There was no mistaking the hint of arrogance there.]

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[He would have rolled his eyes if he could.]

Ah, so simple. If you're a bouncing goat, perhaps.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

...if only people at home could see this. [She headed inside when the doors opened and waited for him.]

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[Eddie laughed and jumped inside,] The lift, or us as these animals? Because I imagine they'd mostly just laugh at the latter.

A lot.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

The latter. [She stared at the panel thoughtfully (if a bouncing goat could be thoughtful) and jabbed a hoof at it.] That should get us...somewhere.

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[He huddled in a corner of the lift and scratched at his ears a little,] Somewhere. Better than here?

[pause]

Jane. I'm a girl. [He still couldn't quite get past this.]

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[Jane also wished she could roll her eyes.]

Yes, well, you did announce it to everyone. [She waited and, when the doors opened to a floor they didn't want, she jabbed at the panel again.]

So it's your fault if you're embarrassed.

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[If a rabbit could shrug...]

But it's still a serious point. I'm a woman!

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

It's not serious at all. [She fixed him with a long look.]

Is there something wrong with that?

Re: Private

[needshumility.livejournal.com]

[He shrugged,] Nothing really wrong with it.

It's just weird. If you're me.

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

If you're you. [The doors opened again and she hopped out.]

How do you plan on unlocking the door?

Re: Private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

[He had been clutching his merit book between his paws, and then held it up in his mouth, mumbling a little,] Take my item!

Re: Private

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

[She leaned down, keeping the book between her hooves and then bringing it into her mouth. It took some maneuvering, but she managed to unlock the door and open it before she dropped the merit book on a rock.]

There. The CES.
