Just a box...

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[No really, that's just an inconspicuous little white box sitting on top of the inconspicuous desk to the side of the lobby. No need for inspection or anything. Sure, there's smoking coming out of the handle openings, but come on, how suspicious is that in a place like this?]

[The small boy shall poke the box!]

!

[The box jumps in surprise and settles once more. A pair of beady little eyes appear at the handle hole that faces the boy.]

?

[sonofstorms.livejournal.com]

[He peers inside at the two little eyes. Oh no! something is alive and on fire in there! He's just going to open up the box.]

Re: ?

[It's a little snowshoe rabbit, with a lit cigar. He seems to be smiling. Not his usual reaction to having someone confiscate his box, but he must be in a good mood.]

Re: ?

A rabbit?

[He hunkers down to the rabbit and reaches out a hand.] Hello bunny. Who left you in here with a lit cigar?

Re: ?

[Jack stares at the child with his huge eyes as he puffs on the cigar, held awkwardly in his small furry paws. An ear flickers in greeting. Never met this child before, he's quite sure.]

[sonofstorms.livejournal.com]

You smoke? That's bad for you, bunny. [Gentle attempt at petting.] I'm Little John.

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[B-but.. cigar... Seems Little John is a good kid, and Jack can't quite state his name. He puts the cigar out on the lobby table since John seems to dislike it. Not the smartest place to put it out.]

Jack-rabbit~<3

[Elisa stares at the box quizzically. The smell of cigar smoke causes her nose to wrinkle somewhat]

:)

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[The box seems to be staring back. Jack feels nostalgic somehow.]

[elisula.livejournal.com]

[....She can't shake the feeling that she's being watched. But from such a tiny box? What could possibly be inside, with that heavy smell of smoke surrounding it...?]

[Elisa takes a few cautious steps forward and crouches down for a better look]

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[A small velvety nose pokes out of the box, wiggling as Jack tries to figure out who it is by scent.

If The Boss could see him now. She would be ashamed at his stealth tactics, or lack thereof.]

[elisula.livejournal.com]

[Elisa jumps slightly when the small nose pokes itself out of the box. How could this small animal stand staying in there with that awful cigar smoke? The girl lifts her hand and places it right in front of the nose, allowing it to pick up her scent.]

...Don't you want to come out of there? Are you scared, maybe...?

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Jack remembers now. It's that chick that stole one of his eye patches! Well, such was Ursula.]

[elisula.livejournal.com]

[Hesitating just slightly, Elisa pulls her hand back. She can sense that something is wrong]

...What's wrong, little guy?

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Something's different about her this time though, it's as though she is not that person, even though her scent is the same. The nose appears at the slot again, sniffing, and a paw comes up as well.]

[elisula.livejournal.com]

[A rabbit, maybe?]

Can... can I see you now? [Elisa runs a finger along the edge of the box, letting him know her intent is to lift it.] Please?

[sweetlilmonster.livejournal.com]

OoH!

[little vamp stares at the smoking box.]

Strange.... should I get some water? It could catch fire!

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[A barely audible squeak calls from inside the smoking box as Jack tries to express his opinion of such a terrible idea. The box poots out a piece of paper from one of the handle openings.]

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

[Is that box... Hal blinks.] T-this could provoke a fire!

[He doesn't see any extinguisher near, so he examines the box, worried]

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Yes that box...]

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

[It doesn't look like it's on fire. Should he open it? He taps against it with a finger.]

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[It shuffles a little, then falls still once more.]

RABBIT DADDDD YOU CAME BACK!!!

[snakehermit.livejournal.com]

[Snake glances down at that box. He's not fooling for it.]

Re: RABBIT DADDDD YOU CAME BACK!!!

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Jack glances back from inside the sanctity of his safe haven. Well, two can play at that.

~Staaaaaaaaaaaare~

[snakehermit.livejournal.com]

[Snake crouched down to the box. He plied it open and glanced inside.]

Hnnh~ What're you doing here?

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[What do you mean what Jack is doing here? He remembers this Dave and their bonding in cardboard boxes.]

[snakehermit.livejournal.com]

[David reached into the box and curled his fingers up under Jack, tugging him out. He sat down and placed the rabbit in his lap, tenderly scritching behind his ears.]

[He remembers their bonding, too.]

Human Son :D (delayed reaction)

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Awww yeah, this is great. Jack wonders how Dave's been since the last time they met, but how should he get something like that across to a human. Hmnn well, maybe Dave would like this cigar.]

8D Welcome back!

[hall-patrol.livejournal.com]

[Something smells like... smoke. BUT WHERE IS IT COMING FROM? Eventually the box catches Alek's eyes and he approaches cautiously.]

A box? What is a box doing here?

:D Thanks, just back for a bit.

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Oh man, it's that guy again. Dealing with him as a human was more hassle than it was worth. Speaking of his human form, Jack wonders if that half of him is still wandering around in this place. He hasn't seen him in months.

Back to the problem at hand.]

LIIILY :)

[nomnomsnakes.livejournal.com]

[OH NO THERE'S SMOKE COMING FROM THAT POOR BOX.]

[He immediately dumps water on it, cause he can.]

Re: LIIILY :)

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[The box shudders as if enraged. Suddenly, the soggy cardboard box flies up into the air and slaps Snake in the face.]

[nomnomsnakes.livejournal.com]

[He just blinks, before seeing the rabbit. Oh.]

Huh. Haven't seen you in awhile. Sorry about that.

[He pats the rabbit on the head.]

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Damnit, Snake. Grumpy rabbit is grumpy.]

YOU LIVE 8DDDD

[actuallyhornets.livejournal.com]

[Pain lifts up the side of the box, grimacing.]

You're going to suffocate if you keep on smoking, you know.

^^; probably not for long

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!]

what's the occasion?

[actuallyhornets.livejournal.com]

Want a carrot?

[He hasn't had lunch yet, he has some to spare.]

<3

[comsicboobs.livejournal.com]

[She sees the strange box and lifts it up.]

A rabbit?

[It sorta reminds her of that rabbit man she had seen a while back.]

Re: <3

[nakedrabbit.livejournal.com]

[Jack looks up from his cigar to acknowledge his visitor. Oh hi there. Maybe his box is more suspicious than it's meant to be.]

[comsicboobs.livejournal.com]

[She gently pet the rabbit on the head.]

I never thought I'd ever meet a rabbit with a taste for cigars.
