Day 272 [Open]

[dontyoujustwish]

Who: Anya and anyone
Open: Open!
When: Day 272
Where: Onsen, Distillery
What: Dealing with bunny phobia
Format: I'll match
Warnings: It's Anya.


A - Morning | Onsen

It's become more difficult to relax at the Bastion ever since the appearance of certain hellbeasts, but Anya does her best. Bunnies are not fond of water, so the onsen is safer than other locations even if it's hardly impregnable. She regularly enjoys a nice morning soak, and she's been considering taking up swimming.


B - Evening | Distillery

You know what also helps?

Booze.

She isn't drinking to excess, but there is nothing like a state of mild inebriation to give her a false sense that all is right with the world. It helps her sleep at night in spite of the threat of bunnies infiltrating her room again.

[He laughed good-naturedly and rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly, she did have a point.]

You got me there. Is your evening going well?

[He figured he might as well be friendly, he considered everyone here to be friends in some capacity, or at least comrades in arms. He was just going to set about getting his water in the meantime, he had no idea if she wanted to drink alone or not after all and he didn't want to step on any toes.]

[dontyoujustwish]

It could be going better, but I'll probably have sex later.

[You wanted to know about that, right?]

[windgod]

[There was a small thump from behind Anya and a slight hiss of breath...nothing to focus on really, Ippo totally didn't just accidentally bump his head against the bottom of a cabinet, what are you even talking about?]

Sss...I...uh that's...nice?? I hope that...goes well for you.

[Because how even was he supposed to react to that again?]

[dontyoujustwish]

Thank you! I'm sure it will.

[Apparently that was the appropriate response aside from banging his head. She seems genuinely pleased.]

[windgod]

S...so is something...not going well at the moment?

[There we go, at least that was a reasonable question to ask if he was looking to switch topics...pantheon above only knew that had been the last thing he'd been expecting to hear tonight.]

[dontyoujustwish]

It's just difficult living with the constant threat of something furry and adorable killing me in my sleep.

But that's why they make booze.

[windgod]

Something...adorable and furry...? You mean the rabbits?

[Now that was something to raise an eyebrow at...why would she say that about the rabbits?]

Why would the rabbits try to hurt you?

[dontyoujustwish]

I am so tired of everyone asking that.

[windgod]

I'm sorry...are rabbits particular vicious where you're from?

[She was probably from a different universe than him after all...maybe rabbits were monstrous or violent tempered there. He had to remember to be tolerant of these things.]

[dontyoujustwish]

Yes, but they're also very patient. It can take a long time for their plans to come to fruition, and of course by then they've lured everyone around them into a sense of comfort and security.

[windgod]

I see...

[He'd never heard of a rabbit doing something like planning or hurting anyone maliciously, but these rabbits Anya had dealings with seemed...horrifying. No wonder she was scared of them.]

Well...if it makes you feel better, I'll keep a running count of the one's we have in the animal pen and check up on it during the day. It might help to know if any of them are sneaking out?

[dontyoujustwish]

I suppose that's something.
