[The feed clicks on and there just seems to be only Emizel there. Looking tired, in a frustrated kind of way.]

If there's anyone listening that has one of those rabbits too... I think I need help.

[He turned the screen and tilted it closer to the ground. There was certainly a Me Me Bunny Spirit with him, but it was being frumpy and ignoring him. In fact as soon as it noticed it was on screen it made a little 'hmph' squeak, lifted its head up and turned its back on it.]

See? It keeps doing that. Is this supposed to be normal? [Isn't even sure what he diiiid]

[Jack holds up a finger. He reaches off screen and produced a rabbit by the ears. The sky blue Meme Bunny does not seem to mind and is, in fact, sleeping.]

Does that answer your question? She's actually pretty shy most of the time.

[trademark_skull]

[Notices] ... Huh.

How come you're not like that? [Gets another off screen tsunny squeak]

[frostyfuntimes]

They all seem to have pretty distinct personalities...well, except maybe the Meow Wows. I've noticed most of them seem to hit various ranges of the same rollie-poley scale.

[trademark_skull]

So I got the one that's difficult.

[Great. Kind of wondering what actually determines all that though.]

[frostyfuntimes]

You're just that lucky I guess.

[trademark_skull]

This isn't luck..

[frostyfuntimes]

[He was being sarcastic, but he continues.]

Fate?

[trademark_skull]

... Maybe.

[Still a little unsure about that.]

[frostyfuntimes]

Look.

It's just a rainbow colored rabbit. Maybe if you feed it some carrots or give it a couple of Easter Eggs it'll stop acting like that. Rabbits can be grumpy, I would know.

[seasaltkeys]

Mine's usually full of energy. She doesn't really listen to me.

[There's an indignant squeak. Sure she does, when there isn't something more important to attend to.]

[trademark_skull]

I haven't seen much of him in--

[Hold on, both of them just said their bunnies were girls. Did that.. Probably going to have to test this out]

.... Do Spirits have genders?

[seasaltkeys]

I think they do. At least, Sparkle's pretty certain she's a girl.

I dunno if there's a way to check.

[trademark_skull]

I never gave it that much thought. I.. I mean, given how they are created...

[Looking at the Spirit again who was still off screen. It might've been paying some attention now] .... A-are you---

[Suddenly Emizel was slapped in the face with an ear and was given a somewhat long shout of squeaks. Probably in rough translation complain about how much of an idiot he is.]

[seasaltkeys]

I just figured I should ask when I made mine.

[He winces at the slap]

I guess she is.

[trademark_skull]

[Owowoww]

H-[crap he's about to do it again] She didn't need to do that!

[seasaltkeys]

Maybe she just wanted to make sure you got it. I think she's mad.

[shadearchivist]

You seem to have offended her somehow. Perhaps you could offer her treats and see if that makes her feel any better.

[It worked on Emizel, after all...]

I guess a slight jump is in order

[trademark_skull]

[H-hey.. >|]

[Rubbing the spot he got hit] How was I supposed to know... [Geez that hurt]

[shadearchivist]

[Okay he's taking pity on you.]

Why don't you ask Moxie to intervene on your behalf?

[trademark_skull]

I'm not really sure how well that would work.

[shadearchivist]

Hm. I admit that I'm probably not much help to you at this juncture.

[trademark_skull]

[Just sighed a little. Maybe he-she might calm down if left alone for awhile.]

[unrecovered]

[This shouldn't be as funny as it is. Good thing his visor is a very effective poker face.]

Apologize and give her chocolate. Did you name her yet?

[trademark_skull]

[Was worried he might show up.]

... Wouldn't that just be encouraging this more?

[unrecovered]

[You're the one that made this public, kid.]

Not if you manage to get to the bottom of the issue. If you've been calling her a guy ever since you got her, you have a lot to apologize for.

[Yep, he totally watched Emizel's conversation with Roxas.]

[trademark_skull]

[You could have just not looked! D8]

[Kind of makes just a nervous little whine. W-why were girls so troubling?]

[unrecovered]

[What's the fun in that?]

[And there's that soft spot for kids kicking in, dammit. His voice is neutral when he speaks again.] Look. Sit her down, make sure she knows you know what you did, apologize, promise not to do it again, and keep that promise. If you gave her a boy's name, you might need to change it.

It's not as hard as it sounds. Trust me.

[trademark_skull]

[Still pretty damn terrified. But no, not showing that to Wash. Not to him of all people.]

... That's all?

[unrecovered]

So far, yes. Try that and see how it works. If it doesn't, I'll have Melody talk to her for you.

[trademark_skull]

[Still hesitating a little anyway. This is something he's not good at even with normal people. It's not something he's even supposed to be doing.]

[Meanwhile Moxie did waddled in and gave Buster a questioning bark, although now she's back at shunning everyone. Confused Meow Wow is confused.]

[unrecovered]

Come on. The worst that can happen is that she stays grumpy.

[trademark_skull]

Hm, I guess so.

[unrecovered]

Are you going to try?

[trademark_skull]

[Oops, he snapped.] I'll get to it!

[unrecovered]

[Look at how completely unfazed he is by your temper.] The sooner you do, the sooner you'll have a non-grumpy bunny.

Unless you just want Melody to talk to her.

[trademark_skull]

I don't... I don't need your help.

[Getting help from Wash was probably the last place he wanted it from.]

[unrecovered]

It's not my help; it's Melody's.

[Details, but still. Melody leaps onto Wash's shoulder and into view, looking down at the communicator. Someone wants to talk with her?]

[trademark_skull]

[One of Buster's ears perked for a second, and she peeked over to the side. However afterwards she went right back to facing away.]

... I think she's still not interested.

[buymedumplings]

No, I don't have a Meme Bunny.

[Bolin still looks thoughtful though.] But, all of the different dream eaters seem to have their own little personality quirks. I wouldn't say it's something you actually have to worry about.

Maybe it's just not used to you yet.

[trademark_skull]

[Kind of just watching her for now, except she still doesn't want to talk to him.]

... I may just need to give it time. [Or, something like that. Right?]

[buymedumplings]

You can try what we did with Master Eraqus's toximander. Bribing with treats seems to work most of the time.

[trademark_skull]

... Bribing her could make her act even more like this though.

[buymedumplings]

Not if you use it right. Rewarding her when she acts how you want her to for example.

[trademark_skull]

[Blink.]

I didn't really think of it as that..

[But what if she doesn't ever act the way he wanted?]

[buymedumplings]

Yeah.

Or maybe it could just take some time for her to get used to you. You'd be surprised how far just patience will get you.

[trademark_skull]

I guess it's just waiting and seeing what happens, then.

[buymedumplings]

Pretty much. Sorry I can't offer something more speedy.
