[yeah dude. yeah]

I would appreciate your assistance with that, then. Though it's no rush. I have to bargain with Daffodil for a basket of lemons first.

Any time works for me. It doesn't sound like it'll take long. I don't want to jinx it, but that sounds like a pretty easy quest compared to what I'm used to.

Miss Daisy issued it. I had never gone to her for one before, but Blossom recommended her for this particular thing.

I didn't actually know Daisy did quests for anything except food.

I did not either, but there you have it.

That's good to know for any future quests. What are you getting from her?

Something to regularly give Styx cat traits.

[--oh my god. laughs loud enough to startle the mama bunny]

Do you think he'll actually use it?

I think he can be convinced.

I believe in your powers of persuasion. I think it'll be good for him. He was pretty calm the last time it happened; maybe he can use it whenever he's stressed out.

Yes. The calming effect and the morale boost for the rest of Lily were...noticeable.

[motions him quieter at this point, though; the nest is close]

[he gets quiet in an instant, his footsteps becoming lighter as they go, eyes flicking up into the trees in search of a nest]

[Lily's signing lessons are handy here, because Charon can indicate the last of the directions that can bring the nest into sight, wihtout expending any more flock magic...]

[Lethe quietly removes the baby bunnies from Charon's back and sets them near a tree with mama bunny; the rabbits all seem content to just sleep there while Lethe and Charon do their thing

he basically signs the equivalent of 'grab the whole nest?']

['how many do you want?']

[holds up one finger with an air of uncertainty???? he didn't think about this, he doesn't know]

[he shrugs and just nods; they can grab one egg before the mother comes back, surely]

[she might not even notice just one is missing anyways!

he does another check and signals 'cost clear?'; Charon has the dragon senses at the moment, so Lethe trusts that more than his own eyesight]

[he lifts his head to scent into the wind again, the crest of feathers on his head raised, all eyes fully open, alert

then nods. go go go]

[as soon as he gets the signal his wings snap fully open and he zips up into the air; he vanishes when he gets closer to the tree, though Charon can still tell where he is if he uses his shepherd tracking.

the stealth drops when he lands back next to Charon with a metal egg in his hand, which he holds up for Charon to see]

[jerks his head towards the treeline, GO GO GO GO

Lethe can hear the meatllic squawk of the scister mother coming back, not too far off]

[aw snap

ZIPS BACK TO THE TREELINE and scoops up the rabbit bag from where they safely left it so he can just tuck the egg in with the buns. it is not a smooth exit but it is a fast one.]

[YEET

they have successfully emerged from BABY ACQUISITION TRIP]

[good job team that was a successful distraction]

--Easy!

Congratulations on your new children.
