Case 111 [Action]

[manofgnee]

[There's a party today in Xanadu! It's the day before Euphie's 18th birthday, and in an effort to avoid any sort of bad curse, Hanna's throwing her party on Sunday.

There are big picnic tables set up with all sorts of snacks and treats. One table is devoted to desserts, especially the big birthday cake. Hanna even managed to pull through and make cookies, despite his overall inability to cook or bake.

There's music, and speakers, and a myriad of decorations, including balloons, paper lanterns, streamers, and confetti. Hanna's spent the good part of the past week planning this party.
The grill is set up, and the present table is ready as well. Hanna himself is lounging in one of the chairs, a large box in his lap. Every so often, the box moves a bit, and Hanna smiles and sticks a finger through the hole in the top of the box.

Yep. Everything is set for one awesome party.]

[Noticing the hole, but she doesn't want to embarrass him by saying anything. Yes, she still hasn't figured it out.] Is this one from you?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Uh huh. Sorry about the hole...promise, though, it makes sense.

[He smiles.]

Go on, open it!!

[deadly_legacy]

[She takes the box and there is a surprised expression on her face. The balance of weight inside isn't what she was expecting. With one arm carefully holding it, she removes ribbon and paper with the other.]

...Did it just move?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Maybe...

[deadly_legacy]

[She blinks at first and theeeeeen it clicks into place and she hurries to open it up.] Tumbles! [Not too loud. She doesn't want to scare him.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Hanna grins as Tumbles yips happily, immediately jumping on Euphie and licking her face once he's out of the box.]

[deadly_legacy]

[She lets the box fall and holds on to the puppy, giggling.] Hello! I'm happy to see you too. [And a little barking. Just a little.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Tumbles is very happy to see you too, Euphie! He barks a little more, wriggling in Euphie's arms.]

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, Hanna, are you sure? [Looks over at her friend even as she snuggles tiny, cute, adorable puppy!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[He nods. All kids have to leave home someday, right...?]

I'm sure. Tumbles really likes you...and I know he's in good hands.

[deadly_legacy]

He's so cute. [Petting. Petting. Petting!] Thank you, Hanna. [Very fond!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I knew you two would be perfect for each other! I'm glad you like him.

[Tumbles yips happily again, snuggling up to Euphie. Yes, he's quite happy.]

[deadly_legacy]

I do. [And hopefully her roommates won't mind! They were good about her having Ken's pets for awhile. And Tumbles is just a puppy! Who could not love a puppy.]

I think he's happy to be out of that box.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I tried not to keep him in there for too long...

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, I'm sure you didn't! [Wasn't trying to make you feel bad!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

The original plan was to just tie a bow around his collar...but that seemed too obvious...

[deadly_legacy]

I think you did it perfectly. [Would have been just as happy with the bow probably.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

He slept all the way over, too...

[deadly_legacy]

He seems very happy and well rested. [Kisses Hanna's cheek in thanks.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[And Hanna goes bright red, smiling and mumbling out a thank you.]

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, no, thank you. [Smiles and snuggles puppy!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Said puppy then makes a happy noise similar to one of Hanna's weird little happy noises.]

[deadly_legacy]

He's so cute.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you like him...you two are perfect for each other!

[deadly_legacy]

Is it all right if I go introduce him to Lelouch, Nunnally, and Suzaku? [Who would probably be there!]
