mindcrackloveIt seems like I've been writing a lot of things for people lately. (Two stories for both Scaredy and Tibby. Three stories for Celeste.) I know some people don't have tumblrs so I decided to post my most recent story about Tibby here too.
Note: I'm sorry Tibby.
"Why are we out here again?" Etho asked as he was dragged along by Tibby through the twilight forest. Her hand was gripping his tightly as they walked under the colorful trees.
"We’re looking for glow in the dark bunnies." Tibby explained, shooting the redstoner (Ha, stoner *shot*) a smile. "I know their somewhere here, they’re just hiding."
Etho didn’t have the heart to tell her that he didn’t think there were any, she looked so happy at the thought of them and he’d hate to crush her dreams of finding one. So, he let himself be dragged along, responding to her ongoing bunny speech by nodding his head every so often.
After what seemed like ages, Tibby let out a gasp and let go of Etho’s hand. She spotted a white rabbit, eating some grass by the bottom of a hill. “BUNNY!” Racing towards it, she paid no attention to a warning Etho was giving and chased after it as the white ball of fur ran around the edge of the hill.
"Tibby, stop! It’s a hydra cave!" He called after her, but it was too late.
As she finally caught up to the rabbit, she picked it up and held it against her chest. Tibby was about to tell Etho that she had it when a loud sounding growl stopped her. Upon looking up, she saw the underbelly of a Hydra and the boss health at the top of her vision. “Oh fuck.”
One of the heads of the Hydra looked down at her and opened it’s mouth, preparing to shoot fire at her. She felt frozen in place and pressed the rabbit tightly against her chest.
Not a second too soon, Etho flew under the Hydra and picked her up. He barely avoided the fire from all of the heads and safely landed a few hundred blocks away. “Why didn’t you listen to me? You could have gotten seriously hurt.”
Tibby seemed to ignore him and looked down at the rabbit she was clutching. “You ok?”
Etho didn’t believe it, she cared about the rabbit more than her own safety. “Who cares about the rabbit?”
"I do." Her voice seemed like she had just issued a death threat. She took a few steps away from him. "Once you see him glow, you’ll know why I love him already!"
Tibby found a patch of darkness near a bush and set the rabbit down. “Alright, show Etho that you’re worth it.” Nothing, no even a spec of light came off the rabbit. “Why aren’t you glowing? I read that you guys glow because the plants you eat.” Disappointment flooded her voice as she petted the rabbit.
Etho looked down at the rabbit then back to Tibby. She looked almost heartbroken that she was wrong about them glowing. “Tibby…” He started but stopped, what was he going to say? Sorry you were wrong about rabbits that glow in the dark?
"Guess you were right, like always." Tibby stood up and walked away from both the rabbit and Etho. "Sorry for dragging you out here, I was stupid to believe that it was real. I’m always being a dumb ass and dragging you into things."
The redstoner frowned, he hated seeing Tibby sad about anything, but here she was thinking she was stupid compared to him. That was anything but true. Maybe she got a little crazy whenever it came to rabbits and such, that was just the way she was and one of the many reasons why Etho loved her. He would not stand for her calling herself stupid.
Looking around, he spotted a glow worm sticking to a nearby tree. Quietly, the ninja picked it off the tree and smashed it into a gel in his hand. Etho made sure she wasn’t looking before petting the rabbit with his glowing, slimy hand. He made sure it was really into it’s fur before taking out a cloth and wiping both his hand and the top of the rabbit fur off.
"Tibby, you were right! Look at it!" Etho called and hoped to sound as convincing as possible. She turned around, a smile quickly forming across her face.
"Bunny! You’re glowing!" Tibby rushed over and picked up the rabbit. "I knew you’d prove Etho wrong!"
Etho smiled and let out a chuckle. “Yeah, I guess you did.”
"Damn right." She agreed as she ran her fingers through the rabbit’s fur. "Wait, why is your fur sticky in some places?"
The redstoner felt himself pale a bit.
Note: I'm sorry Tibby.
