CHARACTERS: Netherlands [personal profile] handelaar and Takeshi [personal profile] throwsdown
LOCATION: Takeshi's room (002 » 030)
WARNINGS: Cute stuff.
SUMMARY: No really Mr. Ned is reading a book about bunnies to a kid it should be some cute shit.


His knock on the door is softer than usual and he huffs to himself, shifting his weight. Stupid, to be worried about whether a five year old will like the children's book tucked against his side, but even after discussing it with Heather and telling himself there's no need for it - Takeshi will like it and he knows it, on a logical level - well. He'd still like to smoke and that's a pretty clear indicator. Nervous about showing off part of himself to a child a hundredth of his age or something, Christ he's in deep.

But he can't even pretend that he won't be a little crushed if the kid gets bored halfway through and decides he'd rather play heroes and dragons and giant robots. Compared to that a simple little tale about two rabbits and their daughter isn't very exciting.

His own rabbit is at his feet, insistently tugging on his trouser leg like ruining the hem will make Takeshi's door magically open. After a moment to shush the little guy he clears his throat and calls out. "Hey, kiddo. It's Mister …Ned."

Maybe he should've called first, or something. Penciled it in.

"Mama Bunny?"

"Oh." Well, he doesn't seem too disappointed in that; facts are facts! He just looks at the page and starts reading each word slow and steady that he knows — to, and, plan — looks up, something hopeful in the way he leans close, because he can only hope he's doing a decent enough job that Ned will be proud of him — her, was

He manages to pronounce basket with a little urgency, like it was the final level of a video game he just had to beat.

"Eh...aht."

Eat. It was supposed to be 'eat'.

Letters confuse him. puh-lan was easy.
