a very important question. Video.

[birdhousesoul]

If a rabbit could talk, what do you think he might sound like? It's a boy rabbit. A nice one, but not too nice. Tolerant but fair.

...What?

[voice, fine, okay]

[birdhousesoul]

Not like that. Try pitching it half an octave higher.

[voice and it's sexy]

[jurisimpudent]

I wasn't providing an example!

[voice whilst chinhandsing]

[birdhousesoul]

Oh, good. I'm not sure huffy incredulity is the sound we want for this rabbit.

How do you think a talking rabbit ought to sound? Remember, he's a kind but firm rabbit. No-nonsense, very down to earth.

[voice]

[jurisimpudent]

All right - first, what is this question even supposed to mean.

[permavoice then]

[birdhousesoul]

It's not supposed to be a brain-teaser. What part's unclear?

[handelaar]

[ANDERS WHAT ARE YOU EVEN he's immediately grabbing for his cigarettes.]





You gotta be shittin' me.

[mutelunatic]

doesn't matter.

[birdhousesoul]

Why would I be ... shitting you?

[He gets the figure of speech. The word exists in Ferelden. He just doesn't get why it would be such an improbable thing to call for rabbit voice suggestions.]

We didn't reach any conclusive conclusions on our own. What's the harm in consulting our friends and neighbors, hm?

all right he will text for you

[birdhousesoul]

why not?

how kind of you

[mutelunatic]

won't talk.

doesn't need a voice.

[video]

[dwellsonthe]

[Somehow this is not what he expected to hear when he turned on his communicator.]

Soft spoken, maybe.

he's a giver

[birdhousesoul]

There are things he would say if he could, I'm sure of it. He can't press buttons with his little paws.

[mutelunatic]

not everything has to talk.

probably wouldn't say anything if it could.

[oh right video]

[handelaar]

I dunno, 'cause you're weird as hell.

[One smoky, put out sort of sigh.]

An' because they're all morons.

[dirtyword]

Bugs Bunny.

[video yes]

[birdhousesoul]

Even if they were, it may not be wise to --

[To say so over the public network? Ah, well. This is why they need a rabbit spokesperson. A rabbit won't call the whole ship morons.

Anders clears his throat politely, by way of ending that ill-advised sentence, and muddles on.]

Anyhow, we're just looking for a plausible bunny voice. One that will appeal to most people, rather than making them feel as though their worst nightmares have come to life. So it seems prudent to ask what a nice bunny ought to sound like, that's all.

[birdhousesoul]

I think he'd like people to be respectful of the gardens, because if we don't take care of the gardens, what will he do for bunny food?

What this guy said.

[shoyu]

Eh -- perhaps soft, a little lilting? Gentle.

[ pause. ]

-- is there a reason for this question?

[mutelunatic]

pointless.

still wouldn't talk.

[kindlings]

[ A long, long, long pause.

And then: ]


Rabbit's tasty, roasted o'er a cookfire.

[alittlesideways]

I doubt it'd have much to say, no matter what it sounds like. All they think about is eating and fucking. [Tommy Burgess: RABBIT EXPERT.]

[throwsdown]

[... Bunnies. Rabbits. Takeshi approves of the topic.]

That's hard to say, 'cuz you didn't say how old he is!

Is he a grown-up bunny rabbit?

[ voice ]

[tailcrook]

[Considering one rabbit he knows - ]

Kind... but sleepy.
