(As of this writing, yesterday was my birthday. So, I thought I throw a little RP to celebrate and have a little fun.)

The morning sun rose above the town of Bon Bon, illuminating the snow-covered rooftops and streets. In the Gilded Pen, Leaf was fixing his wooden stove to bring warmth to his apartment. Still wearing his green striped pajamas, his eyes glanced up at a calender hanging upon the nearby wall with a small smile on his face.

You see, this was not an average day for the young buck. As it so happens, it was his birthday today. "Another year has gone by," he thought to himself. Memories flashed in his mind, some of which made him chuckle. "Maybe I'll keep the store closed today and treat myself."

((Sorry for being a tad late but happy birthday! ^_^))

"How is it I'm just finding out that there is a book store in Bon Bon?" the lioness said to herself as she searched through the town to find this shop.

(That's all right, Mayfield! I appreciate it. Very Happy

)

Leaf finished fixing the fire within the wood stove and proceeded to get himself ready for the day.He walked over to his dresser and took out a blue vest and dress pants with a white button-up shirt. After getting dressed, the rabbit walked downstairs to his bookstore and headed towards the display window. He placed a "CLOSED" sign up and grabbed his gray winter coat off the coat rack. He opened the shop door and strolled out into the streets

Leaf walked up the street into an intersection. As he was contemplatingon which way to go, he spotted Rhoda wandering about. From the way she looked at the different buildings and signs, she was searching for something. The rabbit walked up behind her at a nearby lamppost.

"Hello, Rhoda," he said to her. "Do you need help finding something?"

"Oh, hello Leaf. Nice to see you again." Rhoda greeted the rabbit with a smile before looking at some of the shop signs "Yes, I was told that there is a book shop in town. You wouldn't happen to know where it is would you?" she asked hoping he would know.

Leaf smiled at her at the mention of a bookstore. "Well, you're in luck today! As it so happens, I know where you can find the place. I can take you there if you like."

Rhoda's face lit up with joy "That would be wonderful Leaf. Thank you. I think the name is the Gilded Pen." she said with a happy smile on her face.

"The Gilded Pen? That's not too far from here." Leaf offered his paw to her. "Shall we?"

"Let's." Rhoda said with a smile, taking Leaf's hand.

Leaf returned her smile, walking beside her as he led her back to his bookstore. As the two were heading down the street, the rabbit took some time to check out Rhoda. His steps were slowing as he couldn't help but admire at the mountain lion's beauty. Her golden hair reminded him of fields of wheat waving gently in the countryside breeze. He could feel his face getting warm as his eyes took in her curvaceous figure, coming to rest upon her ample bust.

"Stop that," he chided to himself in his mind. "You're supposed to be a gentleman, not some drooling heathen." He quickly averted his eyes, finding them at his own bookstore.

"Ah, here we are. Now just let me open up here and..."

He spotted another gentleman standing in front of the door with his hands behind his back.

"Excuse me, sir? Is there something I can help you with?"

Rhoda notcied Leaf walking slower but paid no mind to it as she absentmindedly leaned slightly against the kind rabbit. They walked up to the shop and the lioness noticed a familiar wolf. She just rolled her eyes.

(Hm... furry hasn't checked in yet. You think we should move forward without him, Rhoda?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 21 May 2010 Posts: 11790

((yeah. If he wants to come back then he can.))

FA Page · Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Oct 2009 Posts: 2178

(All right then. On with the show!)

Leaf noticed the wolf didn't show signs of listening to him. The rabbit shook it off and reluctantly let go of Rhoda's hand to take a key out of his pocket. He unlocked the door and led her inside.

"Here it is... It's not much, but I'll do whatever I can to help you. Is there anything in particular you'd like?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 21 May 2010 Posts: 11790

Rhoda just ingoted the wolf for the time being and steppe inside with Leaf "Wait, you own this shop?!" she asked a little surprised.

FA Page · Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Oct 2009 Posts: 2178

Leaf rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "Er... Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Yes, I am the proprietor of this establishment. My friend, Link, helped me find this place. I owe him a lot for the help he's given me."

"That's just like him. Helping out anyone in need." Rhoda said looking at all the books around. She looks like she had died and gone to heaven.

"Yes, he truly is an altruistic cheetah." The rabbit looked over at Rhoda, seeing her rapt expression at the numerous books. A warm smile flashed across his face.

"Ah, it's heartwarming to see someone with such affection for books."
"Rhoda, is there anything you would like for me to get?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 21 May 2010 Posts: 11790

"Hmmmm. Would there happen to be any Shakespearian literature?" Rhoda asked. She had read one of Shakespeare's books before and loved it.

Rhoda just smiled. She hadn't seen Link in a while and wanted to ask him about the trip but held it off as she looked for some books.

(An very late happy B-day to ya!)

Slowly walking up to the bookstore, Alex wondered if it would have the book he searched for.

"Sigh. Of all the books I had to of not had in my shop..." He grumbled to himself as he walked in the store.

Leaf was about to search some books for Rhoda when he heard someone calling out to him from the doorway. He looked up and saw his friend Link stooping below the door frame and entering his bookstore.

"Hey, Link!" The rabbit said with a grin on his face. "Not much is going on. Just planning on what to do for my birthday today."

He went to a bookshelf to search for some Shakespeare books. He scanned across each spine of the books before pulling out several of the tomes and placing them on a nearby table. He turned around to talk to Rhoda when he spotted the wolf from outside and a panther he never seen before.

"Oh, hello gentlemen! How can I be of assistance?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 07 Nov 2009 Posts: 2846

"not much hello to yout two leaf and to you panther?" "well im jsut wondering you got any edgar aleen poe or anything in that genre"

FA Page · Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 31 Oct 2009 Posts: 2178

"Hm... Something with Edgar Allen Poe? Just a moment."

He quickly rushed to another part of his store. His knowledge of the shop's layout enabled him to find the correct bookshelf for the works of Poe. He scanned the shelf and found the book he was looking for.

"Here you are," the rabbit said to the wolf as he handed over the book. "This is the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe. Just head to the register and I'll ring you up shortly."

He turned his attention back to Rhoda, who was looking through another shelf. "I checked my shelves and I seem to have found some works on Shakespeare you might be interested in. I placed them at a nearby table if you'd like to look through them.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 21 May 2010 Posts: 11790

"Thank you Leaf." Rhoda said with a warm smile as she walked over to the forementioned books and looked through them, skimming and trying to remember what she had read before.

Clearing his throat and walking up to the rabbit, Alex offered a hand.

"Alexander Sinclair at your service. Can you direct me to your musical section please?" He kindly asked.

Alex did not fail to notice the others in the shop, although only one, a wolf, was familiar to him. He could of sworn he had seen the cheetah before too.

"thanks leaf" he looked over and gave him a jhandshake
