No Frills, Just Rabbit

The Crystal Empire Royal Treasury was deathly silent in the midnight hours… but only for so long as a figure came crashing down through the skylight. The shards of broken glass clattered among the piles of gold, silver and chests of other riches as the falling figure snagged.

Tangled up in a length of rope suspended somewhere above, Rabbit helplessly rocked back and forth, completely immobile and upside down.

“Yup! You were right!” he called up to his partner in crime. “This was a bad idea. You may as well pull me back up, Trix!”

Rabbit struggled a little and found out the hard way he was very much stuck. “And find some scissors!”

The only way this could get worse is if he got caught…

“Hello, Rabbit,” a voice said. And as much as Rabbit wanted it to be, it was not the voice of Murphy.

Slowly rotating on the spot, Rabbit found himself dangling at eye height with the princess of eyeliner herself, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.

“Ah! Hey, Princess Cadance. How’s it hanging?” The way he looked between her and the rope it was almost as if he were egging her on, saying; “get it? Hanging? Get it?”

“Are you robbing the Crystal Empire Treasury?” Cadance asked pointedly.

Rabbit answered without missing a beat. “I’ll tell you what I’m not doing. I’m not robbing the Crystal Empire Treasury.”

“Is that so?”

“Of course. If I were robbing the Crystal Empire Treasury you wouldn’t have caught me.”

“Mmmm-hmmmm.”

“This is merely a, uh… a test in security, yes! That’s it! I was just making sure your riches and wealth were totally secure as a favour to you, because we’re such good buddies, old pals, you and I.” He chuckled sheepishly into the alicorn’s un-amused expression.

Staring awkwardly at the princess, Rabbit felt the sweat drip from his collar. And the blood rushing to his head wasn’t helping in the slightest. He was pretty sure Cadance wasn’t buying the ‘not robbing the Crystal Empire’ thing. Cadance was no dunski, Rabbit had to credit her for that.

“Are, uh… are you still pissed at me because of that honeymoon thing?” Rabbit asked, changing the subject as quickly as possible. But judging by her suddenly heated expression he’d changed the subject the wrong direction.

“Thing?” Cadance scoffed offended. “Rabbit, you robbed the hotel Shining and I were staying at.”

“So the price of your stay went up a little. You’re royalty! What do you care?”

“You also burned down the honeymoon suite!” Cadance shouted nearly hysterical now.

That was not my fault! It was management’s own damn fault for installing sub-par wiring. Besides, you still had a great honeymoon! Wasn’t the tent on the beach romantic?”

“How did you know we were in a tent on the beach?”

“Yeah, I may have sold that tent to the Flim Flam Brothers before they sold it to you.”

Cadance nodded, suddenly calm and understanding. “Oh, that’s good. Great. That explains plenty. No wonder it was LEAKY!”

“I think I’m sensing just a little hostility in your voice there.”

Judging by her expression Rabbit was pretty sure Cadence was on the verge of yelling “OFF WITH HIS HEAD!”

His life practically flashing before his eyes, Rabbit gulped audibly and struggled in his tangled web, only succeeding in tangling himself a little more.

“Oh for… Trix! What’s taking so long!? Pull me up!”

Author's Note:

Gonna try and churn out another chapter of VsE. Fingers crossed I can see the next chapter through.

So is this just gonna be a random fic now, or are just trying to ease into things before you get back to the plot?

White Lanterns exist, they are just hard to come by.

If Rabbit was voiced, what would he sound like?

7284818 Grif from RvB, I would think.

Nolan North. Nolan North can voice anyone, The Great and Powerful Trixie included.

I don't know which is making my jaw hit the floor harder, that this fic updated or the current profile picture of the author :trollestia:.

Honestly, despite the Hands crossover I like it kinda more than Hands? Happy it had a crossover though as it let me find this fic originally and update made me remember This piece of great read

It's been permanently shut down, sorry. The current Equestria universe became too unstable and self-contradicting to introduce genuine living things to without fatal side effects. You'll have to wait for Gen 5.

7355440 it's only self contradicting in a few episodes, unless you count the comics which you shouldn't.

Look at me, actually remembering to check my favourited fics!

Looking forward to whenever this is next updated!

Hah! good to see Rabbit hasn't changed a bit since we last saw him. And its been so long too... ive been thinking of getting back on the writing saddle myself.

Hope you will too!

Sumbled my way into this this morning. FINALLY finished it all. Good stuff all around, lemme tell ya.

Straight into the Favorites and Tracking it goes!
