Officer Judy Hopps, reporting for duty!

... Which is, what, exactly? I can't see Chief Bogo assigning me to computers and records. Come on, let's look for some real activity! You know me, I'm a bunny of action!

Oh, so you're little shaky? Hey, that's okay! No one gets it perfect the first time! Just follow my lead! And let's keep an eye out for Nick - someone has to show him the ropes.

[New person! With long ears! Oh needs to say hello, obviously.]

Greeting you!!

[hopps_to_it]

Hello...

[... Uh. Boy? Girl? What??? What kind of animal is this QUICK LEAST OFFENSIVE TERM-]

... You!

[ohboov]

[The alien is more excited about meeting someone that was not a humans person. He makes a gleeful sound, running up to her to pump her hand up and down with both of his.]

I am meeting you for the first time *GASP* your hands are the softest!

[And now he's petting her hands, entranced by them. SO FURRY!]

[hopps_to_it]

[So... creepy. She laughs nervously, trying to pull her hands back.]

Well, uh, it's nice to meet you too!

[ohboov]

[He has no idea how awkward this situation is. But he quickly lets go of her hand, eager to introduce himself.]

I am Oh. I has been given this name by my many friends.

[His English pronunciation is great, but his sentences...are a little off. More gasping and pointing.] Your ear pods are furry too!

[hopps_to_it]

Ear pods...?

[He must be some sort of foreigner, so she guesses she can forgive some of his ignorance.]

Oh, uh, right! I'm a bunny. My name is Judy Hopps.

[ohboov]

What is a bunny? You are not humans person, they are only fuzzy on top.

[slicknick]

Wow. Slow down there, Carrots.

I'm a clever fox, remember? I catch on quick.

This place? [He gestures lazily to wherever they're currently at.] It's got nothing on Zootopia.

And you know I was practically a king there. If anything, I showed you the ropes around there. I think I can handle being a cop here. Don't you worry about me, partner.

[hopps_to_it]

It's not you I'm worried about. It's everyone who has to meet you.

[But she smirks as she says it, so it's all good.]

But there's nothing here we can't handle. I just wish there was something 'to' handle, I feel bored already!

[slicknick]

Nice try, Judes, but I know you love me.

[And a smirk right back atcha, rabbit.]

You know, I actually know what you mean. I think you got me hooked on the whole buddy cop thing. Kinda starting to miss chasing down criminals and cleaning up the streets.

... or maybe just having one of those official donut breaks.

[hopps_to_it]

Do I love you? ... Yes. Yes I do.

Maybe we can find Clawhouser and see if he can share. I'm finding all sorts of interesting people here, I bet he could be mixed in... We just have to keep our ears open for that Gazelle app he keeps playing.

[slicknick]

[Hearing that always gets a smile out of him.]

You know, I downloaded that app onto my phone and I'm really starting to see the appeal. I mean, I'm not really a dancing sort of fella, but that Gazelle really makes me look good.

[hopps_to_it]

Oh, this I gotta see!

[Already trying to reach for your pocket, because what's personal space between friends?]

[slicknick]

[He rolls his eyes but good-naturedly, not stopping her from reaching for his phone.]

You have no shame, Miss Grabby Paws, you know that?

[He doesn't realize until it's too late that she hasn't seen his phone's new wallpaper. Soon as Judy switches it on, she'll see a selfie that she took of the two of them last time she snatched his phone away. He'd chided her then saying he was just going to delete it, but later had decided to do this instead because... well, it wasn't a bad pic. Her with her big, cheerful grin and him with his more casual, cool-guy look - but both looked happy.]

[hopps_to_it]

[It takes her half a moment to realize it, paw up, ready to hit the app. She then pauses, blinks in remembrance... a hushed moment to think of this significance... And then easily goes back into grinning from one long ear to the other.]

You know what this means, don't you?

[slicknick]

That I really should've kept that old wallpaper of me and Flash?

[Don't mind the deadpan, he's kidding.]

[hopps_to_it]

It means... I can take more selfies of us, and you can't complain!

[She'll be opening up that camera app now, yanking Nick in close.]

[slicknick]

Really should've known better than to encourage you.

[But Nick doesn't actually pull away, instead reaching up his paw behind her head to give her little bunny ears for the photo.]

[the_gerber_baby]

Well, ain't you just full of pep.

[hopps_to_it]

Well, why shouldn't I be? It's a brand new day, full of new opportunities, doing the job I was born to do!

[the_gerber_baby]

Good grief. You're one of them optimists, aren't you?
