I Have Seen the Light!

Special thanks to Heather 'BunnyHugger' Kendrick for allowing me to portray this bunny similar in appearance to BunnyHugger.

****GENERAL WIDEBEAM****
[The picture appears fuzzy for a moment and then focuses clearly. A largish, 2 foot tall jet black devilbunny with white spots/markings on its body stares out of the screen. Anybun/one who's ever seen BunnyHugger would swear this bun's pelt could have been a possible negative image of BunnyHugger's.]

(hopspinfluffywave) "Hi!" (bright-eyed gigglefluff) "It's me, Moxie Bunny, but you use to know me as that evil Fudd, Sgt Eugene Pomerleau." (downcastpoutfluff) "I feel so guilty for all my past evils in my old life, but I hope to make-up for them." (cheeringupfluff) "What do you think of my new pelt?" (spinaroundshow-offnewbody) "It looks just like BunnyHuggers," ('ceptfluff) "it's black where she's white and white where she's black. Isn't it adorable?" (dewyeyesfluffle/snuggleself) "I recall somebun down in the Carolinas who told me in banter two years ago that she thought Moxie was such a ky00t name." (hopefulfluff) "You don't mind me keeping that name?" (pleadingBambieyes)

[Fudds viewing this message note the cuton level in the room has just shot-up at least 10 fold.]

"I really, really, really, look forward to meeting the other buns who converted in the past." (concernedpoofle) "I hope BunnyHugger is feeling better, I haven't seen her post in a while," (heroworshipfluff) "pershaps she'd be willing to adopt me as a brother..." (muzzleblush...pause)

"Were are my manners!" (sorrypoof) "Let me back-up. Frith sent me a vision Easter Eve. Frith opened my eyes to the messages that you bunnies, especially BunnyHugger, Snug, Kyrie, and all the others have been trying to tell me for years. As you can see, I have seen the light and realized the errors in my former evil Fudd ways. I realized that I had been wrong all this time and you bunnies were right all along. So I converted." (happygigglefluff) "Isn't this wonderful!" (enthusiasticbounce)

"Immediately after that vision from Frith, I went to Major Blake's quarters, snuck-in, tied him-up, stuck my forarm in his mouth and forced him to bite me. I was worried it wouldn't work, since I was immune to normal HLV." (fortunatefluff) "Blake is a carrier of some strain that is resistant to Anti-Bunnies and I became as you see me now in 6 hours... and I felt no pain, for I slept through the conversion! If it hadn't work, I might have had to burden Dr. Snug down to the DRG to design some sort of nanite conversion for me." (thankfrithfluffle) "I didn't have to go that route, Snug is busy enough with all the other converts." (sadeyessighfluff) "Alas, Blake insists on still working for the Fudds, but" (insistanthopwiggle) "we here at Central Maine Warren, (formerly Maine Fudd Volunteers HQ) are working on trying to save Blake and show him the errors of his ways." (pityfluff) "He's one really sick in the head bunny...almost up there with" (shudderfluff and lower voice) "The War of Four." (cowerfearfullyforamoment)

"I immediately hopped around the former Maine Fudd Volunteers HQ and helped all the other former Fudds here see the light! And we had a 100% survival rate!" (patrioticfluffle) "That's right, Maine is now Bunny Territory once more, like it should be."

"Steekman, I'm so sorry, I treated you as I did...you were right all along....but, you really should just let the bunnies finish the conversion process." (hugselfsatisfactionsigh) "You, too, Remus. Quit resisting. You know you'd look good in fur and" (winktiltleftear) "I bet Easter would be very happy with/for you. Steek and Remus, you'd both feel so much better for doing it." (knowingpoof) "And that goes for the rest of the bunny sympathizers and Fudds out there, too!" (hopspinbounce) "Heather, isn't it time you told your husband the truth and show him the errors in his way?" >;)

"As soon as we can obtain a copy of BUNIX, we here at Central Maine Warren will forward our copy of BunnyStumper Deluxe™ to all our fellow buns out there." (fangygrin) "And all the updates scheduled for the next 5 years....the Fudds will be spending many months trying to write a new encryption system now! And Lucky, we've got some information I know you'd like to get your paws on about Ed and those silly Chessington Fudds too!" (enthusiasticspinwiggle) "Of course we will be opening up all our Fudd files for our fellow buns."

(dejectedguiltysighpoof) "But I know that's not enough for my past sins in that former evil life. So I have a greater gift for my fellow buns." (graveseriousfluff) "The Moxie™ neutralizing agent."

[Moxie Bunny carefully opens a can of regular Bunny-Unsafe Moxie™ and using a medicine dropper, drops one drop on his left forepaw and grimaces as it smokes and burns him.]

(cringeinpainfluff) "As you can see, this is the real stuff. But observe!"

[Moxie Bunny takes a second dropper and dips it in a small, unmarked steel can and then holds the dropper over the can of Moxie™. He drips-out three drops of an opaque white liquid. He then pauses for five seconds before lifting the can to his muzzle and guzzling the Moxie™ and then wipes his muzzle with the back of his left forepaw.]

(cutebelchpardonmefluffle) [followed by] (shudderwigglegiggle) "That stuff gives me such a strange sensation now...but I can't seem to get over my addiction to it. As you can see, Moxie™ will no longer be a threat to us bunnies. We might even be able to turn it into a ky00t drink. And I bet you'd like to know what it is I've used to neutralize Moxie™. Well, it's..."

[The screen goes slightly out-of-focus...static/snowy...and then fades out and back in showing the human Fudd, Eugene "Moxie Man" Pomerleau.]

"APRIL FOOLS!!!!!"

"It's amazing what one can do with Abode Photoshop these days!" (smirk) [Eugene downs a double Moxie™ espresso to counter the affects of posting this message.]
