[ Oh. Oh.

She turns her head towards where Eikichi's voice is coming from. ]

What the hell is this thing?! Why is it looking at me like that?!

[deathboss]

Ahhh!

[His totally stealthy hiding spot from which he wasn't screaming from!]

I'M NOT HERE! ...JACKSON COME ON!

[Nooooot moving. Well somewhat moving. While still looking at Ann the creature suddenly flops backwards (thankfully not even close to the cake), tiny little legs and arms in the air and looking at her. Another scream from a mysterious nearby bush.]

PET HER STOMACH!!! SHE JUST LIKES YOU!

[dancecarmen]

[ Ann hesitates. This thing could literally roll over and crush her. It does seem like it's rolling over like a cat asking for pets, but ...

... She takes a careful step forward, one hand out, to see if it goes on the defensive. ]

[deathboss]

[Nope. It just makes this weird purring like sound that sounds more like a motorcycle than anything else. Hello friend!]

SHE WON'T HURT YOU I PROMISE!!!

[Thanks Eikichi.]

[dancecarmen]

[ Okay ... okay. She'll very carefully put a hand on Jackson's stomach and ... rub? She looks apprehensive, glancing at Jackson to see if she liked that. ]

[deathboss]

[The gurgling, pleased sounds from the creature are probably nothing Ann has heard before. Like a picture of a lizard, and a large cat.

SHE LOVES IT.]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

[Eikichi's being super helpful here. I mean MYSTERIOUS VOICE IN THE BUSHES.]

[dancecarmen]

[ Oh, whew. That is a weird noise, but it seems like a good one. She's almost distracted by petting Jackson that it takes her a moment to react to the well wishes. ]

... Eh?

[ Happy birthday? Oh ... Oh! ]

--Oh! That's right!

[deathboss]

[Okay now he finally steps out.]

Surprise!

[Eikichi this is the least surprise ever. He grins and gives Jackson a quick belly rub as well before looking at Ann.]

I'm not too early, am I?
