Plot Bunnies. They are lovable, fluffy and cute . . . until you get more then one and they start breeding like the rabbits they are.
Now we here at the Plot Bunny Day Care Center understand how difficult it is to deal with these oh-so-adorable new additions to the Plot Bunnie family whilst one is trying to write a NaNo. After all, it's hard enough trying to reach 50K in a month without having to work out how all these new little critters are going to fit into one's NaNo when you didn't even want them in the first place.
So drop them off here while your busy NaNoing and we'll take care of them with games and food, lest they demand you for plot placement.
WARNING: Expect to recieve more Plot Bunnies then originally dealt with. No one can imagine the amount of copulating they can do once left to play with others in their spare time!

Alphonse here isn't interested in copulating so much as aggressively devouring frontal lobes. Do you have somewhere that he can be isolated? Preferably somewhere with nice big thick soundproof walls and a key that can readily be swallowed, thrown into the sea, or otherwise lost?

Oh, man, I have one to leave here. Sorry, Morgan-Goes-To-India, you'll have to stay here. Look! They have carrots!
*Plot Bunny scampers off*
Too easy. I'll be back before the month is out to pick it back up.

I'm dropping off all my unnecessary plot bunnies. It's not that I don't want them, it's just that I don't necessarily need all two dozen hopping around me incessantly for the next couple weeks in November. It's not them, it's me. Honest. Good bye plot bunnies--be friendly, but not too friendly. I don't need to be coming back with more than I left--and hopefuly I don't adopt any new ones in the meantime.
To Sionainn: I give you the pick of the next three litters of plot bunnies AND all the delectables I currently possess. Also, a hefty bag of carrots to keep the plot bunnies happy. I'll be back in December to pick them up. =D *waves*

Ah, good. If you don't mind, I'll just leave in your excellent care:
MCs Searching For The Planet From Which Their Ancestors Sprang. Really, there's enough going on with the war and all. This little bunny will just need to wait for a proper sequel.
Thanks much! Oh, and if he gets terribly unruly, tell him, "No carrots for you tonight!" That usually does the trick.

I think that may need to be ordered in but oddly enough there is a large bag of frontal lobes that got sent in by mistake. He can gnaw away at them in the meantime.

My plot bunnies are a rare type of cold blooded assassin, they have a code not to kill each other but there is a slight chance that they are open to comissions on lives of other plot bunnies.
They are tricky and should be kept away from open areas as they may construct an escape plot and run a rampage on NaNo. Is there some kind of police interrogation type room with sealed exits that they could wait in... I'm actually going to pick them up after NaNo next year... I'm too busy for the next twelve months for them...
Thanks :)

For your entertainment:
half the sons, all of grandson's and great-grandsons of the Shannon Family.
Their bagpipes and drums are very distracting. They do a great rendition of Going Home but....We just cannot handle another long description of a bagpipe concert this year.

Please take my plot bunnies off my hands for a while.
1. The humans who want to persist in believing they can survive a global Ice Age lasting 2,000 years and insist on pestering me with their story
2. The character who wants to be a saboteur but has no motive to do so
3. The damn food replicator machine that is trying to take off with a plot of it's own.
I will donate the frontal lobes of the misguided Ice Age survivors to the cause :)
thanks

These guys could actually come in handy, may not be a need for an interogation room with sealed exits. :D
Thanks indeed; that Alphonse Plot Bunnie has been looking at me oddly lately. I think he is getting hungry again.

Oh my. I'd leave my muse as well to help take care of the bunnies, but I kind of need hir (don't know if she's male or female yet...), and she'd get all the bunnies to breed. Like crazy. She's a card carrying breeder.
Go on guys. Have fun. I'll be back in December. *Opens large cage and lots of bunnies scamper out*
No no, you too. *Pulls out Evil-Pants-Of-Doom plot bunny that looks half starved* I'll come back, I swear.
That one doesn't like me. I abandoned this year after bribing it with this year's nano. So now I've got to write it for next year's nano otherwise it'll seriously attack. Like monty python style attack.
Thank you so much. I don't mind picking up more bunnies, but I really need to get rid of these for now at least.

*drops off the bunny that keeps trying to kill her characters off*
And you may want to keep that one away from any main characters who need to survive.
I'll be back to pick it up when I get around to the last part of my plot and have loads of characters to kill off.

There is a plot bunny that insists on sitting on my shoulder where it can conveniently whisper awesome ideas to me while I sit in class.
*yoinks and tosses in*
But the one in the bath tub I think I'll keep. So far he's been very very helpful. He's also been neutered.

*ruthlessly kicks the cross-eyed bunny that insists I should join another fanfic-fest in*
Sorry, he's getting really difficult. And he has a fondness for biting ankles. Just give him one of those Hannibal Lecter masks or keep him restraint somewhere if he makes any trouble or tries to convince people to research the due south and supernatural timelines. *shudders*
I promise I'll come and get him once I got NaNo and the other fanfic-fest out of the way.

Oh thank god! *unattaches rabid Kill-Off-FMC(4) Plot Bunny from her skull and puts down* Go on- look, there's another Kill-off-the-characters Bunny you can play with! Have fun!
I just don't think I can have that one, not with the "Two MCs leave at the end of the book" Bunny I already have... I might be back before December 1st to get him though.

Hi, can you please take the mysterious man following my MC around? I really don't know why he's there, and can't really be bothered to work him into the plot. He's a well-dressed man of about forty with persistent migraines. Other people are easily convinced by him to do things that will help my MC. I....don't want him, but he keeps showing up in scenes. CONFINE HIM. I think he's an escape artist!

Ah, yes.....the Plot Bunnies. I have given them their own page....far away from my novel. I've promised to return to them and feed them and let them out to play...sometime in December or maybe February.

Oh, my gosh, thank you! I thought that these plot bunnies would be nibbling on my head all through November. Goodbye "Getting drowned in an underground city" and "Getting lost in the desert", Mommy will see you in December when she can take care of you again without going berserk. Play nice with the other bunnies now! Thank you so much for taking them on Sionainn, they were driving me crazy!

Here I don't need these plot bunnies anymore, they have their own stories to tell when they get their own books:
Motel clerk possessed by aliens
Hal the werewolf who runs Full Moon Creamery, ice cream shop
The demon running the mexican restaurant in down town Riverview
Please take care of them, They have good hearts but tend to run wild at times, except the Motel clerk, he is just a jerk.
Please also keep the silverwear away from Hal, he seems to have a severe allergic reacton to it.
I'll be back to pick them up for the sequels.

Ohhhh, so _that's_ what plot bunnies are! I'm embarrassed to admit, but it took me a while to get it. Now I realize I have some.
Look at all you cute little fellas hoppin' around all bunny-like! Can I give you a little scratch behind the ear, little guy? Maybe I should take you home with --- No. Nonononononononono. I came here to drop off plot bunies, not pick them up.
Bye bye, Angela Gets Involuntarily Committed To A Psychiatric Hospital By Her Parents And Needs Rescuing. Run along and play now, sweetie. Yes, you're a good idea, but we've got a bratty brother to rescue, a lair of deposed gods to visit, a doomed romance to pursue, an apocalypse to avert ... frankly we're just full up on crazy right now. Maybe in another ten thousand words or so we can come pick you up. Or maybe Dec. 1.
Thanks, Plot Bunny Day Care Center!

Here is my plot bunny for safe keeping. He is a Vulcan. Those pointed ears are natural so he does not need to be taken to the vet, but here is his vet's phone number just in case he gets hurt. Don't worry, that green blood is natural too, not a blood disease. He bites, so handle with care. He bites because he says it is only logical that I pay attention to him; but don't let him fool you too. Don't worry about sexual behavior and him getting any of the other bunnies pregnant. He only breeds once every seven years, and that is four years off.

*A note found pinned on the lapel of a sweet little bunny with oversized teeth and brown spots*
Dear Whoever Finds Me,
My name is Lothario. I am a good bunny. My mommy says that she loves me very much, but that she just can't afford to take care of me right now. She says that I have sweet ideas, and that she would love to be able to make her story a retelling of little red riding hood, but its quite impossible at the moment.
Please take good care of me.
I am loved.

I have two plot bunnies here that are duking it out. It's a Battle Royale to see how the novel will end this year. I can't get rid of either of them, but I do need those shallow side plots to stop worming their way in. *glares accusingly at plot bunny to blame* You can keep that one.

Off you go little gardener plot bunny and love interest (watch those two, I don't need any more plot bunnies right now!) Also watch out for the ghost bunny, he's hard to track down and might scare the others, although he might be a bit afraid of the cold blooded assasins and Alphonse. None of them really like carrots, but if you've got any rose prunings lying around they'd all be very grateful. Bye for now little ones!

Yes, I really do need to drop off this very cute little plot bunny. Her name is Make-Nellie-A-Main-Character, and I am also dropping off her sister, whose name is What's-In-The-Package. They are both quite sweet and shouldn't be too much trouble - unless, of course, you start listening to them, and then they SIMPLY WON'T be quiet ever again.
I may be back for them before the end of the month, or I may just wait until I've finished my novel. They mean well (I think), but my story really doesn't need these two plot bunnies at the moment.
Thanks so much!

Thanks Sionainn,
I got a mess of them - Here's Ned, Ted, Jed, Fred, Ed and all the rest of the sequels who think they should be nurtured first. Silly things, really.
While you're at it, could you take Matilda off my hands? Don't let the doe-eyes fool you, she's a cunning one. She keeps telling me to steal NaNo Author aliases and use them for character names. Hmm ... what's that Tillie? ... sure, Sionainn would be a great name for that pesky wood elf in chapter 3, but the elf already has a name ... sigh. Scoot. Shoo. Go join the others.
Thanks again Sionainn.
