March 8th 2010

Today, was the day, business man, Samuel B. Register, watched Daffy's Christmas special and got inspired for a new show. The studio was having trouble getting everyone work evenly, Bugs and Daffy had rumors surrounding them, this would be best for everyone.
Mr.Register enjoyed seeing all the toons acting together, he started calling everyone he could and get the show in development.
He pitched his idea to the studio, got the clear, and now all he needed was the actors.
_________________________________________

It was around 3 PM on a day in late March, Bugs was cooking some Paella, and Daffy was taking a freshing shower. Their was a small built in TV, by the cabinets, resting on the wall, while Bugs cooked, he listened to whatever was playing on MTV that day.
Daffy had managed to bring a portable boom box into the bathroom with him, setting it on their double sink marble counters. He was playing his Fergie greatest hits CD.
While frying his vegetables, Bugs got a call from his cellphone. He turned down the volume of the TV using the handheld remote that set in the miscellaneous drawer under their counter, and answered the call.
"Yes, Bugs Bunny speaking~"
As the caller began speaking, all Bugs could hear, no matter how hard he tried to tune it out, was the majestic words of "Fergilicious" and Daffy singing along to it.
"Can you hang on, just one sec-
DAFFY I'M ON THE PHONE!"
The volume of the music lowered, and Bugs could hear the sound of the shower curtain opening,"WHAT?"
Bugs placed a hand over his phone speaker,"I'M ON THE PHONE!"
Daffy lowered his music a little bit more and switched from singing to a light hum and mumble the rest of the lyrics,"OKAY!
hold hold hold hold on- check it oout~!"
Bugs started to hear some laughter on the other end of the phone and realized he had been covering up the wrong end of the speaker the entire time.
"Uh.... Hello? Sorry, about that haha."
The chuckle continued,"Nah! Don't be! That was hilarious!"
"Uh... Who is this again?"
The man cleared his throat,"oh sorry! I'm Spike Brandt, executive producer for Warner's. I'm calling about a new project I think you'd be interested in!"
Bugs turned off the burner to his stove, and resting up against the kitchen counter,"Oh? Do tell."
"It'll be similar to that Christmas movie y'all were in a little while ago! All the toons playing a role with simple slapstick humor!"
Bugs wanted to correct the man that it was Daffy's movie but didn't want to come off as rude.
"Everyone huh?"
"Yep! Just come down to the office, we'll set a table reading, shoot a small pilot and go from there!"
Just then, a soaking black duck, wrapped in a towel, along with one on his head, marched from the bathroom and into the kitchen.
"Who called?"
"Its a producer! He says what got a job!"
Daffy grabbed a water from the fridge,"Ooh nice!"
"Oh there's one thing-" Brandt continued. "This time you and Daffy will be having love interests! Isn't that great? We can finally put away all those silly, pesky rumors haha!"
The two looked at each other in shock, and feeling a little awkward after that last remark.
"Uhhh sure Doc.."
"Oh! Also! It seems there has been a little falling out with you and Lola Bunny... So we had a new actress hired to replace her, they'll barely tell its a different person!"
Daffy rested his eyebrows and grabbed another water from the fridge and handed it to Bugs,"oh boy."
"Uh... Lets talk over this again at the table reading Doc? Sound good?"
"Sure, sure! My assistant will call you back soon and set a date! Bye now!"
The two of them gave an awkward farewell, and Bugs hung up the phone.
The rabbit turned to face his pan filled with now cold, vegetables, picked up from the handle and began to scape them out and into the small trashcan by the island with a spatula.
"Well... This is ruined."
Daffy walked over to him, somewhat concerned and yet intrigued,"So what do you think?"
"About what?"
"The job?"
Bugs then walked back over to the sink and slotted his pan into it, and then running some hot water on top for a couple of seconds.
"What about it?"
"Do you think we should do it?"
Bugs took a deep sigh.
Daffy leaned to him, concerned,"what's wrong?"
Bugs looked to him with some compassion and some anger, though not directed at the duck,"it just... It feels like they're pushing us even further away... And the whole thing with Lola... Am i even allowed to do that? Its not like i can ask her... She stopped talking to me... And you getting a love interest? Ahhh! I just feel angry and upset at the studio! Sorry... If it feels like I'm taking it out on you...", Bugs gently grabbed Daffy's hand.
Daffy gave a stern and hopeful look to his rabbit,"Look at it this way, we get to work together, and im sure Lola had to sign it off for them to be able to do any of that... And, everyone is gonna be there! We'll be able to work with Speedy, Porky,... That angry red short man... I can never remember his name... And don't even worry about the whole love interest thing, at the end of the day, we're married, we go home together! Okay?"
Bugs smiled softly, he always knew how to make him feel better, and thet wrapped each other into each other's arms.
"Plus, we need money to pay the bills."
