Hey, so another drabble for you guys :)

Anony Mouse, glad you got an account now! :D You'll have to learn how to use it though. If you look down the side panel of your login page, you should see a tab that says 'Private Messaging' and it should have at least a (1) next to it. I sent you a message you loon, welcome to Fanfiction! :D

Anyways, please review, it always makes for a lovely wee read :)

Acronym, n.
A work made up of the initial letters of a phrase.

"What you doing there nipper?" Bunny asked, lounging over Sophie's bed as she curled up next to him, tapping away on her new phone. She'd got one when she turned ten, and recently it was all she ever bothered about.

"Texting," she muttered, not bothering to look at him, still typing away to some girl called 'Candy xoxoxo :)'. The Pooka knew about technology, he had to living in a world where everything progressed so fast. He understood that cell phones were used by humans so they could communicate with one another, but he didn't understand the obsession with them. There wasn't one teenage girl in the world who didn't have one glued to her hand, laughing with her friends. What really got him was when they texted one another when they were sat beside one another! What was the point?

Sometimes he believed that they'd lost the ability to actually talk to one another, and on the odd occasion they did speak it would scare the other witless to actually hear a voice.

Bunny glanced over Sophie's shoulder, prodding her until she sighed and moved her head so he could see what she was doing.

"There's such a thing as privacy you know," she said, but she was grinning, and he grinned back at her.

"Not in this case love," he laughed, before looking at the text, and his face dropped a bit. "What does 'lol' mean?"

"Lol?" she giggled, rolling over and putting her phone down for once. "It means 'laugh out loud'."

"Then why don't you just type that?" Bunny asked, looking at her curiously.

"Because that would be too long, and take up my character limit," Sophie explained, shooting him a look that clearly questioned his intellect. "There are more too, like 'lmao' means laughing my ass off, and 'omg' means oh my god."

"And all texters do this?" Bunny asked, rolling his evergreen eyes.

"Everyone ever texts like this," she nodded, picking her phone up. "'Cept you, because you're dumb and you don't have a phone."

The Pooka rolled over and off the bed, landing on his feet but crouched down as he shot Sophie a reproachful look. But she ignored him and he slyly stuck his tongue out at her.

"You're dumb," he muttered, and tried to ignore her smirk.

"She's growing up North, and I don't like it," Bunny said quietly as he lounged by the fire, warming his feet after a run through the snow on a particularly frigid day up at the Pole.

"It happens," North sighed, relaxing in his chair. "I don't think she'll stop believing though, she loves you too much," he added with a slight chuckle as he sipped his brandy. The Russian could have probably gone to sleep sat in his chair like that if it weren't for the Winter spirit that launched himself through the door, caught his foot on the top of the lamp and went hurtling into the wall on the other side of the room, landing with a smack on the floor.

North jumped up in shock and surprise, rushing over to Jack to see if he was okay, whereas Bunny rolled about on the floor laughing at the boy.

"Lol," he muttered under his breath, realising that it was a lot easier to say and even between laughs it expressed something, and even added a touch of sadism that he quite liked.

"What- what did you just say?" Jack huffed, standing up while North batted the dirt off him, trying to catch his breath.

"Lol," Bunny said, smirking. "Sophie taught me text language today."

The look Jack gave him was one of shock, and slowly it melted into a grin, and he was laughing too, doubling over and holding onto his knees to stop him toppling over again. Bunny laughed too, and while the pair struggled to control themselves, North stood there looking at them both with an extremely confused expression on his face.

"Lol?" he asked, when they'd calmed down a little.

Needless to say, neither could speak nor stand as they set off laughing again.
