Nick took his load off on his side of the couch and stretched his neck with a sigh. A considerably strenuous case had been officially solved by him and his companion, and he was starting to feel a small sense of exhaustion from the work placed into it.

As his bunny walked over and sat beside him, the fox proclaimed, "Boy, am I worn out from that case! Chasing that tiger as far as I did took just about everything I had, if I do say so myself."

Judy turned her head over to Nick's side. "Well I'm pretty sure the folks over at that air cargo service thank you, Nick. You saw how happy that bear Rebecca was knowing that her business was safe and sound again."

The vulpine nodded with a sense of agreement. "Yeah," he murmured.

The doe grabbed the remote that was resting a few inches away from her and turned the television on. A news channel being the first thing that appeared on the screen, reporting the most recent happenings around the metropolis. Judy flicked through a few different channels, not finding anything that seemed to be holding her or her fox's interest.

She changed the channel one more time, landing one of those mid-afternoon shows that tended to discuss the gossip and drama on movie stars and the like. When the topic that the show was converting about shifted to an extremely popular show, Nick was reminded of something that he had in mind for a good bit of time.

"That reminds me!" Nick loudly remarked, startling his bunny just a little bit. "They put the next season of it out, Carrots!"

"What are you talking about?" Judy asked, puzzled.

"Our show, remember?" the fox replied. "We've been waiting almost too long for the rest of it to come out. We can probably stream the whole thing right now and watch the whole season tonight."

Immediately, Nick swiped the remote from Judy's paw and loaded up the one streaming service that they got through their television. Just as the vulpine said, the final season of the show they had been hooked on from the beginning was available for them to watch. The best part being that every episode was available, meaning that they wouldn't have to wait or be stuck on any kind of terrible cliffhanger.

"What do ya say, Fluff?" Nick asked. "Think we can manage to watch this whole season tonight?"

Judy hesitated slightly; when it came to watching a marathon of episodes from one particular show, she wasn't exactly the best. However, the doe nodded her head. With that, Nick grinned and started up the first episode that appeared on the list of what was available to watch.

As the loading screen appeared, the fox's tail started to wag excitedly with anticipation. Judy couldn't resist smirking at how ridiculous his amount of excitement looked.

Once the show started, a cinematic melody of strings started to play in the background. A frigid landscape played, the deep amounts of snow being depicted looked larger than anything Tundratown could ever provide. The fox and rabbit watched the TV attentively as an ocelot character walked onto the screen, fighting the freezing, gusty winds with a paw shielding his face.

A Few Episodes Later…

"No!" Nick exclaimed. "Come on, right when things are getting intense!" After a brief moment, he picked up the remote and added, "It's a dang good thing we were given the ability to see it all at once. Alrighty, Carrots, it's on to the next one."

Judy seemed to squirm a little in her seat, the long period of lazily sitting down without much movement starting to get to her. Dotting her eyes over to the corner, she could see the sun's luminescence peaking through the closed curtains of the window near them. Although the two of them seemed to lose track of time, the sun definitely seemed to begin its act of setting for the rest of the night.

"How about tomorrow?" the doe suggested, her voice sounding a bit tired.

"And leave it at such a grueling part of the story?" the vulpine asked in reply, not even trying to contain his enthusiasm. "Heck no, Carrots, we gotta at least see how this confrontation goes."

Judy knew better than to disagree. "Okay, but just one more episode for now."

Nick shrugged his shoulders and picked up the remote again. "Fair enough, Fluff," he agreed. "One more episode."

Judy snuggled up even closer than she was to her fox, her head delicately resting upon his shoulder. As the show started where its previous episode left off, the doe gently intertwined her paw with Nick's and gave it a small squeeze.

Some Time Later…

On the television, a weasel cloaked in medieval attire came onto the screen. The thin mammal being depicted wore a black patch over his left eye, and a sinister grin broke out across his face. In a menacing voice, he snarled, "Surrender to me now, rodent."

A mole wielding a large, shining sword in his paws walked onto the scene, wearing a smile that glimmered with unbreakable confidence. "A wurrior like oi 'll ne'er back down," he snapped back, carrying his words in a very deep accent. "Oi have yet to begin t' foight yur vermin."

When the screen faded to black, Nick sighed and rubbed his eyes. Why do they always have to leave you like that before the next one? he thought.

Needless to say, his promise of only one more episode ended up being broken. Looking around the room, everything was dark around them except for the illumination coming from the TV.

Nick dotted his eyes down to the right of him, looking over at Judy. The doe beside him looked like she was flickered her eyes open after having them closed, looking as if she had been previously straining to keep them fixated on the show. Her head was nestled snuggly against his chest.

The fox rested a paw against the side of his face, bringing his attention back to the show that started to automatically play the next helping of action.

"Should probably get some rest," Nick whispered to himself. After a brief pause, he added, "Nope, definitely need to watch one more."

Author's Note: This one should be relatable for anyone who's ever been hooked on a show so bad that they couldn't stop watching it. I'd be lying if I said that I've never felt that way before! XD

Also, I've placed a few references within this chapter. Could anyone spot them within this story?

Anyhow, let me know what you thought of this. It was kinda written on a whim, so not sure how I did here. Your thoughts, good and bad, are always gladly appreciated.

See you next time! :)
