by Red Wolf"Where did you find these? They're gorgeous." Rachel admired one of the many foil-wrapped, chocolate Cthulhus that Dawn preparing to deliver to Watcher headquarters.
"Someone down at Camden Markets was selling them and I couldn't resist. I haven't been able to bring myself to buy chocolate rabbits since Anya died."
Rachel passed Dawn a chocolate animal that looked like an elongated rabbit with a long tail. "What do you make of this?"
"Weird. What is it?"
"The barman at our local ordered a box and said it was a Bilby. I think the Australians are having a lend of us."

They're much cuter than rabbits, especially when you consider that rabbits are a feral, introduced species in Australia — via LiveJournal

They're very cute. Some of the manufacturers donate part of the proceeds to the preservation of their little, furry counterparts too — via LiveJournal

Huh, it looks sort of like a fox crossed with an anteater. Cute! And all I had were kitty-shaped chocolates. ;)
Say, Wolf, didn't hear back from you, so I'm just checking in to see if you got your beta back? I sent it back within a half hour, but I know there's always the possibility of it having bounced. From some reason, my messages have an annoying tendency to do that... grrr — via LiveJournal — posted by Moonbeam at 01.10.2007 19:49 AEST |

They're little bandicoot guys. Very cute.

You'd think someone would be making them, wouldn't you? Closest I found was an unintentional piece of advent chocolate.

Having a lend of us? What's that translate to in American English?
They make chocolate Cthulhus? That's even better than Santa Cthulu plushies, or Hello Cthulhu stickers. I want one! — via LiveJournal — posted by Elizabeth Culmer at 01.10.2007 19:52 AEST |

Ah, those crazy Aussies. This story actually made me feel kind of sad, what with the Anya reference and all — via LiveJournal

I had to use the Anya reference, it seemed a shame not to remember her — via LiveJournal

Absolutely! And it fit right in with the story as a whole — via LiveJournal

Loove the idea of chocolate Cthulhus. Everyone would of course have the tradition of biting off the tentacles first! — via LiveJournal
