** Xanxus decides to bring a nesting King Cobra home as a present for Dorea, so makes a box out of his Mist Flames to put it in and makes an Apprentice Lightning named Tokki(meaning 'rabbit') carry it around the rest of the day, sit next to it during the midnight watch and the entire next day. Anything made with Mist Flames tends to abruptly evaporate once it reaches it's limit; Xanxus knows it will last a long time, but Tokki and the other mooks don't. Also, the box isn't even closed, so Tokki has to grab the snake and lift through the warded door when it goes hunting in the middle of the night. He also stares at the box, worrying that the snake's eggs will hatch into aggravated an deadly little cobras. Xanxus also rests the box on his lap when they take the plane home and goes to sleep, leaving the mooks to stare in horror at the snake snuggling underneath his jacket for warmth.
** Tokki is later Named Serpentari(meaning 'Snake Handler') for the aforementioned 'Snake In A Box' incident, and is getting really tired of his comrades putting live snakes in his bed.
