[5] 23 Days Until Easter

[It's been a weird start of the month for Bunny. What with Holly Peaks, then getting not one, but TWO people from his home world, one of which he assumed was long gone. All in the space of a week. To make matters worse, the castle had decided to do this on the very month where Easter was held.

He could have sworn the place had done it on purpose.

As is normal for him, instead of facing any of the worry and heartache Katherine's arrival has brought him, he's thrown himself into his work. It needs to be done, anyway, and it means he doesn't have to deal with his own feelings on the matter. It's win-win, really.

And so, anyone out in the gardens today will find red tulip-like flowers sprouting everywhere, look closely enough and there's a slight glow to them. A few flowers are also blooming, revealing small white eggs on spindly legs within them. The googies, freshly brought into the world, are all heading over to where Bunnymund is sitting, pots of paint beside him as he goes through the labourous task of painting each googie, then sending them down inside the safety of his burrow. To await their big day.

Of course, to those who don't believe in the Easter Bunny, they don't see him. As he paints, his journal is open beside him, so he can listen to the casual chatter of the residents, a splatter of paint occasionally hitting the page and soaking into the paper as he works
]

That whole dodgy Holly Peaks mess put me behind schedule. It's not like I can access my realm here, y'know. Everything has to be done by paw. But if it thought it could put me off, then that plan went down the gurgler.

[Another paint splatter, then a sigh. He can't keep his mind off things as much as he'd like to] Anyhow mates. Have any of you heard about Jack Frost? Mother Goose?

Painting eggs, bringing spring, dealing with your opposite. You keep a busy schedule.
whistles_the_blues: (I did.)

Sounds like that's your favourite part of the job.
whistles_the_blues: (This time listen carefully)

I just did.

I'm sure they appreciate it. [Totally not including himself in that, no way.]
whistles_the_blues: (Daaaaaaaad you're embarrassing me!)

...

Don't you have work to do?
whistles_the_blues: (I did.)

I see, literally.

Hm? Nothing in particular... Actually, there was this rabbit that spoke to me about a song and then refused to tell me how it went. I thought that was very rude.

[A perfect deflection, I think so.]

Well, I tried.
