[2] 71 Days Until Easter

[Well, that had been a week of ridiculousness, and Bunny had learned the rather harsh lesson that he was not as up to fighting as he was back on Earth. He really needed to work on that belief thing here. Maybe even try something for the other Guardians, should they ever show up. If theyw ere to protect the children here, they needed to be on better form than this]

Right. So I'm going to avoid mirrors in this place for a good long while. I hear that sort of thing is regular around here? How regular, exactly?

[Children]

All of you okay?

So is this Mr. North Santa Claus? Why is he named after a direction?

I have honestly never heard of that sort of interpretation. Either you are telling the truth, or you are bad at delivering very creative jokes. No offense.

No, it's just his name. Nicolas St. North. 'Santa Claus' is a name humans gave him, he didn't start out as Santa. We all had lives before we became who we are now.

[She is lucky she is a kid man, so lucky, or that would irritate the heck out of him] Just because you haven't heard about it doesn't mean it's not true.

[Forever a skeptic no matter how much she's seen.] No, I know that. If I didn't keep at least a bit of an open mind, there would be a lot that I could never accept even if it stared me right in the face.

But the Easter Bunny has to prove his existence, hmm?

Well, so would Santa Claus, if he showed up. I probably wouldn't be open even to that, if I had come here before I started playing Sburb.

I'll be sure to let him know that, if he bothers to show his face.

...Sburb?

It's a game that you can manipulate reality with...and destroy the world. But apparently you're supposed to make a new one by playing it.

If you think it sounds like poppycock, I won't be offended.

[He laughs a little]

I've lived for too long to think anything's 'poppycock', kiddo. Sounds like a heck of a game.

It's really alright if you don't believe me, though. I could hardly believe it all myself. To tell the truth, I'm glad to be out of it again.

I believe you. So are you out of it back home, or just while you're here?

Just here. I went back home recently, and...well. Let's just say that for a game, it wasn't so fun.

I'm real sorry about that. [And he sounds like he genuinely is] Is there any way to escape it?

[And he doesn't even know the worst of it!]

By winning it, I guess. But our session is all mussed up! Everything is dead and sad. We're supposed to be waiting for a gaggle of Gods, but I don't think they're ever going to show up.
