11 - The truth

[gezellig]

[Phone]

I think what I miss most about home while being in Mayfield is my bunny.  His name is Poffertje because his tail makes me think of the little round pancakes -- they're really good, you know.  

Anyway, he's really good company and I like talking to him.  We have pretty long conversations and it's nice to hold him because he has really soft and fluffy fur.  I can tell he's listening when I talk to him because of the way he moves his nose and ears.  One of my favorite things is to take him on a walk with his bunny harness and watch him sniff in the grass. 

I know it's his favorite thing too.  

[There's a sigh over the line.]

And sometimes I miss zusterje.  One time when she fell asleep on the sofa I put Poffertje next to her and took a picture.  That way I could have both of my favorite cute things together at one time.  I wish I had that picture with me in Mayfield.

[ooc:  Zusterje is of course, Belgium.  Right now he's probably at a 2-3.]

[Canada is on her way outside to sit in the sun and sew for a while, so she's got her craft basket with her. She gets distracted listening to him on the phone, though, and by the time he's finished, she's just looking at him like his story is so sad it's breaking her heart a little.]

[Once the phone call is finished he'll sigh, going outside and lighting a cigarette.]

[She follows him, hesitating in the doorway.]

... Nederland?

[koyo]

Huh? I want to see that picture !

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Don't have it with me. It's under my pillow at home.

. . . wouldn't let you see it anyhow.

[encored]

[he promised himself he'd stay away from the phone today for his own sake but then he'd miss out on things like this. it's a relatively fair trade in his book.]

You don't come off as the fluffy bunny type at all, you know.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

They're my favorite animals. I have more than one at home.

[naicha]

Ehehe, Poffertje. That's a cute name! It's better than the other ones you come up with!

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

. . . they all have good names. Names that suit them.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Your bunny; that's right! I almost forgot about him. I really liked him, too...!

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

I hope he can come here. I have a few rabbits but I like him best.

[kleinefurstin.livejournal.com]

Maybe if he comes he can play with Bunny.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

You have a rabbit?

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

...

C... cute...

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

. . . did somebody say something?

[femtags.livejournal.com]

[Can you hear Minako going d'awwwww at you Netherlands?]

Who is zusterje?

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

She's my younger sister. Belgium.

I had a bunny. He was the cutest little creature, with his little nose and sweet eyes. Oh, yes, he was the kindest critter in the forest. He'd hide with me in the bushes and he'd twiddle his nose in just the right ways. He was warm and good and kind.



He died.

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

It was probably your fault.

[puppeteerings.livejournal.com]

[Lighthearted laughing.]

That's cute. They're both one of a kind?

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

In some ways. Poffertje is easier to get along with.

. . . how are you? I haven't seen you.

shut up this isn't late

[achromous]

That sounds cute! I'm not sure what a bunny is, some sort of animal? Like a Buneary, maybe, though I've only seen pictures.

Who's zusterje?

[She has to pronounce that very slowly.]

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

[What is a bunny? How can you even describe a bunny. . .]

They're small, cute animals. The best animal in the world.

And zusterje is my younger sister Belgium.

[gandere]

... You took a picture of someone while they're asleep?

[ She's totally judging you now. ]

[gezellighe.livejournal.com]

Just my sister. She's cuter when she's not talking.

[No shame.]
