Another holiday ((Activity, open RP, Great Hall))

So, it's that time of year when chocolate bunnies remind us that the Romans killed this guy and he didn't oblige them by staying dead. Inconvenient for the Romans, rather important to many others.

But, one of the traditions is eggs. Just what the eggs have to do with anything is up to interpretation...unless you're one of those 'country' people who believe this time of year is to celebrate fertility.

Maddie, for her part, just thinks colored eggs are lovely. She has convinced the house elves to boil her up a few hundred dozen to decorate.

The mun is dreadfully lazy, though, and has yet to decorate Maddie's egg. For shame.

But, there are plenty more for everyone to decorate. And, perhaps, even, the mun can be convinced to do some work.

Maddie grinned. "It's been a long time since I've painted eggs, but it seemed like a good idea."

And, now the mun regrets the utterly lazy coloring. Maybe she'll color another one when she has time.

"It's important to pause occasionally and paint some eggs," reflected Michael with a little smile. "So what do you do when you're not learning magic, Maddie?"

"I was an investigative reporter before I came here. Now, I find myself a bit at loose ends."

That, and everything she's tried to investigate has rather prickly people surrounding it...

And the mun detests socking herself that much.

"Sounds like interesting work," he remarked. "One would think that you'd find plenty of peculiar people to investigate here. Were you one of those that just show up, or did you intend to come here?"

"Just showed up. I was on my way to America and ended up here." She shrugged. "Also, ten years ahead of myself. That was a bit of a shock," she admits with a laugh.

"Hogwarts works on a time all of its own." The flower on the egg was turned a lovely rosy red. "I can understand it's confusing when you're not used to it."

"It seems to work by its own rules, too," she commented dryly.

The mun knows these rules. They are to embarrass and tease Maddie. And, hey, there was a normal tag from her...I must have been tired...heee.

"Yes. But they're not impossible to understand." Michael has two jobs. One is being the friendly father figure to angel trainees, the other is to be cryptic. If he knew anything at all about the castle's dastardly plans, he wasn't telling.

The middle of the flower was painted in gold. "So, what shall we do with these eggs once they're all painted?" he asked jovially, leaving the mysteries of Hogwarts unsolved once more.

Good thing he's not telling. Maddie doesn't need to know. Life is better that way.

"Well, there's a talking sunflower who wanted to do an egg hunt," she says.
