DARQ: Catherine is busy behind the camera taking photos of my first Easter on Earth. She insisted on the palm-frond cross because it’s her Catholic tradition, but I was fascinated by my new clothes–and my Easter Bonnet! Here’s a close up of my chapeau (that’s “hat” in French, or at least that’s what Catherine said).
Now as you can see, the Easter Bunny left Catherine and her husband an Easter Basket full of colorful eggs, but because I threatened to catch and eat said white bunny, and I still don’t understand why rabbits are edible but the White Easter Bunny is not –
Anyway, said Easter Bunny left me a bag.
So I open the bag and what do I find?
A fish!
CATHERINE, snickering behind the camera: It’s no ordinary fish.
DARQ: I can see that, it’s covered with foil and it isn’t flexible like a real fish.
CATHERINE: So take the wrapper off.
DARQ: It’s Chocolate! Yum!!!! But I don’t think I’ll ever understand the Easter Bunny, who poops jelly beans and gives out baskets of eggs and stuff. Weird. Truly weird.
CATHERINE, grinning: Hey, Darq, since you were so intent on eating a White Bunny Rabbit, here’s my Easter gift to you.
DARQ: Other than my new outfit, you’re giving me another gift?
CATHERINE: Yes. Here’s a marshmallow Easter Bunny. One you can indulge your sweet tooth on.
DARQ: Great, a photo that shows off my new Easter Shoes!
CATHERINE, shaking her head: You and your shoes . . . Woman you are one shoe-a-holic!
HAPPY EASTER !
