ooc: Fujiko knows religion not at all, some about myths, and mostly she's confused REALLY confused

Today is Easter back home! And I have no idea if people here celebrate it but I figured I do so others can celebrate it with me if they want!!

So we'd be like coloring hard-boiled eggs and like Akito said, hiding chocolate filled plastic eggs and having kids find them. And there's all kinds of stuff about birth because it's Buddha's birthday!! And rebirth because Jesus came back from the dead... which makes him like a zombie! And I guess we gotta hide the eggs because he's a special zombie! That eats eggs instead of brains. And his special zombie-ness is why we eat motzah ball soup and unlevened bread. Because he was on a special zombie diet. Or maybe it was Buddha who was. I forget.

And the then gods gave us candy for being good and so we all had to keep our karma in balance or we wouldn't get any chocolate because the Easter bunny would eat it all. :(

Anyways...

Happy Easter!

[[ooc: yes I do know most of the religious origins of the actual SEPERATE holidays but this is meant as a joke and I'm really really really sorry if it offended anyone. Feel free to smack some sense into her if you want.]]

I like this definition of Easter. It fits with my worldview. Where's that chocolate again?

[doubleppk]

I dunno. The Gods give them out... by appeasing them... or buying them. Whichever.

[totallypolska.livejournal.com]

...that's totally all wrong.

[doubleppk]

... It is??

Shit. Which part? I never was good at religious studies as a kid.

haha, poor Robin has no idea that Fujiko has no idea. lolol

[history-pirate.livejournal.com]

That... sounds like an incredibly interesting holiday. What culture does it come from, exactly?

ooc: I am laughing WAY too much at this

[doubleppk]

I forget. Japanese? OH!! We should ask the countries who invented it!!

[heracleskarpusi.livejournal.com]

I love Πάσχα. The gods are kind to give candy.

[doubleppk]

Yes. :D Yes they are.

I can't read Greek, I'm sorry, what does that say?

[chii-luvs-u.livejournal.com]

Will Chii get candy too?

[janken-gon.livejournal.com]

Zombies?

[doubleppk]

Well not like other zombies. Jesus is a SPECIAL zombie. He doesn't hurt people. He's too pacifistic and stuff. He's all "turn the other cheek" and things. And he doesn't eat brains, he eats eggs.

[longnosefangirl.livejournal.com]

...That is an interesting holiday.

[doubleppk]

Isn't it? :D I wonder which country it comes from though.

[suckmyflame.livejournal.com]

Is there more than one zombie?

[doubleppk]

No. Just Jesus. And he's a good zombie, so don't hurt him.

[bakudan-shounen.livejournal.com]

I'm... not so sure I want to celebrate this holiday very much.

[doubleppk]

What?! Why not?!

[sstolerate.livejournal.com]

Er...I don't think that's how it happened Fujiko...

[doubleppk]

Are you sure? A lot of people seem to be saying that...

[amisae.livejournal.com]

Yes, Happy Easter.

[doubleppk]

Happy Easter to you too kind person who didn't seem to think I messed up the story! <3

[segnato.livejournal.com]

I am not religious.

But that sounds ridiculous.

[doubleppk]

Yeah... most religious stories do come off sounding pretty crazy. But you know what they say, it's the crazy stories that always end up true to bite you in the ass.

Or something.

[chocogun.livejournal.com]

You really are in touch with religion I see.

Either way, Easter is indeed a stupid Holiday, considering it doesn't match with the belief even if priests try so hard. I mean, easter date changes every year, and as far as I know when you die, the date doesn't change. If you die on the 3rd, next year we are NOT going to remember you on 24th.

But hey, Christian religion is a mix of pagan holidays, so whatever.

[doubleppk]

It's based on Jewish calendar though right? Because it has to happen with Passover? 'Cause that's when he died.

Oh. Well they're fun. ^_^ So is that where the bunny god and chocolate comes from?

(ooc: she's so amused)

[saint-rosette.livejournal.com]

...
It's not exactly like that, Jesus was not a zombie of any kind hahaha, I guess I souldn't be amused as a nun but oh well.

Re: (ooc: note: it was 3 days Jesus was dead)

[doubleppk]

He wasn't? But he was dead? And then he rose again? OH! Was he a skeleton like Brooke?! I mean that'd be pretty fast to turn into a skeleton though right? Only the one week.

Also... if he wasn't after eggs Why do we hide them?

(ooc: she's too polite to point out that Fujiko's is wrong XD)

[moemoe-love.livejournal.com]

..
Happy Easter Fujiko-san!

Re: (ooc: XD)

[doubleppk]

Happy Easter Renge-chan!!

Would you like to Easter Egg hunt with us or are you feeling a little old for that?

Happy Easter, Fujiko-san!

[blueseaexplorer.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, in Lyvneel we celebrated Easter. The children always enjoy it for the chocolate and egg hunts of course! I remember it being a very lively celebration.

I was never really a religious man, but I can appreciate people's different views of religion, however they interpret it. I'm sure you are not too far off, though I don't know about the zombie thing. I'd say that he was revived in spirit rather than a physical form.

Also, if you could use some assistance in setting things up, I would be happy to help out.

<3!

[doubleppk]

Well everyone revives in spirit don't they? So what made Jesus so special? Unless he was a special egg-eating zombie. That'd be pretty special right?

Oh! That's really nice of you but it's no trouble. If you could ask Gintoki and the others if they'd like to come though that'd be a help. And maybe bring some chocolate. You'd be surprised how much Lambo and Killua can go through in 4 days.

[shootingstripes.livejournal.com]

...okay.

I like easter, anyway. Specially chocolate bunnies.

I eat their heads first.

[doubleppk]

Me too!! <3

And gummi bears. I like to line them up in families and eat them all at once.

But not peeps though.
