[Video] Week 37 - Tuesday Evening
[Hi there people of Verdana. There is a man with a dog, both trying to look especially harmless. In fact the dog's main purpose on the screen is to reassure everyone that Atticus really is nothing to worry about.]
Well this has been barrels of fun, huh? [He can't hide the slightly sheepish look, he's trying really hard to though. Publicly taking the blame for the whole... altered time reality thing isn't something he's really looking to do but he's gotta know how much of this is him and how much is... anyone else.
Someone had to screw up something along the way right? It wasn't just him.]
Just out of curiosity did... anyone [And there's just enough emphasis on it that someone remarkably perceptive might catch the quiet anyone else that is faintly implied by his tone.] do anything in particular that might have caused any of... well... time shenanigans? Not the traveling bit but the arriving part of the deal.
[Private to Belle]
Hey, I know you're probably busy with all the changes but can Oberon hang out with you for a couple days? I guess the lakes are still intact but I've gotta see it for myself.
((OOC: Fari warning! Genesis might be threadjacking periodically as she is staying with Atticus now and likely hovering nearby laughing at him.))

[His daughter.]
More than just the Pooka were lost, and nothing was stopped. Putting something to sleep only stops it for so long.

[Startled and incredulous. He cocks his head to the side, looking magnificently confused.]
They don't have anything to do with time and they certainly aren't extinct- or even in danger.
[A pause, a sigh, and he scrubbed a hand over his face.]
Okay at least the Puca in my world. They're mischievous shape-shifting spirits that like to scare the crap out of people and give advice in riddles.
[video]
[There's a very subtle difference in the pronunciation.]
It's spelled differently.
Pooka were also shapeshifters, and warriors as well as rather clever engineers and gardeners. They were the ones charged with protecting the light from the beginning of the universe and keeping it alive. They look a great deal like oversized rabbits crossed with a kanagroo.

Bunny-Roos that protect "the light". [Someday he'd find someone from a normal world.] Right... that's a new one.
But hey people are from all kinds of different places so... if I'm believing in other planets and gods know what else I suppose Pooka aren't that odd.
