"I admit, I am a little nervous for today.
Well, no, scratch that,
I'm very nervous. What if the gods give me a terrible divine name? I feel
Like I've been hearing stuff
Like that happen lately on the news and stuff.
But, I just brush it off as the news reporters being silly.
Ehe, I'm certainly going to be called Farmbu, right? Like,
Come on! Look at me! I'm practically
Already a top tier farmer! Every day for the past ninety five years, I've practically worked to the bone here! After
Lessons, where would I go? The farm! I graduated twenty five years ago, of course,
Lopvampas leave school at around seventy five, so
Every single day since my graduation, I've
Devoted my entire days to
Farming! So, I'm going to be called Farmbu, right? Farmer Bunny? I
Am certain that the Divine Seed Bunny has this practically wrapped into their
Robe at this point!
Maybe I should put out some cabbages for them, too! I have this in the
Bag! I most certainly will be given the epithet Farmer!
Uuuh, oooh, I can feel it now! This is my
Rite of passage
In my life! Hehe, I'm
Going to go into the barn as soon as I wake up! I can feel it, this birthday is going to be amazing!
Hehe, Farmbu is such a good name for me! I can't wait!
This will be the best divine naming ceremony ever! My
Rite of passage
Is almost here! I'm
Going to finally reach the century mark.
Hehe, adulbunhood, here I come! And,
This Farmbu will become the best farmer ever!
Probably. I don't know, we'll see. I feel
Like there's always someone better!
Eh, anyway, I
Am so going to be called Farmbu, I have no
Shadow of doubt here! I am so ready for
Everything! This will be legendary!"
Pop.
Something popping as the bun woke up that morning, the sun was practically shining over Siorc's head. It was finally the day! On this day, the twenty seventh day of the fourth month! As of this second, the seventh hour of the day, he is officially one hundred years old! The century club, an adultbun. Goodbye childhood, he is officially of age!
Ripping off the twenty six on the calendar, the bun hummed a little tune. Three hours to go until his ceremony! The mangoes were in the fridge, right? Oh, gosh! What if they weren't any good? Will Divisee be upset? He'd better check them before heading to the barn! But, that can wait. Time to get ready for today!
Little bubble bath taking him away, the young adult kept humming. His first day in the adult world! In the next one hundred eighty minutes, his true name will make rounds across the village, Farmbu! Hehe, that name, it was making his cheeks get all sparkly! Hopping towards the mirror, the vampa danced.
Grey shirt with the text, Ready For Fun in all capital letters and a gleeful face on the chest area, the farmer slapped his cheeks. He's ready. Knee length skirt fired up and ready to go, the green smiley face hairpins and earrings were clicked on. Oh, he's so ready! Strutting towards the kitchen, the room lit up against the sunlight.
Pop.
Pop.
Pop!
"Happy birthday, Siorc!" the family cried in unison.
Talkmaster B out in front of him, the bun grinned ear to ear. Woah! Everyone was awake already? He can't believe it! Turning the knobs, a dancing smile face had been drawn on the screen, but he shook the creature. Was that a little too enthusiastic? Maybe so. Try again, come on. More subdued face gracing the world, the voice released itself.
[Thank you! I'm officially an adultbun as of today!] A feminine voice read out through the Talkmaster B.
"I can't believe it, Siorc's one hundred years old!" Strix cried, paws on the side of his face. "Your divine name ceremony is in three hours. You ready?"
[Ready as I'll ever be! In just three hours, I'll finally be Farmbu officially!] A feminine voice read out through the Talkmaster B.
"Where do you want us to sit? Divisee probably wants to see you alone, but we'll make sure to stay somewhere close," Deigr said.
[Wait by the picnic tables! That's the best seat in the farm after all!] The robotic voice exclaimed.
"Okay, you got it, birthday bun," Deigr replied, thumb stuck up. "Anyway, it's time for breakfast. We made your favorite!"
Cherry beef biscuits waiting for him, the bun tried to keep himself from salivating. Woah, they made these for him? Is he dreaming? Today was going to be the best day ever! Biting into the tarty goodness, tears streamed down his face. Gosh, when was the last time he got to eat one of these? Oh, his last birthday, right. He's in heaven!
[These are the best!] A robotic voice exclaimed.
"Well, they came from the best, after all!" mama cried. "You've been managing the farm so well, honey!"
Cleaning up the table, the vampa curled up on the couch. Silly morning cartoons, the young adult giggled. Two hours until the ceremony! Can time move a little faster, pretty please? O, Divine Seed Bunny, please bring him to the tenth hour! But, he giggled such thoughts away. Haha, as if the divine could hear him in here.
Knock, knock.
Mama getting the door, his pals had soon arrived at the party. Everyone sure was coming early today! Maybe the divine name ceremony would be pushed up to the ninth hour, too? Nah, that's probably not going to happen. Removing himself from the couch, his eyes wandered. Is that his cake? Gosh, can evening come, pretty please?
"Happy birthday, Siorc," Zhulong said.
"Happy birthday, Siorc," Niquel said. "Welcome to adultbunhood."
[Thank you! I'm gonna be the best adultbun ever!] The robotic voice exclaimed.
"I'm sure you will be," Zhulong replied, laughing. "Let's go pick some mangoes."
[Kay!] The robotic voice cried.
Juicy ripe mangoes picked one after another, the bun's tailed swished from behind him. One hour left! He'd better prepare himself now. Dropping a bowl of mangoes in the hay bales, the young adult cleaned up the farm for the time being. It's coming, it's almost here. The time will soon be upon him.
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick tock.
Twenty minutes to go, the young adult dropped everything. He should prepare himself a little early just in case! Sitting on top of the hay bales, the bun placed his hands into a praying position. Good morning, godbus, can they hear him? As of today, he's an adultbun, god bless! Taking a deep breath, the bells were ready to ring.
Ring, ring, ring.
It's the tenth hour.
It's the tenth hour!
Work time, work time!
Bells ringing, the young adult brushed his legs against the hay bales. It's time, it's time! In less than sixty seconds, his divine name ceremony is about to begin! Any second now. Ten, nine, eight, seven. Oh, gosh, just counting is making his heart flutter! Six, five, four, three, two, one. Any second now, the light's coming!
Blinding white light overtaking the barn, the bun placed his palm over his eyebrows. Gah, why is it so bright? That's the descension of a deity, he guessed! Everything dissipating quicker than a blink, his boots kept popping upon the hay bale. He's here, He's here! Divisee has finally arrived!
Floating at the top of the barn had been a very powerful dark skinned divine rabbit person. Majestic dark silver hair pulled into two long, stringy twintails, his eyes had been the same shade as his locks. Star shaped pupils shining like the sun, he adorned a long white robe. Angelic wings behind them, the bun tried to hide a squee. There he is, Divisee! Bowing down, a goofy smile painted him a new shade of pink.
"Hmm, so this one's today's divine name ceremony, I see," Divisee said in a booming tone. "Hello there, dear Lopvampa, One congratulates thee on reaching adulthood."
[Thank you so much! I'm so ready for this! There's mangoes over there, enjoy!] A robotic voice cried.
"Very well, one thanks thee for the offering," Divisee responded, floating downward. Munch, munch, munch. "Quite impressive, these taste absolutely scrumptious."
Godbun floating back upward, the vampa tried to keep himself down to earth. It's time, it's almost time! In a second, the spotlight will be over him, and he will be called Farmbu! Here it comes, three, two, one. Rainbow beam above him, the accidental squee let itself out. Oh, gosh, here it comes!
"I bestow upon thee--" Divisee called out, hands stretched out.
Here it comes!
Oh, gosh, here it comes.
He bestows upon thee, the epithet, Farmer Bunny, Farmbu for short!
"--The epithet, Unhappy Bunny, Unhapbu for short!" A cheeky smile appeared on his face.
Crack, crunch, click, kaboom.
Bonk.
Rolling off the hay bales, the rainbow faded. Hey, wait, hold on a second. This is a joke, right? It had to have been. That's right, he's pulling his leg! This is just a pre ceremony warmup! That's right, of course. A joke, a jest, something funny before the real deal! Totally. Scribbling away, he let out a quiet laugh.
[You're joking, right? Come on, give me my real divine name!] A robotic voice read out.
"Silly Lopvampa, that is your divine name," Divisee said, smile on his face. "From this day forward, this Lopvampa before me shall be known as Unhappy Bunny! Unhapbu for short!"
Crack.
Godbun laughing up a storm, the mirror shattered. No, what? Why? This is his divine name blessed by the godbuns? Why? His heart raced as the questions kept going. Please, this has to be some kind of prank! He was a farmer! Every single day of this life since he was five he would pick the fruits and veggies from the trees and garden! Very funny, Divisee, he's laughing so hard right now.
[No! This can't be! Please, can we do the ceremony again? I'm not unhappy!] A robotic voice cried.
"Sorry, the ceremony's over!" Divisee said, smirking. "Congratulations, Unhapbu. And once again, welcome to adulthood. See you soon when it's time for your job assignment, bye bye!"
Godbun floating away, the world shattered. Tears streaming down his face, he rolled up into a ball. Why? Why? Why did the gods do this to him? Is this a joke? Was he too hopeful? He could feel everything ready to rot from within. Crawling further inward into a pod, his head raced. Why? Why?
Why?! Why?! Why did the gods do this to him, why? What about him is unhappy? Why? Please, he wants a do over! There's no way he'll let this be his fate! World around him shattering into a million pieces, everything broke. Feeling everything grow dark, he closed his eyes, temporary dream world of rivers setting in.
He won't accept this!
He absolutely won't accept this fate!
