Thank God the egg hunt thing is over with. Don't get me wrong. It looked like everyone who was participating was having a lot of fun... when they managed to stay the right shape, size, and species... but I just couldn't get anywhere near those things. After everything that happened with the snakes last month, I think I might still have some latent egg-related trauma. If someone told me I turn beet red or get the thousand-yard stare when big plates of boiled eggs are served at mealtimes, I probably wouldn't be surprised.

It all worked out for the best in the end, though. Avoiding the hunt gave me lots of time to study and practice Apparition. With any luck, I won't be splinching myself when the Trace gets lifted from me tomorrow. Easter just had to fall on my birthday this year, didn't it?

I told you, the bed's not for sleeping. It's just for the purpose of having a private place.

[John opens his mouth, about to chastise about how saying things like that still makes it sound so much like something else, but... well, they've already been over that. And it looks like it's not about to stop anytime soon.]

Alright, yeah. Let's go and get upstairs. I think I've had enough knowing glances from the waitstaff for one evening.

You worry far too much about what other people think.

[He gets up to go with him to the room.]

Does it really impact your life in such a meaningful way?
