So, no Easter event this year, or ?

Personal Easter memory that was awoken & went too far when I wrote it

Spoiler

Ugh, those things bring to mind the past years from waaaaay ago. Exfriend bragged about how she had gone to the other school because her mom works there and on her way out she had gone and grabbed all the tiny hidden chocolate eggs that were going to be a big event for the high schoolers. It was gonna cheer up their day, but nope, she had gone, grabbed all of them from their hiding places, bragged about it and tried to 'share her victory'. I declined and now years later. Man. If I had been a person with power over her (she was always picking fights with someone and it was better to just roll your eyes at what she did most of the time and hang around the other peeps etc. the group had kinda formed around me so it was easy for me to go chatter with the 'shunned' one when she had somehow lost her temper and started a fight. Heck, she unfriended me immediately when I told her to not force others to pick classes that would almost ruin their grades just because SHE wanted to go to X class. Screw her for that and ignoring my existence for the rest of her life I think (seriously, her English writing had clear remarks to all our other friends, but somehow I was not included. Hmmmm.) Wouldda told her to get her butt back to the other school and put the eggs back. I might have told her that but eh, she looked at me bad when I broke the rule of 'no-one can go talk to X' and probably wouldn't listen. Bro was a highschooler and after the day we shared words and yeah people knew after that that someone had been a mean prick thief

Stilllllll, I'm not religious in 90% of any way. Yeah school had us do stuff and our culture has Lutherian stuff, like some holidays, but we never took them religiously, they were always just fun events, Christmas was about snow, family, good food and presents. Easter is for fun decorations, bunnies, chicks, easter grass, 'pajunkissat', witches and black cats (Finnish tradition perhaps) & chocolate. And I'll keep thinking of 'em as fun vacation/holiday events xD

Anyway, so, what creatures ya'll thinking? We've had bunnies and chicken, chicks and dragon bunnies. I'd kinda like to see witches but that's seriously probably #JustFinlandThings but mmmmmmmh would be cool. I thought of chocolate kangaroos or such (Chocoroos x2 ) a year ago but we've since had kangaroo donis so who knows

I hope we get more bunny critters, i don't care that we've had a ton, i love them (my rabbit army demands MOAR BUN ). I also wouldn't say no to more playful variants on "easter/spring creature" themes like the sceaps/luparies, and the wolpertingers.

it's definitely a bit early to worry about it, as has been mentioned the spring/easter event usually happens closer to (i doubt there will be gifting since someone mentioned it up thread- the next gifting event is usually for the magiversary in may).

Reima - Are the witches and black cats in any way related to Walpurgisnacht, or are they actually part of Easter?

I wouldn’t mind seeing new Jackalopes, or maybe a different kind of duck creature, or even goats! but I’m sure whatever we get is going to be fun!

Hmmmm, Valpurin yö
They are somewhat connected to Vappu which is the event and stuff we have to go to the doors of others as witches and get candy - we don't have Halloween, Aaaaand it's for kids only pretty much, I don't think most people care these days

Might be a thing, but we certainly have candy that has a witch theme in it for Easter

I would not mind getting literal Peep-like things as a creature.

[pegasi1978]

We have the Pygmy Phoenix and the Meep...they are very peep-like

[Reima]

Marshmallow creatures? Egg creatures? How about those?

MFKNFKJDSNFKJ You're right. I even have a few. oops!!

Now I'm genuinely surprised it hasn't started yet.

[himehana]

I"m not. I feel they tend to do events as close if not on the day the holiday starts. I would have been pleasantly surprised had it started this early.
