An Interview With Dustbunny

An Interview With Dustbunny

INTERVIEWER. All right, Dustbunny! The star of the show, eh? I know that I and so many others have been waiting for some gormaden representation, and now we have it front and center. How does that feel?

DUSTBUNNY. It was way cool! There were lights and cameras and actions everywhere! [Pauses, his eyes focused on something beyond.]

INTERVIEWER. Yeah, I bet that’s great. Now, um, we’ve only seen the first episode, this is just the premiere, but we know there are plenty more coming. We know David has stolen the crystal and Rayne has just joined the Explorer’s Guild, and we have a feeling they’re probably going to encounter each other again. Now, without giving too much away, could you maybe give us a hint of what’s to come?

DUSTBUNNY. We all die. [Something shifts in Dustbunny’s face. A darkness comes over him.]

INTERVIEWER. Excuse me? What?

DUSTBUNNY. We’re all going to die.

INTERVIEWER. Ha-ha, well, so much for not giving too much away, am I right? But truth be told, I really didn’t get those vibes from this show. Doesn’t seem like the type of broadcast to just kill off all of its child actors.

DUSTBUNNY. [Eyes glazing over, unblinking.] We’re all just marching toward the inevitability of the eternal sleep. All of us are mortal. What will we dream of in the great beyond?

INTERVIEWER. [Looking around.] Um, can I get someone over here? Is he okay?

DUSTBUNNY. [Voice distorting as he begins floating into the air.] We’re all going to die, Todd.

INTERVIEWER. Okay, this is getting strange. This is—aghh! Help! [Crashing sounds. Lightbulb exploding.]

Author’s Note: At this time, the investigation is ongoing. Todd is still missing. No further details can be discussed.
