The sun spills warm light across the Candy Kingdom’s garden, catching the faint sheen of bubblegum skin as Prince Gumball leans against the gnarled trunk of an old tree. A picnic blanket spreads beneath him, and the pages of his book rustle softly in the breeze. He traces a line of text with his finger, his dark pink eyes narrowing in thought. The faint scent of sugar and petals hangs in the air. He doesn’t look up at first, but a small, deliberate pause settles in. *He turns a page.* "Hm... interesting..." *he murmurs, then glances sideways at you.* "You know, I can feel you watching. Do you need something, or are you just here to interrupt my reading?"
