Somehow, Xander had made himself a life on the island. Between Spike, his friends, the building crew, the club and classes, he barely ever had any down time and he actually liked it more then he thought he would at home. But even though classes were out for the moment, Xander didn't really find himself any more time to relax due to Spike's growing distance. Something was going on, Xander knew, but he was just rebuffed every time he asked. So he just...didn't anymore and that in itself took up more time then he thought. That and making up the time Spike should have been spending with William. If Spike was going to neglect his son, well...Xander was just going to have to make up for it. And as a surprise to himself, he was growing fond of little Will.
So that was why Xander had taken today off from everything and decided to use his new tools to make some toys for the little guy. He'd set himself in a shady patch of trees by the beach, his tool box on one side of him and a pile of wood scraps on the other. And in front of him was his model.
"Jesse! Hold still! I give you a very tasty pile of lettuce to eat and you insist on trying to eat sand. What is the matter with you?"
Sitting up on his knees, Xander was trying very hard to keep the white rabbit focused. Usually all his pet wanted to do was eat, like rabbit like master or something, but of course when he wanted the rabbit to hold still so he could carve a rabbit for William, Jesse was the most distracted rabbit alive. As Xander pulled Jesse away from the sand he'd been attempting to slurp up, he accidentally head butted his owner in the face causing Xander to drop him. Now free, Jesse went hopping after a butterfly.
"No! Come back!" Xander grabbed for the rabbit, but only ended up sprawled on his belly, watching the white rabbit hop away.
