prompt 4 - tell about a time your kalon made a bet with a friend that they lost.
rudy & venita - 245 words

venita and rudy stood outside the tavern, watching the other pairs and groups stroll in. rudy brushed a strand of hair out of his face, and turned to venita with a smirk.
"i bet i can get someone's number before you can." the girl recoiled. making a game out of something so... serious? it was just like him to do that. "i'll give you five bucks if you win."
maybe it wouldn't hurt. both of them were extremely single, and besides- she could benefit from letting loose a little bit.
she flashed the slightly taller kalon a smile. "fine. but don't come crying to me when nobody wants to talk to you."
rudy's eyes seemed to sparkle. it was on.

yikes.
venita must have been having bad luck. yep, that was it, she told herself. she was usually quite the charmer, but every time she got into conversation with anyone, she froze up.
guys, gals, non-binary kals- she couldn't seem to make any of them swoon. she was nearly about to try and make another move with someone until it came to an end.
rudy seemed to glide across the floor, his grin lighting up the whole room. he stopped as he met with venita, and turned around to wave to a lanky boy sitting across the room.
he slammed his phone down in her hand, and laughed. "you owe me five. maybe it'll help me out on my date this friday."
she groaned.

Day 04
Kalon(s) used: Leon

Time seems to go slowly. Sweat rolls down his face as he lifts him paw full of jelly beans to his face. Under normal circumstances, this would have been wonderful, but not today. After all, Leon just lost the bean bamboozle challenge and all the left over jelly beans now all goes into his mouth. He hated all the wrong flavors saved for maybe toothpaste.. but everything else yuck no thanks. Not only that, he also dislikes the black licorice jelly beans and half of his pawful is that jelly beans. He closes his eyes and shoves the jelly beans into his mouth. As the loser rules says, he chews the jellybeans for a solid ten seconds before swallowing. After this, he vows never to challenge the jelly beans again

Prompt 4: The Rabbit
Featuring Pip

Pip and one of his best friends Mark sat underneath the pomegranate tree by the small creek. The sun twinkled above through the cracks of the leaves. The wind blew a nice cool breeze, the grass was soft and covered in morning dew. It was peaceful with the sound of rushing water in the creek beside them.

Pip had gone over to visit his pal in the morning. When he arrived, Mark enthusiastically beckoned him to come over, excitedly showing that the pomegranate tree had grown up and now bloomed bright big juicy red pomegranates. Pip hurried over and ran through his house and to the backyard where he followed the small trail that led to the tree. It was still early in the morning and the sun was just rising up, the dew hung on the moist grass as birds sand above. The trickling sound of the water from the creek eventually faded with the background as Mark plucked two big pomegranates from the tree. He handed one to Pip and broke his in half. Inside was small pomegranates seeds, glistening in the sun. They looked so tasty to Pip. Copying Mark, Pip broke his in half, with the same result. Bright scarlett pomegranate seeds clustered together in groups. The aroma of pomegranates lingered in the air, making Pip’s stomach rumble. Hungrily, the two sat down and started munching on the seeds until all the juice was gonna and spitting the seeds back out. Suddenly, an idea formed in Pip’s head. Smiling mischievously, Pip got up nd stood in front of Mark who was viscously pulling out the small seeds.

“Hey Mark, I triple dog dare you to a pomegranate seed spitting contest! Winner gets to throw pomegranates at the loser!” Pip was so confident that Mark reluctantly agreed. First went mark, he chewed carefully before spitting it, the seed ailed over the creek barely. Pip was confident, he got this in the bag! As he chewed and just before he spit, a squirrel caught his eye. It shrieked and landed in the creek. He laughed so hard that he started choking on the seed. Coughing and wheezing, he laughed at the same time, the squirrel really distracted him! He finally spit out the seed, only a couple inches away from his feet. Laughing, he admitted defeat because of a silly squirrel, he got splashed with pomegranate juice.

" [ friendly, personable, sentimental ] "

This was the most embarrassing moment of young Skyler's life. There he stood upon a a pedestal of pure silver in one of the most elegant dresses known to kalon kind. Being of the male gender he felt utterly humiliated. His ears were lowered to the lowest point and the frown upon his face was seriously droopy. He started to growl just a bit as Versai sat in the background and laughed his fur off.
This punishment was done simply because Skyler challenged the the mobster to a gambling game which wasn't the smartest idea he's ever had.

"Smile for the camera Princey~" teased Versai as the prince merely glared towards him. No one could truly tell why the naive kal would challenge the gambling champion of the underground city, but the only thing he could truly be glad for, was the fact that his money wasn't the one being attacked here.

"I hate you.." muttered Skyler while crossing his arms in the fitting down. "How long do I have to wear this silky piece of crud?"
Versai chuckled with a snicker to follow. "Until I tell you to get down Princey boy.."
Skyler sighed, he knew that it was going to be a long day,

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━


it had to have been almost two decades ago hasn't it? but i still remember that day clearly in my head. i had just recently moved to california, i wasn't even a preteen. and i saw you there with your parents, and something fluttered within my body and made me nervous but enamored at the same time. i didn't know what the feeling was but i kinda liked it, i won't lie. then flash-forward a couple years and we're in school together, after having spent a summer away, seeing you for the first time after those months was just like that day.

my friends caught me eyeing you as you got out of the car, and jokingly said "bet you'll end up with her." and me, trying to play it off waged that i wouldn't, that it could never happen, that it'd be nothing short of a fairy tale.

but here we are, ava, living that fairy tale. I have to say, you're one bet i'm glad to have lost, because now i have everything.

Day 4: The Rabbit
Word count: 576
Kalons: Mabel and Bailey

(Note, this takes place in a gingerbread house making factory where they make premade sets so people only have to decorate.)

“Are you sure about this?” Bailey’s manager looked skeptically at Bailey.
“Heck yeah! I’m ready to take you down.” The greyish brown Kalon grinned, her paws still working as she talked. Bailey knew Mabel was the fastest builder in the factory, even if she had been promoted to shift manager, but she couldn’t bear to back down, even to an offhand comment in the lunchroom.
“Okay, but don’t get too excited, we still have a job to do, and it’s your fault if any of the Senior Shift Managers catch us.” Mabel sighed. She knew this was a terrible idea but couldn’t get herself to say no to her enthusiastic girlfriend.
“Fifteen minutes, that’s all. No one is scheduled to survey in for half an hour and you already doubled checked everything you needed to do!” Bailey whined slightly. “Don’t worry!”
Mabel nodded and switched places with Bailey’s neighboring coworker. The kalons around the conveyor belt whispered to each other excitedly. It was rare for excitement to happen in their job with its unending repetition, so even a little contest was a huge deal. The kalon Mabel had switched with pulled out a pen and paper to record the results.
“Okay,” he laughed, “15 minutes. Whoever builds the most gingerbread houses, while still keeping them neat and up to standards, wins. What you win is decided by popular vote after the fact during lunch tomorrow. Agreed?”
Mabel and Bailey nodded.
“Alright, 3...2...1… go!”
Things were timed perfectly as the machine lights in the room went off, signaling the next batch of unconstructed houses were coming in. The two kalons began.

Bailey’s paws spun, piping white frosting, placing pieces of gingerbread together and holding the finished piece to the packaging kalons.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on. Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
Bailey didn’t dare even peak at Mabel’s progress, not wanting any distractions. She had to do this. She had to beat Mabel and become known as the fastest builder. Why? Was it pride? No, it was something else, Bailey couldn’t quite put her paw on it. She just knew.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
How many had she made so far? Bailey had no idea how much time had passed, nor how many houses had passed her paws.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
How much time was left? Bailey started to lose her confidence as the left roof panel fell off the house she was building. “Darnit!” She mumbled, frantically trying to reattach it.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
Frost, place, hold to dry, pass on.
“Time!” Someone called out. Bailey gasped and took a step back, a kalon who was on break taking her place.
“H-how did I do?” She said, watching Mabel walk over, her hairnet perfectly in place compared to Bailey’s lopsided one.
The scorekeeper didn’t say anything, hold the suspense as long as he could.
“Bailey, you made 24 houses, which is great!” Bailey grinned, delighted at her accomplishment. Mabel said nothing.
“Mabel you made… 33 houses. The area went silent.
The only sounds made came from busy paws and the machinery.
“I… I lost,” Bailey said flatly, utterly defeated.
Mabel put an arm around Bailey.
“You did great, you just need more practice.”
Bailey shook her off and walked back to the conveyor belt, claiming her place again.
“Yeah… more practise.”

prompt four. // areater // " the candy shop debate " // 299 words // starring savannah and micyclenjamin's sienna

"i bet you can't find more than five kalons in this room who like pineapple on pizza," sienna challenged, prodding savannah with a pink paw. the two had a long-standing argument about whether pineapple belonged on pizza and it had gotten pretty heated while they waited in line at the candy shop. savannah blew a bubble from the gum in her mouth - don't worry, she planned to pay for it - and let it pop before proclaiming, "it's a bet! loser has to buy the other's candy." she proudly strutted around the shop, a bag of gummy bears clutched in her paw, and asked each and every kalon in the store. some kals gave her weird looks, but once she explained they understood. "that's four kalons!" she bragged to her adoptive sister, lashing her tail triumphantly. a group of kits were huddled in the corner, gawking at the chocolate selection, and she was convinced at least one of the had to take her side. she was going to buy so many gumballs! "hey, what's the best pizza topping?" she asked with a grin. the six kits stared at her for a moment, and then all spoke at the same time. "more cheese!" - "pepperoni for sure." - "bacon!" - "bell peppers." - "nothing!" - "sprinkles."
sprinkles? who picked sprinkles? anyways, it didn't really matter - it didn't have to be their favorite, just one they liked. "but pinapple in pizza is pretty good, right?" she pressed. they all stuck their tongues out. "ew, pinapple's the worst," one of them laughed as they got in line.
from behind her, she heard sienna cackling. "you lose!" savannah turned around with a grumpy expression on her face as sienna picked up a bag of hershey kisses and handed it to her. "thanks for covering the bill," she smirked proudly.
