Dear Noobcake.
I think I will die. My heart feels like it has been ripped out. Beauty...her name made my head spinning with confusement. What was going on?!
Jr. rocketed into my room. Has that kid ever learned what personal space means?!
No wait he hasn't. He's a month old and just got into preschool, dur. He has jelly alllllll over his paws.
Of course he clambers up on to my lap where I was sitting.
I was going to shove him off. Ewww my fur...so stickyyyyy. But I knew I'd get in trouble. Grrr.
"Story, Falbur, story!" he trilled.
Yes. He can't say Xialburg.He calls me Falbur. At least he's close.
I looked down at him. He is light green now with faint green swirls around his yellow eyes. Green and yellow...like someone didn't flush and then someone had asparagus...
Well that's a pleasant thought to have around a toddler.
"I'll tell you a story, Greenbutt," I said. The kid wasn't insulted. It was his name after all.
"There once was a princess," I said. "And a prince."
"Was the prince green?!" said Jr. eagerly, his eyes wide. "Notcoolifnotgreeeeeeen!!!!"
I smiled. "Yes, he was green. Well, the princess was very beautiful, and many, not green princes," (Jr. stuck his little tongue out at that) "Tried to get her to marry them. But the princess said no."
"Yay, prinnycess!" cheered Jr.
"Well one day the prince of the next land came over, and they talked. The princess liked talking, not just the roses and the presents."
"I like presents," Jr. pointed out.
"But you're not a princess," I laughed.
"Prinnycess!" Jr. insisted.
"Well, one day, the princess's evil cousin," (Jr. gasped with horror) "Came, and didn't want her cousin to marry, or even be nice to boys. So she spread lies about the prince, and he was thrust out of the kingdom."
I stopped. Jr. blinked. He started bouncing up and down. "Tell me the rest Falbur tell me the rest!"
I faltered. "I don't know the rest."
Jr. gave me an expression I never expected on such a young face. "Finish story tomorrow Falbur, idiot."
I smiled. Yes. I had taught him all he knew.
Jr. leaped away, and tumbled out of the door, leaving jelly paw prints on my floor and my front.
I paused. I didn't know how the story would end. Because before I knew it, I had been telling a story about me and Beauty...and Heidi.
Suddenly, a red form with stitches and button eyes loomed outside my window.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGH!"
"Relax dude, you scream like a girl,' smirked Gothie, his shark teeth revealing as he slid into my open window.
'Not cool, man,' I gasped. 'You could be the cover art for that new zombie movie...'
'More like dolls come to life movies,' said Gothie, quite seriously.
I stared at him.
'I'm going to help you.' Was all he said.
AGH. Can't get Gothie's face suddenly appearing out of my head. I DO NOT SCREAM LIKE A GIRL.
See ya, Noobcake. Gotta do some stuff.
