Room 310, Sunday night

[lordofthecats]

It was a shame Snarf was still on his trip to the new Thunderan home world. Without anyone to supervise him, weetiny Lion-o was practicing his writing. He'd managed to write his name on all four walls of his room, stopping only when he ran out of surface area that he could reach.

But that was okay, because now he had more time to work on the blanket fort he was constructing between the two beds.

[Door and post are open!]

"But if a monster decides to live under the bed, then he's gonna get all your candy!" Ah, the dilemmas of childhood.

"How would the monster get under the bed if I keep the closet door closed all the time?" asked Lion-o.

[heromaniac]

Momoko shrugged. "There's more than one monster, isn't there? What if this one doesn't like closets? Or what if it's a ghost!"


[and I am off to bed. SP?]

"There's... more than one monster?" asked Lion-o with a gulp.

[heromaniac]

"Nuh huh! There's lots!" She settled herself in the fort and counted on her fingers all the monsters she'd heard about. On TV, of course. "There's oni and kitsune and kappa and ghosts and tanuki and, and... a whole bunches of otherses! Some of them are good monsters though. And I think kappa only live in the water, so we should be safe from them. They have bowls on their heads!"

Lion-o just stared at her. "Your monsters all have really funny names," he said.

[heromaniac]

Momoko nodded. "That's so they won't be so scary when you talk abouts them." She reached into her pocket and handed him a tootsie roll. "But some monsters are good. Maybe only good monsters live under your bed and that's why they don't eat your candy?"

[lordofthecats.livejournal.com]

"That makes sense," said Lion-o, unwrapping the tootsie roll. "Besides, I've hid under the bed plenty of times and haven't seen any monsters. It's not scary under there at all."

[heromaniac]

"Then it probably is a good monster." Momoko had her own candy unwrapped in seconds and was chewing on it as she spoke.

"Sometimes good monsters fight bad monsters so it's good to have one! You should make sure you give it a thank you snack or something. But not the one in the closet."

"What do you think monsters like to eat?" asked Lion-o, though his words were garbled while he chewed on his tootsie roll.

[heromaniac]

That was a good question, and obviously required another piece of candy. She handed one to Lion-o and quickly set to her own.

"Well, it doesn't eat candy. So maybe real foods? Like milk or a san'wich? Those are yummy."

[lordofthecats.livejournal.com]

"Or milk and cookies?" said Lion-o. "I like cookies."

[heromaniac]

"Me too! I like cookies alots! Almost as much as cake! Do you think the monster will?"

[lordofthecats.livejournal.com]

"He should if he's a good monster!" insisted Lion-o. "Bad monsters probably eat yucky stuff."

[heromaniac]

"Ah! Like stinky socks and dirt!" Momoko was sure of this, yes. "You're right! Do you have any cookies?"

[lordofthecats.livejournal.com]

Lion-o wibbled. "I don't have any cookies," he said.

[heromaniac]

"It's okay, don't cry! The monster is a good one! He unnerstands!" Momoko leaned forward and tried to give Lion-o a hug.
