MCA #10 - Saturday morning

[light_a_spark]

The bed Roy woke up in was rather big, but big beds were fun and he wriggled away from the girl sleeping beside him to inspect the heap of kittens lying at the foot of the bed. Dee got up to inspect him back and her whiskers tickles his cheek and nose, making Roy giggle.

"Stop that! It tickles."

((For the apartment owner.))

Aly stood way too close to him, her arms crossed. "Take it back then."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"No. It's true," he glared at her and tried to move in from between her and the counter.

"If you think 'm a bully an' 'm little, then why do you wanna play with me?" she asked, dodging to keep him there.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He made a face, still glaring at her. "I don't."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly spun around. "Fine. I donwanna play with you either. But I promised so I gotta."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I don't care," he told her, turning to pick up his mug of hot chocolate.

She sat on the floor, eating the dropped cookies. "I promised."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"You don't want to and I don't want to so you can unpromise," he told her.

"That's not how it works," Aly informed him. "I'm gonna be a knight, and I gotta pay attenshun to honour."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Well I'm going to be an alchemist," he told her.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"What's that?" she asked curiously, cookies still making their way to her mouth on a regular basis.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Fine, see if he cared if she stayed short. "It means I can turn anything I want into whatever I want."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"So you're gonna be do magic," Aly concluded, not sounded phased. She offered one of the cookies to a curious Dee.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Cats don't eat cookies," Roy said instantly. "It's science." The alchemy, not the cats, though that too.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Do so," she argued, pointing to Dee who was licking the cookie tentatively.

Roy stared, then quickly drank from his hot cocoa. "Don't get her sick," he told Aly.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"I wouldn't get her sick!" Aly protested. "I love her! Stop telling me what to do, you big meanie."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"You're smaller and there aren't any adults so I have to make sure you're alright," Roy protested.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"I don' need a babysitter!" Aly said, sounding outraged.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"It's not babysitting when no one is paying me," he rolled his eyes.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"I don' need one anyway!" she argued. "Why don' you eat your cereal."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Cause I spilled it," he pouted.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"It's still good," she said, maybe feeling badly. She scooped up a handful off the floor and held it out to him. "See?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy eyed it. "I'm not supposed to eat anything that was on the ground."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"I could eat some first and see if it's poison," Aly offereed.
