Nothing much too say except that Mickey is too innocent for his own good. XD Along with ALL Disney characters. (Except for Oswald and others like him.)
Too Innocent for Your Own Good
Mickey ran around the theme park, tugging his elder sibling behind him as they went from one ride to another. Mischievously going through the crowds of humans unseen, cutting in lines and jumping around. His clothes were grayish as he went into his black and white self, getting in the seats as quick as he can, brother in tow.
Have you ever wondered why, sometimes, there would a free seat or two left but no one takes it? The co-workers seemed to turn a blind eye and simply start the ride, despite the long line of people waiting and one or two of them being able to that those seats. Well, that's because a Disney characters was occupying that seat, enjoying the ride with the humans. And most co-workers, often the one who takes charge in a certain ride, are able to see these characters in secret and allow them to do such things. Also, they can interact and speak to these characters, but only when there's a concern or emergency for it. After the park closes, the co-workers that are able to see them, bade goodnight and go home until next time they work back in the park.
"Mickey! Watch it! You nearly tripped that little girl and woman!" Oswald said, reprimanding his younger sibling who frowned. Some color came back to the mouse but only a little.
"Gee. I'm sorry. Next time, I'll watch where I'm going." Mickey apologized as his colors came back, a dull brightness to them.
Oswald sighed, settling into his seat beside his brother. He offered a small smile and ruffled his brother's head. Mickey swatted his hand away playfully, laughing.
They were in California Adventures, Mickey insisting after they rode on the Star Wars ride to come here in order to ride on the Scream roller coaster. Oswald was a bit reluctant, not knowing how he may react to this particular attraction. But Mickey grew impatient and grabbed a hold of his brother's hand, dragging him over to the ride.
So, now here they were, getting ready for the ride to start while the humans climbed in. Mickey was giddy, chattering away with his sibling. He was excited in spending a day with his older brother. It made him feel wonderfully happy to have him there, beside him. Yet, there was still guilt in him that wouldn't go away, no matter how many times he tried. The guilt of not even knowing he had a brother and for not being able to spend time with him like now. It gnawed at him, unforgivingly and relentless.
The ride started to move slowly, turning. They heard 'Whoops!' and 'Yeahs' from everyone on the roller coaster. Oswald laughed and Mickey, snapping out of his angst and giggled, feeling the coaster stop and the count-down started. Mischievously looking over at Oswald who was confused for a second and then, when the last number was uttered, the coaster sped like a bullet.
The rabbit was shocked by the sudden speed and screamed "Oh Shiiiiiiit!" all the way up to the top.

"Oswald…" Mickey breathed out, stunned.
"Yeah?" the rabbit replied, confused.
"You…cursed….!"
Blinking, Oswald titled his head and shrugged. Frowning at Mickey who was gaping at him like a fish.
"And?" he asked, not getting what the big deal was.
"And? AND! Oswald, you friggin cursed! We're not supposed to curse!" Mickey practically yelled, getting worked up as his 'Mr. Good Guy'-self came out. It annoyed Oswald whenever Mickey showed this side and, quite frankly, wanted to just smack his younger brother silly for ever being like that. Seriously, 'Mr. Good Guy' thing is stupid. He doesn't know why the hell the humans wanted Mickey to be like that.
"You know, Mickey, you're way too innocent for your own good." Oswald said, going over and placed a hand on Mickey's head, his lip cracking up a bit. He ruffled the mouse's head and then brought him into a headlock, giving him a noogie.
"Hey! Stop that!" Mickey said, dropping his 'Mr. Good Guy' act and laughed out loud.
Smirking, Oswald stopping giving Mickey a noogie but still had him in a headlock, dragging him over to a ride he saw earlier.
"Come on. let's go to the Tower of Terror. It looks interesting." Oswald said, not letting go of his struggling brother who soon gave up, allowing the rabbit to drag him away.
There still much about his brother Mickey did not know. And, thinking about while taking a seat in the Tower of Terror elevator, brother beside him, he would most definitely get more than one surprising and rather mortifying thing about his brother than he would like to care. But, if it means getting closer to him, then Mickey would do whatever it takes to know him more. Even if it means coming out of the innocent world he knew and learning about a darker and not-so-innocent world. However, within darkness, there is light and within every light, there is darkness.
Yin and Yang; Good and Evil.
