" *sigh* He's doing it again…"

Rosalina said this in dismay, as MSB was typing up another chapter on one of his other fanfictions. You'd think he'd give more love to his first one, right? Sadly, this was not the case. It wasn't just this, either. Whenever he wasn't focused on his other fanfiction, he was either playing his Nintendo Switch (though who could blame him), or he was swamped in the vast ocean of reality's many responsibilities.

Rosalina continued to sigh. He needed a break.

Rosalina slowly approached MSB. Without making a peep, she tiptoed in front of him, slowly put her hand on top of his laptop, and slammed it closed without warning. MSB blinked. He looked up to face Rosalina. She had a serious expression on her face. "You can't keep doing this forever," she warned, "Take a day off, maybe do something other than be distracted." She slowly walked away, turning to face MSB one last time.

"Who knows… it might even be good for you."

MSB just stared blankly into space for the next five seconds. He wanted to yell at Roslaina to leave him alone and to continue writing his other fanfiction. He would have… if she wasn't right. He always seemed to be preoccupied, never giving the Smashers the attention they deserved. With the Switch hype train continuing to escalate, it was only a matter of time before he would have to finish this fanfiction, too. He put his laptop to the side.

A bit of relaxation never killed anyone.

He was at the Smash Mansion's top balcony, gazing at the beautiful sunrise. Turns out he had been up all night playing video games and writing fanfiction. It felt… nice, to let the fresh air clash against his skin. It was the first time he felt this relaxed in years. He even managed to doze off into a light sleep for several minutes. Wario probably would have woken him up with a fart to the face, but a certain red-clad plumber "persuaded" him not to do so.

When MSB finally woke up, it was time for breakfast.

He walked down to the dining room, where breakfast tacos were being served. He quickly grabbed three of his favorite tacos: bean and cheese. His mouth began to water, as he took a seat at the table. As he was biting down into his first taco, he took notice of two particular Smashers. Link was busy eating some chicken and cheese tacos from a huge plate in the center of the table. Right across from him was Cloud, doing the exact same thing.

Oh crud, thought MSB, this won't be good.

Eventually, only one taco remained at the table. Cloud and Link both reached for it at the exact same time. They eyed the plate. Then they eyed each other. Tension filled the dining room. "Don't even think about," Samus warned Cloud. "There's more tacos at the end of the table…" Zelda told Link. At first, the two refused to break eye contact. Then they sighed, promptly getting out of their seats. Fighting over a measly taco wasn't worth anything. MSB let out a sigh from relief.

...he jinxed it.

Cloud and Link both jumped for the taco, as they came down on the plate with a horrendous CRASH! The taco slipped out of the dining room, but not before smacking Link and Cloud's faces. That did it. The swordsmen darted to opposite sides of the room. Link pulled out the Master Sword, while Cloud donned the Buster Sword. MSB decided to slowly tip toe out of the room, leaving the two swordsmen to their devices. He could've sworn he heard FIGHT!

As the sound of metal clashing against itself was heard from the dining room, MSB headed to the backyard.

Isabel was following the main Villager around the garden, making sure he was planting the seeds in the proper place. Peach and Toad were in another sector of the garden, plucking out the fresh crops. Peach had experience with that sort of thing. Olimar, Alph, and their Pikmin were simply in their lounge chairs, taking a well deserved break. Alph was napping, while Olimar was drinking lemonade with shades over his eyes.

MSB looked over the scene with content; work hard, relax harder.

He continued walking throughout the backyard, where he noticed Duck Hunt was burying something. He looked over Duck Hunt's shoulder, surprised to see he was burying a can of beans. Since this is Duck Hunt we're talking about, it would be wise to assume these were one of Duck Hunt's explosive beans. When he finished burying the beans, he ran into a nearby bush, giving his trademark laugh. The duck just sighed.

MSB, figuring this would not go well, hid in the bushes with Duck Hunt.

Wario suddenly came into the picture. The fatso looked like he just finished a 7 course meal. He seemed to be searching for something in the nearby flower pots. After confirming there was no one in sight, he yanked one of the little trees out of their pot, and took out a stack of 100 dollar bills. "Oh, sweet sweet Benjamins!" he whispered with glee. He began walking back towards the mansion… right in the direction of Duck Hunt's beans.

BOOOOOM!

Mario had been playing Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle at the time of the explosion. He accidently dropped his Switch out of startlement, but since it was on the living room couch, there wasn't any damage. Now slightly annoyed, Mario picked up his cap and walked towards the backyard, surprised to see Wario's face covered in smoke. Conveniently, a stack of a hundred dollar bills fell by his side, completely unaffected by the explosion. Mario grinned a bit. "That-a somehow makes you look-a better," he muttered, quietly enough for Wario not to hear.

Then came the snickering behind the bushes.

Mario pushed his head past said bushes, only to find Duck Hunt and MSB laughing up a storm, with the duck looking away, not wanting to be affiliated with Duck Hunt's prank. Mario glared the two Smashers down, which they noticed after sometime. As soon as MSB realized he had been seen, a red "!" popped above his forehead, before yelling, "ITWASDUCKHUNT!" and running off. Duck Hunt just stood there in shock, realizing he had been betrayed.

With the mysterious explosion cleared up, Mario simply returned to his game.

When MSB had stopped running, he noticed Yoshi and Kirby having a friendly match on the Smashville stage. So far, it appeared Kirby was gaining the upper hand. Whenever Yoshi tried pulling an Egg Throw, the pink puffball would simply air dodge and punish him with an uncharged Hammer Throw. Several onlookers spectated the battle, including Villager, Lucina, and Shulk. "And in 3… 2… 1…" whispered Shulk. Kirby KO'd Yoshi off the stage.

Villager reluctantly paid Lucina fifteen bucks.

Having enjoyed the battle, MSB decided to head over to the gym to mercilessly beat Sandbag. Upon entering, he noticed female Corrin over excessively bowing in apology to Little Mac, with her male counterpart looking at the scene with a pitying expression. Probably for the events that transpired a few days ago. Ryu was pummeling sandbag all the while, constantly wrecking each one faster than the last. MSB was about to grab his own sandbag, when Cloud crashed into the gym through the wall.

While Link was covered in bruises and cuts, he ate that taco in victory.

MSB was leaving the kitchen and heading towards his room, having finished his chicken and vegetable soup, compliments of Peach, he noticed someone was waiting at his door. "What are you doing here, Rosalina?" MSB asked. The princess of the cosmos looked at him with a soft smile. "I wanted to see if you enjoyed your day off," she responded, "...did you?" MSB didn't hesitate to respond, "Yeah… yeah I did." Rosalina's smile grew brighter. MSB began raising up his own conveniently placed Nintendo Switch. "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?" he asked Rosalina.

They were up 'til midnight playing that game.

Author's Note: Happy Thanksgiving, everybody! Now if you'll excuse me, I have lengthy holiday special to write. :-)
