He was nearly asleep when he heard a silent "hey" from above.
- Hey. Rizel. Rizel. You asleep yet?
- Hnnnnnn... - the roitelet looked at the perunium.
- Are you ticklish? - the mustelid moved her head like a curious dog.
Kinglet shivered.
- ...I d-d-don't think I am.
- Okay. - the musteline head disappeared, as she was back to looking at Caroo's NSFW gallery.
Rizel sighed. He just hoped she won't surprise him that night with trying to test if he is. Because he actually probably is.
She actually surprised him another way that night...by rolling over and falling from the second tier in the middle of the night.
- I don't think she must be spending so much time with that "kinglet". She changes very fast, and I don't think it's alright. - the arcanian crossed his arms and glared at the being angrily.
Creature chuckled loudly and sat back:
- You see... I haven't created her to be a finished masterpiece. I've created her to evolve, just like her counterpart from another world.
- Mmmm-hmmm... - Griffin still didn't believe, judging by his look.
- I'm serious. Even I, the creature that was created to be "the second best after the POFT herself", even I am evolving all the time.
- Oh yeah.
- Either way, I am happy she grows. She started to get to be more confident, more serious, and just look at that stance. - Creature really seemed proud of its little creation.
- Do you think they may be...you know... like in love or anything? - Griffin still tried to insist, not going to accept his failure.
Creature's laugh made the roitelet step back from the door he was standing pressed to, trying to overhear what they were talking about. He knew it was bad, but it was about HIM, so he had to hear. Stepping back he didn't look where he was putting his foot down, so he stepped on a new chew toy, which immideately rolled away, making the small being trip and almost fall.
Luckly, he managed to quickly grab Maria's tail and keep his balance. Maria wasn't pleased by such a rude waking up, but he nodded to the door.
- Nah. They both are not interested in anything like that. Plus the age and species difference. They are fine. Unlike you, old faggot. You think I don't know what were you doing last night?
Griffin blushed as blue as the sky behind him.
- She was 21 already.
- And you are over ten thousands years old. Talk about age difference.
The arcanian puffed up and walked away, pouting. Creature giggled:
- Dudes, I know you heard everything. How did you like that comeback?
At a con again.
They all thought that nothing can surprise them anymore, after Creature's drift in the shopping cart at night and the day...the evening it stole 150 rolls of pink toilet paper and played with them all night, covering the parking lot in a moving and rustling carpet of pink soft napkins.
But that...
It was the day Tomie agreed to sing for them all again.
- Moins d'une minute
Sur un ring comme au lit...
Something big trotted through the doorway behind her. It passed by, then quickly stopped and walked backwards.
Chub. With a ceramic soup pot on its head.
Their eyes widened, Tomie, however, didn't notice anything, and kept singing:
- Un uppercut
Et tu vas au tapis...
The being silently walked inside and bumped into one of the speakers.
Both the roitelet and the boglodite slowly shook their heads. No. No. Please not that.
Tomie didn't notice anything, she was singing with her eyes closed, while behind her two long thin arms were touching the biggest speaker, measuring it.
- Un mauvais coup
Sur un ring comme au lit
Un mauvais coup...
The being swayed back as hard as it could...
- QUI DEGAGE DE MA VIE!
The soup pot hit the speaker, breaking in half.
- DEGAGE DE MA VIE!
The Creature quickly grabbed the two halves and silently disappeared in the doorway.
Tomie still didn't notice anything.
- QUI DEGAGE DE MA VIE!
Both, the alien and the roitelet were trying hard not to facepalm. Their counterparts from the other worlds nodded to them symathetically, in the "I know that feel, bro" type of manner. Tomie would keep singing, but Harry Zenkova ruined it completely by laughing so loudly that everyone else started to try to shut him up, but there Jay joined in laughing.
Tomie frowned:
- What's so fucking funny, huh?!
...Griffins looked at her angry face and burst out laughing as well.
Angry Tomie jumped off the stage and run away, and right in the same doorway she bumped into the Creature. Only a circular mark on the fur was telling that the being was stuck in a soup pot a few minutes ago.
- Have I missed anything important from the show? - it asked cautiously, carefully stroking shaking angry Tomie.
- You were the main star today. - someone waved to it, nearly crying from laughter.
