Ch 18: Little notes
"It's so boring here…" Marco whispered to himself. Leaning in his chair, he looked around the room. High standing officials from all around the Mewnian kingdom were there, talking about complicated stuff Marco could care less about. Rows of desks with Star at the end, sitting on her throne. This gave him an idea.
"You have a pen?" Marco said to Ginger, who was next to him. Ginger gave him a pen without looking at him. On the desk in front of him, there was a stack of documents detailing what the subject of the meeting was. Marco took one of the pages and wrote some words on it: Star, I was thinking that we could go out after this? -Marco
After pretending to receive the note from the person to his left, he gave the folded note to Ginger and said, "Please pass this to Star." Ginger took the note and passed it to the person next to her. Eventually the note reached Star. When she read it, she looked at Marco with a subtle smile. She replied by sending the note back with more text: I'd love that! :) how about we go to this bouncy castle dimension? ~Star. Accompanied with a drawing of a flower.
Marco added: I'd love that! Also, just to pass time, let's add onto the flower. I'll start. With adding a bee near the flower.
Star added a tree.
Marco added a beehive oozing with honey, and added: because you're so sweet.
Star added a bunny and wrote: because you're so cute when you aren't sad
This made Marco's stay at the meeting a little shorter, and by the end they had drawn a small meadow with comments all over. When the meeting was dismissed, Marco caught up to Star.
"Hey, Star! So we're going to that bouncy castle place?"
"Well, not yet. I still have to do some work, but we'll go soon!" Star said.
"Work? Is it related to the stuff in the meeting? Because I didn't pay attention."
"I barely listened, but from what I heard we declared war and-"
"What?" Marco perked up.
"We declared war?"
Marco paused for a moment, and said ,"You do realize that's bad? It's like, really bad."
"It was one of those moments when you snapped back to reality after zoning out, and everyone was looking at you for your answer!" Star argued "Besides, how bad can a war be?"
