Among Warm Sunsets
Lit-War
"Molly, why don't you put down that book and pay attention to me."
The Harvest God was being childish by pestering Molly, who was minding her own business and reading.
She sighed and put the book down beside her. "M'lord, why should I stop what I'm doing because you demand it," she said, rather crossly. "And besides, I'm in my own house—therefore I think I can pretty much do whatever I want to do."
The Harvest God crossed his arms over his chest and grumbled something incoherent under his breath.
Molly giggled, "Boy, you sure look cute when you pout," she said while covering her mouth with her hand.
A small blush tainted his cheeks and painted the tips of his pointed ears.
"Uh… w-what are you r-reading?" he stuttered; that only deepened the blush that was slowly spreading across his face.
"Well," Molly picked up the book from where she had left it and (pretty much) shoved it in the Harvest God's face. "I'm reading the original copy of 'Beauty and the Beast' a classic."
His face changed from 'mildly interested' to 'OMG this is freaking boring someone put me out of my misery'.
Molly puffed up her cheeks in annoyance. "Ugh, you're so immature; you can't even appreciate a good book when you see it!"
"Maybe," he started, drawing out every word, "it's because your book does not sound interesting at all?"
"Okay, then. Why don't you try reading it, then we'll see whether or not my book is interesting?" she said, handing him the book.
And the challenge began… oh boy…
. . . . . .
A week later, the Harvest God was transfixed by the book before him; he couldn't stop reading.
Molly was thoroughly pissed; he had completely ignored her the whole time.
Molly and Finn were, again, at the Harvest God's mountaintop, trying very hard to get his attention—spoiler alert: epic fail.
"OMG, will you quit reading and pay attention to us?" she said, exasperated.
Finn tried tugging on his hair to get his attention, but was swatted away like a fly.
The Harvest God continued reading, which further irked Molly.
She sighed and plopped down next to his throne, with Finn in tow. "Ugh, he's such a lit-nerd," she pouted; Finn looked at her briefly and copied her movements.
The Harvest God, who heard what she had said, simply zapped both of them. They experienced severe pain for the next two days.
[A/N]: I'd like to, again, thank everyone who reads and reviews. It means a lot, so… thanks. I'm rather happy, because all the shows on Nickelodeon from the 90's are back on TeenNick! Eep, I watched all those shows, so I'm so happy! If only they'd do that for Toon Disney and Cartoon Network… anyways, lit-nerd is the term my English Lit. teacher called my friend and I, because we love to read. Haters gonna hate… anyways, next chapter will be… whenever. Oh yeah, I change my name a lot so… uh… I just wanted you all to know that.
