AN:

I knew when I said I'd update tomorrow that I would regret it… I've been dealing with major, real-world problems that have kept me, regrettably, away from the computer (and consequently my stories.)

ANYWAY, onto the long-delayed new chapter.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing. I know, it's sad…

Ice King's POV

I felt a tinny pecking at my toes. "Ouch, Gunter!" I jumped back, zapping him my ice beams. I lifted the hem of my tunic to check out the damage. "Oh, my foot nubs! Bad Gunter! Shoo, shoo." I shoved him out of the room and went back to gazing longingly out my window at the distant Candy Kingdom.

I used to stare out the window while thinking of my beloved baby Bubblegum, she was no longer worth my time. No princess would ever again be worthy to dream of capturing the glimmering gem of my heart muscle. Not when my perfect queen was just over the hills. Fionna… I hadn't even been down to my secret Fionna and Cake Chamber since she I had found her. Not even their statues were worthy of my presence.

I knew that Finn would want her for himself. He'd always had a thing for mad-stomping my game. Why did he always have to jump in and 'save the day' just when the princesses were warming up to me? Not chill at all. But it didn't matter anymore! Because Fionna would always love me… I mean, she owed the existence of her whole world to me or something, and that obviously obligated her to a lifetime of being my honey.

I decided I was done being bored, so I grabbed my picnic basket of Mac & Cheezles, just like we always ate together in my fan fictions, and headed out the window to win the heart of my lady.

AN:

I'm so sorry it's so short! I just really wanted to get this Ice King bit out of the way. His sin't a mind I enjoy dwelling in… *shudder*
