[ Toodles, 6:04 PM, Toon Rooms Floor 2 ] I was at a war with my mind, according to Rodger. I have no idea what that's supposed to even MEAN! He's SO confusing. I crossed my arms and sighed loudly. Rodger had locked his door and made me leave because I was 'disrupting his theorizing' or something. Once again, CONFUSING! I don't even know what a "theorizing" is! I didn't have any friends to play with right now. It's not Halloween time, and everybody else is partying it up with the Easter Toons. I don't have anything against those guys, but I don't really have a friendship with them. And I was so bored. Really, can it just be October already!? Just then, I remembered I had left Dotty in my bedroom. Why don't I play with her? I ran across the long hallway into my room. I saw Dotty almost immediately and picked her right up. "Well, Dotty!" I looked at her cheerfully. "It looks like you're my only friend right now!" I pretended to have her nod her doggy head up and down in agreement. I still felt lonely and sad, though. I told myself Rodger was just busy like he is sometimes, but I think he's still angry at me for taking his journal. I apologized! I apologized AND cried right in his face! Why is he still angry? That's not fair. Unfair, unfair, unfair!! "It's okay, Dotty." I said, my voice reflecting throughout the empty floor. "I'll go talk to another friend about it and see what she thinks." Gigi always has good advice for me! Well, she told me that it was good advice. Rodger said that telling me to steal things that I thought were cool was actually really bad advice, but whatever! Gigi is more awesome than that stinky old man. I heard some commotion from inside her room, so she was totally in there. I opened the door (THANKFULLY it wasn't locked) and saw Gigi sorting through that box I saw her carrying around a while ago. It had all sorts of stuff inside of it, including one of Astro's hats, Poppy's bows, and a ton of other things. "Oooh, heey Toodles! Wassup, girl?" She stuffed the box behind herself when she saw me. She had a suspicious-looking smile on her face. I sat down crisscross-applesauce in front of her. "Well, I don't know. Rodger is mad at me, I think..." "Wait. Why?" "I took his journal, I didn't read that much before he saw me... he got so mad, it made me scared. I started to cry, and I think that made him feel bad, but he's DEFINITELY still annoyed with me! What a grudge-holder!" "Yikes, Toodles. It seems you were a little too brave... Did you apologize, at least?" "Yeah, I did, and Gigi- There is no such thing as being TOO brave." "Yeah, you're right, mwehehe. Knock 'em dead with your bravery!" Gigi patted my shoulder. "Okay, well, anyways, I came to ask you for your good advice again." I said, staring down at Dotty. "Uh... good advice?" Gigi blinked. "Well, okay. I think you should just leave him be for a bit. He's probably still pondering over what you did and just wanted some time alone." "Are you sure?" "Toodles, I've never been sure-er." "But what if he's still mad after the time alone? What if he doesn't forgive me? What if he never lets me help him ever again?" "Erm... he won't be, I promise you!" I was going to reply when a loud siren went off. "The deliveries have arrived." Dyle's voice boomed over the intercom. "All Toons, report to the lobby to receive your rations." I forgot it was April the 1st. "C'mon, let's go." Gigi stood up and held out her hand for me. I took it, now having Gigi's sleeve in one hand and Dotty in the other.. We walked towards the elevator together. Behind me, I heard a door get unlocked and open. It was Rodger! I decided to not go to talk to him and give him his "alone time". When Gigi pressed the button to request an elevator, it took a while before one appeared with pretty much every other Toon inside, minus the Mains and some others. Gigi let go of me and ran up to Connie. They started chatting away with NO plan to invite me to their conversation. I groaned. Why did adults have to be so INCONSIDERATE? Well, as long as we get to the lobby quick, I won't have to feel unattended for a while. Luckily, the elevator opened to the lobby not too long later. We didn't have to make any more stops to pick up any more Toons, so that was good. The Mains must already be at the lobby. It's no shock, they're ALWAYS early. I ran as fast as I could so I could be first for rations, but I wasn't as fast as some of the other Toons. I ended up in, like, tenth place. So disappointing. The lobby was DEAD silent. I could for sure hear a pin drop in here! The first Toon, Flutter, used her legs to carry her rations as she flew off. She's usually first since she can leap ahead with those wings. Other Toons got their shares as the line got shorter and shorter. When it was my turn, Dyle looked down at me disgustedly with his reddish eyes. I hate Dyle SO MUCH! +
+ He's so stinkin' rude to me and all the other Toons. The only one he actually respects and treats as an equal is BASSIE, of course. She's THE Main Character. He plopped the paper bag into my hands. I ran towards a bench and looked inside, and saw 3 cans of fruit cocktail, 4 cans of peas and corn, and 2 cans of spam. Was this meant to last four whole weeks? I could eat this all in only TWO weeks if I wanted to. "Seriously, Dyle?" I turned around to see Brusha arguing with him. "This is way less than last month! Are you trying to make us starve, or something?? I-" "If you would prefer to have no food at all, then you may continue to utter such thoughtless words." Dyle hissed. His voice was low and, most importantly, TERRIFYING. Brusha didn't say a word. She took the bag and walked out of view. I closed up my bag and went back to the elevator. I wasn't hungry right now. I could wait a couple of days to have any of this stuff. When I reached the elevator- "Salutations, Toodles." Rodger had apparently been waiting for me beside the elevator. "Uhm, hi Rodger." I glimpsed around the room restlessly. "I sort of... heard you talking to Gigi... from the room next to mine." "Oh." "I just wanted to say that I am sorry for hurting your feelings. You weren't wrong, I still am a bit frustrated by what you did, but I forgave you a while ago. I only wanted the 'alone time' you both spoke of because I had a realization that I needed to flesh out." "Oh. Okay." "Well, let's head back now." "Sure." ——————————————————————— Author's note: EVIL DYLE EVIL DYLE EVIL DY Oh my gosh guys you don't understand how great evil Dyle is.
