Snippet #2053030

Humming under his breath, Ri held a small cat stuffed animal in his lap, his legs criss-cross applesauce. He was happy Oliver had called the meeting as he was super excited for everything to start. Scary stories were the best thing ever! Giggling he looked around and saw the rest of the group, with various looks of disinterest or something boring on their faces. Totally clashed with his happy go lucky awesome manliness, if you asked him. Like…god. Was it really that hard to…he didn’t know. Be happy and show non-boring emotions? Hmph. Well they’re just poopheads then! See his bestest friend ever walk into the room, Ri waved happily to him, though it was just a small one and he went back to petting the stuffed cat’s head contently. “I hereby start the official meeting! I’ve asked you all here today because…” Ri looked up with a raised brow and smiled knowingly. Bad Olive-chan. He shouldn’t be trying to get away from this! Scary stories weren’t real. Only the unknown were real to him. And they tormented him every chance they got. Blinking his gray-blue eyes, Ri fought a gasp when he saw the shadow move. Or…he thought it moved. He didn’t know. Pouting, he hugged Koko-chan to his chest and listened back on Olive. “Because we need to have these things on a regular basis so we all don’t go fucking insane and blow our brains out. I mean sometimes I lose sight of some of you for days and I have no idea where you go, but then I start to lose count, and it’s really not great because anything can happy and none of us would know. You could be lying in a puddle of your own…Uh. Right.” Ri just shook his head and smiled happily. Olive was so weird sometimes.

He began humming again and when the elder cleared his throat and looked around the room. When he caught his eye, Ri smiled brightly and waved. Olive was the best leader ever. Ri mentally nodded. He was strong, and while he was a little weird and freaked out over things that didn’t happen, like scary movies, he let him sleep in bed with him most times. Mainly when the Unknown scared him a bit too much and he couldn’t sleep because of it. Uncrossing his legs, he let out a huge yawn. Speaking of sleep, he was tired. But of course, he wasn’t too tired to miss a scary story session. He had been bugging the leader for days and finally he gave in. He was so excited about this and everything! It was like…like…a kid in a candy store. No…better. It was like him in a room full of stuffed animals, strawberries and bananas while he watched scary movies all day! The best thing ever! Olive managed to get his attention again and he pouted, a knowing and slightly annoyed look in his eyes. He wanted to tell stories! Yes yes yes! But he didn’t want to be first. No, no. He wanted to laugh and giggle at everyone’s stories before he told his!

“So from now on, we’ll have these meetings on a nightly basis. We’ll gather here before going to bed. Understood? Great. We’ll use these meetings to discuss any issues anyone has or clear up an argument or just, I dunno, talk or whatever. So I have an idea,” Ri huffed and rolled his eyes. No, he didn’t have an idea. Ri had the idea. Olive was stealing Ri’s idea! Bad Olive. He would share and extra scary story just for that. Meanie Olive-chan. “of what we can do tonight, but don’t get used to me coming up with everything all the time. I suppose we use tonight to do that thing people used to do around campfires and junk.” Oooo, a fire sounded nice! With gooey fluffy things called marshmallows and choclate and if they melted a pot of chocolate he could have chocolate covered strawberries and bananas! Oh god yes it sounded perfect! “You know. Telling crappy ghost stories.”

The young boy let out a loud cheer, “Yay! Scary story time everyone!” he threw Koko into the air and missed catching her, wincing as she landed a few feet away, “Ri-chan is super exicted about this, you know!” he tried to grab her with his toes but ended up having to roll over and crawl to get to her, ending up closer to Oliver, “Oh and Olive-chan. Can we make a fire? A fire sounds cool. Because then we can have sweets and I will melt chocolate and have strawberries covered in bittersweet awesome chocolate so can we? He smiled and looked up at the leader, before pouting and glancing at everyone else, “It sounds like a good idea right?” he sighed but quickly changed topics, “Okay! Who wants to start telling stories first!?”
