Plush Parade

The human keeps forgetting to keep a journal, so we're taking it into out own paws.

“Good morning!”

“Hi, are you new here? My name's Spanky. You're a bear, right?”

“I'm a lifeguard. My name is Vincent Lancelot Mac–”

“Not very punchy, is it? How about if we call you Brian, for short.”

“But I'm not–”

“Hi guys! Are you behaving today, Spanky?”

“I'm trying.”

“Good, good. And who's this? A newcomer?”

“I'm Vi–”

“This is my friend, Ginger Brian.”

“Well, I'm Romeo. Pleased to meet you. Is it okay if I call you Ginger, or…?”

“No, no.”

“Brian it is, then. Do you need any help meeting the others? I can make the introductions if you want.”

“But…”

“Nothing like a hearty breakfast to start the day!”

“You think that's a hearty breakfast?”

“No? I said it's nothing like a…”

“Ohh, okay.”

“Well, at least they got coffee.”

[doubleplushgood]

“Human, what are you doing?”

“That's not a healthy breakfast. Please, don't do this!”

“But… but… your health, human?”

“Somebody help. MrS tabby, can you talk to the human? They didn't have a proper breakfast!”

“What's wrong? Missing breakfast just once might be a bit silly, but it's not a disaster.”

“Oh, they had breakfast. Black pudding, eggs, mushrooms and all that.”

“So what's wrong with that?”

“They had cranberry juice, but NO COFFEE! I think they might have gone insane.”

“Oh, is that all?”

“But…”

“I heard the room service beagles talking. The coffee machine in the restaurant broke down. That's why we're making coffee here. See?”

“Ohhh, phew. Thanks! I was really worried there.”

[doubleplushgood]

“Oh, hi! We arrived. Thanks, Softtigger.”

“It was easy. Who's that, though?”

“Oh, you didn't meet the new owl yet? They're hoping someone can tell them if they're a boy or a girl, so they can choose a name.”

“It's betweeen Vincent and Wingates. I'm not suure which suuits me best.”

[doubleplushgood]

“I'm supposed to be making sure the bag doesn't get lost, but nobody told me where we're going!”

(this was actually our first post today, but we're reposting because it seems to have vanished)

[doubleplushgood]

“Next train from platform 4. Ride until the train reverses.”

…

“Who wrote this itinerary? I wouldn't have volunteered to look after the bag if I'd known you were being silly.”

[doubleplushgood]

“See, it wasn't that hard, was it?”

“I guess not. Thanks, Moe.”

[doubleplushgood]

“Next train from platform 4. Ride until the train reverses.”

…

“Who wrote this itinerary? I wouldn't have volunteered to look after the bag if I'd known you were being silly.”

[doubleplushgood]

“Hi, Tree.”

“I am groot!”

“Yeah, a very long time. I've seen the human's cruel side now.”

“I am groot? I am groot.”

“I've been locked in the suitcase since November! I mean, sure, we were messing about when they were trying to pack, but I think more than a month is over the top.”

“I am groooot.”

“Yeah, hide and seek, remember? I had a really good place too, under the spare meds box. But then–”

“I am groot?”

“Of course not! I was hiding!”

“I am groot. I am groot. I am groot? I am groot.”

“Well… maybe you got a point there. But still, two and a half months? You can bet Billy and Clyde were surprised when they found me.”

“I am groot.”

“You can say that again.”

dads arent real shut the hell up

[doubleplushgood]

“Does that mean our human isn't real? The human got lots of Daddy vibes even if she's only daddy to a whole bunch of us fuzzy critters.”

[doubleplushgood]

“What are you doing, Mimsy?”

“Keeping the bed warm.”

“The human will be back soon! They just went to the bathroom”

“Yeah. So they'll want a warm bed, right?”

[doubleplushgood]

“Hey, uhh, Nani?”

“What? AAAH!”

"Aaaaah! Did I do magic in my sleep or something? I just woke up and it's all…”

“That's a powerful spell.”

“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…”

“It's okay, just joking. The human's mom came in during your nap. Put new sheets on the bed and everything.”

“Ohh, phew. It'll be weird sleeping with all this around us, though.”

“I'm more surprised you didn't wake up while she was here!”

[doubleplushgood]

“That was a quick dinner. Time for some more writing now?” – Fleuron, being helpful

stuffed animal net sags too much. :(

Gonna hit my head on it...

But at least I got a few plushies visible and mostly out of the way :/

[doubleplushgood]

“This net sags lots too. Even I hit my head on it.”

“Yeah, but it means we don't fall out of bed. And the bears at the top are at shoulder height when the human sits up in bed to watch TV, so we can be all round them and almost nobody gets sat on.”

“Close enough to snuggle, I guess? I've not tried being in the net yet.”

“It's still kind of new. I'm looking forward to the next reorganisation, maybe I can go on top for a bit.”

“I think it's kinda weird we went on vacation with the human and came back to find all our friends in a net.”

“Yeah, what happened?”

“It was Mom's idea. She said the human doesn't keep us tidy enough. Maybe she was right. It's nice being up high to watch Stargate, though.”

“Oh, we rewatching? Where are we up to?”

“Rising part 2. Come on, I hear footsteps. If we can get on top of the net quickly we'll get the best view…”

“I don't think there's space for me up there.”

*gasp*puff* “Somebody… help me up?”

[doubleplushgood]

“I'm pretty sure I don't smell like beer anymore.”

“And… a ride in the spinny machine was fun.”

“And it's nice and relaxing here in the warm.”

“I could go on adventures with the human again. But it's nice here. Maybe when I get bored.”
