The Snack Den

[?]

*nods* how about cupcakes?  and sounds tasty 

[Firox]

*Vay giggles* "silly ?, thats for dessert, main meal, we can make her favorite kind of pizza"
*giving ? a soft patting on back of ears*


*heads outside to tell Firox, Jyo, and Joseph to bring back lots of tacos and muffins*

[?]

*giggles and nods* pizza is good then *looks around the den*

[Firox]

*Vay comes back in, starts making juice*
"? would you like mango juice, strawberry juice, or old fashioned lemonade when the tacos arrive?"
*she has pretty much all the various fruits ready, and lemons too*
"if you like to go with them, they are still outside, or you can relax and listen to the story for a little while"


*Firox, Jyo, and Joseph for now quit the playful battles, and get ready to go for the tacos and muffins - still outside*



*Grace, Iordan, Linette, and Zoran are still reading a scary story to the eight Vees*
*Flower and I are also hearing the story*

[?]

lemonade please *looks to see who is all around to challenge while messing around den*

[Firox]

*in a way none yet ready - most battlers are out grabbing food*
*another reading scary story*
*myself, have 5 smaller ones on me*


*Vay passes ? big glass of lemonade to drink for now*




*den time, about 25 minutes later*
*Firox, Jyo, and Joseph arrive, with the food and dessert*


*Jyo passes ? a box filled with four big crunchy tacos, sour cream on the side*
*all getting ready to eat and drink juice*
*except for Joseph and myself, we go for Dr. Pepper*


*the ones reading, finally take a break so they can eat too, and drink juice*



(been up almost 4 hours, yep had almost 9 hours of sleep, up for a while just making some 'baked potatoes' for breakfast)   

[?]

*drinks for now and happily eats*

[Firox]

(if curious, didn't stayed up all night, did get plenty of sleep)  




*Vay tells everyone* "next day will be Sylvee's birthday, going to make her pizza for the main meal, try not to ruin the surprise for her"
*we all nod*


*Grace, Zoran, Iordan, and Linette - Firox got them steak burritos, rest of us mix of tacos and burritos, except for ? got crunchy tacos*


*after a while of eating, done with my tacos, before dessert, I go where ? is and start licking up all the sour cream*   

[?]

*nods*

*then shakes head a bit n pushes, looks around to see who is all home to plan out who all to try to take down* 

[Firox]

*pretty much everyone is around, all the usual, most are nearly done with tacos, haven't started on dessert*

*last time Grace gets to miss out again, still has bandage wrapped around paw, is kind of 'teaching' Iordan on what ? does for challenging*

*I giggle*    *pushing ?'s left hind paw*
"thanks for the sour cream"   

[?]

grrr, going fown first    *pounces on and nips nose* 

[Firox]

*? can hear Grace telling Iordan* "we don't try to physically 'attack' strongly to defeat or hurt, mainly to try to get ? to kind of give up on its own, or use cold attacks and make faint, it will try to do the same, its place filled with food, more than likely food will get thrown around a lot, its all for good fun"





*also Linette and Zoran get to teach the six about balance, how the body moves with play, as teaching skills they will use in the future*
*also show when ? moves left for example how ears and tail move right to remain balanced able to turn all of sudden, other wise, would fall flat on face - similar with me - also teach them on how not to feel to over confident, simple mistake can mean win or lose, kind of how Joseph lost the chess game*




*back to where we are*
"what did I do, all you did was to share the sour cream with me"
*I try to pin ? down - I'm sure it saw the movement*

[?]

*tries to nip the paw while getting pushed* 

[Firox]

*Grace tells Iordan* "we have the icy cold breaths, Joseph has the shocking tongue, Firox has the hot breath, Jyo has the rough feline tongue... ? doesn't have any of that, so it uses food and nips to kind of take us down, and is also super smart and intelligent too..."


*I flick ears at the sound of Linette and Zoran explaining to the six, do get kind of silly idea to demonstrate what they mean, also makes it look funny and will give ? a big advantage... as ? gets busy with top of muzzle and nose, I ties a small rope around mah tail and tied it around my left paw, kind of 'losing balance' - to demonstrate*
*I try to leap left, of course out of instinct and balance, tied tail tries to move right, wrapped around left paw.... well, you can say falls in front of ?, face first*
*it did looks so silly* 
"now time to you down.... well once I get the rope off"

[?]

*tries to jump on nose to keep down*
