Grephil

*hrrmmmmm okay, just be sure to have him home in the afternoon.

*And don’t bring him home covered in FLOUR like last time you two made cookies! Cleaning isn’t my strong suit and you know that!

[*Aswell whimpers. He had no idea what they wanted him to say…]

[*It was time for drastic measures then. He took a deep breath, and gave Eris the best puppy dog face he could, whimpering softly as little tears welled up in his eyes.]

*I…I dunno what the magic word is! Thas all the words I knooowwww…

[*The kid was good at this, giving a little sniffle as he watched Eris tease him with the chocolaty treat. But could he successfully melt her heart though?] 

*(At the sight of the poor little guy pouting, Eris simply could not hold on to her teasing grin. Aswell was the definition of cute and he so wanted those cookies. She couldn’t possibly keep them from him any longer, not with that face tugging at her chest.)

(Oh, it’s alright, don’t worry! No need to get upset, we’ll have to work on those magic words, yeah?)

*(Without a single bit of regret in caving, she handed him two cookies, one for each hand. She was no fool, you don’t just hand a box full of cookies to a child with no sweets filter. He’d have a stomach ache in no time.)

(Start with these, and only a few at a time later. I mean it.)

*(She gave a more serious tone now.)

(If I hear you ate all these cookies at once, I’ll have to put you on the “no more cookies” list.)

[*Aswell gasped in shock that she actually gave him a few of the cookies, putting one in his mouth before running up to hug the nice cat lady.]

*Fank fou faft lafy!

the-grephil-anomaly:

[*No cookies? That was just cruel after teasing him with the smell alone! He had to act fast, this was a once in a life time opportunity after all! What were some words he was told were magic?]

“Umm….uuuuuhhh….”

[*Oh! There was one he heard someone say at camp! They couldn’t get it to work, but maybe they got it’s purpose wrong? He took a deep breath, and yelled the phrase with all his might.]

*Fus….Ro….DAH!

[*He stood proudly after shouting it, confident that was the magic word that would earn him the delicious goods!]

*(Her hand rushed to cover her mouth and she tried not to giggle. She shook her head once again, unable to hide her grin as she observed Aswell’s determined stance. What a cute little bab!)

(Good try, impressive, but still not quite on the mark.)

*(She took one of the cookies out of the box and gazed at it, pretending to be so marvelously enchanted by her own goodies.)

(Just think of how pleasing it’ll be, aye? I put all my love into each cookie in this box. That’s what makes them so warm and fulfilling.)

*(She winked over at him again, waiting for his next guess.)

[*Aswell whimpers. He had no idea what they wanted him to say...]

[*It was time for drastic measures then. He took a deep breath, and gave Eris the best puppy dog face he could, whimpering softly as little tears welled up in his eyes.]

*I...I dunno what the magic word is! Thas all the words I knooowwww...

the-grephil-anomaly:

[*Aswell giggled at being patted on the head. He liked this person, they were much nicer than other guests they’ve had. And they had COOKIES! COOKIES MAN!! He wasn’t sure what this magic word was, but if it meant free cookies and making his Dad proud, he’d figure it out!]

“Is the magic word Cookie?”

[*It may…take him a couple tries though.]

*(Eris couldn’t help but smile at the little guy. His excitement was plain on his face and it was refreshing to be in the presence of such simple happiness. She shook her head at him.)

(Nooope, not quite. I’ll give you a couple more tries. Id hate to have to take all these back home. I couldn’t possibly eat them all by myself.)

*(Looking down at the cookies she frowned, in an attempt to dramatize her staged disappointment. She was kidding, of course. She made the cookies for him. Even if he couldn’t produce a please or thank you, she would still give them to him. He was smart though and she figured he could catch on.)

[*No cookies? That was just cruel after teasing him with the smell alone! He had to act fast, this was a once in a life time opportunity after all! What were some words he was told were magic?]

“Umm....uuuuuhhh....”

[*Oh! There was one he heard someone say at camp! They couldn’t get it to work, but maybe they got it’s purpose wrong? He took a deep breath, and yelled the phrase with all his might.]

*Fus....Ro....DAH!

the-grephil-anomaly:

[*Aswell could indeed smell the sweets. His sweet tooth tingled to get a bite of whatever was in the box, but he did his best to hold his ground, if only for theatrics.]

*This is the former home of Me and Grephil! I’m standing guard in case someone tries to steal our things!

[*He waves his stick around heroically, obviously pretending the thing was a sword. He continues looking fiercely at the newcomer for a few moments…and then breaks down, starry eyed and drooling as the smell of chocolate and sweets becomes too much to bear.]

*What’s in the boooooox? [*Seems he still doesn’t know his manners, nor the old saying of “Don’t take candy from strangers.” Nevertheless, he seems excited to learn what Eris has brought him!]

*(Eris giggles and shakes her head at how quickly the young one’s demeanor changes. She stands up straight again and walks closer to Aswell, patting him lightly on the head while holding the goodies box in her other hand.)

(Now, now, I know I came by unexpectedly, but a strong heroic little guard such as yourself shouldn’t be swayed so easily. You wouldn’t want your dad to think you were broken down by a bunch of cookies, would you?)

*(She gave a friendly smirk as she said so. Her tone was soft and a little teasing. She didn’t want to sound too harsh, she was only playing after all. Opening the box, she crouched down beside him and offered him one of the cookies. They were warm, still fairly fresh, and filled with chocolate chips. Before letting him take it, she asked a familiar question to most.)

(What’s the magic word?)

[*Aswell giggled at being patted on the head. He liked this person, they were much nicer than other guests they’ve had. And they had COOKIES! COOKIES MAN!! He wasn’t sure what this magic word was, but if it meant free cookies and making his Dad proud, he’d figure it out!]

“Is the magic word Cookie?”

(Aswell! You around here?)

*(The feline shouted, but not obnoxiously loud. She wasn’t even sure if shouting would help her situation, not knowing much about how to find anyone down here. She hoped she could find Aswell, however. She had a gift for him.)

[*In the dump, boxes upon boxes line the walls, all filled with some of the trash that filled the Dump. Broken stuff mostly, but also the goat and ghost’s belongings.]

[*The Ghost Dad wasn’t around, but Aswell was standing guard by a box labeled “Aswell’s Stuffs.” he hears the unfamiliar voice, and looks around curiously.]

*Hello? Who’s out there?

“Of course I did, I was there after all. I didn’t really do much, because Dad said ‘just because I’m, teaching these delinquents doesn’t mean I want you learning anything in this school. Who knows what those other teachers are doing’“He also told me not to tell anyone he said that! ...”
