{It was a calm casual day, and Grandma Rosiepuff and Spruce left the pod. John Dory was left in charge}

JD: Aah.. such a lovely day. Spruce left, Gram left. So peaceful.

{John Dory sips his tea}

CRASH!

C: WEEEEE! 

F: YAYY!!

B: AGAIN..!

{John Dory looked at the three and stared. They were all on Clay's skateboard. Branch looked like he almost flew off}

C: uh, I'm just having some bonding time with the my brothers, eeh..

JD: Mkay..

{Clay grabs his brothers and drags them upstairs and sets them onto the skateboard, again}

C: LETS DO THISSSS!! 

F: YEAHH!!!

B: ookay...

{Branch felt nervous, he just wanted to play with his older brothers and make them happy}

{Clay pushed the skate board forwards and off they went}

C: WOOOOOO!!

F: YAYYYY!

B: ...

{Branch held on for his life, but he lost his grip and went flying}

B: AAAHHHHHHHAHAHHAHHHH! *shrieks*

{John Dory looks up}

JD: No way.. bro actually catapulted him..

B: 😵‍💫

{Branch fell face first into the living room carpet}

B: oof.

{The skateboard hit the bottom of the stairs and Floyd looked around}

F: umm, where did Branch go?

C: Dunno.

{Floyd looked at John Dory and saw him staring at a blue, big headed toddler, face first into the living room carpet}

F: *gasp* Branch!!! 

{Floyd runs over and picks him up}

F: Are you okay? 

B: Yea..

{Branch makes a, about to throw up, face 🤢}

F: Uh oh.

{Floyd runs to the bathroom while carrying Branch}

C: Uhuhmmmm...

JD: I think you made the baby sick,

C: Correction, toddler.

JD: Uh, okay, maybe you guys shouldn't skateboard down the stairs?

C: That's what I thought about before, but it's pretty fun.

JD: Branch probably broke his nose.

C: Okay. 

JD: Do you even feel bad at all?

C: Wait, I'm supposed to feel something? Hold on.

{Clay grabs a book called, "My Feelings"}

JD: *rolls eyes*

C: Oh, it says, "Feel empathy for someone when they are hurt."

JD: As we can see-

C: But.. I have my own, thoughts, choices, decisions, and rules. MY LIFE, MY RULES!!! YAYY!!!

JD: What the-

{Clay jumps on the table and does his classic "Wiggle Worm" dance}

C: OH YEAH!

JD: Get down.

C: mmm..

JD: I mean it! Seriously!

C: Take me seriously first.

JD: What do you mean? 

C: Never mind.

{Clay jumps off the table and grabs his skateboard}

C: I'm done. I'm going to go eat ice cream.

JD: Okay...

F: Branch you okay?

B: yeeup..

F: Do you want a snack?

B: Yeah.!

F: Okay! How does.. hmm.. chocolate chip cookies sound?

B: I don't know.. what do they sound like..?

F: um, do you want to help me make chocolate chip cookies?

B: ooh yeah!

{The two went into the kitchen and started to make some cookies}

~~~

C: Just me and my ice cream. Only ice cream will understand my pain. 

{Clay scoops a huge chunk of ice cream and shoves it into his mouth}

C: mm..

{Clay closed the lid and went downstairs to put it back into the fridge}

C: What are you guys doing?

F: Baking?

{Clay looks at the two little trolls}

C: Are those hats necessary?

F: Yes! They make us proper chefs!

C: Uh, okay.

{Clay walked back upstairs to get his skateboard. He then rode it downstairs}

C: Weee!

JD: Uh, skateboarding is for outside, Clay.

C: Aww.. bummer! You sound like grammy!

JD: What?! I'm not old!

C: *gasp* YOU CALLED GRAMMY OLD????

JD: Uhm, I didn't mean it that way.

C: I'M TELLING!!!!

JD: Bro, she's at work.

C: I KNOWWWW! LEARN TO THINKKKK!!!

C: USE YOUR NONEXISTENT BRAIN THEN!! 

JD: ...

C: Now let's get skateboardin'! yeehaw!

~~~

F: Yes, just like that, Branch. You can even cut it into Croco shape!

B: Yayaya!!

{Branch cuts the cookie dough into little crocodile shapes}

B: Yummy!

{Branch shoves some cookie dough into his mouth}

F: Oh! Uhm, Branch, don't eat that.. wait till it's cooked.

B: Why?

F: Because Grammy said you might get sick!

B: Why?

F: Um, because..?

Oven: BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP

JD: Oof. I'm fine, don't worry.

F: Good, if you broke something, the oven would go out of control and beep all night long!

JD: Thats not how it works, actually, never mind.

{Clay was at a skate park with Viva}

V: Nice moves, Clay! I wanna try now!

C: Alright!

{Viva grabs Clay's skateboard and sits on it}

V: Awh.. it's not working! 

{Viva tries to scoot forward to make it move}

C: You gotta stand up. Let me show you.

{Clay stands on the skateboard}

V: Ohh, okay.

{Viva stands onto the skateboard. She loses her balance and fell}

V: Oof. Ughh! I CAN'T DO IT RIGHT!! 

C: You will! Just keep trying!

V: Okay..! Maybe you do it and I watch?

C: No. You try and I watch.

V: But I can't!

C: Not yet.

V: mmm.. I'll just sit on the ground and watch. You can't make me do it!

C: I know, I hope you try though.

V: Okay..

{Branch and Floyd were working on a puzzle}

B: Nobody leave till last piece is down!

F: Yup!

{2 Hours past by}

F*sniff*I smell burnt popcorn.

B: huh?

{John Dory starts running downstairs}

JD: OH HOLY GUACAMOLE! THE COOKIES!

F: Oh no.

B: Uh oh..

{They run to the kitchen as well}

{John Dory walks into the smoke filled room and grabs some gloves}

JD: Stay back, I don't want you guys getting hurt.

F: Okay..

{John Dory grabbed the cookies out of the oven and threw them outside}

B: Awee.. no cookies..?

JD: No, sorry, Bitty B..

B: its okay...

F: We can always make more tomorrow!

JD: Maybe leave Gram to do it? Or set a timer..?

F: Okay..

B: Can we have popcorn?

F: Ooh okay!

{They went to go microwave some popcorn}

{John Dory sighs}
