F: blinks then nods

S: kneels first.. they're not in love, they only just met and they're still young, second.. Clay isn't good with expressing his feelings and.. with Viva that seems to be really helping him, so.. I think it's better to leave him be and let him.. figure out his feelings.

S: shrugs maybe he does have a small crush on her, who knows, who cares-

F: I do!!

S: ...what I MEAN is- it's normal for kids.. aaand he's a kid, so let's just let him be better at being expressive and..building new relationships.. without meddling or getting in the way- you get what I'm tryna say??

F: smiles and nods

Vi: Guys??

JD,S,F: look over at Viva

C: walks in behind Viva, holding a sleeping baby Branch

Vi: walks over to the couch and sniffs and places the cracked egg down on it

S: What??? stares at it in shock

F: gasps and runs over to it

F: Oh no!! What happened?!!

F: is about to gently touch it but pulls his hand back remembering how Viva snapped at Clay about to touch the egg, looking up at her

Vi: looks over at him with a sad smile and nods

F: looks back down at the egg and gently touches it

JD: walks over how did this happen??

Vi: I.. I don't know, we just found her and Branch like this

C: Do you think the little devil himself did it- looks down at Branch still holding him

B: starts to wake up and yawns, looking up at Clay with wide cutesy eyes

C: ...DAW COME ON DONT GIMME THAT-

F: Nuh uh! Branch would never! takes Branch from him

S: Well..  we don't know what happened, but he was the only one with the egg.. unlike all of us who were supposed to be watching-

Vi: looks down

Vi: I'm a terrible sister

S: looks at her wait, no, Viva, I didn't mean-

Vi: No, you did, and it's fine, you're right, I should've been watching her turns to look at the egg

S: frowns, feeling bad

C: walks next to him and punches his shoulder

S: Ow!!

S: sighs I can't even get mad at that-

Vi: hugs the egg gently and sighs

Vi: Daddy's gonna be so upset with me..

BroZ: look at each other sadly, then back at Viva

JD: sighs and steps up Princess,

Vi: looks over at John

JD: I mean, sorry, Viva, I don't know if you prefer that more-

Vi: I do, actually

JD: Kay, noted, uhm- sighs again I'll gladly, take the blame for the egg getting cra-

C: Me too

S: I'll take blame too

F: I should've been there too!

JD: ....DAMN IT YOU LOT NOT AGAIN- I SAID I WOULD TAKE BLAME!!

C: and I SAID I WOULD TOO

S: To be fair it is collectively our faults- mostly you John but yeah-

JD: EXACTLY, SO I WILL- ALL OF YOU BUTT OUT-

C: I think you love being leader a little too much-

Vi: giggles softly at their chaos, feeling a little better knowing that they have her back

Vi: hears someone at the front door and gasps quietly

BroZ: all turn to look at her then the door

Vi: I think that's them..

C: looks at the door then back at Viva again and looks down

C: I gotchu

Vi: looks at him, slightly confused

S: Now what're you about t-

KP: Good heavens! What happened in here?? sees how messy the pod is

S,JD,F: ....uhhhhhh

C: Yeah you heard those "uhhhh"'s except from me right? I genuinely have NO idea what happened in here-

RP: sighs deeply and runs her temples I can't bring you all anywhere, nor can I leave you anywhere-

Vi: sighs and steps up

Vi: Daddy?

KP: looks over at Viva

Vi: moves out of view from the egg, showing the cracks

KP: gasps and walks towards it, kneeling in front of it

Vi: bites her lip and looks away from him quickly, holding back tears

Vi: I'm sorry, I-I don't know how it happened, I just found her like this and I-I.. I'm sorry daddy I really am sorry!

C: quickly walks to Viva and stands next to her
King P, Viva's a GREAT sister and I am on my KNEES begging you don't punish her- it's on all of us

Vi: looks over at him with a sad smile

Vi: feels someone grab her hand and looks down to see Floyd

F: smiles up at her then looks at King Peppy who's still looking at the egg

F: Yeah!! holds Branch closer Please don't do anything Mr. PeePee!

B: is fully awake at this point PEEPEE!!

S: Peppy-

F: It's not her fault!!

KP: starts to smile and chuckle

BroZ&Vi:

C: Okay either he's about to go insane or.. yeah he's probably about to go insane-

KP: What's with all the sadness?

KP: picks her egg up This just means she's gonna be hatching soon!!

BroZ: Huuuuuh?

Vi: Wait- REALLY??

KP: Why yes! This is an exciting time for everyone! Our Princess is almost here!!

RP: smiles warmly oh how lovely!!

Vi: Is she really about to hatch soon?? walks closer to the egg

KP: Yes!!

B: somehow crawls onto Peppy's shoulder and looks down at the egg Peepeeee

C: So- it's- it's not broken or anything like that at all right-

KP: Oh no no no, troll eggs are extremely hard to break and they're not meant to break at all. If they crack at all, it just means it's almost time for them to hatch! Most likely in the span of a few weeks or another month

F: Phew!! Princess Poppy is okay!!

KP: chuckles indeed she is

Vi: IM SO HAPPY!! hugs Peppy and the egg

KP: smiles and hugs her back

KP: You're a great big sister Viva, and you'll continue to be one

Vi: smiles, feeling a lot better from earlier thanks daddy kisses his cheek

C: smiles

RP: Well, now that all of this is settled.. what are we gonna do about this mess?

Everyone turns to look at the massacre that's been inflicted to the pod

C: ...still mean it when I said I had no involvement in any of that-
