Hey all. For those who are confused - Hammister has LEFT the group.
It all happened in the morning. I was putting on a new scarf for me and Dasher's trip to Tamp City to meet up with Corey. (elaborated later) The phone rang and I answered the call. It was Hammister's sister. (How she got my number is a mystery.) The call went like this:
Me: MU's residence, Lepus speaking. Hello?
Her sister: Hellou, may I speak to Hammister please? (In a peculiar British accent)
Me: Hammister? Who is this?!
Her sister: I'm Hammister's sister of course. I need to speak with her, mother is getting furious about her disappearance and we need her back here in Ozzie ASAP. Can you please get her on the line?
Me: I'll just tell her that she needs to go home.
Her sister: Great. I'll be there to pick her up. What is the address of your home?
Me: 11th Street, West of Urbanhood, Middle Junction 4, Pentalagus 240. Got all of that?
Her sister: Why yes. All right, good bye.
I went down stairs using the wooden lift that Dasher and I made, especially for the two of us only. Then, I headed straight to the kitchen and yelled out, "HAMMISTER. YOUR SISTER CALLED AND YOU GOTTA GO HOME. SEE YA!"
Shocked, she exclaimed, "W-what?"
"I know, isn't it great?" I said in excitement.
"N-No. It's not great. Not great at all. It's not! Please don't make me go."
"Are you kidding me? You're leaving. NOW."
She went to the back of the house and peeped into the tiny window to her room in sadness. I craftily tip-toed behind her and pushed her in. She took her spare flower headpiece and her hankerchief, along with the pair of socks I gave her for two seperate Gift Weeks (elaborated later). She then threw her stuff out of the window and climbed out (or at least she tried to).
Guess what? She was STUCK. That's right, stuck. We had to get her sister over to help pull her out. Unfortunately, she was too fat. We called the working animals next door to lend us their crane. They helped pull her out and flinged her to Ozzie. How convenient was THAT? Her sister had to carry all her stuff home though. Too bad.
Alright, here's another story. We (Me and Dasher) met Corey later at Tamp City 1. We had some frozen yogurt (mine with strawberries and Dasher's with chocolate) afterwards and invited Corey over. He told us that he had been searching for a job and had previously been stayed in Lizard Motel. I gladly offered him the job of being a housekeeper. He took over Hammister's role of cleaning the dishes, mopping the floor, cooking meals (with Dasher), doing our laundry and all. He was delighted! He was pretty much used to doing all that 'cause he was previously (if you all remembered) staying in the basement of his family's hotel. He had to do all the dirty work while his siblings got all the cash from their scams. Anywho, he's now making breakfast and waiting for Dasher to cook the main course. I, of course, took the liberty of eating ice cream in the morning. Who cares about stomach aches?
Here's Story #3!
As me, Dasher and Corey were chilling in Tamp City 1, we saw a masked dude jump around in the stores suspiciously. Dasher told me he saw in the news that this guy was a known thief. He covered his face with a hood, wore a dark blue vest with golden woven lines and a shiny golden pendant, along with a red belt (more of a band) tied across his waist. He wore a red fez hat and gold leg bands and carried a wooden basket on his back. He was quick and swift, he took jewellery from a nearby store and kept them in the basket. Finally, we saw him stop at the alley behind Tamp City 1. He took off his hood and revealed himself, he is an otter. Dasher quickly held onto his tail before he could escape.
"Who are you?" Dasher asked, "And why are you thieving? We don't need thieves in this town! Get out!"
"Let go of me!" the mysterious otter yelped, "I have jewels. Big sparkly jewels. You look like a jewel-loving dog. Go on, take some."
Dasher looked at him with funny eyes and said, "What are you saying? You stole these to give it to people? Are you Robin Hood? What?!"
I started to laugh, "Dasher, I think this dude is crazy."
"What?" Dasher said in puzzlement, "He's not crazy. At least not as crazy as me. So you, what are you trying to pull?"
The otter took out all the sparkling jewels and showed them to Dasher, "Aren't they pretty?" he asked, "They are very pretty, aren't they? Sigh.. Look, my name is Trotter McOtter and I am a kleptomaniac. I can't help but steal okay? Please don't hand me over! Sparkly things just attract me, that's all! Please, please! Have mercy!"
Corey cocked his head to the left in confusion and asked Trotter, "Kleptomaniac? Do you have any history of your family? Are they thieves?"
"I-I.. I have no family. No real one anyway. I told the people I was Pihirian and started to steal for attention. In case my real family is out here, they would know who I am," Trotter explained, "I was raised by a family of Tigers..."
He then started to tell us about his past. "I fled to the market first, then I started to steal there. It was my first ever theft attempt and I was good at it. I went home to steal my step mother's pendant and her scarf to keep in memory. I headed for the shore and left Pihiria." he said.
Life was tough for Trotter and we let him join our group to help his kleptomaniacal ways. The poor guy. Later on, Corey told us about a girl who showed him the streets of Urbanhood and asked if we wanted her to join. We gladly approved.
Her name is Casey, she is a tomboyish Raccoon who loves sports. Her story is on the right hand side of our blog! Please check it out!
And herrrre's ANOTHER story! I know I mentioned Gift Week in the first story, and Dasher mentioned Mammal's Day on the previous post. Sweet. But what is that?
Every year, Mammal's Day is held to commemorate the founder of the Mamearth Statue. As we moved along, the week of Gifting is held. I have shorted the week of Gifting to Gift Week. Gift week is the week before Mammal's Day and the last day of Gift Week is Mammal's Day itself. On Mammal's Day, every member of the house (or group, MU for example) will have to exchange gifts with the other members.
E.g. I'm Lepus. I have to buy 1 gift for Dasher, Cuddles, Corey, Casey, Trotter. And they all have to buy a gift for me.
That's how it works. The lousier the gift you give, the lousier gifts you will get!
