dear_mun | Muse thinks his Mun is an idiot

Maybe she should just get a teddy bear, I...uhh. I heard one of those helps when you're scared!

They're all soft and fuzzy and you get to hug 'em. [Kronk missed his teddy bear.]

[Sure Kronk. He knows you have a teddy bear. Everyone does. Except him. ~~He hides Ollie behind his headboard.~~]

She's got a couple, but they're shoved in a closet. She likes cuddling her stuffed Heartless instead. [Fen's not sure what kind of sense that makes.]

[Kronk just wasn't sure if a big, muscular guy like him should admit to snuggling an identically dressed teddy bear! But then, he felt bad for being ashamed of the aptly named Fuzzy Kronk too... he was going through some complicated emotions right now.]

What's...uh. What's a stuffed heartless? Sounds comfy!

[Well, Fen's not admitting to even still having Ollie, let alone keeping him so close while he sleeps. He's a nineteen year old Mage, c'mon. Besides, Celia would never let him live it down.]

The stuffed Heartless looks like this. Except her's is handmade, so it's a lot more...lumpy.

[Fen's grinning now. Just a bit.]

[Kronk was a twenty-something year old... Kronk? Kronk was a job in itself, right?]

Woah... that's really cute looking and soft too! Is she good at making her own snuggly toys? I bet it's even better lumpy.

[Maybe he could trade some spinach puffs and a birthday cake for a lumpy stuffed Heartless?]

[Why not? But does he get paid for it? Not that Fen earns any money for what he does. He has to go to school for it still. Yuck.]

Ha, she wishes. If she was, she'd sell 'em. But this one took her a couple weeks, mostly 'cause she gave Igor claws on his feet too. He looks pretty cheap, actually, but she loves him.

[Obviously more than she loves Fen, because damn it, why isn't she working on that app?]

[Yzma paid him! Not much, though. Just the odd few coins to buy himself some treats.]

Aww. It's important that she loves the little guy! That's the most important. [Kronk was all smiles, because he thought it was a very touching story.]

I'm sure your mun'll get to making her app, buddy. Stuff like that always takes time. Maybe you got to throw in your manly charms a little, show some arm and leg and stuff? [Yeaah. Solid advice from Kronk!]

[Treats are always good! He's got a mom who's always baking something or other, so he can save his non existent money for comic books.]

Yeah, it is, but I don't have much patience sometimes. I want to get out sometime this century.

[He considers 'showing some arm and leg and stuff' and almost chokes. No, no, bad idea. On so many levels.]

Naw, I think I can skip the whole manly charms thing, but thanks for the suggestion...

[Kronk couldn't read that well, but he'd probably love comic books with all those pictures!] Oh...uh. Do you think she'll keep you waiting for a whole century? [Worried Kronk face was worried.]

That IS a long time!

[Then, he just laughed.] Yeah, you're right! Not the best idea. Your personality's important too, that's what my Papi always said when I was still growing up.

[Not-A-Wolf-Boy's favorite comics are the ones with more pictures than words. Stuff that goes boom, yay!]

Aw, don't worry about it. I'll get loose way before then. I've got my ways. I'm a Mage, you know. I can use my Dream magic to poke at her in her sleep until she can't help but throw me somewhere...preferably not into a horror game, though. [He winces. Oh yes, avoiding something like that at all costs]

I think it's my personality that's giving her the biggest trouble, actually. She and I gotta go over some stuff.

[And the Mun found a decent pic of her Igor! Ta da!]

Edited 2012-08-05 04:36 (UTC)

[Stuff went boom a lot, in Yzma's secret lab! He'd probably like it.]

My boss, Yzma, she's a sorceress. But I dunno about all that magic stuff, it just sorta confuses me... [One would even question why Yzma would hire someone this dumb to be her lab assistant.]

If you ever have to go to a horror game, you should bring me as a shield! I bet I can feed a whole army of zombies until they get to you. [Kronk didn't mind sacrificing himself for someone he barely knew. Now he lost track of Yzma, he felt a bit useless.]

Ohh... oh, I wanna hug him! Do I get to hug him? [He was so cute!] Woah. That's the biggest lake ever, that there behind him. Can he swim?

[Oh yes. Fen can even make things go boom himself. Note to Everyone Ever: Lightning magic, Water magic, and shiny technology Do Not Mix. He already knew that from a family story, but hey, he had to try it out]

Hey, magic can be confusing to anybody. I've been taking classes just for the Dream stuff since I was, what, six? [He wrinkles his nose for a second. Since that time he accidentally fell into his uncle's nightmare...yeah, six]

The shield offer's nice [and just a tad strange] but I can make my own. See? [Fen holds out a hand, and a bluish-purple mist swirls into form in front of it, before solidifying into a round, translucent shield about the size of a basketball. Fen only holds the spell long enough for Kronk to get a good look before he lets it dissolve. Using that one for too long can be tiring]

It's even called Barrier.

[He grins in response to Kronk's reaction to Igor, and whips the toy out of literal thin air before tossing him in Kronk's direction]

That was an ocean the Mun and her cousins went to last year, and naw, Igor can't swim. He'd probably just float away, though.

[Kronk and magic DEFINITELY didn't mix! But he was still learning. Sort of. Notreally.]

Oh...uh. I never went to magic class, but I did go to interpretive dance class! [Close enough, right? Riiight. But Kronk's weak ankles prevented him from being any good at that. Sniff.]

That's more useful than a Kronk shield! I bet Yzma'd like one of those swirly fuzzy shields. [But she couldn't do that kind of magic; Yzma was more into potions and alchemy.]

I GET TO HUG HIM? REALLY? [There was just so much happiness! Kronk wrapped his big arms around Igor and snuggled him against his chest, carefully.] Hah... he's all soft! Don't worry, Igor, I can't swim either.

But it's easy to float! [For Kronk, at least. He was naturally very boyuant.]

Interpretive dance? [Fen's eyebrows go up into his hair just a little. He's not so much picturing Kronk doing it as having his cousin Celia force him into it. Mother of all nightmares]

Well, was it fun? And y'know, with Barrier you can actually trap people in it. Sorta just make a box around 'em. They can still breathe and everything, just not...go anywhere. [He'll politely refrain from mentioning that you can also squish whatever's in the Barrier Box, because, you know, EW]

Yap, hug away! That's what he was made for, apparently. That and scaring little children at Halloween. [Bad Mun, bad]

Yeah, it was great fun! [No one had to force Kronk to do anything like that... he especially loved strange things like interpretive dance and bird bingo.]

Oh...uhh... that sounds kinda scary. Are they big enough to trap a guy that's all big and muscular and wide and stuff? [He was worried Yzma'd use it against him!]

[Hugging Igor made everything better though. Sosnugglysoft.] He's not scary! He's a really cute little guy and all warm and huggable. [Poking his face, gently. Kronk wasn't going to want to return it!]

[Fen waves a hand]

Don't worry about it; one, it's a rare spell that's hard to learn and takes a lot of work to perfect, and two, the bigger you make the thing, the more it takes out of you. I mean, I might be able to put you in a box, but then I'd probably faint and the spell would just dissolve.

[Embarrassed to admit that? Yep. He watches Kronk hugging Igor silly and grins. Mun's still got her real one, why can't Kronk keep the Dear_Mun version?]

Hey, you know, you can keep him if you want, if he makes you that happy.

That's good! I don't wanna be put in...uh. In a box. [Kronk knew that for a fact! He was an easy-going guy who never questioned anything, but if he wouldn't like to be trapped inside a box.]

[Then, he was all doing this out of pure happiness. Could he REALLY keep Ignor?]

O-oh... really? FOR FOREVER? [It was time for happy tears!]

[No worries for Kronk. There's only one person Fen feels like trapping inside a box, and thankfully she's not here]

Absolutely forever.

[And now Fen's grinning like a big dork. He can't remember making anyone this happy before...except maybe his mom that time he cleaned his room without being asked...but yeah]

I know you'll take good care of him.

This is the nicest thing anyone ever did for me. Ever! [Kronk sniffled a bit, before wiping his eyes with his big forearm.]

I'll take good care of Igor and I'll always look after him and...uh. And give him hugs so he's not scared at night. It'd be less scary with me and Fuzzy Kronk there, right? [Poor Kronk... the chance to run into Yzma at night didn't improve his fear either.]

You're a really nice guy! Do you wanna be my friend?

A lot less scarier. But you know, Igor can be pretty brave too.

[Fen would be scared to run into Yzma at all, let alone at night. Dear god what a face. At Kronk's pronouncement of him being a nice guy, Fen actually blushes a little, rubbing the back of his neck. That's a first]

Sure, if you want. I'm Fenrir, but my friends call me Fen.

I bet he's even braver than Fuzzy Kronk! [Kronk slept on the floor next to Yzma's bed and every morning he woke up because she either screaming at him or because she just stepped on his face. It was a pretty hardcore life for a sweet, not-so-bright guy like Kronk... he'll never understand how life turned out the way it did.]

I'm Kronk... everyone calls me Kronk. [Kronk beamed at him, before noticing the shyness.[ There's no shame in being a nice guy! I'm a nice guy too.

Fuzzy Kronk might be braver than you think. [Fen's starting to wonder if he should not only admit to still having Ollie, but maybe that Ollie used to protect him from the boogeyman. Hmmmm...nope. Awe. Poor Kronk]

Good to meet you, Kronk. [Have the smile returned before Fen laughs]

I try not to act like a nice guy around some people. They eat 'em for breakfast.

[Or in Celia's case, they drop into their dreams and throw rabid vampire clowns at them. He still needs to pay her back for that one]

He's braver than real Kronk. [Kronk looked down a bit, at his sandals.]

That breakfast thing, they said that about Yzma... when she hired me! But she never ate me, not for breakfast and not even for dinner. [He'd been very relieved by that... even if she didn't do anything as scary as that Celia girl, getting eaten for breakfast would still be kinda bad!]

I wonder why they went and said that? Yzma's too skinny to eat a big guy like me.

[Fen gives him a friendly clap on the shoulder]

Well...all being brave is, is doing something even though you're scared to. Like me standing up to my cousin Celia. She's really creepy, and a brat, but I still tell her to get lost. Usually not in such polite terms though. [He smirks a little]

Maybe Yzma's one of those people that can eat whatever they want and not gain any weight- ack, no, sorry, forget I said that. Bad image. [Face, meet palm. Giving others nightmares is not a good way to start a friendship]

Oh...uhh. I can't stand up to Yzma like that! [Kronk just shook his head, smiling to himself. It was nice of Fen to try and inspire him to be a braver Kronk... but bravery had limits!]

Do you think so? [His big smile vanished again.] Oh geez. That explains those hungry looks she gives me sometimes!

[Kronk's innocence was something of a blessing here.]

Well, you never know. One day you might wake up and just decide you don't want to put up with her being mean anymore. [In Fen's case, he'd woken up and decided the best way to get Celia to lay off was to freeze her sneakers to the floor with an Ice spell. It did not end well for him]

[Fen is going to feel bad if he tramples Kronk's innocence, so he's going to change the subject - sort of]

Speaking of hungry, got anything to eat?

Maybe... do you think that'll happen one day? [Kronk himself would put up with it until SHE got sick of him, but his little Shoulder Devil was a different story. His shoulder angels did try to look after 'their' Kronk!]

[Luckily, he was easily distracted by food.] Could make you some, buddy! What are you hungry for?

It could!

[Fen could use shoulder angels of his own...but people might think he was nuts if they caught him talking to himself. Wait. He already does that sometimes, never mind. But snacks! Yaaaay snacks!]

Coconut-covered chocolate fish! Not real fish, just chocolate bits shaped like fish...

[He laughs] Or something normal like blueberry muffins.

[People thought Kronk was a little crazy because of the shoulder angels! And the talking to chipmunks. And the theme song. And-

Kronk wasn't crazy, though! He was just special.]

Woah... that sounds great! I'll make both! [What did a fish look like again? They didn't have many fish... but they did invent chocolate! You're welcome. Also, Kronk was still holding Igor between his right forearm and his bicep; he lived there now.]

Oh.

[ she has totally helpful advice, minus the snickers ]

Is staying awake until morning not an option? That's what my mun does.

[Fen's all for the pointing and laughing thing. As long as the Mun doesn't take it out on him later, anyway.]

She could barely keep her eyes open while she was spooking herself. She managed to stay awake another half hour, though. Actually turned off all the lights when she did fall over!

[He's so proud.]

Oh. Goody she wasn't too scared to sleep with the lights off.

[ because God knows she can't sleep in the dark. ]

What did she spook herself with anyway? My mun's watching -attempting to, really- V/H/S.

She used to sleep with the tv on until the flickering started annoying her. Now she just keeps one of the cats in the room as a guard.

[Fen doesn't think the cat'll do much good in that capacity, seeing as how they all tend to head for the hills when someone rings the doorbell]

She's been reading Creepypasta lately. Stuff about Slenderman. Ugh. Even I could do without that.
