Misty and Hitch walked back into the tea room. The performance was long over, and the monsters were broken up into little groups, kind of like a mascot convention of sorts. Everypony was getting pictures, and poking and prodding the monsters. They would be asking questions, but only the Knottshurr Tree could speak where everypony could understand, and he only talked during their music performances.
“Hi Sprout,” Misty called, walking over to his table.
“Oh Misty,’ Sprout said back, “Yeah, I’ve got things in perfect working order here.”
“I can see that,” Misty replied, “Everything’s seems laid back around here, you did a good job.”
“So Sprout,” Hitch pitched in, also joining him at his table. “We can get them home by way of a special spell, but it has to be performed at the exact same spot, a week after they arrived, so we need to house them for four days.”
“Uhh, but I don’t really want one of them roaming round my house,” Sprout replied, “Apart from maybe him.” Sprout pointed to the Bay.
“Yeah, you can have the bay,” Hitch said, “I’m sure Phylis would love snuggling with him.”
“Heh, yeah,” Sprout said, scratching the back of his head.”
“Gentlemen, and lady,” Hitch called to the monsters, urging them to come over. “You guys are gonna have to be housed around town for the next few days while we wait to perform the spell again. You can stay wherever you want as long as the residents consent.”
“Yay!” The Flooca exclaimed. Every monster seemed excited to be offered places to stay.
“I wouldn’t mind those three staying here,” Alphabittle pointed to Mount Mound. The mounds smiled at him, clearly content with that.
“And I’m sure I’d like the Flocca at the Brighthouse,” Misty said, “And maybe the Cleomance too.”
“And I can take that one,” Jasper said, pointing to Babushka Knittshurr, “She could knit me a nice blanket or two.”
“Alright gather round everypony,” Hitch proclaimed, let’s get everything sorted.”
*MYM*
DISCLAIMER: The next few chapters will be an anthology of sorts, showcasing all the crazy shenanigans the Knottshurr monsters get themselves into over the next few days while waiting for the spell to be performed. Coming soon!
