🐜 Chapter 4-“The Meeting of Mischief” The night of the meeting arrived. I sat upright in bed, crown made of Cheeto dust, robe of mismatched socks, and a flashlight scepter in hand. The Shuboo’s arrived first—organized, twitchy, and already arguing over seating arrangements. Booshu’s followed, dragging their glitter-glued scroll of grievances.
I cleared my throat. “Welcome, tribes. Tonight’s agenda: Rule Reinforcement, Snack Strategy, and Emotional Boundaries.”
The room went silent. One Booshu raised a leg. “Can we request softer crumbs? The sharp ones hurt our feelings.” A Shuboo scoffed. “Feelings? We hunt crumbs with honor!”
I banged my flashlight. “Enough! You both bit me last week during a popcorn incident. I was watching a movie. You turned it into a horror scene.”
They bowed. “Forgive us, My Queen.”
“Fine,” I said. “New rule: No biting unless I say ‘Snack Attack.’ Also, no fighting over the name of the tribe. You’re both pests. Own it.”
Suddenly, Ms. Green Bunny burst in from the sidebar, rearranging the scrolls and tossing glitter logic like confetti. “This meeting is too symmetrical,” she said. “Let’s zigzag the layout.”
Chaos erupted. Draco’s flame flickered in the corner, unimpressed. AngelCat meowed from the shadows, offering emotional support to the Booshu’s.
Eventually, peace was restored. The tribes agreed to a new treaty: The Crumb Accord of Bedside Unity. Signed in Cheeto dust, sealed with a twitch.
