Story time

Froglet: Mommy, I just made up a story. Can I tell you my story?
rainette: sure.
Froglet: Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who lived in a pretty castle. And there also was a dragon. The dragon had a treasure box with a key, and the princess was curious, so she stole the key from the dragon and opened the box.
rainette: o_O
Froglet: and the box was FULL OF DIAMONDS! Then the dragon looked for the key, and couldn't find it, and he saw the Princess with the key...
rainette: Oh dear!
Froglet: but the Princess had a magic invisible sword, so she killed the dragon and lived happily ever after in her castle with the diamonds.
rainette: but the poor dragon is dead.
Froglet: well, he was mean. He wanted to burn the Princess.
rainette: ...
Tadpole: I have a story too! Me too!
rainette: ok
Tadpole: one day, there was a pretty bunny rabbit, and a regular bunny rabbit.
rainette: !
Tadpole: and the pretty bunny rabbit jumped REALLY high, over the rainbow.
rainette: wow!
Tadpole: and then the wolf came and ate him. The end.
rainette *headthunk*

Huh. Kids.

I'm not sure how old Froglet is, but I love that story. It has a beginning, middle, and end, motivation (curiosity), and magic. :D

Also, it sounds as though Tadpole has grasped that physical beauty can be, uh, powerful but dangerous. *nods* Hee!

My kid keeps making fanfic of Pro Wrestling. He's nine. No, I will be not showing him some of the comms--yes, there are slash comms for this.

Froglet is 6, Tadpole is 4. :D They have stories to tell, that's for sure.

There are slash comms for Pro Wrestling? *dies* Out of sheer curiosity, which ones? (And will I feel the terrible urge to bleach my eyeballs if I go have a look?)
