MCA0: Waaaaaay too freakin' early Monday morning

[needsaparrot]

That sound you hear would be Xander snoring.

That sound Xander hears would be.... the... nonononononononono doorbell.

And then there is no snoring.

There's just Xander muttering "Nononononononono..." and trying to shove his head under a pillow.

And then there's the doorbell again.

And the pattering of tiny feet a herd of tiny elephants towards it.

That sound would be Xander jumping out of bed and tearing out of the bedroom, yes.

[For, uh, the people from last night. Cookie for anyone who can tell me why the deliveryman is so, so, so wrong.]

"Aunt Parker sended it!" Bronwyn confirms. "It was a secret, and I was bein' a sneaksy spy like Aly said so I listened and waited and didn't say anythings."

"...Pizza was a lot easier to deal with," Bridge says plaintively.

[notlostyouare]

"Ooh, can we have pizza?" Bronwyn asks. "I bet kitty wants some pizza!"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Pizza for breakfast?" Bridge says with a shrug, looking over at Xander.

[needsaparrot]

"If they can't reach us 'cause we're in the past and they're in the future, they can't beat us up for feeding her pizza for breakfast, right?" Xander may be saying this to convince himself they can't get beaten up over the cat, too.

"I don't think future me would beat you up," Bridge offers. "And I'd like to think future me wouldn't beat now-me up either."

[needsaparrot]

"Well, yeah, I was mostly worried about me beating me up," Xander admits. "Or, y'know, just the yelling."

[notlostyouare]

"No yelling or being mean, silly," Bronwyn says, shaking her head. "It's a rule!"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Besides, future-uses used to be now-uses, so wouldn't they actually be *expecting* her to show up with a cat?"

[needsaparrot]

"You...have a point."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"I usually do," Bridge grins. "Not always, and sometimes apparently it takes me a while to get there, but there's usually a point."

[needsaparrot]

"You think future us-es already know the cat's name?" Xander adds, the idea hurting his brain,

[notlostyouare]

Bronwyn leans her head down so that her ear is next to the kitty, and listens for a second. Then she says, "I know the kitty's name!"

[needsaparrot]

Xander shuffles the papers from the box. "There's nothing here about his-- uh, her name."

[notlostyouare]

"It's Payback, silly! She tolded me." Sort of. Bronwyn had said 'Is your name Payback?' and the kitty had said, 'k whatever sure. P.S. I'm hungry.'
