The mun was not going to post Boo in this weekend. She was going to take some time to finish slowtimes and work on small plotty things. However, the mun forgot that she had IDEAS. She also forgot that she, too, is helpless against the cuteness that is Boo. And SO, here we are.

Boo is outside her blanket fort. She appears to be All Better! from last week's being sick thing. She's hopping around and singing. On top of her blanket fort there is a half eaten plate of cake and a pink Hello Kitty! sippy filled with lukewarm hot chocolate.
Boo has definitely been affected by the people she's met here.

It should be noted what Boo is wearing! She has on a white t-shirt with a large, red " Hello, My Name Is " logo on it. And in the name portion of the logo "Boo!" appears to be handwritten on it. (except it's not hand written; it's printed on there like the rest) On the rest of the shirt there are smaller and different colored "Hello, My Name Is" logos, with all of the names she's called on them. "Boo!" is there a few more times, "Grace" and "Gracie" are on there at least two times each, "Half Pint," "Squirt" "Zow" "Mike" and "Mike Wizowski" are also featured prominently. There is also "Little Bit", "Little One" "Cutie" and possibly several others that the mun has forgotten.

She also has on black jean shorts and white bunny house shoes that JINGLES WHEN SHE MOVES HER FEET. This might explain why she's dancing around. SHE LOVES HER NEW SHOES!

It's unclear where Boo got all these items, or how they got onto her person. But she has them on and she LOVES THEM and thus it's all happy making in the end.

Oh, the Boo Pours It All Show would certainly end with a beached Fred the Fish.

So Kate gingerly lifts Fred's bag, holding its edges firmly and leaving plenty of room for Boo-sized hands to quasi-help with the pouring.

"Ready?" she asks, the bag hovering safely over the lip of the tank.

Boo grins and starts pouring. She makes a triumphant squeeful noise when Fred Fish plops into the water.

EEE!

Kate laughs and discards the now-empty plastic bag in a nearby trash can.

"Good job," she grins, then points to Fred as he swims about in his new surroundings. "Check it out, Boo. Think he likes his new home?"

Of COURSE he likes them. Boo and Kate picked them out, after all.

Boo squeels and points excitedly at Fred-in-the-tank.

"F'ED ISSS!"

Another laugh as Kate nods.

"I see."

A thoughtful beat.

"And now what are we going to do with him?"

They can't exactly leave him here on the bartop. Or in Boo's blanket fort.

Boo blinks at Kate.

Isn't it obvious?

She points to the stairs.
"Lellow Kake hos!"

It's Kate's turn to blink.

But she doesn't — can't — Fred can't ...

But there's really no other solution, is there?

"Lellow Kake hos'!" Boo is all excited about this idea! She touches the glass on Fred's tank.

"F'ed isss! Lellow Kake hos!"

Well, then.

Boo wins. Obviously.

"Okay ... Fred the Fish can stay in my room."

It'll only take a small army of wait-rats to get Fred and his tank upstairs. Maybe there's a pulley system. Or a dumbwaiter.

Boo turns around and beams at Kate.

"lesdoe Lellow Kake hos!"

" -- right now?"

Of course. Boo's two. Two-year-olds are all about the instant gratification.

After a conversation with Bar that involved several napkins, the aforementioned small army of wait-rats does appear, and hurry to move Fred the Fish and his tank to Kate's room.

Kate looks at Boo.

"Ready?"

Boo wiggles down and grins and hops over to the army of waitrats and squeals at them and then hops back to Kate and squeals at her and bounces all around her.

EXCITED BOO IS EXCITED!

Clearly!

Kate holds out a hand, laughing.

"I've never taken care of a fish before — you may have to help me out, okay? Help feed him?"

She's making a mental note to ask Bar for a copy of So You Have a Fish Now. Or maybe Fish Tanks for Dummies.

Boo nodnodnodnodnods! "Hep F'ed Issss!" She puts her arms up to be held.
"Boo Lellow Kake hos hep Fe'd Iss!"

"You'll be a good helper, I can already tell," Kate grins.

She picks up Boo and heads upstairs.

The wait-rats have a surprisingly good lead, and by the time they reach Kate's room, the tank is already on the desk and the rats are gone.

Boo leans her head against Kate briefly on the way upstairs, but once they reach Kate's room Boo scrambles down.

"F'ED ISS!" She runs over to the desk, climbs up on the chair and pushes her face against the glass.

"Hiii!" She pokes the glass and waves at Fred.

As Fred takes cover inside his house that Boo had requested from Bar, Kate walks over, standing beside the chair and grinning at Boo's excitement.

"Where'd he go?" she asks, leaning down a bit, all the better to see into the tank.

Boo looks around the side of the tank.

Then around the other side.

"HOS!" She points and looks up at Kate, triumphant.

Kate laughs.

"Oh, I see," she nods, spotting Fred's pocket-sized tail. "Think he wants a nap?"

Boo frowns thoughtfully and looks closely at Fred.

Then she looks back at Kate and points to her bed.
"Slep!"

Kate looks at Fred.

Then at Boo.

At the bed.

And back to Boo.

"Oh, sweetie, Fred sleeps in the water. In his own house. See?"

She points to Fred's house.

Boo tilts his head and looks at Fred thoughtfully for a looong moment.

"F'ed iss slep wad'r hos?"

She reaches up and touches the water gently.

Kate nods encouragingly.

"Fred the Fish sleeps in the water, that's right. All fish sleep in the water."

She ruffles Boo's bangs.

"Not like us. We sleep in beds like that," she adds, inclining her head toward it.

"Slep Lellow Kake?" Boo points to the bed. "Hep F'ed Isss."

Kate headtilts slightly.

"Fred's good in the tank," she says slowly. "But you can sleep in the bed, Gracie-Boo. Anytime you want."
