Ali Cocoa rocks!

I bugged Star a bit today, but thankfully got out of a bath. She said she'd just make Eclipse give me one later. She can be mean but she wasnt that bad today. I got caught in a trap in the forrest the dumb guards had set to capture anyone wandering in the forrest, for some reason, and Star cut me down and then helped make sure I wasnt bruised or scraped up too bad.

Then I went down to Ali's house in teh underdark and she was in a really good mood too. Visus was asleep and she was cooking something. I tried to peek in but she put her hand over the pot and got a nasty burn. I'd have whapped her but I guess after all she's been through plus giving birth she's used to pain, and she was able to heal it too.

Finally she revealed what she'd been cooking. It was LIKE hot cocoa in the same way that wine is like scotch. This stuff was more the consistency of chocolate syrup. Best cocoa I ever had. Me and Ali both made horrible messes of ourselves and got sticky and chocolatey, but somehow she got sleepy and I just plopped her in bed. The bad part about getting me all hyper is I got Visus duty. I think she planned it like that.

So I just hung out in his room and naturally he woke up a while after I came in. We played with some blocks, which got chewed on and then he played with my hat, which got chewed on, so I just made him one of his own. Which got chewed on. I'm sure Ali will be happy about his new hat.

He went to bed after a while and I ended up reading my spell books. Around some time in the morning I was still bouncing around from the cocoa and he was waking up rather cranky and smelling weird, so I gave him a bottle of chocolate milk and ported him to Ali's room.

I wonder how much she'll pay me for babysitting.
