The Varmints! (ง •̀෴•́)ง Do What They Do Best

Riding on Jeffy's shoulder and gesticulating with tiny squirrel paws was MAYBE not the way that they were expected to complete this challenge as a pair. (It was, in fact, definitely not.) But teeny tiny clawed hands WERE better at scratching itchy skin and oh my GOSH she'd been so itchy??? That was like NOT a fun trap, freshmen!!! Essie would take a hundred more inks to the face first. Or, okay, at least FIFTY.

The floor starts to open and Essie figures they're about to get like SPIKED to death or SUPER BARBECUED because both of those seem like SUPER entertaining ways for freshmen to try to kill them. (She doesn't realize she should actually be worrying about FIRE ANTS.) But then there aren't death spikes or bursts of flame, there's... basically the greatest thing ever???

One second a small rodent is gliding off Jeffy's shoulder and disappearing into a pit of plastic balls, possibly never to be seen again, the next there's an explosion of plastic balls as a fully formed Essie bursts out from below the sea of them. She squints one eye shut and aims a red ball at Jeffy's forehead, "Bet you've been thinking a crown fer each of us, but I reckon I can put one on top of the other and make a MEGA CROWN all for myself."
