Groovy Tunes, Saturday, 4/12

[meetingsnoopy.livejournal.com]

Groovy Tunes wasn't usually open Saturdays, but Melody had suddenly realized she should probably do an inventory. So the record shop door was open, and the proprietress was hunched over a dusty bin of salsa records, trying to count them without using her fingers or toes.

The music on the stereo was "House of the Rising Sun," by the Animals.

The open door meant there was a tiny bear, laser and all, wandering in to investigate the new area. It was a shame it didn't know any current music.

Melody glanced up from her counting, opened her eyes wide, froze, and simply pointed at the visitor. "Bear!" she exclaimed. "Kitties, run. Hide."

The cats fled to the back of the store, though Mopsy, bolder than her sisters, did pause to hiss at the bear along the way.

The tiny bear noticed the hiss, and not knowing what that sound meant, decided to investigate it by following the kitties curiously. Tiny friends!

[meetingsnoopy.livejournal.com]

Oh, no he didn't. Melody jumped between the cats and the bear. "You don't get to eat my friends," she informed him fiercely.

Mopsy hissed again; Flopsy decided to take a more direct route and approached the bear for a sniff. Big friend!

Tiny bear still had a laser, and the tiny bear just wanted to check out the other tiny things.

The bear sniffed back, offering a paw in a gesture of hey there, buddy.

Melody knew the hey there, buddy gesture; she softened and hung back, letting the cats explore. "You don't wanna eat them, do you?" she asked the bear. "Sorry for being all prejudiced and anti-bear."

Flopsy snuck close to the bear's front leg, saying hiiiiii.

The tiny bear lowered its weapon, as if to say Forgiven.

But now it had a tiny friend, and it sort of pushed its leg towards Flopsy, in a sort of pat-on-the-shoulder gesture. Ignoring that cats probably didn't technically have shoulders.

Melody was glad to see the bear put its weapon down. The laser hadn't worried her quite as much as the OMGWTFBEAR-ishness of him, but it was still a concern. "Are you looking for a CD? There's a frog who comes in here sometimes ... Oh! But I so wouldn't assume you had his taste in music."

Flopsy purred and licked at the (slightly) big(ger) friend's paw.

The tiny bear looked up at her, a little confused. It hadn't really heard a lot of music, but it was in the Hannah Montana demographic.

And then the tiny bear nudged its new tiny friend with its nose.

Melody could get a lot from a confused glance. she was used to them, and had learned to weigh their nuances. "Hannah Montana?" she suggested. "She's awesome. Oooh, or Jonas Brothers. Or ..."

She busied herself babbling about teen pop as the kitty nudged back at the tiny bear, then ran away, glancing over her shoulder. Could big(ger) white frind play tag?

[fh-bears.livejournal.com]

The tiny bear knew tag! It was very good at tag. Leaving its laser behind, it started after Flopsy, skidding on the floor a little at first.

[meetingsnoopy.livejournal.com]

Tag was the BEST. Flopsy ran between nice-blonde-lady's legs (Melody leaped aside) to take a weaving path under the store's CD racks. If cats could laugh, she would be.

The tiny bear chased after her, having a blast, and at one point ran itself into a CD rack. It stopped long enough to look really confused at the big thing that obviously shouldn't have been in its way.

[meetingsnoopy.livejournal.com]

"I know," Melody said sympathetically. "We have waaaaay too many country CDs right now."

Cottontail decided to join his sisters and tried to sneak up behind the tiny bear.

What was that behind the tiny bear? Oh! It was another tiny friend! Overjoyed, the bear now had to decide who to chase!
