"Oh, no," Mira groaned, when she got home and took her toddler out of his snowsuit and emptied out the pockets and found...it. "You're not supposed to take things out of there. You're not even supposed to be there! How can I...maybe if I wait until tomorrow to return it, they won't have noticed. I can't go back tonight. That would be too suspicious. And they'll think I stole it and then felt guilty, which is just as bad as stealing it and not feeling guilty. And if I say that you took it, then I won't be in trouble for theft, which is good, but I'll still get fired because we really aren't supposed to let anyone else in and I think that even a toddler counts and besides, I clearly wasn't watching you close enough, not that that matters and--" "Kitty!" proclaimed Che, lifting up the rock that he'd taken from the Very Special Museum of Specialness. "No, honey, it's not a kitty. It's a fossil, which is a kind of rock, and--" The rock unfolded in Che's hand and mrrped up at her. "Oh, no!"


Inspiration: Cassius bringing me everything in the house.
Story potential: High.
Notes: Cute. I may be highly biased because of my own toddler, though, but this could be the start of something awesome. And not just cutesy, either. Needs some darkness/texture added to it, this isn't a kid's story. Or, well, it could be a kid's story from Che's POV, but Mira's going to be dealing with a lot more. In fact, could be fun to write it both ways.
