It had been her favorite book when she was three. Dairine remembered, vividly, because it had been the first book she'd read on her own. For weeks she imagined that the forecast would say "cloudy, with a chance of meatballs followed by light kool-aid showers." In the way that children do, of course. The older she got, the more she realized it was impractical, and the memory of the book's end would haunt her dreams. She never imagined it would come here.
Dairine awoke in her pup tent to the sound of thick, dull, slapping sounds on the roof outside.
"What the H..."
She pressed her hand to the dark wall and said a few quiet syllables. Light bloomed in from outdoors as a window formed where her hand had been.
Pancakes...?
Dairine rubbed at her eyes, jaw dropping. "No. Way."
She was out of the tent, leaving the door flung open. Of course, from outside, it would simply look as if Dairine appeared from a hanging zipper on the back wall at the end of the second-story hallway.
"Tosh! Tosh Tosh Tosh!" She ran into the bedroom and jumped on the bed, grabbing Toshiko by the shoulder. "Tosh wake up!"
