Third Floor Common Room, Saturday afternoon

[monkeymonkeydie]

Faced with the prospect of a fight to the death against the resistance outside, Bucky decided to do the sensible thing and guard the common room. For definitions of "guard" that included "watch television" and "take a nap".

Wake him when it's all over, mmkay?

[Open for loyalists or invading rebels.]

Arietty had absolutely no idea what was going on. Living in the walls and only coming out when everyone else had gone to bed would do that to a girl, especially one who was only four inches tall. All she knew was that it was loud and terrifying and she had a feeling that if she stayed in the walls for much longer, they were going to come crashing down around her.

Which would be why she was bolting across the floor of the common room without much worrying getting seen by any creature, be they bean or not.

...Bucky had been napping. Now he was awake, his keen natural instincts perfectly attuned to the scurrying animal on the floor. Or not. "Ew, I'm not touching that. Somebody needs to put out some mousetraps!"

Arietty spun as she ran, firing a tiny foam dart at Bucky's head. "Like I'd fall for a mousetrap!"

She hadn't know that cats talked. Just another thing her father never bothered to tell her.

The dart bounced off Bucky's face, getting him to pay closer attention. "Hey, you're not a mouse, you're a... TINY MONKEY!!!"

He hopped off the couch and beckoned the creature closer. "Come to Bucky! Monkeymonkeymonkeymonkeymonkey..."
