Third Floor Common Room, Saturday Afternoon

[blessed_twice]

At some point, Wyatt grew bored with the blocks and orbed out of Chris's room into the common room. The TV had some cartoons on, but Wyatt changed the channel. Anyone observing might note he wasn't using the remote to do it.

He found a channel with a movie about dragons on it and clapped in delight. He liked dragons. He wanted a dragon. So he started to call it out of the TV.

But as luck would have it, he took a step backwards and stepped on the actual remote control, changing the channel to a popular children's show. And what he called out of the TV wasn't exactly a dragon.

It was a singing purple dinosaur. "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family. With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you, won't you say you love me too?"


[Open, of course. Based on canon, but Barney wasn't entirely my idea. *bats eyes innocently* ;) ]

"But *why* are you a singing purple dinosnore?" Carmela frowns.

[blessed_twice]

"Because that's what I am," the dinosaur said.

"Because WHY?" Carmela stomps her foot.

[blessed_twice]

"Because!" the dinosaur flailed.

"Because isn't a good answer," Carmela frowns. "Mama says we should always ask WHY because."

[blessed_twice]

"It's the only answer I have," the poor dinosaur said.

"It's a stupid answer," Carmela says firmly. "Can't learn nothing from it."

Barney whimpered and ran away, unable to deal with the wee one's questions.

"THAT'S RUDE!" Carmela shouts after him. She then turns her attention to the TV.

"Hey Mr. TV, can we watch something FUN?" she asks carefully in the Speech. The TV flickers uncertainly at her. "FUN!" Carmela insists a little more forcefully.

The TV switches to cartoons. They're not in English. Or any other Earth language. The cartoon people? Also very obviously not Earth-y in origin.
