Our story begins in beautiful Hidden Springs, land of gorgeous scenery and secrets
I mean, it's called "hidden" for a reason. I can't even tell you where it is.Cassidy: Why are you in italics?
Pippin: Because I was narrating! Now stop breaking my fourth wall and be introduced.
Cassidy: Sure thing, boss!
Pippin: Here we have our beautiful founder, Cassidy Earthsong.
Cassidy: Aww, you're makin' me blush!
Pippin: And with her, we have Jessica Something and Adam Lavigne from Maroon 5.
Nicholas: Adam Lavigne? Who's breaking the fourth wall now?
Pippin: It's okay when I do it!
Jessica: At least you get a last name.
Pippin: Willow! That's it! Jessica Willow.
Jessica: Too late. Let's just go do our thing while the Watcher tries to get his act together.
Pippin: Umm, good job there, my charges. Way to do exactly what I wanted you to do. Without me asking. Or playing any real role in it. Or making me feel necessary.
Cassidy: I still love you, Pippin.
Pippin: Thank you, Cassandra.
Cassidy: Whatever.
Pippin: So,
Adam Lambert from Maroon 5 Nic, how about you quit your job and register as a self-employed gardener?
Nic: Hey, that's the first good idea you've had.
Pippin: Sass aside, I accept the compliment. And you, Jessica
Willow,
Jessica: Let me guess, you want me to quit my job so we'll both be self-employed so we can be readily available daycare when the heir arrives?
Pippin: Have I done a dynasty with you before? You really seem a bit too aware...
Cassidy: I'm making friends! Can that be my job?
Pippin: Actually, that's not a real job, but I like having you accomplish your lifetime wish, so carry on...and if you happen to find your dream man...
Cassidy: Oh, I've already got one!
Pippin: What?
Nic: Yeah, Pippin, what girl doesn't find Adam Lavigne dreamy?
Pippin: Stop getting that reference! Oh, are you feeling sweet on this interesting green townie, Jessica?
Jessica: Eh, he's cute and all, but he's kind of a jerk, so I'm just having fun antagonizing him.
Cassidy: Let's go on a date! Right now!
Nic: Done!
Pippin: Umm, isn't the guy supposed to be the one dipping the girl?
Cassidy: Don't spoil the moment, Pippin!
Pippin: And of course we have a lovely moment of eating together...at separate tables.
Cassidy: We're flirting across the way! It's romaaaaaaantic.
Nic: And her idea.
Pippin: I guessed as much.
Cassidy: Let's have a wedding party!!
Pippin: Not gonna lie, she's delightful!
Nic: Umm, how about first I take you to a romantic overlook of the town and propose unexpectedly and romantically?
Cassidy: This is so romantic and unexpected!
Pippin: It's so sweet how she plays along.
Nic: No, I think she really forgot what we were doing on the drive over.
Pippin: Well, there's another surprise for you when we get home.
Cassidy: Ah burglar!! He can be an NPC best friend!! Let's say hi!!
Nic: Actually, I think he's busy stealing my truck at the moment. No worries, though, I called the police.
Pippin: Umm, isn't the thief driving away? While the officer is approaching the victims? And is his car parked
in the police car?
Cassidy: Car on car violence. It's a hate crime!
Pippin: Well, you're out a truck, the wedding's not until tomorrow...
Cassidy: Baby-makin' time!!!
Pippin: Well, that escalated quickly.
Nic: Shh, we're having a moment.
Cassidy: Lots of them!
Pippin: Fast forward to the wedding party!
Pippin: The wedding venue was some local park that has a name I've forgotten.
Jessica: But you sure remembered it had a pond for me to fish in and seeds for Adam Lambert from Maroon 5 to gather.
Pippin: Stop getting that reference!!
Cassidy: And you, Nic Riverhawk, take me, Cassidy Earthsong, and by our powers/last names combined, we summon the Riversongs!
Nic: You're not correcting her fourth wall breaking?
Pippin: Nope. I approve. In fact, she said it as your vows, so it's legally binding now.
Cassidy: I approve as well!
Pippin: But no one, not even the horse, approves of one of the guests.
Bad Horse: I say neigh!! Oh, and congrats to the happy couple. Now excuse me while I trample this gal.
Cassidy: You're excused.
Pippin: And that night, friendly zombies came around to pose for pictures.
Pippin: And we received delightful news.
Cassidy: I have a baby!! In my belly!! And I didn't eat one, if that's what you're thinking!
Nic: no one's thinking that, dear.
Jessica: Ugh, now it's all I
can think about.
Pippin: Here, we'll send something to distract you then.
Nic: Don't go into the light!!
Pippin: And she disapproves.
Pippin: And while Jessica continues making enemies, Casper continues making friends.
Cassidy: Boom! Potion! Friends!!
Pippin: And Cassleen takes some time to read.
Cassidy: Pippin? My name is actually AAAAHHHHH!!
Pippin: AAAAHHHHH? What a strange name...
Cassidy: No! Baby!!
Pippin: you know, you use exclamation points a lot.
Cassidy: Not the time!! baby coming!!!
Pippin: Oh, the baby's coming!! Hurry, you head for home and I'll see if I can put together the next update!
Nic: Stop breaking the fourth wall, Pippin.
Cassidy: Not the time!!!
