Just about three years have passed since Toodles had moved out of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and him, as well as the Mousekadoer and the Handy Helpers, moved into The TOON House, where they were given warm welcomes and positive feedback, especially for all of the wonderful help they would always provide when difficult situations always swirled inside and all around the house. Of course, being a part of his skill, Toodles always has his trusty Mousekatool bag, filled with any numerous items that’ll be needed throughout with the Mousekadoer being the place where he can download more, making him the luckiest piece of technology in the entire house!

And not only that, he and Drawer have been known to get along quite well together! Most of the time while Drawer is working on his collections, spending time with Steven and welcoming new people, Toodles would always fly right in, feeling happy and cheerful! But luckily, his kindful spirit was always welcome for old and new residents of the house!

But one day, the memories of the magical, mechanical clubhouse were starting to return back into his mind. He can remember the fun times he had with Mickey Mouse and his pals before he became a part of the TOON family. While he was thinking back on all of the fun times he had, Drawer was showing Steven, who was 14 years old at the time, how he would normally welcome new people into The TOON House for the very first time.

“Okay, Steven.” Drawer smiled. “You ready to see how a pro like me welcomes some new people into this house?”

“Absolutely.” Steven replied bravely. “I kinda figured you’d need some help with this job.”

“Great!” Drawer approved as he grabbed his clipboard. “And lucky for you, we've got a few people from Playhouse Disney moving in today!”

“Excellent.” Steven approved. “Who do we have first?”

“Let's see here…” Drawer said as he looked. “We've got somebody named… Dance-a-Lot Robot.”

“Interesting name for a robot.” Steven chuckled. 

At that moment, that same character had just arrived! He was a literal robot that was blue, had red claws, a cone-shaped head, and even an antenna on the top of his head!

“It is time to get in the groove!” Dance-a-Lot happily said.

“And there he is right now!” Drawer excitedly said as he offered him a handshake. “Welcome to The TOON House, Mr. Dance-a-Lot!”

“Dance… Dance… Dance… tastic!” Dance-a-Lot happily said while spinning around in 360° degrees. 

“Why don't you groove on up to room 395?” Steven added with a chuckle.

“Groove on, I shall!” Dance-a-Lot approved as he, robotically, made his way.

“He seems nice.” Steven smiled as he checked him off the checklist.

“He can be quite a robotic dancer!” Drawer chuckled. “Okay. Next up are some young musicians known as the Happy Monster Band.”

After saying that, the doorbell rang from outside the house, the Happy Monster Band had finally arrived at The TOON House as they were staying there while they were on their world tour. This particular monster band were made up of different-shaped monsters and they were named L.O., Frred, Bluz, and Ink, they even brought their respective instruments, being a bass guitar, an electric guitar, a keyboard, and of course, a set of drums, which were being brought inside, thanks to the help of Mel the Dog.

“I believe this is the right place, dudes.” Fredd said with a small smile.

“This IS the right place!” Steven smiled. “Welcome to The TOON House, boys!”

“Whoa!” L.O. gasped. “Pretty cool place, guys!”

“Thanks!” Drawer approved. “Mel, will you bring all this stuff upstairs for these monsters?”

“Ruff!” Mel replied as he proceeded to carry their musical equipment.

“Be careful with that keyboard.” Bluz added as they all went upstairs with Mel. “I just got it repaired.”

“See ya, you musical beasts!” Drawer chuckled. “What's next, Steven?”

“Says here that four colorful sprites from a place called… uhh… Grotto's Grove.” Steven replied.

“Oh yeah!” Drawer remembered. “My pal, John Tartaglia told me about them. They should be here any minute.”

As he was getting the front desk a wipedown, Shade quickly rolled up as the Sprites from Grotto's Grove arrived at the house to stay over! These Sprites, you might be asking about, are composed of four colorful and magical creatures, each with their own personalities. Ginger was a purple and pink Air Sprite, Basil was a green Earth Sprite, Lily was a bilingual Water Sprite, and her younger brother, Root… was the shyest of them all and is still learning how to be like them. 

“Welcome to The TOON House, Sprites!” Steven greeted as he held out his hand, offering a handshake to them.

“Uhh… hi.” Root nervously said to him.

“It certainly is a pleasure to meet you!” Basil smiled happily.

“This is a really fascinating place!” Lily gasped in amazement.

“Thanks!” Drawer approved. “We have a pond and a garden over by Rocket's garage in the backyard. Please feel free to check it out.”

“We certainly will!” Ginger smiled as they walked away.

“Sweet!” Basil smiled with sheer excitement. “Come on, guys! Let's go!”

“Bye, Drawer!” Lily added as she went with them.

“Bye, Drawer.” Root added with a small wave as he went off to join the others.
