     "Alright, the labs done!" Clay stood back and admiried both Wyre and his work.  For the past week, they've been going around the monster world, looking for materials. The lab wasn't the most aesthetictically pleasing, but it would get the job done.  Inside, there was a room filled with random items to make vessels, books for designing, and decorations for the monsters to enjoy.  Wyre had brought over food from Earth island for them to eat, but they quickly ate almost all of it. 
     Wubbox took the last cookie in the bag and started designing a new monster.  He didn't have any ideas for any monster to draw, so he asked Wyre for help. 
     "Alright, so what do you wanna do?"  Wyre asked.
     "I wanna make the monsters based off of- actually, I'm getting tired of just calling them monsters."
     "What do you wanna call them?"
     "Well, I wanna have Wub in the name and they're basically my kids so... what're some other words for kid?"
     They had weird ideas at first. Wubkins? Kidwubs? None of them sounded right. 
     After sitting in silence, Clay had a name idea. "What about the Wublins?  I think its got a nice ring to it."
     "I don't have any other ideas, sure."
     "Alright, back to what I was saying, I want to kinda base the Wublins on different elements? But I don't know how."
     While Clay waited for a response,  He started trying to make another drawing of a potential Wublin when Wyre jumped onto him while he was holding the pen.
     After struggling for what seemed to be forever, Clay threw Wyre off of him.
     "Wyre, What the hell?!"
     "You took the last cookie! I was saving that!"
     "You could just go get another one!"
     "Still!"
     "You fucked up the drawing too! Look at that!"
     Clay pointed at the collection of random scribbles on crumpled paper.
     Wyre looked over at the drawing, but instead of regret or even anger, his eyes instead lit up.
     "Clay, do you see what I'm seeing?"
     Clay looked down at the paper, he realized what Wyre saw in the midst of random scribbles.  A Wublin.
