Mixed and Matched Ribbons

Consumed thoughts

(This takes place a few days after the whole Gangle missing incident bc I said so)

Zooble looked at themselves in the mirror, the events from a few days ago were still fresh in their mind, they couldn't get the thoughts out of their mind, Gangle had consumed their every thought, making it impossible for Zooble to focus on anything else. The thoughts of her were like a drug, addicting and impossible to forget. Zooble huffed and turned away from the mirror, unable to look at themselves any longer. "STOP THINKING ABOUT HER YOU IDIOT!" They said to themselves luckily the rooms Caine gave them were soundproof, but they still worried a little if anyone could still hear them, no matter how many times they repeated those words it was clear Gangle wasn't leaving their mind, they just wanted to forget about it and not have it distract them throughout the whole day. When they first met, they had seen her as just another circus member eventually seeing them as someone they could easily get along with but they had never expected to fall for Gangle...they can't be in love with Gangle especially not in this hell. Zooble paced back and forth in their room, trying to come up with a plan to distract themselves from Gangle, but not much was working. Suddenly, a knock on the door snapped Zooble out of their thoughts.

"ZOOBLE! THE ADVENTURES GONNA BEGAN SOON!" Caine shouted as Zooble's antennae's vibrated with annoyance and frustration 

"F@#$% OFF CAINE!" they snapped, already irritable 

"WOAH, WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT FOUL LANGUAGE HERE ZOOBLE!" Caine shouted still in his typical energized tone 

"NOT NOW TALKING DENTURES!" Zooble yelled. Caine's words were already getting on their nerves 

"ISOLATING YOURSELF WON'T DO ANYTHING!" Caine said sounding oblivious to the current state Zooble was in

"I DON'T CARE, I'M NOT IN THE MOOD FOR YOUR ADVENTURE RIGHT NOW!" Zooble shouted back

Caine sighed, giving up on getting them to come out and went back to the rest. Everyone looked at him as he snapped his fingers, teleporting into the air above them. 

"I thought you said you were bringing mix and match over here?" Jax said, looking at his hand as if he was looking at his nails if he had any 

"Well Zooble's.....eh....Zooble's kinda in a situation right now," Caine responded, getting closer to Jax as he did so

"D..DID T..THEY ABSTRACT!" Gangle panicked a bit, jumping to conclusions 

"DON'T WORRY MY DEAR, YOUR FRIEND DID NONE OF THE SUCH!" Caine reassured Gangle, "They're just, um, dealing with some personal issues right now!" He said before continuing on with the adventure explanation and such 

Jax smirked, looking at Gangle, who seemed Gangle looked unconvinced. "Dooon't worry ribbons, I'll check on them. Ease you mind a little," Jax claimed 

Before anyone could say anything, he was gone. DoOdLe looked at Ragatha and whispered, "this is not gonna end well," she claimed. "probably not." Ragatha agreed.

Zooble finally collapsed onto their bed, feeling defeated. "What am I going to do?" Zooble muttered to themselves, feeling lost and helpless they suddenly heard a knock on their door "What do you want?" Zooble asked their voice sounded aggravated suddenly another knock banged at the door "G@&#&$^&T WHAT DO YOU WANT!?" Zooble yelled stuffing a pillow into their face.

Another knock came to the door and Zooble had already had it "D@$^#^T, CAN'T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?!" Zooble yelled, feeling frustrated 

Zooble groaned and dragged themselves off the bed, opening the door to find Jax standing there. "What do you want, Jax?!" Zooble grumbled, not in the mood for any of his antics
