Packing

In the family household, chaos was at its peak. Loud voices echoed through the rooms as others bickered over who gets the biggest bag for their belongings, and other others scurried around, trying to organize the mess.

In the middle of the commotion, sat Taco, who was clearly bored out of her mind. She watched as her family members continued running around the house like headless chickens, all while she simply sat on the couch, twiddling her thumbs.

Liy threw her extremely heavy luggage down, almost landing right on Firey Jr. "WATCH WHERE THE FUCK YOUR GOING NEXT TIME!" he screamed.

Liy simply rolled her eyes, not even bothering to apologize. "I'm sorry, but maybe you should watch where you're standing next time," she replied coolly. Firey Jr. fumed, glaring at Liy as if silently challenging her.

Taco couldn't help but snicker at their bickering. She found their constant arguing both irritating and amusing, as it provided some entertainment amidst the chaos.

Bracelety, carrying her own obnoxiously large luggage, chimed in. "Guys, can you chill? We're supposed to be packing for Paris. Stop fighting!" she reprimanded, trying to play peacemaker.

"Haha!! Babe, that's so funny!" A close-by Bottle laughed, calling her girlfriend Pin on her phone.

Pin, on the other side of the call, responded with a weary sigh. "Babe, I think you need to stop laughing at everything I say," she said, chuckling nonetheless. Bottle feigned shock, dramatically clutching her chest like she had been shot.

Flower yanked Bottle's phone and made a run for it.

"Hey! Give it back!" Bottle yelled as she gave chase. The whole house was in disarray, with everyone screaming, yelling, and stomping around. Amongst the chaos, Taco remained seated, still watching everyone with an amused expression.

While Bottle chased after Flower, Firey walked in carrying a large suitcase. He stumbled a bit, clearly struggling to carry the weight. Frustration was etched all over his face as he tried to find a place to put the suitcase.

Lollipop, who had been quietly reading a magazine in the corner, couldn't resist a jab. "You need some help there, big guy? Or are you enjoying your workout?" she teased, looking up from her magazine.

"Very funny, Lollipop. But I got it handled," Firey grumbled, giving her a glare. He finally managed to set the suitcase down, panting heavily.

All while Penny was rewatching the same exact Bumble Nums Christmas special around 100 more times

Leafy, desperately trying to drown out the noise, was sitting next to Penny. She had her hands over her ears and an exasperated expression on her face. "Penny, can you please turn down the volume? That Christmas special is driving me crazy!" she pleaded.

She just cooed.

Leafy groaned, burying her face in her hands. "I swear, Penny is the youngest in the house, but she's also the most annoying."

Firey approached, massaging his ears. "Tell me about it. I think that Bumble Nums episode has been playing non-stop for hours now."

One of the characters stopped the episode. Somehow, he picked Firey up. "You wanna say that again BITCH?" The character was none other than Stumble. The whole ordeal would be extremely out of character for him.

Firey yelped as he was suddenly lifted into the air. Stumble, a character usually known for his docile demeanor, was now threatening him. Everyone in the room immediately froze, silenced by the unexpected turn of events.

Penny was clapping in amazement.

"Stumble, what are you doing? You're never this aggressive!" Firey protested, his eyes wide with surprise.
