The Mansion Children were gathered in a circle on the treehouse floor. For once, they were all in the same place without simultaniously talking about Danganronpa or cats while trying to kill each other.
"Amy, truth or dare?" Monaca asked, laughing a bit.
"Truth! Truth! Truth!" Peko chanted. "Has she had her first kiss? How many guys has she dated? Has she had-"
Ben slapped his older sister. "No. Stop. Why would you ask that?"
Peko crawled to the corner, biting into a lemon while pretending to be sad.
"Alright," Amy began. "I chose dare."
"Aww!" Peko said. At the same time, Monaca said, "Yes!"
Amy glanced at the younger girl. "I think I regret my decision now. She's scary."
Cinna, who was next to Monaca, edged away.
Amy sighed reluctantly. "What's the dare?"
Monaca smiled, walking towards the window and looking out. She pointed at a flock of geese in the yard. "Hug one."
Jade looked at her little sister, raising one eyebrow.
Alex looked shocked. "Wait, what?"
"She's gonna get bitten for sure!" Brooke squeaked.
"Eh. She'll be fine." Monaca shrugged.
Peko was hopping up and down excitedly. No one knew if it was because of Monaca's dare, or because of what she had planned for Cinna later.
Amy just shrugged, leaving the treehouse and approaching the geese. (NO ONE DO THIS IN REAL LIFE. PLEASE.)
Amy approached her new fluffy friends, arms outstretched. Most of the birds flapped their wings and escaped the death hug of Amy.
Only one goose remained, and Amy ran at it, practically squeezing it to death.
Amy returned to the treehouse, her new friend in her arms. The goose squawked in protest.
"Sounds like he's crying, 'Help me!!!'" Jade noted.
Soon, the goose settled down, proceeding to fall asleep in Amy's lap.
"Alright, who's next?" Peko asked.
