The Troll leaders were currently inside a large mushroom house talking among each other. Quincy, Essence, Trollex and Trollzart were in the kitchen while Delta, Poppy, Branch and Barb were sitting on the large comfy couch in the living room, that was connected to the kitchen.

There was a stillness in the air.

Until it was disturbed by the sound of running on the second floor and feet pounding the staircase. Not even halfway down and the pounding stopped. A small ball of green and black fire, with blue orbs for eyes, appeared in the room and quickly took the shape of a 14 year old Pop Troll with light turquoise skin, green and black hair tied into a top knot, an oversized green sweater, black fingerless gloves, black hot pants (which are basically really short shorts made from swim suit material), and green and black stockings. Small gems covered her cheeks, like blue freckles.

The young shapeshifter was jumping up and down on her toes, repeatedly saying "Guys guys guys guys guys!" Until all eyes turned to her.

   "Guess what guys!" She squealed excitedly.
   "What's the word kiddo?" Trollex smiled.

   "I... AM WRITING A BOOK!" She yelled throwing her arms in the air.

There was no reaction from anyone.
   "... And?" Delta pushed. Her arms lowered, now less enthusiastic. "That's it. I'm writing a book." Everyone gave a look to each other.

Her arms dropped to her sides, all traces of excitement completely disappeared. "What."

   "Karma, it's not that we're not happy for you or supporting you. It's just..." Poppy hesitated.
   "It's just that you keep saying you'll write a book and it's gonna be great," Branch continued for her, "and then you start it, but you never finish it, you always get stuck on the first chapter and then give up."

   "Well yeah, I know but this is gonna be different!" Karma said, the excitement returning to her eyes. "This book isn't gonna be a whole long-winded story, it's gonna be a compilation of short stories/skits!"

   "You mean like that one shot book you're still making with the blue hedgehog?" Trollex asked.
   "Sonic the Hedgehog, yeah?" Excitement once again draining away.
   "You told us you were getting to many ideas and ended up starting those new ones and not finishing the first one." Delta dead panned.

   "OKAY!! I GET IT! Despite being in quarantine I've been very unproductive and unmotivated to carry on my books. BUT! I got this idea not even a minute ago and decided to start while I was feeling the motivation!"

   "What's the book about?" Quincy asked.

   "It's an Ask and Dare book!" Everyone looked at Karma confused.
   "... And I want you guys to be a part of it."
   "Nope." Delta immediately answered.
   "Aw c'mon Del, please! You don't even know how it works!"
   "How does it work then?" She asked suspiciously.

   "It's really simple. The reader sends a dare or a question for one of you, or all of you, and all you have to do is do it, or answer it." Karma explained.

   "Seems simple enough! I'm in!" Poppy said encouragingly.
   "I'll join as well, got nothing else to do." Said Branch.
   "Same here!" Called Barb, not looking up from a magazine titled 'Rockers Weekly'.

Everyone else agreed and all eyes fell on Delta, who noticed everyone's gazes. Karma bit her lip and gave her the best puppy dog eyes she could muster. One more uncomfortable look around and finally Delta yelled "ALRIGH' FINE! I'll do it."

   "♡YAY!!♡" Karma cried out happily and wrapped her arms around the Mayor. She mumbled something incoherent and hugged back. Karma jumped back, now more excited then before.

   "Alright! LET'S DO THIS!!"

(I know it's bad but I wrote this at midnight and I'm not rewriting it)
