"Mommy? Can I has story?" Grace Anne Possible stood there in the doorway to the family room, holding her blankie and looking over at her mother.

Shego looked up from her textbook and over at her beautiful daughter standing there in her pink nightgown. She smiled and said, "Sure thing Muffin. You run to bed and I'll be there in a minute."

While Gracie was racing to her bed, Shego stood and stretched. Abby was on vacation, visiting her folks in Seattle otherwise she might have taken care of things. It wasn't an issue, as Shego loved taking care of her daughter. Her and Kim's daughter was, without a doubt in her mind, the singularly greatest thing Dr. D had ever done. With a quick glanc at the clock she realized what the time was and that made her a bit worried. Kim was very rarely at the library this late. She grabbed her communicator and checked in with her wife.

"What's the sitch?" replied Kim as she answered. The red head looked almost as if she wasn't really there, in terms of focus.

"I was just wondering where you were as it's late and I'm getting ready to put the Muffin to bed." said Shego, smiling at her redheaded troublemaker. She missed seeing her wife more often but she knew that the girl's schooling was important.

"Sorry Eme. I'm busy trying to finish this research for my final paper in Professor Warner's class. I'll be home in maybe an hour? I'm not sure. Give Gracie a kiss for me?" Kim looked distracted and it was clear to Shego that her thoughts were on the paper and not her.

Shego sighed, "Sure thing love. See you soon."

"I love you Eme." Kim gave Shego the smile that was for her alone and that helped things.

"I love you too Princess." Once she hung up Shego headed into the bedroom and saw that Grace was under the covers already. "Ready for bed Muffin?"

Grace nodded. "Can I has tucks?"

Shego grinned wickedly. "Does my little Princess need tucks?"

She leapt towards the bed and began to tuck the blankets all around Grace while saying, "Tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck tuck!"

This got Grace giggling and Shego couldn't hold back the grin.

Shego stopped tucking her daughter in and pulled the chair over. "So you want a story?"

Grace nodded, anticipation clearly on her face. She loved story time. It was the bestest part about bedtime.

"Alright then. Let me think..." She looked over at the small bookshelf and scanned the titles. Nothing there really seemed to fit what she was in the mood for. Maybe she needed to make something up for the Muffin? But what? A burst of inspiration struck and Shego chuckled. Yes, that would be perfect. "I have a special story for you tonight. This is a tale about the Big Blue Idiot."

Grace looked confused. "Who he Mommy?"

"Well, the Big Blue Dork is this man who is blue all over, has funny eyes that get really large when he is surprised and really tiny when he is glaring at you. His hair is dark and it looks like he never washes it and he has a scar that he thinks makes him look dashing. The Big Blue Dork thinks he is a brilliant genius who will take over the world but he isn't all that." Shego was starting to enjoy this. Maybe Dr. D was useful after all?

"Now the idiot didn't work all alone. The Big Blue Dork had a beautiful assistant, named Green Girl who had long dark hair and she was mischievous."

"Like you Mommy?" asked Grace, paying rapt attention to her mother.

"Like me. Well one day the Big Blue Dork wanted to go to a new lair to make a new plan to take over the world as the old lair was made of cheese and was starting to melt a little. It wasn't made of the tasty kind of cheese but the smelly cheese."

"Ewwwww..." commented Grace.

"It was really stinky. So, he wanted to make a lair in a volcano, because that is what evil villains do. While he was there, he came up with a brilliant plan to take over the world. He would invent a ray that would make people's left shoes disappear and that would show the world that he was a brilliant evil genius and the world would bow to him." Shego chuckled, remembering that particular plot. It had been even more incredibly stupid than usual and she had commented on it a lot.

"That's stupid Mommy."

"I know it is, but the Big Blue Dork was certain that his plan would work. Well his beautiful assistant Green Girl told him it wasn't going to work several times and that made him cry. He said words can hurt and they can but the Big Blue Dork was being extra lame with this plot. Well, since he had nothing for her to do the assistant was relaxing and ignoring him as much as possible as Green Girl still had that cheese smell in her hair and it wasn't coming out yet."

This elicited a giggle from Grace, who thought that hair that smelt like stinky cheese was really funny. Shego hadn't thought so at the time, but it was funny now that she had some distance from it.

"Well, as the Big Blue Dork ranted about how awesome he was and how pretty he was and how people would walk funny because of only having one shoe someone and how people would stub their left big toes a lot, someone broke into his volcano lair to thwart him and his stupid plan."

"Who Mommy... who?" asked Grace excitedly.

Shego thought about some of Kim's stories and remembered something about Animal horoscopes. That would work. "It was the beautiful heroine Blue Fox. She jumped into the main room and her red hair flew behind her as she dropped down into the lair."

"Like my hair?"

"More like your Momma's hair. Now shush. Anyway, she was there with her sidekick Monkey Boy who promptly fell on his face. Blue Fox yelled out, 'I will stop your evil plan now Big Blue Dork!' This scared the Dork and he called for Green Girl to get the Blue Fox. Well, what the Big Blue Dork didn't know was that Green Girl loved to fight the Blue Fox and the two of them flipped around, punching and kicking, having a good time."

"Like you and Momma?"

"Just like that Princess. Well while they were fighting, Monkey Boy went for the Big Blue Dork. Well, the Big Blue Dork got scared and he pulled out his ray gun and fired it at Monkey Boy and it hit him. The silly sidekick stumbled without his shoe and rolled into the Big Blue Dork, knocking the gun away. What had also happened was the Monkey Boy lost his pants."

Grace found this really funny and Shego had to admit that it had been funny seeing how often Ron could manage to undress himself in the middle of combat. She had to wonder if it were some sort of skill.

"The two boys wrestled for a while and the fight between the Blue Fox and Green Girl was still going on. Well, the Blue Fox kicked Green Girl really hard and she flew through the air. While the Big Blue Dork tried to scramble for the ray gun, Green Girl fell on it with a loud crunch and smashed it into millions of tiny pieces." Shego recalled how much that had hurt. It had even managed to bruise her.

"Defeated by the Blue Fox, the Big Blue Dork began to cry big tears saying something about no one loving him and how his plans never seemed to work. Well Green Girl rescued him and they escaped and ran off to another lair." finished Shego.

"What happened next?" asked Grace, eyes wide in suspense. This story had really resonated with her.

Shego smiled at her daughter, leaned over, and kissed her on the forehead. "Well, he had more adventures later on. I can tell you about them later. Now, go to sleep love."

"Okay. Night Mommy." yawned Grace, slightly slurring her words as her tiredness was beginning to win and her eyes were getting heavy.

Shego turned off the light and said "Good Night Muffin. Sleep tight and don't let the bedbugs bite."

Grace snuggled into her blankets some for and fell fast asleep thinking about the Big Blue Dork and how silly he was.
