Grogg was not a very happy monster. His day had started off badly. His alarm had failed to go off, making him late for work and causing him to miss breakfast. When he'd gotten to work, the donuts with the little candy sprinkles had already been eaten and the coffee was the last in the pot.

Grogg's suit was itchy and his tie was choking him. He'd broken three type-writers writing his reports for the last field actions. Which only meant that his debt was going to get bigger. After taxes and the various deductions to his salary that went to debt repayment, he just barely had enough get by and get the occasional extra.

Like his break time candy bar. Delicious nutty chocolaty goodness.

Only the machine was not cooperating.

"Stupid machine!" Grogg bellowed. "Grogg give machine monies! Why machine not give Grogg his num-num bar? Machine too good to give Grogg his num-num bar? Grogg hate stupid machine!"

Grogg reached out and grabbed the machine, giving it a good shake.

	There's a voice from up above him. "The sign says not shake the machine." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Grogg looked up. How did the little human do that? "Machine take Grogg's money, but it not give Grogg num-num bar," he complained, but he did let it go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Amiko jumped down from the ceiling. "Okay, fair play to Grogg for letting go. Unfortunately, the repair guys aren't available today. So now Grogg is going to let Miss Kobayashi negotiate with the machine safely, and Grogg is not going to tell anybody how Miss Kobayashi negotiated." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grogg's mood instantly improved. "Missy Kobayashi get Grogg num-num bar? Grogg's lips are sealed!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Machine took Grogg's money, right? We're only seeing justice done. What the job's all about." And Amiko will pull out some long, thin strips of metal and get to work..negotiating. Eventually, the candy is dislodged. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grogg's turtlely face broke into a grin and he clapped. "Missy Kobayashi get Grogg's num-num bar! Grogg love Missy Kobayashi!" There might be attempts at hugging. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Amiko will try to duck out of that hug and just pat Grogg's arm instead as she hands Grogg the candy bar. "Grogg is very sweet, but remember what the Human Resources people said about Human Squishiness." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grogg struggled with the memory for a second. "Hoo-mans are squishy and if Grogg hugs them, Grogg will make health insurance rates go up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-01-28 02:36 am UTC (link)
	"Exactly." Amiko smiles. "Very good, Grogg. So remember to be carefuly. And enjoy your bar." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Grogg popped the bar into his mouth, wrapper and all, and chewed happily, then swallowed. "Thank-you, Missy Kobayashi! And Grogg will remember about the squishing," and here again he struggled with the words, "because Grogg is a reee-form-ed cit-i-zen working for the com-mon good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Very good, Grogg! And you're welcome." (Reply to this)(Parent)
