Ah yes, Cups.　Mr. Balloons had let him out of his box earlier in the day. It was Cups' fault that he had misplaced his GLORIOUS silver pump to blow up his balloons.　Sure, he could do things the magical way, but there was just something about using the muggle device that made the experience MUCH more joyful!

"Hide? We is not playin' hide and seek. Ya' know? Unless ya' kin dig some uh dese lovely children t'join us dat is!" Now wouldn't that be fun? A giant game of hide and go seek?!

Mr. Balloons gave the man in his arms another tight squeeze. "No," he said calmly as he snuggled him some more. Love...joy...FRIEEEENDSHIP!

Then, he was struck with an idea.

"HARK! Would ya' likes t'play wid us?"

He was talking about hide and go seek of course.
