Him. Toddles was a him.
Hmph.
Tate crouched beside Hollingberry. "Come out and play, Toddles. Will you show me your new toy?"
He was talking to Toddles now? How did he find him in his awesome, really good hiding spot? Did grown up humansies know about hiding under tables? That didn't make sense.
Did Toddles go out and talk to the Head man or not? He was afraid that he would yell at him for going in his office. That would make him sad. The studensies may save him though if things got bad.
Sticking his head ever so slightly out from underneath the table, just so his eyes and ears were visible he squeaked.
"Mister won't hurt Toddles or the Shiney?" The baby elf came all the way out and sat on the table close to the red "P' girl who liked him. She might save Toddles if the man tried to hurt him.
The whole time the orb created a huge lump on the front chest part of Toddles' pillowcase-like tunic.
