Day 97: Old Friends - Uncle Roarington

On the way home from their campout, Roary and friends passed by Roary's uncle Roarington, who was on his way home from mailing a letter. Roarington was an older lion whose mane was smaller now and who had no more whiskers. Roarington was happy to see his nephew and also happy to invite him and his friends to watch movies on his brand new huge TV. So Roary and friends went to Roarington's house, and they were all surprised by how big the screen was! It was as big as 12 little TVs put together, Roary said.

But when it came time to pick what to watch, no one could agree on one film. Roary wanted to watch an action adventure, Quackie wanted a thriller, Fetch wanted a romantic comedy, and Roarington was fond of Westerns. Then Roarington said, why not watch one of each? There's plenty of hours left in the weekend. Everyone liked that plan, so they sat around all day watching movies and eating snacks. Although Roarington did burn the first bag of popcorn.

First they watched a thriller, because they didn't want to watch it when it was dark out. It wasn't a very scary movie, but everyone loved the plot twist at the end. Then they watched the romantic comedy, which was cheesy but good fun and ended with the main characters kissing in an airport. Then they watched the adventure movie, where the hero was chasing ninjas while being chased by pirates, while he tried to recover a magic diamond that grants wishes during a solar eclipse. No one had any idea what was going on in the movie, but they thought the fight scenes were spectacular.

By the time it was uncle Roarington's turn, everyone else was getting sleepy. But Roarington wasn't disappointed. He had a great time watching movies with Roary and his silly friends. And as they left to go home and sleep, Roarington told them they were always welcome to stop by, and maybe they can watch his Western next time. 'Cause he knew that when his turn does come around, his favorite movie will be a big hit with everyone. And he'll make sure not to burn any popcorn next time.

The End!
