My Welcome home oc shenanigans!!

Worried Caterpillar dad

Ok so context-
Martly comes from a large family that doesn't really pay attention to them a lot because of this they do dangerous things and haven't really had someone to tell them not to do so dangerous stuff. Until the other neighbors (Specifically Howdy) find them doing such things. Howdys really just worried and confused help him-

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Just a smidge of glitter there! Cut right there! And finally some goggly eyes!" Martly excitedly cut and glued on multiple things to a few pieces of paper

It seemed like they were making a few pictures. On closer inspection it was of the Neighbors in the Neighborhood! How sweet of them!

They quickly signed the page with their messy hand writing and folded them, afterwards gently placing them into the envelopes on the side

It was sweet until they got up with the letters and what appeared to be a large pair of scissors, ones that you would probably find on top of a fridge so kids couldn't get to them

Soooooo why did Martly have them? We all know how forgetful their parents are! Now come on Martly! You know better than running with scissors!

Martly hurriedly ran from their house in the woods towards the neighborhood, scissors and letters still in hand.

They raced past Barnabys house and was passing by Howdys Bugdega to get to the post office when they heard a shouting coming from the shop

"Martly! Martly! What are you doing?!" Howdy hurriedly ran towards Martly with his hands up to them

"Hello Howdy! I'm getting some letters to Eddie! What's wrong?" They asked as they began to run up to meet with Howdy

They stopped when they noticed Howdys frightened face and heard "DON'T RUN WITH THOSE!" They froze and looked confusingly at Howdy rushing up to them

He quickly got to them and put two hands on his hips while the other two went to his head "How did you get those!?" Martly just looked up at him confused

"What do you mean Howdy? I made them!" They held up the letters to him proudly

"Not those Martly! The scisso-" Howdy took a moment to take a deep breath before continuing "First those are lovely, second I meant the adult scissors you have Sweetpea" he calmly said

Martly beamed at the compliment and then shuffled to get the scissors in clear view of Howdy

"Mrs.Motheian gave me them!" Howdy grimaced a bit at that, not only at the fact that Martly had been given the scissors by their mother but also because of the way they called her by Mrs.Motheian it was confusing to Howdy... that could wait for now though

"Well those are very dangerous, especially when you run with them! So why don't you give me them Sweetpea?" Howdy held out his hand for them to give it him "Okie dokie!" They hurriedly gave him the scissors "Carefully now-!"

He worriedly took the scissors and put them in his front pocket of his apron "Now! Why don't I go with you too deliver the letters!" Howdy asked hurriedly

"What about the shop?" Martly asked curiously "Barnaby will make sure no one steals anything! Now cmon!" Howdy picked them up and put them on his shoulders

They laughed as they quickly held onto Howdys head as he moved towards the Post Office...

Little did Martly know that the reason Howdy went with them was to make sure they didn't hurt themselves-
