The Facebook Marketplace can be a wonderful place. While surfing there some weeks ago, I came across a selection of Monster High dolls for sale, a huge collection! I found two I liked especially: A pretty cute little Draculaura and a Gil Webber. When I told the Monster girls I already had that Draculaura would be on her way, the squeals were deafening. However, I never got the chance to explain about Gil to Lagoona. To know that Draculaura was on her way back to them was enough. When Gil and Draculaura arrived, Gil took to hiding. He was a shy, sweet monster (Quite fitting for a river monster) who had been separated from "his" Lagoona, and was terrified of meeting another. My "resident" dolls did their best to make the new dolls feel welcome. Rosabella Beauty, the daughter of Belle and the Beast felt a kinship to Gil and decided to help him get his confidence back. Over the next few days, Apple, Raven, Darling, and Rosabella laid their plans, enlisting the help of the other monsters to surprise Lagoona. Gil wasn't sure that a surprise reveal was quite a good idea, but went along, thinking that girls must certainly know more about such matters than boys. Gil consulted some of the other toys, but got all kinds of answers. One of the Boy's action figures started reciting some sort of poem, and was shouted down by another telling him to cut it out. Li Shang, the husband of Princess Mulan was rather unsure on the subject. The Lego Knights, though generally helpful, were confusing. Gil read books and listened to music trying to understand what it was that girls liked. He scrolled the Girl's YouTube playlists and watched the videos he found there, thinking that so many of the guys were like him; just as lost and confused as he. The End
