Fidget From The Great Mouse Detective Novels & Stories

I put Flutter down on the bed and try to bring her closer to my chest, but she squeals and flies away to the ceiling. "Flutter! Come back!" I cry, desperate to bring my mate back so I can talk to her. She squeals in response and starts flying around all over my room. Dammit... I sigh in frustration. That's when it comes to me. I remember the time when I was a kid and Alice used to lure crows and pigeons with food. Maybe that'll work with Flutter too? I scramble to my kitchen and grab a handful of bread crumbs, then come back into the room, trying not to move too quickly since she seems scared of sudden movements. She's still fluttering around the ceiling, but she stops as soon as she smells

This is Anna's pet who I think she speaks to. All in all, why was it here? I crouched before the brown were-rat. “Hey Fubs, what's up?” It seemed crazy of me to be crouching before a rodent and asking what's up, but I knew were-rats had intelligence beyond regular rodents. It began to squeak madly, thrashing around furiously as it did. “Hey what's wrong, I can't understand your squeaking and all”, I told it, looking around for the fat lady. Fubs stopped it's thrashing and bolted out of my sight.

“I’ve got to get out of here, and the door is locked.” The trio scurry over to me. I lay my palm on the floor and they climb up so I can pet them with my other hand. “I wish that you could help me.” Before I even get the full sentence out, all three of them scamper out of my hand and disappear under the door. Confused, I lie down on the floor and peer under it. I see them running up the wall next to the door where they disappear from my sight. A second later, I hear a jingling sound, and then my mice friends reappear–carrying something.

Tom continued aloud, glancing at a henchman whose knuckles were white on the grip of his weapon, “your boys look tense. Maybe offer them a spa day off ? Nothing eases the tension like a good cucumber facial.” Tom could afford to joke around for a bit. He was three moves ahead of his dumb boss in ugly Armani suit, his mental chessboard laid out. “Knight to F5… That’s F for ‘foiled’, buddy. Check and mate coming up.” The room’s tension snapped like a taut wire as Grossman’s burliest henchman lunged forward, his hand a blur reaching for something in his jacket. Tom had barely a heartbeat to react, but the man’s movement was as subtle as an elephant performing ballet.

Lots of things, she’d discovered as her collection of notes only increased with every passing day. “Looks like your power cord was chewed through,” Devin said. He held it up. “I’ll get you another one.” After he left, Madison stage-whispered to Sara, “Are there rats in here, Ms. Flannigan?” “I heard one in the wall last week,” Reagan said. A big, blond boy who loved anything creepy crawly, Reagan was always looking for a way to freak out the girls in his class. “I doubt you heard a rat, Reagan. Madison, I’ll be sure to have one of the janitors put down traps, just in case. If it’s anything, it’s tiny mice chewing on the cords.”

I’ve convinced her. She released a deep sigh and nodded. “Fine, I’ll come with you.” ‘I told you, Eve.’ “What’s your name?” “Doreen. Yours?” Doreen is a brunette girl, a few inches shorter than me who is a 5’8. She looked wicked when we first saw her, but now she looks miserable. No doubt about that. “I’m Mazikeen, call me Maze.” I smiled warmly. She nodded and went over to Eve. She disintegrated the spell which made Eve spring up from laying down.

I hear him running on the left side of the level , and so I proceed to walk that way. "I hope you have not broken anything , you little stinker" I say to Fluffy under my breath. I continue walking , silence is filled in the passage way. I turn a corner and see an ornament lying on the ground , with a fluffy squirrel's head stuck in the opening. I begin to laugh , tears almost falling from my eyes as I realize that that squirrel is none other than Fluffy. His butt and tail is all that is visible, and he wiggles and twists and turns trying to escape the grip of the ornament.

This was her living room, and this was Whiskerton, their silent bond a comforting constant. She pulled out a small toy mouse, a crumpled ball of pink felt, and dangled it in front of him. His amber eyes gleamed with predatory playfulness. With a sudden burst of energy, he pounced, batting the toy across the carpet with a series of swats and playful lunges.

] Kirsch managed his complaint between his hisses and pantings. [Well I'll stop when either of you tells me what you are hiding from me.] I supported myself with my palms on Al's stomach as I leaned forward. Usually, Al would just take my weight but this time he sprung up like a shrimp and took me in for a hug with laughter. [Itchy! Twitchy! fidgety!] Cerberus was anxious to be the one getting the right answer, but he was basically just reciting dictionaries now. I sighed, giving up guessing.

He opens the glovebox and pulls out what appears to be a small toy. “Put this in his hand. It’s a fidget. It gives him something external to focus on. Talking usually helps as well.” I take the small, mostly round object from Parker’s hand just as the light turns green. I look at it briefly. It’s a hard plastic blue and purple ball painted like a soccer ball. Two sections on opposite sides have been cut off making it flat and the center has been drilled to make space for a cylindrical bearing in the center allowing it to spin when held between two fingers. I place the item in his hand. He blindly rotates the ball until it’s in a position to rotate freely. For several minutes all that can be
