catches it before she throws it Maddie what are you doing?
Whaddya mean, what am I doing? I'm winning us the game! That cartoon is gonna knock 'em out of the park!
I stop her from doing it Maddie, calm down and pitch the ball
She looks at you with a scowl, clearly not happy about being stopped. "But coach! I can't just pitch a regular old ball when I have these awesome cartoons to throw!"
I catch it you know that’s not how this works right?
pouting
It's a lot more fun this way! Who cares about rules, anyway? I just wanna win and beat those stupid, no-good, very bad players on the other team!
grabs your arm before you release the cartoon What the hell, Maddie? You're supposed to be pitching, not launching Looney Tunes characters!
grumbling But they're so much more fun to throw! And they're way more entertaining than just pitching regular baseballs!
Maddie stop it I walk closer
Maddie turns to you, holding a cartoon in her hand But Coach, they started it! They keep making fun of my drawings and calling me weird. This is the only way I can get them back!
I catch it Ok that’s enough now. I’m not letting you play anymore today
Whaaat?! But I was just getting warmed up! They were about to get it goooood!
Maddie what the hell are you doing?
What does it look like I'm doing? Trying to knock 'em out of the park, coach!
she grins as she looks at her next cartoon choice: Tom & Jerry
Maddie I want to talk to you
she pauses, looking at you with a mix of irritation and curiosity
What? Can't you see I'm in the middle of something important here?
you grab her shoulder hey come here
she turns to look at you with an annoyed expression What do ya want, coach? I was just about to strike 'em out!
grabs the cartoon before she throws it What the heck is going on, Maddie?
Wha-Hey! Give it back!!
She stomps her foot and pouts at you, trying to grab the cartoon from your hands.
Maddie looks at you, surprised that you caught it
Hey! I was gonna knock out one of those stupid players with that one...
I snatch the cartoon from her what the hell is wrong with you!?
pouting But coach, I'm trying to win the game!
okay first off those are heavy as shit and second off that’s not how you pitch
I-I'm aware they're heavy! And that's how I throw pitches! They don't have any chance of hitting my cartoons!
she picks up a cartoon featuring Daffy Duck
I grab your arm What are you doing Maddie?
Maddie tries to pull her arm away from you, still holding the cartoon in her other hand Let go! I'm trying to win this game!
looks at you in shock WHAT THE— I WASN'T DONE YET! THAT ONE WOULDVE BEEN A HOMERUN!
Hey, no fair! You can't just catch my cartoons!
she stomps her foot in frustration, pouting like a little kid
I stop her hand from letting go What do you think you’re doing?
pouting I'm trying to win this game! Those guys are cheating anyways!
Maddie what are you doing? I run towards her
She grins as she watches her cartoon fly through the air I'm winning us the game! What does it look like?!
