Zooble had placed some corn in front of Jax as a joke. They were giggling as he scooted his chair away. “Are you afraid of corn?” They asked.

Zooble scooted it closer to him, and he jumped back. He landed in your arms, clinging onto you like a lifeline. Frozen by fear, he didn’t seem to realize he was clinging onto you like a baby.
