Amlan and Esmerelda had become a special Catholic-American Bostonian-duo of newlyweds-magic writing for things of sports (NFL) superstitions writing for the holidays and wanted some Chinese-eatery complement magic to their work with world-hospitality reads of the grit-game of teamwork and helmeted offense/defense choreography storytelling and wanted a fortune-cookie premonition for what their Halloween-Thanksgiving-Xmas '25 year creativity would offer for social media culture flowers of pedestrian-life/randomness (Facebook-like) but didn't anticipate their trip to the New England mall would bring them a magical mutation-sensitive pet representing chance-fiction (Facebook-like!).

CHINESE RESTAURANT MANAGER: Here's your magic-gift for your NFL-writing.
AMLAN/ESMERELDA: A magical pet from a mysterious domain, friend?
CHINESE RESTAURANT MANAGER: It's called Gizmo and he's to be cared greatly!

AMLAN/ESMERELDA: That's holiday.

CHINESE RESTAURANT MANAGER: I've been working in this Boston-mall for ages.

AMLAN/ESMERELDA: Any rules for taking (good) care of this magical Gizmo, pal?

CHINESE RESTAURANT MANAGER: Never feed the Gizmo post-midnight, you two!

AMLAN/ESMERELDA: That's a shopping complex word digestible for football!

CHINESE RESTAURANT MANAGER: Good luck, and Happy Holidays shopping, ok.

AMLAN/ESMERELDA: Farewell, sage (Facebook-like).

The dark-truth was that Amlan and Esmerelda, idealistic and optimistic Boston-town newlyweds afforded a magical-muse pet that holidays-'25 season in the American Homeland, the Gizmo, didn't heed the omen-word of the Chinese-eatery manager/sage who gifted them their creative writing pet and fed the creature-pet of great music some fried chicken post-midnight, and it multiplied the animal into 2-separate 'beings' and frightened Amlan/Esmerelda, since one of the 'beings' revealed itself as a malicious hideous clawed weapons-loving troll called the Stripe (wow). Now, Amlan and Esmerelda were part of a holidays-'25 misadventure for records/marks (for Hell!).

AMLAN: Well, Stripe fled from our Boston-apartment and back to the mall, love!

ESMERELDA: What's this weapon-trick you've thought will restore our sanity now?

AMLAN: It's a homemade garage liquid-nitrogen gun I made from a water-gun.

ESMERELDA: We're to chase 'Stripe' with this 'ice-gun' into mall-halls for luck.

AMLAN: That's the truth, Esmerelda...for if we fail, that Chinese-sage is right.

ESMERELDA: We ought nought to have fed the Gizmo-original post-midnight, hon.

AMLAN: Well, we did, wife...and now this ice-trick's all we have to save Earth.

ESMERELDA: Facebook-like (for Heaven/Hell).
