AMLAN: I shot the troll ('Stripe') in the feet while it bathed in the mall-fountain!

EZZY: I saw, just long-enough with quick-accuracy to make it dizzy in-water, hon.

AMLAN: You locked the cage-latch after I grabbed Stripe and put him in the cage!

EZZY: That was a mall tale worth its weight in Xmas-tales for Buffalo-NY town IQ.

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

SAGE: Thanks for returning Gizmo and this 'Stripe' troll to me, Americans.

AMLAN/EZZY: We tried our best to reverse the darkness that was released, sir.

SAGE: I warned you earnestly to watch any feeding-habits borderlines, friends!

AMLAN/EZZY: We do apologize for that error of choice, and we were drunk, ok.

SAGE: However, Stripe was unharmed and caged and returned (with Gizmo), ok.

AMLAN/EZZY: This has become a Buffalo-Xmas mall story worth a knucklebones.

SAGE: Enjoy the rest of your holidays-'25, you two (Facebook-like)...farewell.

Ezzy, a comic book writer, decided to adapt the entire Xmas-NY misadventure in the Buffalo-town shopping complex post-Xmas that would catch all the (dark?) magic of the pet-care omens, acid-gun chase, mall-fountain ingenuity, and cage-miracle for pet-return to the sage (ok!). Amlan promised his newlywed-wife honey that this entire ordeal would never be forgotten and that they'd learn the wise-choice corrections for things of Earthling know-of-good (ok).

When New Year 2026 Day came, Amlan made his darling-wife a special diner-plate of soft/zesty (Indian) luchi-bread, remembering how the newlyweds (once) tried to appease 'Stripe' the evil troll to control the darkness released after feeding adorable 'Gizmo' post-12AM (ok). Amlan and Ezzy had (therefore) caught some memory-magic of things learned and things thought in-relief...thanks to Amlan's home-made acid-gun and Ezzy's quick cage-action work in that NY-mall (for doubt!). At least, the newlyweds thought, Xmas would be considered...a Buffalo (onside) knight-leaf.
