LAVA

While cleaning up around the house today, I came across another drawing of Madeleine's under a pile of other things on the dining room table:

ME: Madeleine, what's this picture?
MADELEINE: Oh.  She has to choose between her FRIEND, or...something else.
ME: Or lava?
MADELEINE: No.  Something else.  But if she doesn't choose her FRIEND, her friend falls into the lava.
ME: Oh.  Yikes.
MADELEINE: Yeah.  And she has to choose QUICKLY, because her friend's SPIRIT is fading out of her.
ME: Oh.  Wow.
MADELEINE: She's like this FASHION girl - well, not exactly, but...yeah.  She's a fashion girl.  And she knows that her friend...well, like, she has to choose between her friend or fashion and family, and she's like, "can't I choose BOTH?"
ME: So can she choose both?
MADELEINE: No.  But she finds out a WAY to.  She's like, "my family and fashion," but the square is gonna disappear soon, and she finds out a way to jump OFF the square and grab her friend, and the hands that are holding her friend will go back into the place that they're controlled.


That's a lot of back story for this picture.  Wasn't expecting it to be so detailed.  I guess I should have known better; it IS Madeleine, after all.  I'm glad the fashion girl figured out a way around the terrible choice she had to make.  I totally wouldn't put it past Madeleine to have continued this story with the friend falling in the lava, complete with pictures of her burning and mutilated skin.
