Monsters? Sheep? Do I smell an UNDERTALE reference?

And they’re leaving droppings EVERYWHERE!!

they are baa-thering me

A boa constrictor and a wild bore were under my bed when the light was turned off.

You know he’s just finding excuses to not go to bed, right?

His robe matches the green shirt he usually wears.

Don’t worry, the monsters will eat them all.

Maybe try thinking about Z’s

Aw she ignored his fear. Not nice, Grama.

Here’s a broom, start sweeping.

I remember when I was 4. I woke up because there were ‘lions and tigers’ under my bed! My mom had to get a broom and chase them into the closet! :-)

Grandma, the monsters are eating the sheep…

Scarecrow: Have you tried counting sheep?

Lion: Sheep terrify me.

-The Wizard of Oz (1939)

When I was 4 we saw Mary Poppins as a double feature with Labors of Hercules, about a sheepdog by that name. When we got home I kept falling asleep on my feet and seeing those gross sheep all over the house.
