Lucy has liked to pretend Peter Pan for about a year and a
half now, and she used to always be Tinkerbell, a silent observer who directed
me (Wendy) and her dad (Peter/Hook, depending) to act out the scenes. But now
she has carved this new hero role for herself, and she plays that she is a sea
creature, not a mermaid, but a sea creature that lives in the sea and rolls up
like an armadillo and eats flat pirates, which are flat because the crocodile
has eaten them first and pooped them out. She is a baby sea creature who cannot
talk, and her name is Sleeping Beauty.
Her superpower is that when she gets
really angry because someone is hurting her friends, she shoots something out
of her eyes that kills them. She saves Peter when things get desperate and no
one else can.
This is a girl who loves to dress up in beautiful princess dresses,
but given all the possible characteristics to assign her character, she chose
“looks like an armadillo” and “eats crocodile poop”.
