Recently, I allowed my sister to use my laptop in order to watch an episode of an anime that she likes while I was away. When I got back, she had her eyes glued to the screen with the weirdest expression on her face that immediately alerted me to the fact that something was wrong. Well, I needed my laptop back, so I asked her nicely if I could take it back. She literally hissed at me and hugged the laptop protectively while muttering something about ladybugs and black French cats. I was like okay, the show you were watching doesn't have cats in it, and it DEFINITELY doesn't have ladybugs in it. Either I was going crazy, or she just switched what she was watching. It didn't dawn on me what in the world she was talking about until I went back to my room to put my stuff up. She was talking about the latest French animated sensation, Miraculous Ladybug. It's the first 3D animated superhero show created in France and translated into English. It was the exact same show she was watching when I came home from the movies on Friday night. The fact that this show caused her to become so engrossed in it to where she would dare refuse to relinquish ownership of a laptop back to me and hiss like some deranged lunatic scares me. A lot. The show itself didn't look bad a year ago when I first discovered it and even looked interesting enough to watch if I hadn't forgotten about it, but after seeing what it did to Delaney, I can't help but wonder if it is some mind-controlling device that is creating some sort of child-based army. If it is, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS FIRST?! Not only could I create an alluring show that could control my younger siblings, but I could gain access to the minds of millions of small children and use them to take down my enemies because who isn't terrified of a huge wave of tiny, obnoxious children running straight at them?! But, since I have yet to possess the means to create such a mind-controlling animated show, I am instead terrified for my life. What happens if the creator of this Ladybug thing has a grudge with me for some reason? They could use the child army against me and DESTROY ME, and I could do nothing in retaliation because I don't have an army. Of anything. Not even bananas, one of the most evil and vicious fruits on Earth. I would have to sit there and watch myself being destroyed which would be not fun at all. It's only fun when other people get destroyed. All I can do of now is sit and bide my time, thinking of a miracle plan that might be able to save me the day the huge, destructive army decides to rear its ugly head. I'll just keep watching my sister get brainwashed by this show. I guess I could try to take the laptop away permanently, but I value my life and would like to live as long as possible. Since my sister would violently tear me to pieces if I so much as came near the stupid thing, my chances of survival are greater if I just wait for the army, so I'll keep praying for my life and avoiding the monster that is now my sister...
