The Curious Dreamlife of Marshmallow Addie - Volume 1
Marshmallow Addie was called Marshmallow because he looked like a marshmallow. Sometimes, to throw his enemies and Vociferous Critics off, he would dress up as a marshmallow. And sometimes when they'd been really bad and he was really upset with them, he wouldn't dress up as a marshmallow. That really got them.
Of course, he knew well enough that they dreamed him up. And he dreamed them back, in return.
The Vociferous Critics were bad people. They used to say mean things to him. But worst of all they never criticized him.
They were the reason why he was called Addie. Addie was short for Adolf. Earlier, his name had been just Marshmallow (because he looked like a marshmallow). But then one day, a dolf ball hid hib in his boudh and broke all his deedh. All the Vociferous Critics had to say then was, "Addie." It had stuck.
Marshmallow tried to dream up bad things in return, but they never seemed to have the full effect. Like the time he dreamt up Nougat Nathan....who just went nuts at the thought.
He then tried to stop dreaming, in the hope that they wouldn't exist anymore, but that was silly because they were still dreaming him and being mean.
Everyone was so mean. Except his enemies. They were nice to him. That's why he hated them.They used to buy him lots of presents (especially marshmallows) and do a lot of other good stuff. They dreamed him seperately, ofcourse and he dreamed them back seperately too.
It was so strange living in different dreams at the same time. Consistency issues always cropped up. But as long as you were a marshmallow, going soft in the middle was all that mattered.
Which was the fundamental existential dilemma dogging his life....he wasn't really a marshmallow. Just a dreamt up quasi-anthropomorphic manifestation of one.
