Default Pebbles is a very odd turtle...
Jimbo will set his turtle loose on you. { The Farley } "That's trademarked, don't use it."

Maybe he was working on it? Well, it seemed like it was. She just smiled knowingly at him, then looked back to the butterflies that were nearest to her.

As Jimbo started to explain the obvious, Iris grinned. What was she supposed to say to that? "You're point? THAT much is really bad for you." Seriously. Jimbo was going to lose his TEETH, eating that much sugar. he could at least get a load of fruit and turn it into candy. That way it would be better for him.

"... Oh. Um, but... are you sure?" Iris looked at Pebbles cautiously. WHAT IF HE DIED ON HER?! That would be reeeeeally bad. But no. She wouldn't think about What If's... they usually lead to bad things. And bad things were well... bad. "You... embraced Pebbles' eating habbits?" Hehe. That made sense. It was Jimbo. Having a turtle that loved candy as much as him probably came across as a Godsend to Jimbo. She rolled her eyes and grinned at Jimbo. What Iris wanted to know is why Pebbles completely did not care about these butterflies. There was one fluttering RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM! Silly turtle.

Then she looked to the door, and saw that the blinds were still closed. "Can we... um... open the blinds again, now?" Y'know... now that she had her normal hair back and all.
Jimbo frowned at Monty. Was she criticizing him about how much candy he eats? "Monty..." He shook his head, not even bothering to argue with her. Like with Teegan, if she didn't get it, there was no point trying. Because it's CANDY. And JIMBO. TOGETHER. "You know, I'm not going to eat all of it now." He admitted. He never really planned to eat all of it. "This is how much I get all the time, and I always share it with you. Plus I take some home because my parents get a bit mad when I ask them for so much candy so I have to have my own stash."

Jimbo was finishing up a second chocolate frog. He ate his candy quite quickly. "Yeah. Pebbles is...really weird. He'll be fine though. Just um...don't shake him too much. Whenever he eats a lot of candy I just leave him alone and wait for it to get through his system. I'm worried if he's moved around to much he'll get sick. But mostly, he's fine." Jimbo frowned at the turtle for a bit and looked at the empty wrappings that had come out of his pocket when Pebbles fell out. "You know, I actually save a lot of money with him. Who wouldn't want a pet that eats anything you give it?" As long as said pet doesn't get sick. "Er...don't give him any more candy." He added.

Oh. Right. The blinds. You know, weirdly enough, he didn't want them open again. He liked the privacy he was getting with Monty while the blinds were closed. And if they were open, people might see them and want to come in. And he didn't want anyone to come in. "Right. Yeah." he said to Monty. He fumbled around for his wand beneath all the candy, taking his SWEET time and then opened the blinds with a flick. He was tempted to lock the door but he didn't do it. Monty would notice and he'd get a lot of awkward questions.

Every time someone passed by he gave a nervous glance towards the door. Darned people. Don't come in.

And the butterflies! They were getting in his face! Flinch, flinch, flinch.
One flew right at him as if it was BLIND and got him in the eye.
"ARGH!" Run! Scream! Hide! He dropped all his candy and jumped up from his seat. "Don't touch me! Leave me ALOOONEE!"
