"Sounds like it was a good time," Otis remarked as he drunk up his cup of coffee.

"Yeah, well I remember they had another staring contest," Top Cat stated as he flexed his muscles. "And it didn't go exactly as Quick Draw here put it."

Everyone gasped as they turned to the top cat, with Quick Draw McGraw eying him as the yellow cat with the top hat began explaining his side of the staring contest.

One flash to the future present of the past later...

Once again, Mario and King Harkinian were both at Mario's house as they were once again having a staring contest years after their original staring contest, with Mario on the opposite side of the match as he squinted his eyes, feeling the tears coming as Harkinian smirked, his arms folded, both of them being outside as Top Cat was by the garbage bins collecting some food for himself. Toadette and Dry Bowser were both painting the rooftop of Mario's house green as it got bird poop all over it, of which they obviously cleaned off first, of course.

"You know, DB, I like that we both have an appearance in this story," Toadette stated to Dry Bowser, holding her hands together.

Dry Bowser rolled his beady yellow eyes as he kept on painting the rooftop. "Just shush and enjoy your cameo, kid."

Toadette giggled as she shrugged, going back to painting. Back inside, Harkinian was making Mario his boi as the king of Hyrule was having the edge over the fat, red and blue clad Italian plumber.

"Mah boi, I have trained myself to be pertained to blink." Harkinian boasted as he chuckled. "You might as well give up now."

Mario growled as he then blinked, slamming his fists on the wooden table as he shook his head. "Toast! And I was so toastin' close, too!" He then took out a tiny green seed and chucked it under the wooden floorboard, with the entire house shaking as a huge green beanpole emerged, with Mario climbing it up in frustration.

"Wow," Top Cat commented in surprise as his eyes widened. "He didn't take that well."

"I know." Pig interrupted as he popped out of a nearby garbage can, burping as he was eating through it as well.

Harkinian shrugged as he proceeded to eat everything in Mario's house, because he was the king, and he does what he wants, for dinner.
