Being the Meanie again
Told Little Fayoumis that he may watch a movie today, but not right now, and not a Pokémon movie.
Disappointment.
But he's been far too focused on that damn show lately, and relating absolutely everything to it. Yes, this is an early mark of fandom; however, it's also hampering his ability to communicate with the rest of the world.
Also informed him that his getting scared when Chef "ranged" (not range+d, but rang+ed) was due to him focusing too hard on the game, and that he would need to learn to focus some on the game, and some on the rest of the stuff happening around him. Then, he wouldn't be scared when Chef rang, and he would be able to listen to his body telling him he had to go potty.
He agreed with that, more or less.

In this case, it's mostly "hampering ability to communicate" in the sense that he drags it into everything, which frustrates his other parents more than it frustrates me. And if you're talking about something, he'll try and relate it to how things are in Pokemon, which majorly irritates other members of the household.
I do appreciate your thoughtfulness, though!
