1. The Mouse & The Bear
The Mouse & The Bear follows a very unique story about two best friends named Emma and Oscuro. Emma is a Lil' Kinz White Mouse and Oscuro is a Lil' Kinz Black Bear. Their colors are opposites, their species are opposites: almost everything about them is different, yet they make the best couple of friends. Somehow...
The Mouse & The Bear is a unique type of MMWF thread. It's a blog of sorts, but in it's own special way. Each entry or update or whatever you like to call it is actually called a chapter (like Emma and Oscuro are writing a book about their lives). New chapters are written every day or so. Some are planned, some are unplanned. The ones that are planned can be seen at #8 on the Table of Contents (TOC), which is the list of chapters, with their release date next to each one. When a new chapter comes out, it can also be found at #8 on the TOC.
In addition, there are lots of events that happen at The Mouse & The Bear, like holiday parties and such. Events can be found at #7 on the TOC, which is the Event Calender.
Enjoy the blog!
2. Emma Jessamine
Emma Jessamine is a curious, smart, artistic Lil’ Kinz Mouse (or just a mouse). She was adopted on October 13, 2009 along with her brother, Oscuro, and her birthday is January 19th. Her middle name, Jessamine, comes from “Jasmine”, which is the name of Carly’s favorite pet rat. Emma’s nicknames are Emma and Em, and sometimes, Carly calls her “Ems”. Her favorite food is pizza and she loves music. She’s always wanted a toy guitar, and she’s learning how to play the real guitar in real life! When Emma grows up, she says she wants to be a musician. Her long lost friend is a green shimmer snake, and she absolutely loves traveling.
3. Oscuro Echo
Oscuro Echo is a creative, unique, and smart Lil’ Kinz Black Bear. He was adopted on October 13, 2009 along with his sister, Emma. Oscuro’s name means “dark” in Italian (and Spanish). His birthday is May 26th, and he loves shopping. His favorite food is cupcakes, which he loves to make all by himself. He’s also great at basketball. When he grows up, Oscuro says he wants to be a painter. He also says that he has always wanted to become best friends with a camel. Oscuro majors in painting and agility at the Kinzville Academy, and he loves playing in the Tournament Arena in Webkinz World.
4. The House
Emma's Room
Emma has recently redecorated for this year's Halloween 2009. She's very excited for the spooky holiday, and therefore, she has been working hard at the arcade--and especially at Quizzy's--raising kinzcash to buy this limited edition Halloween furniture.

Oscuro's Room
Oscuro isn't very into Halloween. He's easily scared, and doesn't like the spooky room theme. He'd rather go to sleep without the worry that monsters might crawl up from underneath the floorboards, so instead of redecorating, Oscuro has kept his original country-themed room.

10. Questions & Answers
What does (insert word/acronym here) mean?
Check the dictionary, #9 on the table of contents. If you can’t find what you’re looking for there, just VM or PM me and I’ll let you know.
Why aren’t Emma and Oscuro updating? I’ve waited two days!
Emma and Oscuro are not always available every one or two days to write a chapter. If you come to The Mouse & The Bear for funny, cute, and amazing chapters, just be patient and Emma and Oscuro will grant your wishes as soon as possible.
How old are Emma and Oscuro?
Emma was adopted on October 13, 2009, and her first birthday is going to be January 19, 2010. Oscuro was adopted on the same date as Emma, and his first birthday is going to be May 26, 2010. You can do the math, because I’d rather not keep updating this question. 
How do I know who's telling the story in a chapter?
The narrator of each chapter is always Carly. There is usually also a color code at the beginning of the chapter that helps you figure out who's talking, rather than finding out at the end of the sentence. Emma normally writes in this, Oscuro normally writes in this, and Carly always writes in this.
