Oh my goodness! My heart! Post more
Yes, i never really thought of that, but of course I haven't seen the movie yet. *Glares at mother* I suppose it's more of like fading away rather than dying...---------------------
Well, the cameos are a bit lost on me, though of course I loved all your Henson references...and I well recall being shocked at the newspaper article the morning I read that Henson had been sick with "just a cold" a few days and then suddenly died. For years afterward I was anxious whenever someone I loved came down with a cold, sorry to admit... Your scene is nicely done and emotional without being overwrought; good job! But...er..."dropped a frozen ham"?! I assume Brian would get the inference!
I've wondered about Muppets aging. The implication is that they DO eventually die; J P Grosse seems to have; and in the Muppets movie jr novel, Fozzie has a line in Reno about saving the pillows, "they were Ma's", which suggests Mrs Bear is no longer around. Whatever the case, they do age much more slowly than us non-felted folk, so I imagine they would indeed be put through the pain of losing friends and loved ones as the years progress. Nice that you decided to touch on that.
Keep it up!

What does that mean a Jackson?SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I am so glad that you guys liked this chapter! As for cameos: Brian and Lisa Henson, Alice as my human self, Locksy as Wiggie's human self, Jackson as muppetfan123( He sounds like a Jackson) and I think that's it. Lisa(Toga) Will be here soon, as will Ed, Newsie, aunty ru and muppetfan123 will get a speaking part as well. in the next chapter however, Robin will be making a sweet and thoughtful entrance.
I need to apologize, I thought I did do italics and quotes...Darned computer! AS for songs, I wanted to do a song that represented the bond of Uncle to Nephew... Yes, the second is an original from when I was younger. It's called Swamp Dreams. As for the part of Kermit visiting Robin alone, I didn't want Piggy to hog the spotlight..-----------------
Figgie, I like your use of songs...um...could you pretty please use quotes or italics or something else to separate them from the text/action? While I was able to follow along, my brain is a little fried today and it made me squint and backtrack... BUT. I do very much like your choices. I don't know the second one; is it original?
Kermit having to explain death to a froglet must indeed be hard, although Robin is a very bright lad. I really liked your line about the dead person having had "a beautiful gift, but the gift broke"... being "broke", like an overused toy, is a sweet metaphor. Nicely phrased.
Erk...uh...when you say you're putting me in, you don't mean ME, right? I certainly have no objections to my namesake popping in. Wherever news is, he'll be there!
Wait wait wait, this just hit me. (See: brainfried...) Er...why is Kermit visiting Robin alone? Is this leading up to the "you're gonna have a cousin" talk? How come Piggy not with? Fragile though Kermit mistakenly seems to be treating her as, that girl ain't gonna sit around being delicate no matter WHAT her condition! But I'll shush, and sit back and watch and see wha'happa...
Keep it up!
