FanFic - Love is Neverending

[The Count]

Actually, I can field this one Martin. Jerome Christian was indeed revealed to be the full/real name of the character of "Doc" from Fraggle Rock. However, since "Doc" is what we most know him as, when I asked about it, it was replied and I agreed that he should stay on the Muppet Listings as Doc.

Rully nice chapter Sara... Couple o'things.
Shouldn't it be George the Janitor and Mildred, since they were dance partners in At the Dance?
And Uncle Deadly playing the organ, I applaud you for that... But the reasoning as to why he was there...
"Out of the goodness of his heart, or because his wife prodded him..."
Does that mean... This is meant to connect with... Well, if so, great and if not, then sokay.
Love the story, hope for more soon.

Thanks for the answer Ed. That's very interesting to know

Well I always thought this story could possibly tie in in the sense of a sequel taking place later on.
But not directly tie in with Sadie's Stories the saga. I really think the plot with Eli Takashi has alreadt been stretched out as far as it possibly can.
But this has been a lovely light romantic thrill Sara. Well done

It's not done yet guys! Also that was meant as an indirect nod to Eleanor. I pretty much have considered her his wife anyways. XD She's got quite a hold over the old ghoul. A few dreadfully sweet words, and he'll do what she'd like him to do. Most times. XD That's how he got riened into playing the organ. Plus I couldn't really see anyone else playing the organ, except Rowlf perhaps, but I just got a kick out of thinking Deadly was there playing the organ, while a huge scowl was pasted on his face.

 

[The Count]

Yeah... And it makes for boo-tiful imagery Sara. Plus how you worded it... Heh, you're starting to learn... Reemed into playing the organ... Coulda asked my roomie, but it's OK the way you did it.
Intrigued though... Why Countess Von Backwards?

 

[MartyMuppets]

I really figured there must be at least one more chapter to come Sara since you did not actually end it as such yet. But I speak for us all when I say we are eagerly anticipating dessert after our sumptious feast of romance. And please make it a sweet dessert Sara XD

 

[ReneeLouvier]

I believe that's the Count's current girlfriend. Countness Von Dahling was the first, then it was Countness Von Backwards. But...I'm not totally sure.

 

[The Count]

Yeah... The two Countesses were kind of interchanged for a brief period... But Dahling van Dahling is the one that's token as the main Countess. That's the one with the blonde hair and numbered necklace with numbers 1 to 10 in ascending order from right to left shoulders. Von Backwards has brownish hair and her necklace has the numbers 10 to 0 in descending order from right to left shoulders. At least, that's what I remember from when I still had good sight.
Look forward to whatever's left for this story, hope it gets posted soon.

Chapter Thirteen

Early Springtime - 2004

"I still can't believe you could make such a great cup of tea, sweetheart!" Emily cooed, towards her friend; as the softly rotund woman made her way back to the table.

"I still can't believe they stayed, Emily!" Doc chuckled to himself, as he sat down, with a cup of coffee in his hands. Sprocket laid his head gently in Doc's lap, and his master responded with a soft rub on his head. Sprocket sighed happily, then settled down beneath the table, like he always did around this time of the day.

The bees were buzzing outside, and the lawn was a beautiful as ever in the shimmering spring morning. A truck came rumbling up to the house, as it did everyday, with the mail.

"Hey there, you're the gardener right?" The mail carrier asked the youngish man, who was outside trimming the hedges, in shorts and a tshirt.

The youngish man, who was Scooter; looked up and frowned softly. He took off his visor and wiped his forehead. "Yeah, I'm the gardener." He said, with a soft smirk playing across his face.

"Here's the Christian's mail." He shoved a pile of mail into Scooter's hand, then shoved a small box as well. "It's an old christmas gift, somehow got lost in the mailroom. Hope Mrs. Christian enjoys it...whatever it is."

The mailman mumbled something else, as he walked back towards his truck; and started the engine. As the truck was rumbling down the road, farther and farther away, Scooter made his way into the house, carrying the mail and the small package.

"Mail's here, Emily!" Scooter called out, as he came into the kitchen, and set it down on the table. He turned to leave, and Doc tapped his shoulder.

"Quit messing with that lawn, Scooter. Sit down and relax some, you've been working yourself to death over that piece of grass and dirt. It'll blossom on it's own." He chided gently, pouring Scooter a cup of tea, and motioning him to sit down.

Scooter sat down, and started to drink the tea. He watched the other woman sort through the mail quickly.

"We've got the electric bill, heating and cooling, the water bill...ooh, some credit card offers."

"We'll shred those, dear." Emily responded, smiling.

"Right, shredding they will do." She picked up another letter in her hands, and glanced at the address. "Hey! It's from the guys at the theatre."

"Probably wondering where I went too." Scooter retorted, laughing softly.

"Yeah, after Jerry died, I guess the're wondering what happened to both of us then." She opened the letter, and smiled brightly. "Hey, they want you to come and do a bit part in the new movie their doing."

"What's the movie?" He asked, looking a little more interested now.

"It's some Wizard of Oz thing. Kerm's not saying what you'd be, but he's really wanting you to come down and do it."

"I...guess so. Haven't been around them in so long." He said, looking down for a moment. "I mean, Fozzie knows were up here, Sara. But they've not talked to me in awhile."

"Go on, Scooter. What could be the harm in it?" Emily prodded gently, smiling brightly. "We'll all come down, and check it out."

"That's a wonderful idea, Emily!" Jerome said, getting quite interested. "What about you Sprocket? Doesn't that sound really nice? Getting to meet all of our friends again?"

Sprocket barked in approval, and Sara smiled brightly. "The woofs have it, Scoot. We're going to the theatre, and check out that new movie."

Scooter re-read the letter closely, and he smiled as well. "It does sound like a great idea. Let's get packing now!"

 

[The Count]

That's a rully nice touch there Sara... Bringing it up to speed, and tieing in the offer to get Scooter a part in MWoO. Look forward to whatever's next.

Chapter Fourteen

Early Springtime - 2004

They piled out of the van, and made their way up to the theatre. It had been awhile for all of them, and Jerome had never been here at all.

"So this is the famous Muppet Theatre, huh?" He asked, running a hand through his thin hair.

"Yep. Lots of chaos went on in this place." Scooter opened the door, and a rubber chicken came flying out over their heads. Sara caught it with her hand, and laughed.

"And I'm suprised it's still in one piece!" She said, laughing. Tossing the rubber chicken back inside the backstage area, the four of them started inside.

"Sorry! Sorry!!! Now where did that rubber chicken go?" Fozzie was asking, as he came up towards the back door. He picked up the chicken, and he heard someone laughing softly. "It wasn't that funny, it just got out...of...control." He slowed down, and looked upwards at the old bear, laughing softly.

"You still play with that old rubber chicken, son?" She said, a bright smirk crossing her face.

"MA!" He nearly strangled her in a hug, then he reached behind and gave Doc a huge hug as well. "DAD!!!"

"Hello there, Fozzie! WAH-HA...wow...you-you've got quite a grip there!" Doc managed to sputter out as Fozzie was tightly hugging him.

"Sorry, sorry there Pops." He smoothed out Doc's waistcoat, and smiled brightly. "What brings you two here?"

Scooter stepped forwards, and handed a letter to Fozzie. "Where's the Chief, Fozzie? I gotta talk to him."

"SCOOTER! Oh, wow! You're back too!! AND SARA!!!" He grabbed both of them, and hugged them tightly as well, then he grabbed both Emily and Jerome with his other arm, and hugged them all at once. He was estatic to see them all.

"Yeah...yeah, glad to see you to, Foz." Sara grumbled, as she tried to get out of his hugging grip. "Fozzie? Fozzie! FOZZIEE!!" She finally yelled, as he quickly let go of her.

"Yes?" He asked, innocently.

"Thanks for letting go of me. No one's blown up the bathroom today, have they?" Sara asked plainly.

"No, not that I know of." He replied back.

"Good. I'll be back, in a bit. And Scooter, hun? Ol' Chiefy's probably up in his office, if he's not down here at his desk." Sara replied, before she hurried off to the bathroom.

Scooter went upstairs to Kermit's office, and knocked on the door. Kermit opened it up, and the two of them began talking about the movie. Fozzie, on the other hand; took his parents, and went out onto the stage to show them how well the theatre looked since they had been last. Well, since Emily had been last, Jerome had never come out there before.

"This is quite a nice place, son. I'm suprised I've never been out here before." Doc replied, looking around the place; with wide eyes.

"Well, it looks a whole lot better then it did last time, honey." Emily said, smiling. "Oh I see you fixed up the stage finally. Had that huge hole that kept reopening. I think that huge brown monster fell in last time."

"Oh yeah. Sweetums fell in, he had Robin in his hand too!" Fozzie replied, frowning a little bit. "That's what caused Kermit to go ahead and find a contractor the next day. Robin almost got hurt. If it wasn't for Sweetums, the little guy might have had a broken leg, or worse!"

"Oh dear. That's horrible sweetheart." She said, as they sat down out on the stage. Turning to Jerome, she smiled a little bit. "You said you'd never been out here before, right?"

"Yes. I've never been in here." He said, with a soft smile on his face.

"Then what was that red velvet in the ring box?" She asked him, with a wry smile on her face.

"Oh...that? Well...uh...it was just something I had laying around. I didn't particularly like that black stuff in the box, so I put it on some red velvet. Just thought it would like nicer." He said, stammering a little.

"You are such a kidder, Jerome." She said, smiling brightly towards him. The night was reaching on, and the three of them told all kinds of stories about the farmhouse, and the theatre.
