[The Count]

DD it! Mr. Deadly, man the cannons!
Vhat will we use for ammunition?
Since we're out of moo cows...
Stevie: Cow? Awwwgh! *Pulls lip over his head.
Load up the rotten eggs, that's what those spambots deserve!
UD: She's ready to go.
Then have at it. Fire!
Yes! Ah-ha! Fire 1, 2, 3 ! Blast 4, 5, 6! Oh I love counting casualties of var!

 

[The Count]

*Going over submission entries. Hmm, we've got enough to put together a decent roster. Just waiting to hear from Kathy, and if she'd want to keep Apt 2 or move back into Apt 6 to finalize the 2013 list.
Shame Scooter's going back to stay with his uncle J.P. and his sister as vell.
UD: I also feel wobegon at the departure of young Miss Nora.
It's not like she won't ever be seen again... She works at the Coming Unbound bookstore you know.
UD: Yes, that reminds me, I need to skulk around to get there to peruse the Blank Slates. Or if they need my help in taming the monthly outburst of salamanders.

Ru: Piggy--Piggy, honey, just wait a little bit--
Piggy: Open up! I DEMAND you open up this apartment building this INSTANT!
Kermit: Piggy, sweetheart, they're still trying to get things ready for us to--
Fozzie: And Ed is working really hard to get the names up on the mailboxes....
Piggy: I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE MAILBOXES! When are they going to open up the building?!!!
Ru: Sweetie--
Kermit: Piggy, just wait a little--
Piggy: HI-YAH! Take THAT!
Fozzie: Oh dear! (runs away!)

*Sorting through replies. Hmm, guess Rhonda heard about another rat possibly moving in. Dunno if I should take the Martians myself. Guess I'll wait to hear from Beth first about another potential new roomie though.

Been a crazy week - new roomie? Did I miss something?
Cookie: We get new roomie?
Beth: No I think Ed might though? I'm confused

 

[The Count]

Ga! Beth, you're here. Erm, didn't you get the message about resubmissions? You should send yours in, if you plan on staying for another term or otherwise.

Edit: And the roster's been posted/sent. Hope Piggy won't batter down any more doors trying to get back in.
*Dials out to get some dinner delivered as us spooks are famished.

 

[RedPiggy]

Cotterpin (throws arms up in the air): Hooray!

Kelly (dragging luggage on a roller thingie): 2013. New Year. New Dreams. *pauses before the door and plays with her new Jareth pendant from charlie* Pretty.....

Cotterpin: Are the dogs coming too?

Kelly: They're gonna stay with my brother this time around. You and I are set for big things, 'Pin, mighty big things.

Cotterpin (grins): I heard. You convinced him to move back in.

Kelly (shrugs): True love never dies, just gets fossilized. Lucky for me, I am a hardcore student of Jurassic Park.

Cotterpin:

Kelly (sighs happily): Still ... I'm thinking of a major undertaking here. Being a nurse is fun but my heart is a geek and I yearn for technological opportunities.

Cotterpin: Oooooh ...

Kelly (smiles): Gonna need some help, though. I need a deal-maker, a business elite ... someone with mad financial skills.

Cotterpin: The Count?

Kelly: Well ... well ... actually, that didn't really occur to me. Still, I've heard there was a weird crash over by the University of Hensonville. Might pay to check it out....

 

[Lola p]

Grace: *Lugs a final bag into room 12*
Whew. New year... new room... Yay.

Abby: *drops stuff into the room she picked out*

Yay! I'm so excited!

Don Music: *Moves Muffin away from his piano* Gah! Get out of here, you stupid-

Abby: HEY! Stop insulting Muffin!

Don: Or what?

*The two of them start going back and forth, arguing*

Grace: *Facepalms* 5 minutes in... and they're already fighting....

Ok. Guys... break it up.... We have to unpack everything.

*Runs over and starts to unpack stuff in her room*

Abby and Don: *Glare at each other and start to do the same*

 

[Ruahnna]

Ru: OMG! I'm going to go down there and KISS Ed for getting the dorms open!
Fozzie: Not if I beat you to it! (stops) Um.... That didn't come out right.
Kermit: (grinning, open-mouthed and delighted) We know what you mean, Fozzie. Heck, I'll kiss him if it comes to that.
Ru: Better not tell Piggy.
Kermit: I could say anything to her right now and she wouldn't even notice. She communing with her closet and I don't think anything would upset her now.
Ru: (blinking) Oh. Oh...then...do you think we ought to tell her?
Fozzie: Tell her wh--oh! Oh! (puts his hat over his mouth and talks through it) I thought it was a secret.
Ru: Fozzie, honey--it can't be a secret long if they're living here, can it?
Fozzie: Oh. I guess not. When are they coming?
Kermit: Well, the contractors are done, so their room is ready, so...any time, I guess. Ru? Have you heard from Gonzo?
Ru: (shaking her head and looking at her phone) Um, no, but Rizzo texted me a little while ago.
Kermit: What did he say?
Ru: Er, something about waiting for the cannon to be loaded onto the scooter.
Fozzie: Our Scooter?
Kermit: No--a scooter bike. (Has a sudden thought and looks at Ru for confirmation.) A scooter-bike and not Scooter-the-gofer--right?
Ru: (doubtfully) Um, right--I think. I haven't seen Scooter. I don't think he's moved in.
Fozzie: (still talking through the hat) Um, is Gonzo brining the cannon here? To our apartment?
Ru: Well, I suppose, but he'll have to keep it in his room. It can't sit in the living room.
Kermit: No. He can't keep it in the living room. Maybe I'll get him to store it down at the theater again.
Fozzie: Um, Ru?
Ru: Yes, honey.
Fozzie: Um...what's going to happen when we watch television?
Ru: What do you mean, Fozzie?
Fozzie: (looking down) Well, now when we watch movies, Kermit and Piggy usually sit in one recliner and you and, um, I...well...we, um.... I was just wondering.
Ru: (smiling and putting her arms around Fozzie) You and I are still sharing a recliner when it's movie night, sweetie. I found another recliner to go with the two we have.
Kermit: Oh, good. It won't be as cool as our recliners, but I'm glad you found one for Gonzo and Rizzo.
Ru: (smiling) Um, funny story. I contacted the store where I bought our recliners and--believe it or not--they had another one just like them.
Kermit: That is unbelievable. I can't believe they wouldn't have already sold out of them after all this time. I mean, a nice lime green tween recliner like that...wow.
Ru: (dryly) I know. I could hardly believe it. I guess not everyone has good taste like us.
Fozzie: (leaning against Ru and letting her rub his ears) I'm glad We're still on for movie night.
Ru: Me too.
Fozzie; Um--how long are Gonzo and Rizzo going to stay.
Ru: Um....well, um, we sort of put them on the lease. So...I guess they're staying all year.
Fozzie: What do you think Miss Piggy will say?
Kermit: That's the million-dollar question, isn't it?
Fozzie: Whew. I'm glad I don't have a million dollars. So, when are we going to tell Miss Piggy they're moving in?
Ru: Um--
Kermit: Er--
(The door to Apartment 5 bangs open.)
Gonzo: Hey, guys! A little help, here! Ol' Betsy seems to have put on some weight--
Ru: Um, Fozzie--I guess the answer to your question is...any time now.
Kermit: Maybe she'll be too busy in her closet.
(There is a loud cry from the girls end of the apartment)
Piggy: RU! KERMIT! Why is Gonzo bringing his cannon into Moi's apartment?!!
Ru: (tagging Kermit) You first!
Kermit: (blanching) Me? Why me? You tell her--she won't karate-chop you--she needs you.
Ru: Not right away. I already ironed everything!
Kermit: (blustering nervously) Well...well...go BAKE something! Quick!
Ru: (running) GOING NOW!

 

[LinkiePie<3]

after a long day of unpacking

Angie: *gives Link his hand held mirror* Is it true that we're getting a dog? 8D

Link Hogthrob: *staring in the mirror contently* A dog? No. I didn't say we were getting a dog. Did I?

Angie: *giggles* Actually...

Link Hogthrob: Actually?

Angie: You did mention we're getting a poodle-- which is a dog, of course. *beat* We're getting a dog! <3

Link Hogthrob: What?! No! *face-palm* What I meant was that my girlfriend Luanne Poodle is going to be living with us tomorrow.

Angie: Oh...we're not getting a dog...your girlfriend is a poodle...

Link Hogthrob: *smugly* That's right. <3

Angie: Excuse me, I need to go on a very, very long walk... *stomps out the apartment*

Link Hogtrob: *lounges on the sofa, still facing the mirror* You, my pretty boy, are irreplaceable. *kisses the mirror and smirks*
