Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[The Count]

*Door opens... My friend senses have been triggered. One of my MC friends is in need of talking something out. Kelly? You need...

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (running out to her little 2-door Geo Metro, panting, jingling her keys): S-sorry, g-guys! Just got here from s-school!

Spike (has Cotterpin on his shoulder, grimacing): Dis some idea of a JOKE? I bet COTTERPIN'S family couldn't fit inside dis car.

Kelly: Not now, Spike....

Spike: Please! *hands Cotterpin over to Caitlyn* You have Little Bit. I'm gonna run ... *to Kelly, whispering* where?

Kelly (shows the red-circled place on the map)

Spike: Right. I'll meet you guys dere. *shakes head* I don't even see how toots fits in dere.... *runs off*

Kelly: Okay, I know this seems a little cramped ... but Digit, Waldo, and Lindbergh can have the back seat. Cotterpin, you stay with Waldo in the center. Cait, you ride in the front passenger seat. We'll make it there alive, you'll see ... well, the ones not blindfolded, that is.

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (peels out of the parking lot a WEE bit faster than she thought): Sorry. *blushes*

Cotterpin (from in the back): Hope you guys enjoyed your birthday party. Sounds like it's gonna be your last.

Kelly: Shut up, Cotterpin! Just look at the stupid map!

Cotterpin (stares at it): You know -- DOOZERS have to MEMORIZE schematics before doing anything. Isn't your instructor teaching you how to be prepared?

Kelly: I swear I'll use you to top my radio antenna! *swerves as another car nearly runs her off the road, says some very cross things*

Cotterpin: Well, I NEVER!

Kelly: So, what exit am I looking for?

Cotterpin: Like I know how to pronounce these!

Kelly (sighs): The one that starts with an "O" or the one that starts with a "G".

Cotterpin: Um, that last one?

Kelly: Right. *finally pulls into parking lot of the place they were going*

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly: Cait? That kinda just leaves us, actually. Like, you and me. *shrugs* Besides, I don't see Sp --.

Spike (casually walks up behind her): You DO realize you can GO da speed limit, right? *cackles loudly* I'll meet you guys inside, den.

Kelly (rolls eyes, follows Spike)

 

[RedPiggy]

Spike (inside the pizza parlor, whispers to Kelly): You don't even LIKE pizza.

Kelly: I'll eat cheese pizza ... I just don't do it often. Besides, I want to be polite.

Spike (sniffs, turning around, seeing Chamberlain in the parking lot): Uh ... OOF!

Kelly (having elbowed him): Remember who we're here for. Be ... nice.

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (mentally counting everyone who pours in): Holy cow. We'll have to invade Italy to feed all these people ... and Spike. *snickers*

Spike: Bite me, toots.

Kelly (grins): Is that a REQUEST?

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (sees wasp nest, goes pale, timidly): Spike?

Spike (casually picks up wasp nest and eats it)

Kelly and Cotterpin: O_O

Spike (grinning): What? I needed a BUZZ!

 

[RedPiggy]

Spike (stands): Ahem. "Havin' a birthday is really neat. T'ank da Potato you're here ... 'cause now we can eat." *laughs*

Kelly (facepalm)

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (blushes, stands): In honor of this birthday, I'd like to begin the first giving of the presents. *looks for presents, then at Spike, hissing* You didn't BRING them?

Spike: YOU'RE da one wit' da CAR.

Kelly (glances at Digit and Lindbergh, laughs nervously, glares at Spike): NOW WHAT?

Spike (reaches in his jacket pocket and tosses her the crystal ball)

Kelly: You expect me to just give over our crystal ball?

Spike: No --- I expect you ta WISH da stuff here.

Kelly (embarrassed): Oh. Right. *makes wish, one box each appears in front of Digit and Lindbergh*

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly: For Digit, since on our first date he mentioned being an MST3K fan, I got a bunch of Rifftrax mp3s. You play them along with your movie so the cast from the show can make fun of them. I've got the Jurassic Park and Transformers ones, myself. They're hilarious. For Lindbergh, I got "Materials and Processing Failures in the Electronics and Computer Industries: Analysis and Prevention" by A. S. Brar and P. B. Narayan. As an engineering title, it just screamed "Lindbergh". Hope you enjoy! *sits down, orders drinks for everybody*
