Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[BeakerSqueedom]

Claudia:
So, how are you all?

Bunsen:
Nice of you to ask,
I am doing fabulously.
Just adjusting this little device here.

It remodels the room to a desired theme.
Everything except those days.

Claudia:
(Laughs lightly)
That's great.

Beaker:
Meeeee.
Mee mee mee.
Meep.
(Presses a "test" button, small sparks faintly burn then disappear)

Claudia:
Yeah, I know what you mean!

Dr. Van Neuter:
I'm just here reading a very nice book
and drinking some of your great frappes.
You need to teach me how to make these!

Claudia:
Thank you!
I did not eat my cake last night!
(Eyes the fridge)

Dr. Van Neuter:
Who's stopping you?

Claudia:
(Beams)
No one of course!
(Rushes to get her cake and pours some milk in her cup)

Bunsen:
Well, with all that sugar running through your system--
you are likely to concieve the burden of being diabetic.
Watch yourself.

Claudia:
I only eat sweets in the dorms--not out there.
I'm not allowed to eat much sweets anyways.
That's why I have to bite on a piece of celery when
I see a soda or a candycorn.
(Bites into her cake)
Mmmm...

Beaker:
Mee mee?
(His eyes stalk her plate)

Claudia:
Want some?
(Cuts half for him)

Beaker:
Thank you meep!
(Picks at the cake with his fork)

Bunsen:
Beakie, stop playing with your food.
(Chuckles)

Claudia:
Lay off him!
I play with my food too...
(Picks at her food with her fork too)

Dr. Van Neuter and Bunsen:
(Strangely tempted to get their cakes and do the same)

 

[The Count]

*Receiving Beth and her roomies... Thanks gals, I'm sure he'll enjoy it all.
Count is currently admiring Mokey's artistic prowess and counting not only the stars, but the various locations plotted out.
You know, ve might have to show this to Bryan, it could help with that town planning directory he vanted to put together.

*OOC: Anyone interested in working on that, please contact either Bryan (BEAR) or myself.

 

[Erine81981]

Murray: *sighs*

Anything wrong Murray?

Murray: Not at all.

Then why the sigh?

Murray: That is today's word.

Oh yea. I saw that today.

Murray: It came on today?

Yep. I saw you talking to all those people on the street about that word. *sighs*

Murray: Is everything ok?

Sure. Just sighing for the that's today's word.

Murray: Your funny.

Well.....thanks. *gives Murray's head a good rub* Your funny too.

Murray: Thanks.

I'm going to hit the hay and see you tomorrow after work.

Murray: Ok. Good night.

Good night my bright red furry monster of words. *heads to my room*

Murray: *sighs* What a guy.

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Storyteller: All right, everyone, it's after 11, so time to turn in.

(general chorus of "do we have to?")

Erin: And I've got a midterm tomorrow, and two papers due...
Nora: Ouch. And I'm helping to reorganize the shop's database.
Beige: (sotto voce) Hey, Scooter, want to raid the fridge for that last piece of cake?
Scooter: I would, but we'd be risking Storyteller's wrath.
Erin: Just so you know, guys, I've got dibs on that last scoop of chocolate-raspberry swirl, and Nora wants the dulce de leche. But it's open season on the toffee crunch.

 

[The Count]

*Hears Storyteller's admonition.
Turn into what?

*Sighs.
Ud: You're not doing that just to follow Kyle are you?
No... Got something on my mind.
UD: Well then, why don't you tell me about it.
It has to do with my constant indecision. Maybe I should post it on the bulletin for others to see and maybe help?
UD: That could perhaps relieve some of your current tension.
Thanks... Sounds like Erin would be a great mind to tap for the prefered flavors for each haunter... But then again, that's what I'm unsure of, or at least, it's one of the factors. Oh well, can post it tomorrow. Come on, let's get some sleep.

Both adjourn to their beds for the nightly snooze, the Count already snoring aloud in blissful counted slumber.

 

[BEAR]

(Gifts are left wrapped at room 1's door. They are colorful murals made personally by each member of our gang. Bert made one of the number 6, it's Bert's favorite number, out of bottlecaps. Big Bird made one of the number 4 made out of a variety of seeds. Ernie made one of the number 2, made from soap balls. Snuffy's is of the number 1 made from dried noodles. Cookie made a mural of the number 3 out of the cookies that he wasn't allowed to eat last weekend. And finally, I made my mural of the number 5 out of rocks and shells I found on the beach last summer. They are all beautifully framed for The Count's enjoyment.)

(OOC: I am having internet troubles. Fortunately I was able to go on for a few minutes right now, but I've asked Ed, last minute, to arrange to have some people look after my roomies until I come back in full.)

 

[The Count]

*The Count sprayys the art pieces from Bryan's gang that were made with food with a lacker spray to preserve them, thus killing their edibleness.

*Soon after, a knock can be heard at the door.
Hmm, now who could that be?
A blue furry hand rests upon the doorknob as it opens the door to our room slightly.
Cookie Monster: Yoo-hoo... Anybody home?
Me: Cookie Monster? What are you doing here?
CM: Bryan say he need someone to look after roomies. Me thought you nice person, so me come stay with you and Count for a few days.
Me: Wouldn't you want to stay with Beth? She was your roomie last year.
CM: Well, me try her door first... But noone answer.
Me: Then what about Kyle, he'd probably be happy to have his monster buddies back together again, if even for a little while.
CM: Me thought about that... Maybe if he want to.
*Shrugs. But he probably busy with Grover and all their jobs.
Me: Mmm, I can understand. Well then, bring your things in and make yourself comfortable on the couch. We'll get washed and go out for breakfast to Everybody Eats in a bit.
CM: Oh boy! Me love that place! *He looks at the 3 artpiece he made. Can me please have cookies first?
Me: Huh? Oh, no, those aren't edible any more. But here... *Hands Cookie a slice of pumpkin spice cake with a little chocolate bat.
The devourer of doughy delights hugs Ed in thanks and then promptly downs the piece of Count's birthday cake.

*Ed leaves the room to place a notice on the bulletin board that Bert, Ernie, and Big Bird are in need of temporary lodgings with one of the residents until Bryan returns and asks if someone could please check in on Snuffy in his cave room in Room #29 from time to time as well.

 

[redBoobergurl]

Beth *calls Ed* Big Bird has stayed with us many times in the past, he is welcome to come here. Tell Cookie we're sorry we didn't answer when he came by, we were probably sound asleep.
Mokey *in the background*: I'd be happy to go bird watching with him!
Beth: So just let me know and we'll make room for his nest once again. *hangs up*
Abby: Oh I hope Big Bird comes to stay with us, it would be so much fun!
Beth: I hope so too, but I also hope Bryan is able to be back soon
Wanda: Me too

 

[The Count]

*On the phone... Thanks for calling Beth, hold on a sec...
*Calling to the common room: Hey Big Bird, Beth'll take you in 3 while Bry's out.
The colossal canary cheers up, taking his nest and moving down the hallway to go knock on Room #3's door.

OK, he should be there now. Have a good day cousin. LMK if you need help with the story, could send CM over to lend some insight.
Cookie: Story nice lady Beth writing about me updated?
Me: Not yet, we're hoping for soon though. *On phone: Right Ish?

 

[redBoobergurl]

Beth: *back on the phone* I sure hope to get the story updated soon. Ok, I'm going to go tend to Big Bird now. *opens the door*
Big Bird: BETH! I'm so happy to stay with you again. I didn't think I'd have anywhere to go and Bryan had to leave so quickly and I told Snuffy I thought I was going to be sleeping in the hallway and *Beth reaches up and gently closes his beak*
Beth: We'd never let you end up alone
Big Bird: Oh good. Are we going to make sure Snuffy is ok too?
Beth: Of course
Big Bird: Ok!
Abby: Hi Big Bird!
Big Bird: Oh hi Abby! I forgot that you lived here now!
Abby: Sure do! It's fun!
Red: Wanda and I can help you set up your nest where you had it the last time
Big Bird: Ok!
Mokey: I thought you and I could go to the park later and look at birds too.
Big Bird: That would be great Mokey! We used to do that the last time you lived here!
*Beth stands back and smiles, glad everything is going well*
