[theprawncracker]

*back on ground, finally* Alright, finally. Time to go back to the Moppets. *begins walking, and walks right into a tree* ...Well I've started things off better...*walks off again*

(OOC: Ok, so NOW I'm officially leaving Jack walking back...)

 

[RedDragon]

<Still on phone>

Voice: We've been talking for hours...

Mairin: If I'm annoying you I can hang up.

Voice: No, I'm just giving a status report.

Mairin: I'm only teasing.

Voice: As all women must.

Mairin: That is a gross generalization.

Voice: You're right, I'm sorry.

Mairin: <She smiles> You are forgiven.

Voice: Oh good. I'd hate to be on your short list again...

Father: *reposnding to Mother's questian about Rosa* Rosa! How did you...Oh was it Rosa who took me to the hospital? She's just an old...thingame...aquantence...thing...you wouldn't know her. *gets into Mother's car, parked outside the magic school, and starts the engine* Shall we?

Meanwhile, across the ocean blue...

Hevej: Ack, now that were a little more of a challange than usually, escape from bonds on a bed in a magic hospital...now, the next port of call is...a little place in Mexico where I heard there was a young lass I be looking for...

 

[Vibs]

- in the twin's room the twins are peacefully sleeping in their beds. So we'll cut to... -

Rosa: *sitting on a random corner wrapped in a grey woolen old quilt, begging for money* Hello mister, would you like to give a few pennies to a poor... uh.. excuse me miss, I have five children and an ill cat to take care of I need could you... *sigh* This is all that Moppet man's fault. Oh sir could you give...

man: .. Get outta my way you filthy gutterlass! *kicks the jar infront of Rosa so it cracks and the few pennies in it fall out of it*

Rosa: Hey how dare you!! ... Oh never mind. *collects pennies from the ground - spots black boots infront of her - looks up...*

Hevej: Are you ... Rosa?

Rosa: ... yes that is my name? Who.. eh are you and how come you know me?

Hevej: I be Captain Hevej and you be the lass I need..

Rosa: *raises eyebrow* how's that?

Hevej: I need you to kidnap somebody for me puppet, and I promise ye - once you're done ya ain't gonna be begging for money in a gutter no more.

Rosa: ... I'm listening..

Viq: VIBS! what was that?

Vibs: what?

Viq: it felt as if somebody was about to agree on kidnapping father!

Vibs: ... poor kidnapper.

 

[DanDanStrawberry]

*DanDan bursts through door*

DanDan: Did I hear someone say rump steak?? If yes, why not visit DanDan's "Steak House" where you can eat all the musical instrument-shaped steak for under ten dollars! Why not try the guitar ribs...yummy yum!

 

[Vibs]

Viq: ... hey look, DanDan's here!

Vibs: ... don't move, it might go away in a few minutes...

Viq: steakhouse?

Vibs: Viq, when he says steeaaak he meeans babymeeeaaat...

Viq: what? Oh no way, you know me and DanDan we go way back. Right Uncle Auntie? He ain't gonna eat us..me anyway.

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *pulls up outside the Moppet house* ...as I was saying, we'll brew a little tea and have a little sit down with the little kids. Some father and son time with Viq. A little Father/Daughter chat with Vibs. A brother and sister/borhter/brother-in-law talk with Dandan. You know, good decent, fatherly behaviour.

Narrator: And it was not a coincidence that Father just happened to be starting to act in an endearing fashion just moments before his kidnapping...oh, sorry, did I give the plot away there?

Hevej: Now, lass, this is the helm. That's the sails. Below deck be the potatoes, peeler, pots, and pans. Alliteration that was. Now listen up, if ye prepare us some dinner, I assure ya this boat will skim faster 'en a unicycle being peddled by a one-legged man...that's fast, by the way. *turns the boat steering thing*

 

[DanDanStrawberry]

Eat babies?? Viq, you silly nephew, I've never eaten any babies in my loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... *several minutes later* ...ooooooooooooooong life! When I say I'm going to eat you I'm actually saying that I want to eat....erm...and chew! Yes...that's right...

 

[Vibs]

Rosa: ... cook? WHAT do you think I am?! Look here, pirate. I am no ship's cook, I only want your money and the pleasure of kidnapping Moppet and get my revence. But if you want some food, you'll have to cook it youself.

_____

Viq: Hey Uncle? I... well... I have something I'd like to talk to you about. But Vibs, eh it's like a man thing..

Vibs: *raises eyebrow* MAN thing?? *looks at DanDan dressed up in a blue glittering dress* ... whatever it is, I think I'd better leave.. *does*

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *steps in the front door* Hello my dears...*walks into the kitchen*...Perhaps I should ring Wilson's and let them know where I've been...oh, I'm sure their do fine without me, after all, it's not as if I'm their only employee. They have Suzan and Mr Harvey and...he's on vacation...well, they have Suzan and Suzan and Suzan and....Mother! Where is the tea? What, I lose my memory for less than a week and you move everything around...*opens a cupboard* Ahh, there it is...I knew that, must have forgotten...

--

Hevej: You want me to cook? Fine. You steer. *stomps below* Women...that'll be the only problem with using a jilted lover of Moppet's to go kidnap him...it just has to be a woman...
