Who: Keto, Cerebrum, Wildflower, Jay,
Tree
Where: Medi-Bay
When: 17:10
===========================================
<<Snip>>
"CHRYSLER!" yelled Keto, dropping the Tree
and marching forward, grabbing an ointment bottle off a nearby shelf and
brandishing it, "I'VE GOT A BONE TO PICK WITH YOU!" "And that, my son, is what *I* call
justice," called Cerebrum from behind the Tree.
<<End Snip>>
“OI!” Jay shouted up toward
the Blue Midget cockpit “That’ midget’s repairs are coming
out of the Medi-bay budget!”
“Please, it’s barely
scratched, there’s far more damage to my medi-bay which as it has been damaged
by one of your shuttles that I might add was secured in no way at all making it
very easy for any old moron to steal, the repairs to my bay should clearly come
from YOUR budget!”
“Well ‘any old moron’ I’m
sleeping with the captain so I win” sometimes having your wife in charge
was a very useful weapon, especially as everyone aboard ship was terrified of
her, even Doom Harbinger!
“LEAVE JENNY ALONE!” Keto yelled, changing the
subject quickly “SHES MINE!”
“Please!” said Jay “Been
there , done that…er..no offence Jen”
“None taken” Wildflower
replied, her middle finger raised RIGHT where Jay could see it
“Alright…” said Keto, seeing he was getting
nowhere “You switched Cerebrum’s image with that of the light of my
life!” he waved at Wildflower as he said this, Jay felt physically sick.
“Yes!” said Cerebrum, who,
still playing with the remote control now resembled Mini-Phil, though everyone
was puzzled why Mini-Phil even HAD holo-data. Why would anyone in their right
mind want to recreate him if he died. It was about now everyone realised it was
Holly who’d done it and it made sense.
“And might I add I may be mentally
scarred for life!”
“So whats one more mental scar?!”
Jay replied “You’re mind’s mashed as it is!”
“That’s not the point! The point
is you played a vile trick on us and we demand revenge!”
“AND WILDFLOWER!” Keto added.
“Yeah well goes around comes around”
Jay muttered, “Besides, it was a HELL of a lot of fun!”
the comm. Beeped on the wall and the
panicked face of Alota appeared on screen.
“Jay! Honey…could you come to
the promenade….NOW!?” Jay could swear he could see a giant
teddy bear filling the entire background of the image.
“Er..yeah..” said Jay and
headed for the door “Oh by the way” he said to Cerebrum and Keto “DON’T FORGET
THE FOREPLAY!!!”

head. "Oh dear God that hurt..." he
began, before a frown crossed his face and he leapt to his feet, spinning round and
waving a finger at the Wildflower-lookalike Cerebrum. "YOU! You're not
Wildflower!" "Am I not?" asked Cerebrum,
wondering for an instant if he could gain anything by playing along, and then deciding
it was too risky. Keto might actually fall for it. "No, I
suppose I'm not. I'm Cerebrum." "Why," growled Keto, advancing
slowly, "Do you look like the woman I love, and where IS the woman I love?" "The creature you're looking for would
be in the medibay," said Cerebrum, playing with his black-on-black remote
control as he tried to revert to his normal form.-- Elsewhere -- The lights in the AR suite flickered, then
powered down, leading to screams of loss from those crewmembers who had
decided that the virtual worlds were an easy way to satisfy their
sudden desires.-- Back Again -- "In the medibay? I just CAME
from the medibay! I saw her run past it!" snapped Keto. "No, you saw me running away from you,
like any sane person (or me) would do. Chrysler grabbed her and pulled
her inside, replacing her with me. Oh, and he knows I'm not his
father, by the way. You owe me a refund." "WHAT? YOU NEVER PAID ME!"
shouted Keto, his urge to keep some sort of budget temporarily overriding his lustful
wrath, before he continued, "Wait, you said CHRYSLER grabbed
her!?" "Yup," nodded Cerebrum, frowning
as he tried another button on his remote.-- Elsewhere -- Technicians in the landing bay were
completely shocked when one of the Blue Midgets suddenly stood up and began to
dance a fairly well-choreographed rendition of The Funky
Chicken. Not nearly as surprised as the couple who had taken to the
Midget's back seat, however.-- In The Medibay -- Tara ran out, with a sound
not unlike the roadrunner taking off, with Rufus following close behind. Jay and
Wildflower stood for a moment, staring after them, until the doors
swished shut. "Well," said Jay, "That was
interesting." "Is the Tree in here?" asked
Wildflower eagerly, looking around. Before Jay had a chance to respond,
however, the medibay door suddenly buckled with a resounding boom, then with
a second boom it crashed inwards, causing the two to jump backwards
to avoid being crushed. As the shards of metal cleared from the
air, Keto was revealed, face contorted with fury, the Big Pink Tree
clutched in his arms like a battering ram, supported by Cerebrum. "CHRYSLER!" yelled Keto, dropping
the Tree and marching forward, grabbing an ointment bottle off a nearby shelf and
brandishing it, "I'VE GOT A BONE TO PICK WITH YOU!" "And that, my son, is what *I* call
justice," called Cerebrum from behind the Tree.===================OOC: Tag people. :)...Protecting
