Chapter 27. Noodle Incident

[[OOC: There's a smear of what looks suspiciously like maple syrup at the top of the page. Hmm. Also, Derrick is not affected by Mad Libs.]]

Here's a bit of free and sage advice, Sphere.

If someone offers to give you an Awful Waffle, DON'T TAKE IT.

It's not a food.

Let us leave it at that and never speak of it again.

Indeed? It sounds most intriguing to me.

Are you quite certain you cannot explain what it is more clearly?

[That syrup stain gets circled and a line drawn down to this comment]

Do I even what to know what this is?

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

It's not so much that I can't and more like I don't wanna.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Maple syrup. Get Chewie to lick it off.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

I [verb] it's pretty [adjective] to [verb] something called an awful [noun].

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

Ew and his name is TRIBBLE for the last time!

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Look at them teeth. The name Chewie suits him better.

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

...Are you insane? He's a round ball of fur! He's clearly more tribblesque!

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

It's very, very adjective.



I reckon it's pretty swell to VERB something called an awful WE SHALL NEVER SPEAK OF THIS AGAIN.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

He's a round ball of fur- WITH A MOUTH. He's like a mini Wookiee. His name is CHEWIE.

omg we're gonna ping the star wars cast so bad

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

Wookies are tall and can rip your arms out, not a ball of fur that rolls!

HIS NAME IS TRIBBLE!

JUST AS KEIKAKU

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Do you really want to evoke an image of humming hairy balls? DO YOU?

[enchainement.livejournal.com]

but it is a tribble
with teeth
that rolls
Genius found it he should name it

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

But it's a family pet. Why don't I get any say in it?

oh you just HAD to bring BALLS into this

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

You know what you are? You're Tribbleist! Discriminatory towards hairy humming balls! What did the balls ever do to you, man?! They're God's creatures too! They're just living their lives and you gotta hate on em!

WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED!

[enchainement.livejournal.com]

your reason is silly.
let it be a tribble.

ALSO ACCORDING TO KEIKAKU

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Hey, I have nothing against the humming hairy balls, I just don't wanna name our new puppy... thing... after them.

How about Chewball?

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Chewball.

[enchainement.livejournal.com]

he hit his head and it stayed with him isn't that a good enough reason?

[enchainement.livejournal.com]

but tribbles made Genius happy
and calm
that's impossible otherwise.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Aw, now you can't

[...just leave it at that SUDDENLY--she is writing something totally different. Derrick's right; there's absolutely no need to talk about it.]

What do you think of the weather?

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Kibble. Kibble the Surprisingly Tribble-Like Puppy.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

... go on, go and make me feel guilty about it.

You're a cruel woman, Shurimon

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

We're lucky nobody's claimed the guy, yeah.

Chewball? That sounds like candy.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Better than blowing about in a hurricane back upstairs.
