OK. I. Just. DIED.


I honestly laughed sssooo hard, I had to hide my face in a cushion to stop the neighbours from banging on the wall to shut me up.

Epically hillarious. Pure WIN.


And how could you not mean the nosebleed trope? That totally cracked me up, like a million times over. It was totally the first thing my awakened perverted mind thought of and I died all over again.


I just gotta say:

SHEEN: Kiss me, my big-headed…HEY! What the heck?! Jimmy, what is your dog doing to my leg??


FREAKING GENIUS! As if the whole thing weren't funny enough, we discover Goddard is effected as well.


And the whole FL/FS moment freaked me out just a little. I was actually a little scared for her. He gives the impression she wouldn't be able to put up much of a fight against him if it came to that, if ya know what I mean *waggles eyebrows* LOL



Anyways, I just wanted to say how much you should be worshipped as a writing Goddess and ask you to take it easier on my poor heart next time. I'm frightened to watch my satire shows now in case I over exhaust it laughing.

You made my soul giggle.

HEY!!! <_<



I think Mara just means when authors write totally out of character stuff into their fics and it just gives everyone a chance to have a laugh over it.

She didn't mean actually pointing and laughing at all people who write.

HEY!!! <_<


Poking fun can be good for you, Em, as long as it's not done spitefully :thumbsup:

EDIT: Ya, exactly what Kaz said. I'm not making fun of fanfic authors, merely godawful characterization.

Thanks for the last installment Mara. I loved it. Can't wait for the next one! :D The part in the Love Potion room ROCKED. Though I still can't believe Cindy and Libby fell for each other! ;) The part where Jimmy had to be all seductive and stuff was so hilarious! But do you know which part was a bit scary? The one where F. Sheen was coming closer and closer to F.Libby. That got me a bit worried...Still, the whole thing's awesome!!!!! <3

Mary will SQUEE


Oh, I did way more than my fair share of squeeing this chapter.

SHEEN: Oh flower of my heart! Apple of my eye! Grapefruit of my hand! Miscellaneous fruit of my nether regions! I can resist you no longer…you’re so smart and blonde and talented!


lol nether regions...

**He drops Cindy, who lands with a thump on the dusty floor. Sheen pirouettes over to Jimmy, who is busy tickling Carl’s arm a few feet away. He rests his elbow on Jimmy’s shoulder, then flashes him a come-hither smile**
SHEEN: (seductively) Hey there, big boy…
**Jimmy looks over, and his mouth falls open**
JIMMY: Sheen…you’re so tall…
SHEEN: And your nerdy little genius routine makes me so hot…
**Carl dashes forward after his cocoa idol, knocking Jimmy straight into Sheen’s arms in the process. There is a moment of breathless silence as their eyes meet**
SHEEN: (purring) James…
JIMMY: Sheen…I can’t stop thinking about you…
**Sheen leans in, his mouth millimeters from the other boy's**
SHEEN: Kiss me, my big-headed…HEY! What the heck?! Jimmy, what is your dog doing to my leg??


JIMMY: Ooooh guys…don’t you wanna come play with me? I have all the desirable qualities in a mate! I’m youthfully rubicund and obstetrically capacious!
SHEEN: I have no idea what that means, but I want me a piece of that!
**Jimmy turns and scampers away, swinging his hips from side to side in an over-the-top imitation of female decadence**
JIMMY: Ya, that’s right, come ‘n get me…


My life is complete.

I meant for it to be a girly, damsel-in-distress kind of sound, not a "black girl" scream. I have no idea what a black girl scream would even sound like. LOL. But I did add it in at the last minute; maybe I should have given it more thought.

In regards to the "too black thing", on the show Libby is portrayed as the very stereotypical "sassy black woman". I don't necessarily like it, but I go along with it.



~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =


Haha, that makes sense... sort of. XDDD It's only one word, so it's okay, lol.

OMG THEY ARE PLAYING A COMMERCIAL REVOLVING AROUND CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES.

THAT IS ALL.

I guess. Since they're all 11/12 it's sort of hard for me to see her stereotype thing... lol.

Most likely the love potion room. They're probably a slash hater.

*shakes head at people who can't accept the odd and unusual*

Yes boo to the naysayer, or would it be in this case the creepy-sayer, or even more specifically the creepy-writer!

I don't really like slash *ducks at rotten eggs and tomatoes*. That being said, it's just an opinion, and I don't think it's really creepy given the situation. I might have been a bit more irked if 'something more' had happened, but no, I thought it was OK (and I laughed so hard at some parts). *shot*

It was so totally the funniest part of the whole story, lol.

Haha, I'm not a slash fan either, which is why writing this chapter was so ridiculously fun.
And the ff.net reviewer was right...it is creepy, albeit in a very intentional way.

P.S. I'm totally dying to hear Pig's opinion **no pressure**

I can't work on it until my wrist heals, unfortunately. I'm typing solely with my left hand right now and it's very time-consuming.
