The Luke And Feathers RPG

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hey, it's my first RPG on this forum! Yay!

...

Hmm, tough crowd. Anyway, this is your basic, run of the mill, RPG. Nothing special. It's just about my RP characters Luke and Feathers and your characters going about there buisness. Nothing special. At least, not yet...

Anyway, if you wanna join, here's the sign up form.

And here are my characters...

Name: Luke
Species: Pretztail
Text Colour: Dark Red
Personality: Luke is a friendly Pretztail who likes to play video games most of the time. He does have an adventurous side though.

And...

Name: Feathers
Species: Buzzenge
Text Colour: Olive
Peronality: Feathers is a smart, adventurous Buzzenge. She's incredbly rude to people, but she's a nice bird underneath it all.

Have fun.

[Macaraca]

Name: Ben
Species: Pretztail
Text Colour: Blue
Personality: Is funny, friendly, stupid but loves to play games

[Lexicon]

Guess who?




Sidney.


Name: Sidney Syrupent
Species: Sour Syrupent, believed to be the first.
Textcolor: Maroon
Personality: Sidney is bitter, aggressive and loves to pick fights with other male pinata. However, he is one of those puke-worthy rogues who suck up to the ladies. The lady he's most protective of - and I'm using the term 'lady' very loosely here - is Nancy Newtgat.
Other: He does NOT have a crush on Nancy, he's just expressing his gratefulness because she gives him somewhere to live and repairs him after fights.

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: I'm starting. Feel free to join in.

Luke and Feathers, on first glance, aren't the kind of people that you would expect to be friends. Mainly because they seemed so diffrent. Luke was a kind Pretztail who was polite, and always willing to help people.

Feathers, on the other hand, was rude, insulting, and generally unplesant to be around.

So why were they friends?

It was something they coudn't explain.

Luke poundered this as he walked through the woods back to his home. He had been friends with Feathers for quite a while now. But he often felt that they could be a bit more then just friends.

He had addmited to Feathers that he had loved her the night before they had thier first (and only so far) child, but he hadn't done anything more then that.

Maybe it was time to take it a step further?

To be honest, he wasn't sure.

Feathers, who was at her own house, had the same thoughts going through her mind. She did like Luke, but she wasn't exctuly sure if he wanted to be more then friends.

Still, he did say that he loved her. But he had only said it once. Had it been a spur of the moment thing? Or did he mean it?

She coudn't be sure.

[Polly Pretztail]

Name: Polly Madison Olivia Pretztail (Prefers to be called Polly)
Species: Pretztail
Personality: This girl is a tomboy and loves kicking butt, yet she is very friendly. She can be very hot-tempered and destructive when she wants to.
Text-Colour: Magenta
Other info: She is a princess but has no idea about it. Her family was killed by assassins when she was a baby but she and her older sister, Panna escaped alive and they were separated. Polly was found by Paulie and she grew up with him as her "big brother". She is about 14.

[OmniMaster]

Name: Jacob
Species: Pretzenge
Text Colour: Sienna
Personality: Shy, kind, nice, loyal
Other Info: He was somehow sent back in time. He is the future son of Luke and Feathers, and will try to help them raise younger Jacob.

Jacob landed by an Oak tree.

[kaffable]

Name: Beth buzzenge
Species: Buzzenge
Text Colour: sienna
Personality: like feathers can be horribly rude but is a good friend and likes a joke

beth saw jacob and, although she tends to avoid oak trees landed next to him
hiyah!

[OmniMaster]

OOC: Jacob's colour is Teal in this RP.

Hey.

[kaffable]

OOC: do they know each other?

beth grinned at him

[OmniMaster]

OOC: I guess.

[kaffable]

ive not seen you in a while she giggled madly, obviously she still had a big crush on him

[OmniMaster]

Jacob raised an eyebrow.

[kaffable]

she blushed and started stammering er...i...um...
well say somthing!...
the sun is nice today
great now we look stupid...

[OmniMaster]

Jacob blinked.

I guess...

[kaffable]

beth sighed slightly
hmmm... maybe he would go on a date with me....

jacob maybe one day...when youre not busy...you could...go-go out with me?

she cringed and looked away

OOC: wow unexpected from beth

[OmniMaster]

Sure.

Jacob smiled.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Luke came open to them.

Hello Beth, can I talk to you about somthing.

He spotted Jacob.

Who's this?

[kaffable]

beth nearly screamed
instead she let out a high pitched giggle
yay...

erm....youre son?

[Luke The Pretztail]

What? He's not my son. He's only a few years old, this Pretzenge happens to be fully mature.

[kaffable]

erm..okay sorry bout that

this is jacob...and yeah i can have a word with you

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hmm...So he's another Pretzenge named Jacob. Hmm, looks like I'm not the only Pretztail to have romance danced with a Buzzenge.

Anyway, I need to talk to you about Feathers. You see, I really like her. I mean, really really like her. But I'm not sure she likes me in the same way.

[kaffable]

well...i dunno want me to ask her? i wont say it straight up ill try to get it out of her

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, you could ask her. If you want her she's at our house. It's just down the path from here. I'll keep your friend company.

[kaffable]

i think we can be more than friends...
beth wondered off dreamily to find feathers

[Luke The Pretztail]

Meanwhile, Feathers was walking through the forest looking for some a Candary or two to eat. Spotting a little yellow against the green backdrop, she shot at it and gave it a hard peck.

A few moments later, there was Candary candy all over the floor.

Yes! Feathers One, Candary zero.

[kaffable]

beth found her straight away (she smelt the candary candy)
feathers! hi!

OOC: gotta go sorry

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: It's Alright.

Oh, hello Beth. Want some Candary Candy?

[VPfan]

OOP: I'll join.. Oh, er, I added an extra field to the form. Makes a lot of more sense

Name: Marty
Species: Macaraccoon
Gender: Male
Text Colour: Orange
Personality:Friendly and adventuros, though easily intimidated if put in a really, REALLY dangerous situation.

Marty was wandering around the island, just the normal day for him.

[kaffable]

um...okay she took some candy so... i was talking to luke earlier

[Lexicon]

My name is Sidney Sebastian Syrupent.
Some shun me, others run from me and others still call me a sleaze.
Nobody considers the fact that I am a doting stepfather, although I do think the annoying little twits should learn to take care of themselves like I did.
I may just be bitter because my own parents began a new life without their sour son, but it is more of a possibility that it is simply the nature of sours which causes my lack of empathy.
People around me have considered having me tamed and married to my housemate, but I do not wish to tie myself or Nancy to a loveless marriage. Besides, my instinct to hunt lower pinatas may eventually come back to bite myself, Nancy and the twins where it hurts.
Speaking of hunting, I was on my way home from teaching the kids the most effective way to kill a bunnycomb.
"I hate killing. Killing is mean!"
"Bunnycombs and stuff are people too!"
What I found particularly annoying about these two was the fact that they had strong moral values for children so young.
"It's essential for your survival. Your mother isn't going to be there forever."
"We will just eat candy and stuff like everybuddy else."
Tough pair. Every day, I find myself gaining more and more respect for that newtgat woman. She must have a terrible time dealing with these two.

Name: Frank
Species: Fudgehog
Text Colour: Lime
Personality: Strong, likes to destroy everything bad.
Other info: Drives a Corvette Convertible, black, Z06

[OmniMaster]

Jacob frowned at Luke. He would explain, but he didn't think Luke would believe him.

[Luke The Pretztail]

So..Err...To be honest, your the first Pretzenge I've seen apart from my son.

[OmniMaster]

But I AM you're son.

Jacob began to explain how he came back from the future.

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Okaaaayyyy...This isn't somthing that happens everyday...Wait, if your from the future, could you tell me if me and Feathers happened to well...You know...

[OmniMaster]

Jacob thought for a while.

It'll happen either today, tomorrow or the day after. My memory isn't all that good...

[Luke The Pretztail]

I suppose your right. besides, you're only about Five years old at this point in time, so I suppose you woudn't really remember. So, what are you gonna do? Do you have any plans?

[OmniMaster]

Not really. I actually forgot why I came back...

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Right. Hmm...Maybe you should ask Beth if you could stay with her. You seem to be pretty friendly with her, I'm sure she woudn't mind.

Of course, I would let you stay with us, but you cominging inot contact with your younger self might cause some sort of time paradox that could destroy the universe as we know it. At least I think so...I don't really know anything about quantum mechanics...

[OmniMaster]

Jacob blushed slightly.

In my timeline, people came into contact with their past selves all the time.

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Oh...Well, no danger of quantum paradoxes then. So doy want to stay with me? Oh, Feathers lives with me too of course...But I'm sure she'll be okay with it.

[OmniMaster]

Sure. It'll be hard explaining to her, we both know how she is.

[Luke The Pretztail]

I know. But that's why I like her. Well, I more then like her...

[OmniMaster]

What, love her?

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Yes. I do love her, but I'm not sure if she feels the same way about me...

[OmniMaster]

Hm...How did she react when you told her?

[Luke The Pretztail]

Oh, well I've only told her once, and that was five years ago. Just before we had you, in fact. I haven't said it again, and neither has she. But I DO love her. Even if I never say I do...

[OmniMaster]

I know how you feel.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Really? Well, we both are in relastionships with female Buzzenges. If you like Beth that way, that is.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob blushed again.

I don't know if I do or not.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, you'll know eventally. Just give it some time.

[OmniMaster]

Ok....are we going, then?

[Luke The Pretztail]

What, to my place? Yeah, let's go.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob waited for Luke to lead the way.

[Luke The Pretztail]

It's this way. Come on. Luke said, heading down a nearby path.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob stared down the path. He suddenly realised he was behind and flew to catch up.

[Luke The Pretztail]

I see you're good at flying. Tell me, are there any more Pretzenges like you in the future?

[OmniMaster]

I don't think there are...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Oh, that's a shame. At least that makes you that little bit more special.

[OmniMaster]

If there were though, it'd be hard romancing. Even I don't know what I need to eat to be ready to romance.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hmm, I never thought about that...Well, you don't have to romance to be with someone.

[OmniMaster]

I know, but still...

[Lexicon]

At last, we arrive home.
Nancy is an excellent housemate... mostly because she's gone most of the day.
I put the terrible twins in front of the television and retired to Nancy's bedroom for a nice long loaf until the lady of the house - and I use the term 'lady' very loosely - returns from her ridiculous shift.
Then again, at least she has a job...

[P&PParrybo]

Time for a test. Time to see how mean and rude Feathers is to Plamingo.

Name: Plamingo
Species: Parrybo
Gender: Male
Looks: Regular
Info: A mean, rude, short-temper parrybo, but could be nice sometimes. He has a tendecy to crash into things.

Plamingo was sitting on a branch and looked at Feather.

Now there's an ugly site...then again, Buzzage do have nack for being born ugly.

[bearz unlimited]

Frank was driving around in his Corvette. Of course, at 195mph.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hang on a second Beth...

Feathers turned to where Plamingo was perching.

Hey you multicoloured freak if nature! I may not be the nicest looking bird in the world, but at least my coloring provides decent camoflage! Why else do you think your species eat fruit? If you were carnivorus, your prey would see you coming a mile away! You'd never get to eat anything!

Feathers turned back to Beth

Sorry about that.

[kaffable]

no your right! i hate the way we get told where ugly! buzzenges are alot smarter than parrybos... or else we'd all be wiped out by eglairs... i i'd hate to stick out like a sore thumb! she looked at plamingos feathers

[Luke The Pretztail]

Execatly! I'm suprised no Pinatas actullay pray on them. anyway, you said you wanted to talk to me about something?

[kaffable]

oh.... she thought back, she had been side-tracked by the obnoxious parrybo. oh yeah! well i was talking with luke and he said.... well he seems to really like you... i wondered if.... you like him too

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well...I like him as a friend. But I have had these...Well...Feelings...Recently...

[kaffable]

beth smiled i know what you mean... she thought of jacob go on...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well...Uh...I think...Well...I...You know...Love him...

[kaffable]

beth smiled well... the thing is he told me he loves you back!

[Luke The Pretztail]

He did?...Really?...Wow...When did he tell you this?

[kaffable]

just then... want me to tell him or you? beth was really excited

[Luke The Pretztail]

I'd like to tell him...But you can come. I think he's at our house. Let's go!

[kaffable]

yay! ill follow you she follows. when they get there she giggles madly because she see's jacob there

[Luke The Pretztail]

Anyway, here's our hou-

CRASH!

...Ow...

Opps...Sorry foxy...I wasn't looking where I was flying...

It's alright...Why the big rush?

Well, Beth told me everything you said.

Oh...Really...

It's alright! The truth is Luke...Well...I love you...

...I...Love you too...

They stood up, looked at each other for a moment. Then hugged.

Sorry it took so long to admit it.

It's fine...I took to long as well...

It's fine...

[kaffable]

aww...that so... she heard somthing snap and turned round to see to hungry eyes of a eglair *gulp* err....feathers we gotta problem

OOC: feel free to play the eglair

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: Kay.

Er, Luke. I'm gonna haveto let go now.

Why?

Luke turned around to look.

Oh...(I'll handle this.)...Hello. Can I help you with somthing?


Yes actullay. I want you to leave so I can break these Buzzenges open and eat their life candy in peace.

...Sorry, but I don't really want you to do that.

Why? What possible reason do you have to not want me to eat these tasty birds.

Well, she... Luke pointed at Beth. Is a rather good friend of mine. And she... He pointed at Feathers. Means more to me then anything else in the whole universe.

Nicely handled.

Thanks. Now, leave before I break you open myself.

[kaffable]

beth looked impressed but stayed behind feathers

look i dont think thats going to happen so stand aside

[Luke The Pretztail]

No. I think you should leave. NOW.

[bearz unlimited]

Frank jumped off a hill that was near Luke, Feathers, Beth, and the Eaglair, and he smashed into the Eaglair.

[kaffable]

beth was relived wa-? thank you!

[Luke The Pretztail]

Don't think so.

Luke jumped in the air and hit the Eaglair's head with his Tail.

[bearz unlimited]

OOC:^^Ummm....Frank already destroyed the eaglair.

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: Post clash. Sorry.

Huh. That was unexpected.

I could've taken him.

Sure you could... Feathers said, sarcasticly.

[kaffable]

beth laughed i thought you were bluffing to be perfectly honest

[Luke The Pretztail]

Bluffing? I wasn't bluffing. I was prepared to put my life on the line there. If you could call fighting a hungry Eaglair life threatning...

It is if you're a Buzzenge.

Ah, true...

[kaffable]

yeah but i dont useually fight i hear them coming half the time.. i can fly fast. thats kinda the cowards way out but i'd rather be a coward than an eglairs lunch

[Luke The Pretztail]

Anything is better then being an Eaglair's lunch.

[kaffable]

yeah thats right... so where were we?

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, me and Luke just confessed our love for each other...

Yeah...So, er...What now?

...Not sure...Hmm...

[kaffable]

me... either... beth looked round

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Er...I could make us some fried Cluckle legs if you want...

Hmm, I haven't ever tried Cluckles. Alright foxy, you can make us some. just try not to burn it or anything. Like the last time you made dinner.

Hey, the box said ten minutes! I thought that applied to boiling it in the pan OR microwaving it. It wasn't labled correctly.

[kaffable]

lolz

beth laughed and followed them inside

[Luke The Pretztail]

Luke opened the fridge. You guys can do what you want while you're waiting, I could be awhile.

He started looking in the fridge.

Okay...Ah! here we go...

Luke read the packet. "Grill for 15 minutes, then serve."

Alright easily.

Luke turned the stove on, place the legs on the grill. Then set the timer for 15 minutes.

[kaffable]

i hope he's got it right...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Don't worry. The fire department's on speed dial, in case he does get it wrong.

[bearz unlimited]

"Well, that eaglair got damaged."

[Luke The Pretztail]

This taking way to long. Maybe if I turn it up to max...

Fwoom!

...Nope. Dosen't work.

Thud.

Feathers flew in to find Luke lying burnt on the floor.

Oh no. Beth, call the Kentucky Fried Cluckles restruant, we're having takeout...

[kaffable]

okay... she dials the number yeah ill take two bonus buckets

i dont go there much so i only know the name off one meal so i have no idea what beth just ordered

[taneer]

Too late to join as Sparks? everyone kows him pretty much. i don't think i need to describe him

Sparks is a the restaurant as....yeah you guessed it...the fry cook!!!
"Hey sparks! Delivery boy ate the cluckles and he's sick. get this to the buzzenge just wst of here!"
On it!
Sparks takes the cluckles and delivers it, but to the wrong buzzenge
"I'm telling you i didn't order a bucket of fried cluckle!

[kaffable]

beth looks out the window to see this hey you looking for me?

[taneer]

Sorry for the misunderstanding sir
I'm a girl
Sorry for the misunderstanding then
He flies to Beth with the chicken
Ok here's you're chicken. that'll be 25 coins

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hang on!

Luke came to the door.

Beth, your a guest, I insist that I pay. Okay. That's 25 choclote coins. Oh and here's a five coin tip. Thank you...

Luke sees Sparks.

Sparks?! What are you doing working as a delivery boy?

[kaffable]

beth laughs sparks! i didnt reconise you!....youre a delivery boy?

[taneer]

"Actually i'm a fry cook, the delivery boy got sick. I mostly need to money to pay off...err....debts"

[kaffable]

beth grinned how much do you get paid... it cant be much youre too small to do much

[taneer]

"Have you ever seen me cook? I'm a machine when it comes to working with fire. I get paid a bit more than minimum wage. I'm getting 10 coins/hour. I'm getting paid overtime for this, which is the only reason i did it."

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Okay, whatever works for you. Thanks for the food.

[kaffable]

well suppose thats good, i think im going to take over the family buisness... my mum owns a cafe out of town, i work as a waitress there, i guess it's okay

[Luke The Pretztail]

It does sound like a good job. At Ten coins an hour, I might just get a job there myself...

[taneer]

"Can you stick your hands in a grease fire?"

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Point made.

Hey, have you got the food yet?

Feathers came to the door.

Sparks? I never expected to see you doing a job like this....

[taneer]

Join the club he says under his breath
Let's just say i have debts to pay off. most involving fire and things that insurance doesn't cover

[Luke The Pretztail]

Ah...Understood. We would ask you to come in, but you're probrobly busy.

Yeah, plus we haven't had everthing fireproofed.

Feathers!

Ha ha, sorry...

[taneer]

"Yeah I have time. this delivery's not expected to arrive here for another 20 minutes. I'm much faster than the other delivery boy. can you guess what he is?"

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, you can come in. There's enough Cluckle here to make me a resident ten times over.

Yeah, you can join us. And I don't suppose the regular delivery boy would happen to be a Buzzenge would he?

[taneer]

"No, shellybean. But I think I'll take you up on your offer"

[Luke The Pretztail]

Alright, come in. But a Shellybean? I would've like to have been there when they hired him...

I agree. he must get complained about alot. Poor thing...

[kaffable]

a shellybean? beth looked shocked and there fast?

[taneer]

"No, that's why the cluckle isn't supposed to be here for 20 more minutes. I feel sorry for him sometimes"

[Luke The Pretztail]

I know, he shouldn't have to work at a job that isn't really suited to him.

Luke took a Cluckle leg and bit it.

Mmm...

[taneer]

"Yeah, well I should get lost before my boss catches on. see ya!"

[kaffable]

goodbye! she waved and tucked into a cluckle making a cluckle butty

[Luke The Pretztail]

Bye! You can come back whenever you want.

Feathers took a bit of Cluckle and bit it.

Hmm...

You like it?

It's different. I suppose it makes a change from Candarys.

[taneer]

"See ya!"
Sparks gets back to work
What took so long?
Well the cluckle wasn't due for another 20 minutes so i took my time
Whatever just get back to work
Fine...
Can't wait to get outta this rat's cellar

[Luke The Pretztail]

Ohh, fries! Feathers said, taking a bag of fries.

Ohh...Salty...Just how I like it.

[taneer]

Okay Sparks your shifts up!
Thank you! finally!
Sparks flies back towards Luke's house

[Luke The Pretztail]

Still go a bit of Cluckle left...I suppose we could tame some sour Macaracoons for fun.

Everyone glared at Luke.

Or not...

[kaffable]

hey sparks! we got some cluckle left!

[taneer]

"Sure, why not."
Sparks has some of the cluckle crumbs on the box
"Hmm, that's good"

[kaffable]

thats the first time i'd had it and, suprisingly, its pretty good

[taneer]

"Same. You're right though"

[Luke The Pretztail]

It was quite nice. At least I have some alternative to Candarys now.

Well, at least I won't ever have to worry about having to fufill my resident reqirements.

[taneer]

"It's too bad it's bigger than me, or i would eat more"

[kaffable]

you should try pugdeon! its nice but stay away from sparrowmints or you will have to walk around with a big, spazzy heart on your head, but hey it's a change from candary

[Luke The Pretztail]

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you Sparks, me and Feathers are...Well...In love.

It's true.

[kaffable]

beth smiled it's great!

[taneer]

"Congratulations then. I'll come to the wedding if your having one"

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Hey! We're not getting married! At least...Not yet...

Is that a hint?

Maybe...

[taneer]

"Well, whenever."

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, you can come. If we ever decide to have one. You too Beth.

[taneer]

I'll be back in like 30 mins i'm going to dig through some boxes for a disc i need to upload vids from my phone

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: I'm gonna be done for the day in a few minutes anyway. No worries.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob leaned against a wall.

Got together then, huh?

OOC: Maybe a female Pretzenge could come back from the future?

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: Maybe...

Oh! I almost forgot. Feathers, this is...But...

But?

Well...This is...Our son Jacob...From the future.

...

...

...Really?

...Yeah.

...Okay...

Feathers walked up to Jacob.

Prove to me that you are from the future.

[OmniMaster]

At your wedding, which will be a while away, one of your cousins will catch the bouqet.

Jacob smiled.

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Okay...I'll keep that in mind...

You have cousins?

Yes. Lot's of them. In fact, my extended family is probrobly large enough to conduct a succsessful raid on Pinata Central.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob's wings flapped slightly.

Believe Dad now, Mom?

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Yes, I believe him. Anyway, why did you come back in time? To tell us about somthing that's gonna happen? Or somthing else maybe?

[OmniMaster]

Jacob scratched his head, trying to remember.

I don't remember why or how I came back. Side effects of time travel...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hmm...Is there some way we can jog your memory?

[OmniMaster]

I don't think so...

Baby Jacob crawled into the room. Jacob looked down at him.

OOOOOOOOOOOH YEEEEEEEEEAH. I came back to help look after baby me.

[Luke The Pretztail]

...You came back to look after Yourself.

Feathers cocked her head.

Are me and Luke not good parents in your time?

[kaffable]

beth was watching, not the conversation, but str=aring at jacob's eyes

[Luke The Pretztail]

You really like him. Don't ya?

[kaffable]

beth suddenly turned bright red shhh!

[Luke The Pretztail]

Don't worry, he can't hear you.

[kaffable]

okay, i do but i dont know whether he likes me, he doesnt seem to and that makes everything i say awkward

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well...Maybe when you two get some time alone, you should ask him if he likes you.

[kaffable]

erm...okay if i dot bottle out again *sigh* i could ask him to the dance of romance, it's next week

[Luke The Pretztail]

Sounds like a good idea. Hmm...Maybe I'll ask Feathers if she wants to go...

[kaffable]

yeah you should, i've never been but it's supposed to be the best night of your life!

[Luke The Pretztail]

Sounds, well, good. Okay, I'll ask her. And hopefully, I'll see you there too.

[kaffable]

hopefully! she went to jacob

OOC: guess i gotta wait for omnimaster

[Luke The Pretztail]

OOC: Could be a while...

[taneer]

Sparks is asking questions about time travel to Jacob. his eyes ligh up in his fascination, however eventually he goes over to Beth and Luke

"So, did you hear bout the dance of romance? I've heard it's really cool."

[kaffable]

yeah i really wanna go! beth said excitedly

[Lexicon]

I awakened to the sound of Nancy's screaming.
Ugh, I was having such a wonderful nightmare too!
Of course I answer as any good roommate does.
"What is it, dear?"
"The dance of romance is coming up soon and I STILL don't have a date!"
I honestly do not understand why those sweets cared so much for romance. Dirty little things... It seems to be the only thing they care about these days.
"...Sidney, do you mind helping me with this?"
For some reason, I was actually beginning to like hearing her voice... There's just a certain charm about that whiny tone and gross mispronunciation of vowels.

[taneer]

"Lemme guess, with the pretzenge?"

[kaffable]

erm....yeah but shut up about it... wait come every one knows? i didnt say anything

[taneer]

"No, just me. i heard you. don't worry your secrets safe."

[kaffable]

good.... i thought i was being obvious... she watched jacob then turned to sparks who are you taking?

[taneer]

"Uhhh...This is kind of embarassing...no one. I'm not going."

[Lexicon]

I slithered out of the bedroom and into the kitchen, where my tiny housemate sat with her head restng on one hand and a glass of milk in the other.
"Should I ask Ned? He always looks so depressed and lonely..."
"He's half your age and he hits himself with a stick. Shall I say more?"
She drew a deep breath, then sighed so heavily I could almost swear that I saw a piece of candy fly from between her painted lips.
Poor thing. Many a time I had found myself considering transforming her into the first sour newtgat as I am the first sour syrupent.
However, the sweet little fool seemed like the type of unstable woman who would lose her mind completely before the transformation could complete.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Not going? That's a shame...Aren't there any female Dragumflies that you like?

[Polly Pretztail]

Polly was taking a nap under a tree.

[OmniMaster]

Jacob stretched and put his paws behind his head. He sat and leaned against a tree.

[kaffable]

beth went to find jacob, she saw him under a tree JACOB! hiyah!... i was thinking are you going the dance of romance?

[OmniMaster]

Jacob looked up at Beth.

I guess. Why?

[Luke The Pretztail]

So, Feathers...

Yeah?

Um...Would you like to go to the dance of romance with me in a few weeks time?

...Hmm...Maybe...

Maybe?

...I mean, alright...

Great. Why so hesitant?

Well, we haven't really been out together.

Don't worry, it'll be fun. Trust me.

Alright foxy, whatever you say...

[Polly Pretztail]

((Kaffable, Omnimaster, do you think Jacob and Polly could go to the dance together? I think it would make a little twist.))

[OmniMaster]

OOC: Ok, but you'd have to come up with the twist. I haven't got a clue. o_o

[Lexicon]

((Hehe, I haven't got a clue about any of this... My storyline doesn't even interweave with you guys' until ages away.))

Nancy rose to her feet without bothering to place the now-empty glass into the dishwasher.
"I'm going out there, wish me luck."
She's... going out on her own again? Oh no. This is bad news.
Knowing her, something is bound to go horribly wrong.
"Not if I can help it. I'm going with you."
Her delicate little features twisted into that crinkled-nosed expression she does to scare the living daylights out of her friends, enemies and small children.
"No offence, Sid, but having a sour syrupent attacking all my potential dates would be a little... offputting."
Before I could catch the silly lust-crazed amphibian, she had already bolted.

[OmniMaster]

OOC: I'm bring in a Twingersnap character, Theresa and Theta. By the way, why did you call Brendan and Britney a B'ouble?

Theresa looked around. She was awake, while Theta was asleep. Her brother was the lazy one.

[bearz unlimited]

Frank was heading to the beach, with his car in dune buggy form.

OOC: As seen in a different RP!

[taneer]

"Well there are some that like me, but i want someone who likes ME not the fact that i can make flashy displays of fire."

[Luke The Pretztail]

To be honest, any Dragumfly who's only intrested in you for your pyrotechnic displays isn't worth being with.

======

Meanwhile...

Flying high over another part of the island, was an absolutly huge flock of Buzzenges. One couldn't tell by looking at them, but they were all part of the same family.

This flock was lead by two Buzzenges, who were leading the flock at the very front.

Alright! We're heading west! Tell the stragglers to keep up! the male shouted to the flock.

Are you sure we should be heading west? I've been told that all the best Candarys are too the south.

Ah! But at this time of year, it's warmer in the west then it is to the south. And we both know that Candarys love warm areas.

...Yeah, you're right! West it is then...

Sir!

A Sparrowmint flew up to them.

Ah! my scout! have you heard anything intresting?

Well yeah...You see...It's about one of your daughters...

Really? Which one?

Well...You've probrobly forgotten about her...But her name's Feathers...

Both of the Buzzenges paused for a moment, the memorys of thier daughter coming back to them.

We remember her. What about her?

Well, apparently, she's in love with someone.

Really? Where did you hear this?

At her house, I was there!

Okay, we ought to go and check this out? Where does she live?

Just to the north of here, near Pinata central.

Okay, thanks for telling us. EVERYONE! Change of plan! We're heading north!

[taneer]

"Exactly, that's the point."

[Lexicon]

((I call them a B'ouble because they're a hybrid... you know, like a pigxie. It's pronounced 'Bubble' and is a portmaneau of 'Bubble' and 'Double' since they're semi-aquatic and there are two of them.))

"Ella Elephanilla is always swarmed with requests... Woe is me, nobody wants to ask an ugly old newtgat to a dance for the young and beautiful!"
"..I do have to admit you're looking pretty good for someone who is approaching forty."
That was the main problem with her - she believes at thirty-seven that she is too old to have any luck whatsoever with men.
I wouldn't have it any other way, that pessimistic attitude keeps her easy to manipulate and emotionally dependent on me.
Her pretty face transformed into another hideous frown.
"Heck, even Brendan and Britney have other children begging to be taken to the dance."
Sidney, time to whip out your classic back-handed comforting technique.
"Look on the bright side, dollface. At least this way no-one will find out that you can't dance."

[taneer]

"So, once again as usual i'm single because I won't degrade myself to material love."

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well, I'm sure you'll find someone eventully. Your a really nice person you know, I'm sure there are Dragumflies out there that will love you for that.

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo was flying around.

Ahh...The day is good. I, thankful, don't see Perry yet or that ugly Buzzarge. Yep...life sure is good.

Plamingo crashed into a tree and fell down.

Owww....Maybe except that tree that jumped in front of me.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Anyway...

Luke's ears twitched.

Hang on...

What?

I can hear something...Something big...

Big? How big?

Real big...Hang on...It's getting closer...

How close is it now?

Well... Luke went over to the window to look outside.

Real close.

Feathers went to take a look.

Oh no...

What could they see? An absolutly huge flock of Buzzenges heading right there way.

How did they know I live here?

What? You know them? How?

Well...You see Luke...They're my family. All of them.

...Jeez...

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo saw the flock of Buzzenges.

Great...a herd of uglies. But at least this doesn't involve me.

Plamingo saw a banana on a tree. He flew over to it and ate it.

Mmmm...not bad...not bad at all.

[Luke The Pretztail]

What excatuly are your family - all 15 million of them I might add- doing here?

I'm not sure. Maybe they just came to visit? Or...Maybe they found out that I'm romanticly involved with you...

Right...But why come and see you? Do they visit every Buzzenge when they get together with someone.

No, I think they're only visiting me because my parents always considered me to be their favorite child, and my parents just happen to be the flock leaders.

Ah, I see. Hang on they've stopped. All six billion of them. What are they doing?

HEY! You rainbow coloured freak! We aren't ugly!

YEAH!

Huh, they've stopped to yell at that Parrybo. Must of said somthing to annoy them...

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo was sweating.

(This is not good.).....Umm...I'm sure we can work this out...When I mean ugly, what I actually mean is...ummm...good-looking in your own special way...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Pfft...Did you really think we would fall for that?

We're smarter then most other Pinatas you know.

YEAH!

So, your gonna say sorry for what you just said, or you'll suffer the consequnses.

YEAH!

...Guys, you don't have to say "Yeah" after I finish my sentences.

SORRY SIR! JUST TRYING TO EMPASIS THE POINT.

Good.

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo rubbed his back of his head.

Yeahhh...I kinda DON'T do apoligzing, but I'll give you bananas if you leave me alone. They're the best one around.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Bannanas...BANNANAS?! We don't eat bannanas, so what makes you think that we want your ones?

YEAH! WHAT MAKES YOU THI-

GUYS!

SORRY...

Right, I'm giving you one more chance. Say sorry now, or you're gonna find out what it's like to be pecked by a whole flock of buzzenges.

[P&PParrybo]

Okay okay...no need to be violent here..I'm so...I'm sor...sor..sorry...Dang, how does Perry make it so easy.

[Luke The Pretztail]

That's better, now don't ever let us catch you insulting us like that again. Alright guys! On to Feathers' home!

YES SIR!

Are your family always like this?

Yeah...Annoying isn't it?

A bit...

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo sighed and flew off.

Well...Looks like someone's touchy...I suddenly have this thought that a buzzenge might have a romantic interest with a Pretztail...Dang, if I see that happen, then I'm convince that the world's going insane..

[Luke The Pretztail]

Here's a thought, how are they gonna react when they find out that I'm a Pretztail and not a Buzzenge?

Goodness, you're right. I hope they take it well. Just be glad you aren't a Candary.

There were several loud thuds as the Buzzenges started landing in the area around thier house. A few minutes later, there was a knock at the door

That's probrobly my parents. You stay out of sight until I introduce you. Kay?

Kay.

Feathers went over to the door, took a deep breath, then opened it.

Hello Feathers.

Hello.

Hello Dad. Hello Mum. What brings you here?

Well, we heard you have a boyfriend, and we thought we just come and introduce ourselves to him, and, you know, welcome him to the family.

Could you show us who the lucky Buzzenge is?

Alright...Luke, you're up.

Luke came to the door. He instantly started sweating when he saw the amount of Buzzenges watching him.

Err...Hello...Mr Buzzenge, and...Mrs Buzzenge. I'm...Luke...Err...Pretztail...And...I'm...In love...With...Your daughter...

There was silence as everyone stared at Luke.

...Something tells me that this isn't good...

[Lexicon]

As I sat coiled around the mother of my emotional equivalents of children listening to her complain about her imaginary ugliness, I caught the deliciously naughty twins sneaking out of the lantern with a flutterscotch net in one of the mouths.
Yes, my darlings... Cause some chaos.

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo landed on a tree, out of earshot from the Buzzenges.

Hmph...Buzzenges...Think they could push me around just because they're bigger than me. Why...If I was their size, I'd teached them a lesson...

[Luke The Pretztail]

More silence, it was becoming ver unnerveing. Luke was sweating buckets.

OH FOR GOODNESS SAKE! What's wrong with a Buzzenge like me being in love with a Pretztail?

Well...It's a little...Odd, honey...

Yeah, I'd always imagened that you'd end up with a very handsome Buzzenge. Tell me, could you not find a Buzzenge good enough for you?

No! I'm not in love with him because I coudn't find a good enough Buzzenge, I really love him.

Really?

Really.

Alright. Are you sure you woudn't like to introduce you to-


No!

Oh. Fine, fine...

[Lexicon]

"Hey look, a flutterscotch! Quick Brendan catch it!"
I spat out the net and made an ugly face at her.
"No Britney that's mean."
Britney said something really smart-alecky like she always does when she doesn't get what she wants all the time.
"We eat fudgehogs!"
Dangit. She always does that. Sure, I say really smartytail stuff sometimes but she is the biggest smartytail in the whole world. But I still love her cause she's my sister and my best friend ever.
She looked up in the tree and did the silly smile.
"Look, a parrybo. Let's throw rocks at him!"
"Stop being mean, Brit. We're only allowed to throw rocks at sour crowlas!"

[P&PParrybo]

While Plamingo walking, he bumped into the old Crowla witch with the boil on her beak.

Oh great....You're out here in public...

Why hello, you delicatable Parrybo.

Oookay...Wait...Could you do me a favor?

Oh course...anything for you.

The witch was fluttering her eyes. Plamingo just looked at her.

Umm..Okay...I need you to make me the size of a Buzzenge, so I can teach those birds a lesson.

Sure...Can I get a kiss for it?

Eww...No...

Then you'll pay me.

...Course...

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well...Luke is it? I'm glad you picked my daughter to be your girlfriend.

Tell me, how did you meet?

Well...Er...Funny story. You see, I acidently ran into a fir tree she was living in. She fell on me, and...Well...Things have only got better from there...

Well...Good for you...Tell me Feathers, are you planning to marry him?

What? No. We only just confessed our love for each other today. It's a bit too soon to be getting married.

Alright, but how long have you been friends for?

Oh, about...Five years, why?

Well, isn't confessing your love kinda the same as asking someone to marry you?

I don't think it is...

It is in our flock. And since Luke is techniclly part of our flock, I guess he did ask to marry you.

When did I become part of your flock?

Techniclly, you became fpart of it when you made friends with Feathers.

Sigh...It's true...

Oh...Right...

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo got a potion for the witch.

That Crowla gets stranger and stranger every stinkin' day...

Plamingo drank the potion and turned in to an Buzzenge.

Wow...I feel big already.

Plamingo looked into the lake and saw himself.

Crud...That Stupid witch turned me into a Buzzenge...This can't be good.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hey, Buzzenge! One of the flock members said to Plamingo.

It looks like the leaders daughter is about to be proposed to by that Pretztail! Come and see.

[P&PParrybo]

Great...now the world IS going insane...maybe this is some kind of Buzzenge joke.

Plamingo flew over with with the flock member, can into several trees.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Alright, there they are.

Well...Err...I didn't know I was part of this flock...So er...i didn't know...That...err...

What Luke is saying is, that since he didn't know that he was part of the flock, he dosen't consider his marrige proposle valid.

Thanks for saving me. Luke wispered.

No Problem. Feathers wispered back.

Okay...Well, since you do know your part of the flock now, why don't you confess your love again and make it offical?

Yeah, you should do that!

YEAH!

Well...Er...

Well...You see...Er...

We don't want to get married just yet.

More silence.

Crud...

[P&PParrybo]

Plamingo nudge on of the Buzzenge.

Pssh, hey...are they serve bananas here?

[Luke The Pretztail]

Bannanas? The Buzzenge cocked his head.

We don't eat Bannanas, we only have Candarys. Are you not feeling well or somthing?

[P&PParrybo]

No I'm okay...I just tried it recently (like for my life) and I thought it tasted okay...You should try it sometime (Candarys....gross....).

[Luke The Pretztail]

Right...

The silence was unberable this time. Luke was sweating so much that it was a wonder he didn't drown.

Well...That's okay...

Phew...

But if you don't mind, we'll just stay here until you decide what to do.

What?!

Well we wanna be here when the moment comes.

I don't think you understand dad, me and Luke probroly won't be getting married for a long while yet.

So? It's not like we need to be anywhere. We can stay as long as we like. Right everyone?

RIGHT!

[P&PParrybo]

Ummm...this whole Buzzenge loving a Pretztail thing...How long is this joke going for? It's like you're serious about this or something.

[Luke The Pretztail]

It's not a joke! From what I've seen so far, it genuinly looks like that they're in love with each other.

[P&PParrybo]

THIS FOR REAL!?(That proves it...Buzzenge are definaly not right in the head.)

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hang on love...Who's shouting back there?

Every Buzzenge in the flock pointed at Plamingo.

Explain yourself!

[P&PParrybo]

Hey there...new member...I'm Plamin-- I mean...ummm...hold on...hmmm...yes...I'm Bob...Bob Buzzenge(Bob?...I have to come up with better names...)

[Luke The Pretztail]

Alright Bob, what do you find so unbelivable about our daughter being in love with a Pretztail?

Hey, they're distracted. If we run now, we might be able to get out of here and start a new life in the desert. They won't look for us there. Sound good?

We don't need to run. Things aren't that bad. I'll get us out of this, don't worry.

[Lexicon]

I heard a loud whack and Britney laughing like a stupid idiot.
"Bullseye! Why don't you try?"
She was throwing rocks at the crowla witch!
Mommy will be soooo mad if we got turned into Lickatoads...

[P&PParrybo]

Ummm..I just...I thought pinata should like pinatas of the same species, ya now...(That Pretztail must be blind to every love a crazy pinata like a Buzzenge).

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The witch went over Britney

And why...exactly are you throwing rocks at me.

[Luke The Pretztail]

I don't suppose you've heard of the Pinata species called the Pigxie have you? They are the result of two pinatas of a diffrent species who love each other. Why can't it be the same for Pretztails and Buzzenges?

[P&PParrybo]

Geez...Fine, we don't have to make a debate about it.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Good, I'm glad you understand. Anyway...

he turned back to Luke and Feathers.

So, you don't mind us staying here do you?

Well...You don't have to stay here, we'll just let you know when we decide to get married.

Aw, come on! Where's the fun in that? We want to be here when it happens.

Yes...But We really can't accomidate a whole flock of Buzzenges.

No problem, we'll just roost in the trees out here. We don't mind being exsposed to the elements.

...Look, I don't think you understand, I love all of you, but I really don't want you all breathing down our necks until we decide to get married. Understand?

Oh...Alright, that's fine.

We can still come to the wedding right?

Yes, if we decide to get married, we'll invite you to the wedding.

ALL OF US?

Yes, all of you.

[P&PParrybo]

(Wedding? I hope I'm not a Buzzenge for that long...Wakkos....)

[Luke The Pretztail]

Alright we understand. Anyway, we'll give you two a bit of space. Remember, call us if you need anything.

See you soon love.

Okay. Bye you two. Bye everyone.

BYE.

OKAY EVERYONE! LET'S GO!

With that, the Buzzenges took off, and flew away to the south.

Wow, that was intense.

I did say there were lot's of them...

Yeah, you handled that pretty well...Thanks. Luke said, he went forward and gave Feathers a hug.

Anytime. Feathers replied. hugging him back.

[P&PParrybo]

(I gotta get outta here and find that witch. These Buzzenge are a bunch of nimrods.)

Plamingo tried to sneak away the pack.

[Lexicon]

When Britney threw more rocks and giggled like a crazy person I yelled real loud to say sorry to the crowla lady.
"Sorry ma'am... My sister is really annoying and she likes to hurt everyone. Please don't turn us into lickatoads - our mom is a newtgat!"

[Luke The Pretztail]

Hey, that Buzzenge -Bob was it- is still here.

He was the one who thought our relatoinship was a joke wasn't he?

Feathers walked over to him.

excuse me, I thought some of the things you said about me and my friend were incredbly horrible. I demand that you say sorry. Now.

[P&PParrybo]

Hmm...I should forgive you...I guess I will...

[P&PParrybo]

Ummm....I would...but..but...I'm busy with something now.... (Where the heck is she...)

[Luke The Pretztail]

You can't be too busy just to say you're sorry. Come on, say it.

[Lexicon]

"Thank you so much, ma'am!"
Ewww, Brendan's icky manners. Is he gonna save a princess or something? He talks like a king!
I was only having fun, but he wrecks everything.

[P&PParrybo]

Okay sure...Sorry and whatever...

Plamingo was looking around.

[Luke The Pretztail]

Alright, apologie accepted.

Fine...Hmm, why are you acting so shifty?

[P&PParrybo]

*sigh*...could you two keep a secret?

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Yeah...

...Alright, what is it?

[P&PParrybo]

I'm actually a Parrybo turned into a Buzzenge by a very ugly witch....My name's Plamingo...

[Luke The Pretztail]

...Wait...Plamingo?...Hmm...I think I know you from somewhere, but I'm not quite sure...

Wait, why did you turn yourself into a Buzzenge?

[P&PParrybo]

I didn't want to a Buzzenge. That stupid hag turned me into one by accident. I wanted to as big as one. You Buzzenges allow push birds like me around.

[Lexicon]

With the position we were in, any pinatas peering in through the window would be scratching their heads wondering why the first sour syrupent would fall in love with a sweet newtgat.
The truth is, there is nothing going on between the two of us.
We're just dependent on eachother.
I protect the kids, she keeps a roof over our heads. Plain and simple.
Sidney... you are a delectably manipulative snake!

[Luke The Pretztail]

Well...Er...Sorry about that. But if your the same Parrybo I think you are, people only push you around because you tend to make hurtful comments about them.

[P&PParrybo]

Well...My friend, Perry did say I was being harsh on pinatas lately.
